When Yu Xuanxing was seventeen, two Omegas came to live with her family: one was her stepmother, and the other was her stepsister, Jiang Chenyue.
Yu Xuanxing had been doted on since childhood, and she wouldn't let strangers invade her territory. She treated the mother and daughter coldly.
Jiang Chenyue was gentle, beautiful, and good at school. She outshone Yu Xuanxing in every way. Even Yu Xuanxing's mother favored her and asked her to keep Yu Xuanxing in line.
That only made Yu Xuanxing hate her more. She constantly picked fights with Jiang Chenyue and even forced her to become her lackey, ordering her to bring tea and water, carry her bag, run errands, and do her homework for her...
She also threatened Jiang Chenyue not to tell the adults.
After spending some time together, Yu Xuanxing grudgingly accepted Jiang Chenyue and her mother.
One day, Yu Xuanxing couldn't resist licking Jiang Chenyue, only to get caught in the act.
To prove she wasn't a pervert, Yu Xuanxing had no choice but to confess her secret: she suffered from skin hunger.
Yu Xuanxing thought Jiang Chenyue would spread the news of her condition everywhere. Instead, Jiang Chenyue offered to use her body to ease Yu Xuanxing's unbearable symptoms when they flared up.
She let Yu Xuanxing kiss, hug, and touch her. When Yu Xuanxing presented as an Alpha, Jiang Chenyue even tempted her to mark her.
Basking in Jiang Chenyue's tenderness, Yu Xuanxing fell completely and utterly in love. She loved Jiang Chenyue more than anyone in the whole world, and often lay in her arms, dreaming about their future.
But when their mothers' relationship suddenly fell apart, Jiang Chenyue promptly walked away, leaving Yu Xuanxing heartbroken.
Yu Xuanxing vowed to make that heartless woman pay.

In Jiang Chenyue's senior year of high school, her mother remarried, and the two of them moved into her new husband's home.
He also had a daughter, who was unfriendly toward them.
For her mother's happiness, Jiang Chenyue tried her hardest to win over the Yu family, especially their precious daughter, Yu Xuanxing.
But the Yu household was so warm and loving that Jiang Chenyue both envied and longed for it. Little by little, her pretense became genuine affection.
She wanted to become a real member of the Yu family, so she set her sights on Yu Xuanxing.
She did everything she could to seduce her, and Yu Xuanxing fell for her just as she'd hoped.
Jiang Chenyue felt guilty and let Yu Xuanxing have her way. But Yu Xuanxing's love was so sincere and intense that Jiang Chenyue didn't know how to respond. Ashamed of the ruthless lengths she'd gone to, she anxiously waited for the day she'd be judged.
After her mother's affair broke up the marriage, Jiang Chenyue couldn't bear to stay in the Yu home or remain by Yu Xuanxing's side. So she cruelly ended things and left, though it broke her heart.

Yu Xuanxing worked hard and repeated a year of school, finally getting into the university Jiang Chenyue attended.
But on the day she registered, she saw Jiang Chenyue walking with an Alpha, laughing and chatting as if they were close.
Yu Xuanxing rushed over and grabbed her hand. "What is this? Is this your new target?"
Her voice was sharp, but her eyes were red.
"You're a star high above, and I'm the moon sinking into the dark. After our brief crossing, we go our separate ways."
