Lin Xiangwan’s undergarments went missing.

As the only Beta in an Alpha-dominated world, a sudden sense of crisis washed over her. Her immediate instinct was to seek shelter from Mr. Ling, the man who protected her. Unfortunately, he had just left for an overseas official visit that would last three months.

When a sudden noise echoed from the first floor, Lin Xiangwan hurriedly opened the door, only to crash straight into a cold, broad chest.

It was Ling Shaoyu—Mr. Ling’s only son. He was a top-tier Alpha, a stellar military academy cadet with top honors, and a young man with an active, limitless future. But at this moment, Ling Shaoyu merely looked down at her with a loose, mocking gaze.

She took a step back, her face flushing red from nervousness. The crowd outside the door burst into laughter. Someone even grabbed Lin Xiangwan’s arm, teasing, “Ah, keeping a beauty hidden away in a golden house.”

Lin Xiangwan shook her head in sheer embarrassment. She wasn’t that.

“Who knows,” Ling Shaoyu said indifferently. “Probably just a new servant at home.”

That after, Ling Shaoyu began returning home to sleep every single night.

Even though they lived under the same roof, he was a proud chosen son of heaven, far beyond her reach. Whenever they crossed paths, he merely gave her a detached, distant nod, which finally allowed Lin Xiangwan to let her guard down.

Until one day, she discovered her missing clothes inside the young master’s bedroom.

…

Later, news of Mr. Ling’s sudden death arrived.

Just as Lin Xiangwan was preparing to pack up and leave, she was cornered and pinned down inside the mansion. Someone held both of her wrists tightly, his scalding breath brushing against the back of her neck. For the first time in his life, breaking all his own rules, he displayed an intensely morbid, twisted obsession with something.

“Your employer is dead. Where else could you possibly go?”

“How about you consider me instead?”

This world full of Alphas was like a massive cage. As the only Beta, Lin Xiangwan was glaringly obvious and unique—someone who could easily be captured by the apex Alphas who ruled the world.

She couldn’t change them. So, she could only change herself.
