Ji Yu is a Beta. Not only is his gender stuck in the middle ground between Alpha and Omega, but he isn’t even outstanding among fellow Betas. He goes to work diligently every day, forced to accept tasks others dump on him. He is so ordinary that “honesty” is the only thing that could grudgingly be called a merit.
And yet, such a person married the Top Alpha, Shang Yuanzhou.
Standing at 190cm with an inverted triangle physique and a “public dog” waist, Shang Yuanzhou is a walking hormone who captivates both men and women alike—to say nothing of his immense family fortune.
Everyone says Ji Yu hit the jackpot. They are so consumed by envy that they wish they could stare two holes into him to see exactly what attracted Shang Yuanzhou. Only Ji Yu keeps their contract firmly in mind, understanding that this is all just a show.
As a seasoned corporate slave, Ji Yu isn’t good at much, but he is an expert at following contracts.
- Do not interfere with Shang Yuanzhou’s life.
- Required for acting in public, never initiate physical contact with Shang Yuanzhou.
- Prohibit…
Ji Yu follows every rule and regulation perfectly. However, while living with Shang Yuanzhou, small things begin to trouble him. His undergarments are frequently thrown away as “rags” by the cleaning lady; the water heater in his room breaks every few days; and the air conditioner’s heating always seems to malfunction.
Fortunately, Ji Yu works hard to overcome these obstacles. He washes his clothes as soon as he takes them off, and if the AC breaks, he can just sleep on the living room sofa.
He thought everything would go according to plan—until Shang Yuanzhou was drugged during a business social. The Alpha became so fierce it made the poor Beta’s legs go weak, and a bloody bite mark was left on Ji Yu’s slender nape.
Before the contract could expire, the Alpha—who usually holds the heavens in his hand—tore it to shreds and bowed his head for the first time: “Wife, please don’t divorce me, okay?”
Everyone said Ji Yu wasn’t worthy of Shang Yuanzhou. Only Shang Yuanzhou knew what kind of shameful possessiveness, excessive voyeurism, and suffocating desire for control he harbored for Ji Yu.
Betas are neither as powerful as Alphas nor as beautiful as Omegas, but they are not troubled by pheromones; they are born free. And Shang Yuanzhou hates a Beta’s freedom most of all. From the moment this poor corporate slave met Shang Yuanzhou, his nape was destined to bear bite marks forever—some deep, some shallow, new ones overlapping the old—with no hope of escape.
