Summary
“I know what this is,” Zoey whispered, voice shaking with both rage and hurt. “I know exactly what this is.”
“You’re jealous.”
Mira’s entire body went still.
Just slightly.
But Zoey noticed.
She always noticed Mira.
Zoey stepped closer, finger pressing to Mira’s chest—not hard, but sharp enough to make a point.
“Yeah,” Zoey breathed, tears burning her eyes. “You’re jealous.”
Her voice dropped, trembling but vicious in its clarity.
“You’re jealous that someone actually wants me.”
Mira’s breath hitched—but Zoey kept going, unable to stop the spiral.
“You’re jealous that someone likes me—really likes me—and isn’t afraid to show it.”
Mira’s eyes went wide. Red. Shiny.
“And you’re jealous,” Zoey whispered, the words trembling out of her like she’d ripped them from somewhere fragile inside, “that I might like him back.”

Summary
“Zoey had planned to be a good little omega this heat. She normally did, in the planning stages - it was always the execution that got her in trouble. She'd taken books out of the library and bought excessive amounts of study materials along with her normal pre-heat snack procurement. It was just... what was she supposed to do, when the textbooks kept referencing three cases that she had no information on? She had a day or two left, probably, but only six days before exams kicked off in earnest. To the library it was.”
The A/B/O university AU that no one asked for. Rumi and Mira have been together for years, in a world where two alphas being in a relationship is unusual enough for it to impact Rumi’s job prospects. Zoey has spent the last few years on her own, still grappling with a lonely grief that sits heavy without a support she doesn’t think she can ask for. When they stumble into each other's lives, there’s an instant attraction, and it almost feels like they might have found something special – if only all three of them weren’t so incredibly good at getting in their own way.

Summary
“You’re telling me—” Mira began, but Celine cut her off.
“I’m telling you this is them trying to corner her. Executives are already on their way to Tokyo to the satellite office, they were expecting to drive you there so they can press for names, timelines, anything they can use. It hasn’t leaked yet, but tabloids are sniffing.” Celine’s tone carved away every last illusion of safety.
Across the room, Zoey was crouched in front of Rumi, mimicking some ridiculous dance move to make her laugh. And Rumi was laughing—a smile painted on because she knew how to keep up a brave face. Always.
“Bobby’s securing your exit and I’m shutting down what I can. Don’t move until he gets there. I’m already on a flight. I’ll meet you in an hour.”
The line clicked dead.

Seven years after the defeat of Gwi-Ma, Rumi and Mira were sure nothing could shake them up. With their careers as idols coming to an end, pushed by the record label, a final farewell tour seemed like the logical option. That is, until Rumi finds herself staring at two pink lines.Day 4 of Rumira Week: On stage
