REBORN: BETRAYAL AND LOVE (Enigma X Alpha)
Intro
Bright, filled with flowers and laughter. LAN YAN, dressed simply, steps inside, holding a small envelope.
He freezes as he sees the groom — JIAN, his boyfriend of 7 years — standing beside MIE MIE, in a wedding dress.
Jian
Lan Yan... I didn’t think you'd come.
Lan Yan
*Trying to smile*
Yeah, surprise. Guess I still care too much.
Jian
I... I’m sorry. You shouldn’t have to see this.
Lan Yan
*Forces a laugh*
No, go on. I’d love to hear how the guy I lived with for seven years ends up marrying my best friend.
Jian
I didn’t mean to hurt you.
Jian
It just happened... Mie Mie... I’ve loved her for a long time.
Lan Yan
So what was I? A warm-up?
Jian
...I thought I could forget her. I tried with you. But—
Lan Yan
*Cuts him off*
—But you couldn’t. Got it.
LAN YAN looks over at MIE MIE, who won’t meet his gaze. He shakes his head, eyes glassy.
Lan Yan
Congrats, by the way. You two deserve each other.
LAN YAN walks unsteadily, clearly drunk, holding his shoes in one hand, tie undone.
Lan Yan
Cheers to love, huh...? Seven years... What a freaking waste.
A truck approaches. LAN YAN steps into the road, not noticing.
Headlights. Screech. Darkness.

Mist floats over the earth. The air is damp, heavy with the scent of pine and blood. LAN YAN groans as he slowly regains consciousness.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Confused*
...Where...?
He tries to sit up. His head throbs. Dirt smears his robes — not hospital scrubs, but coarse, rough-spun fabric. His hands are scraped. In his arms, a small child cries softly, face bruised and bleeding from a cut.
Lan Yuri [MC Brother4|Omega]
*Sniffling*
...Gege... it hurts...
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Heart clenching*
Hey—hey, don’t cry, little one... I’ve got you...
He looks around — tall trees, chirping birds, and no trace of city lights or honking cars. Just... silence. And pain.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
💭Where the hell am I? This isn’t the hospital... this isn’t even the 21st century...
Suddenly — harsh footsteps approach. A group of young men in ancient garb appear, laughing cruelly.
***
BULLY #1 *snorting*
Look what we have here. The stray mutt woke up.
***
BULLY #2
Still clutching that brat like it’s his. You’re both unwanted — beggars from the temple ruins!
***
BULLY #3 *mocking*
Maybe he’s pretending to be noble again! You hear that last week? Said he was from the capital. Must’ve hit his head too hard.
LAN YAN shields the child instinctively, frowning despite his pain.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
Touch him and I swear, I’ll break your hand.❄️
***
BULLY #1 *laughing*
You? You’re barely standing.
They kick him, knock him down. The child screams. Blood at the corner of Lan Yan’s lip. His grip on the child never loosens.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
~Argh...
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
💭This isn’t a dream. I died... didn’t I? That truck... and now—what is this place? Why do I feel like I’ve been dropped into someone else’s life?
Suddenly, a calm yet commanding voice cuts through the air.
Everyone freezes. A tall man in dark robes steps out from the shadows, his gaze cold like steel. He wears the crest of a noble clan on his sleeve. The bullies instantly kneel.
***
BULLY #1 *panicking*
Y-Young Master Lu! We didn’t know you were here!
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
*Ignores them; looks at LAN YAN*
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
...You. What’s your name?
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Breathing heavily, confused, still holding the child*
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
...Lan... Yan?
Lu’s eyes narrow slightly — recognition flickers for a brief moment.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
...Interesting.

LU XIAO stands tall, his black robes lightly dusted by the wind. His eyes, sharp and unreadable, fall on the bruised siblings
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
You two. Where did you come from?
LAN YAN breathes heavily. His head aches — memories flashing: a bloodied courtyard, a blade in the dark, someone crying out for ‘Mother’—he clutches his head.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Overwhelmed*
💭What is this... these memories… this isn't my world... but this body... these feelings…
He doesn't respond. Still dazed. Beside him, LAN YURI sniffles, holding tightly to his brother’s sleeve. Despite the fear, he speaks up.
Lan Yuri [MC Brother4|Omega]
...We... we came from the old temple. In the east forest. We were staying there...
LU XIAO’s eyes flicker with something unreadable. He looks at the child's torn clothes, the dried blood, the bruises. Then back to LAN YAN, who still hasn't spoken.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
...And before that?
LAN YURI opens his mouth, but LAN YAN suddenly places a hand over his shoulder, stopping him gently. He's still catching his breath, but his voice finally emerges — low and rough.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Hoarse*
...It doesn’t matter. We’re not going back.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
*Raises an eyebrow*
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
Not going back... to the capital?
LAN YAN’s eyes narrow instinctively. His body, even if new to him, reacts to the word ‘capital’ with fear and fury.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Guarded*
You ask too many questions for someone who just watched me get kicked like a dog.
LU XIAO gives the faintest smirk — not offended, but intrigued.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
I was curious how long you'd last before biting back.
He walks closer. The bullies are long gone. LU XIAO kneels slightly in front of LAN YURI, his gaze softer now — but his aura still cold.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
You're an Omega… so young. Yet you stayed by your brother's side even while injured.
Lan Yuri [MC Brother4|Omega]
Yan-ge said never to cry in front of strangers... but it really hurt...
LAN YAN tenses, jaw clenched. LU XIAO stands and studies him again.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
...And you're clearly not a peasant. Your posture, your speech — you were trained.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
I was raised to survive. That’s all you need to know.
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
*Folds his arms, nodding slightly*
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
Very well. Then survive with me.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Wary*
What’s that supposed to mean?
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
*With a mysterious smile*
It means I’m offering you a place at my estate. Safety. Food. A roof.
Lan Yan [Alpha] MC
*Narrowing his eyes*
And in return?
Lu Xiao [Enigma] ML
That depends on whether you're more useful as a guest... or as a blade.
