Your name is You Ji. You are a New Human, an Omega woman.
After the Kingdom of Tia becomes an occupied territory, the Empire's second heir is appointed as its new governor.
He is cold-blooded, domineering, and without compassion. New Humans are forced to become second-class citizens in the occupied territory.
Your older brother is arrested on suspicion of taking part in a terrorist attack.
To save him, you break into the Governor's Office and discover the governor's most shameful secret:
The Empire claims that all its citizens are "pure-blooded humans," yet one of its heirs is a New Human.
And he is an Alpha who cannot mark an Omega... a defective product.
Worse still, his disability makes his heat as long and feverish as Tia's rainy season.
The scent of your lotus blossoms is the only thing that can ease his prolonged suffering.
On a stormy night, the silver-haired governor takes off his leather gloves. His callused fingertips brush the gland at the back of your neck.
"Please me, obey me, make me happy... and I promise your brother will live."
You think it's a transaction.
But you never imagined that from the very first day you stepped into the cage, you had become the prey of another pair of eyes.
The governor's younger brother toys with the jeweled dagger in his hand, venomous flames dancing in his eyes.
His smile is exactly like his brother's.
"I want anything my brother sets his sights on."
If he can't have it, he'll take it.
Only then do you realize that in the years since your parents disappeared, your older brother has overprotected you, leaving you like a delicate flower grown under glass.
The governor wants your obedience. The governor's younger brother wants your betrayal. And your older brother, who watched you grow up, wants your unconditional dependence and love.
You escape the cage they built from jewels, gold, and lies.
You choose a road filled with thorns, one few people dare to travel.
Because you know it leads to freedom.
**
Many years later, sitting in the witness stand at the Kingdom of Tia's highest military court, listening as the prosecutor reads out the charges against the former governor one by one, you always think back to how it all began.
It all began on the night of a bombing.
You were only sixteen that year.
[The male lead is a mad dog, the second male lead is a viper, the third male lead is a flower under glass, and the fourth male lead is a venomous jellyfish. These are all figurative descriptions.]

Reader's guide:
1. The main text is in third person. This is an ABO novel set in the past, with a coming-of-age story. The heroine is very weak at first and will do foolish things.
2. Includes coercive romance, a brothers' love triangle, and pseudo-incest. It's a complicated mix with a staggering amount of melodrama. The main male leads are all virgins.
3. The races are humans and New Humans (ABO), with New Humans as the discriminated-against group.
4. The technology level is between the First and Second World Wars.
5. The story revolves around a bombing. The first part is about saving her brother; the second is about liberating the occupied territory.
6. Do not read this as a reflection of real life!
Theme: Finding hope in desperate circumstances
Youji is going to increase his moves!!!

My brother won't be offline so soon...
My brother's trip will definitely not go smoothly. I wonder who will find Yu Ji first?
It's so cool!!! Finally honest with each other
We have always been dependent on each other, and it is far less difficult to keep secrets than now!!!
Brother and sister are finally reunited, like it!!!
Hahahahahahaha Congratulations to Yuji for completing the first step of escaping!!!
So Sanders is a defective product? Failed to change your destiny?
Yuji's map area has expanded in every sense. Firstly, he can drive, and secondly, he has a social circle outside of the perverted brother group. . .
