* A niche story
* Contains authorial liberties; don't expect airtight logic
* Alpha/alpha romance
* In a way, the heroine has something wrong with her head. The book isn't real.
Fang Ling transmigrates into an ABO world and becomes a female alpha.
Becoming a female alpha is already a shock, but what's even more shocking is that this world is the setting of a male-male novel called The Remnants of Winter, a story of physical and emotional torment!
The main gong is an arrogant alpha from an elite family, while the main shou is a peerlessly beautiful, aloof omega who pretends to be an alpha. The two can't stand each other.
One day, the main shou unexpectedly goes into heat early and hides in a restroom to keep his pheromones from spreading. His eyes are red at the corners, and he bites his lip, desperately trying to endure it. He's waiting for it to pass when the main gong suddenly barges in.
One encounter is enough to leave the main gong craving more, but the main shou has lofty ambitions and loathes their brief affair. The main gong uses the fact that he is pretending to be an alpha to blackmail him, forcing him to become his lover or have his future ruined.
Because he knows the main shou is an omega, the main gong forbids him from touching anyone else. Even talking to someone makes him jealous and angry, and he becomes increasingly cruel to the main shou in bed.
As time goes on, the main gong's possessiveness grows stronger. He breaks the main shou's legs and locks him in a hidden room, subjecting him to all kinds of bizarre punishments.
One winter, the main shou has been abused until he's barely recognizable, his breathing faint. The gong hums as he enters the room. When he realizes something is wrong, he rushes forward, only for the seemingly helpless main shou to bite through his throat.
[His ruined throat lets out a hoarse, broken wail, and he manages to force out a few words: "I... I love you!"]
The main shou is cold and unfeeling, yet a tear falls from the corner of his eye.
[In a hoarse voice, he says, "You disgust me."
He sees sunlight again, but hasn't taken more than a few steps before collapsing in the snow.
The wind turns into a faint, barely audible song, drifting through the air.]
So what do the main gong and shou's tortured romance have to do with Fang Ling?
Fang Ling wipes her face and struggles with all her might to push away the peerlessly beautiful, aloof male omega buried against her neck, inhaling her pheromones.
And of course, at that very moment, someone knocks on the door.
What could be more dramatic than becoming roommates with the main gong and shou?
Why, taking the main gong's place, of course.
Theme: Love comes out of nowhere.
