At an elite academy, family background and money are everything.
Until now, Lin Fei had never worried about that. But after a car-racing accident, he discovered he was living inside an old-fashioned, melodramatic ABO novel set at an elite academy. He was a bit-part character who barely got a mention.
The only thing worth mentioning was that he was the foil to the male lead's best friend, a fake young master who had stolen the other's identity for eighteen years.
Once the real young master returned to his place in the family, Lin Fei lost his family's protection and quickly became the target of malicious bullying at the academy. In the end, he was even sexually assaulted to death. When he was found, his gland had been injected with the pheromones of countless unknown Alphas. It was a scene of depravity and unspeakable horror.
Lin Fei decided this couldn't stand.
To save his own life, Lin Fei found the "real young master" ahead of time, saved his life, and changed his fate. He only hoped that when the two of them eventually returned to their rightful places, the other would be generous enough to spare him.
He waited and waited, until the day he realized he'd mistaken the person.
He still decided this couldn't stand.
Lin Fei packed his bags in the middle of the night and prepared to run.
But someone grabbed him by the nape with one hand.
The gentle, radiant young man wrapped his arms around him and lowered his eyes. A faint trace of red even showed in their purple depths. The pheromones of a top-tier Alpha enveloped Lin Fei, and the familiar, gentle voice made his knees go weak.
"Where are you going, A Fei?"
Lin Fei Collins was one of a kind even at Imperial Academy, known as the "cradle of the Empire's elite." He was the idealized beloved of countless people.
Born into one of the four great families, cold and beautiful as a flower growing high on a mountain, he had been the subject of endless gossip ever since he enrolled.
Thanks to a private agreement, the ABos who coveted the untouchable flower kept their fantasies to themselves instead of parading them in front of him.
What no one expected was that an opportunity would arrive out of the blue.
Lin Fei was not the biological child of the Collins family head. This meant he was about to lose everything he had and become a worthless commoner.
The flower on the mountaintop had fallen from the cliff. If someone caught him before he hit the ground and shattered, they could claim the fragile flower for themselves.
Save him, raise him, keep him all to yourself...
But no one expected that before anyone else could make a move, someone had already plucked the flower and transplanted it into their own garden.
