The cicadas' chirping pierced through the open window with a gauze curtain, incessantly calling, each sound condemning this exceptionally hot summer weather.

Just a moment ago, Ji Xiao was wearing a thin-strapped top, cuddling a fan, praying alongside the cicadas for this summer to pass quickly. In the next moment, she felt the surrounding chill piercing her skull.

Inside the room, it felt as cool as if the air conditioner was on, a minty scent riding along the cool air released by the air conditioner, speckles landing on Ji Xiao's skin, instantly sweeping away the stickiness from her skin before falling asleep.

Ji Xiao didn't ponder why there would be an air conditioner in the dorm, readjusted her pillow under her head, and comfortably continued sleeping.

However, slowly, this comfortable and cool sensation made Ji Xiao uneasy. The minty scent permeated her body through her skin, causing her once peaceful blood to start becoming restless. 

Ji Xiao felt her heart beating faster and faster, a restless fire gathering in her chest. A sudden stabbing sensation arose in the back of her neck as if something wanted to come out from within her body.

"Miss, wake up, Miss..."

An unfamiliar voice reaches Ji Xiao's ears.

The voice was cautious and full of fear.

Ji Xiao wasn't sure who the voice was addressing. With closed eyes, she sniffed a few times at the cool mint, hoping to suppress the inexplicable restlessness in her heart. Yet, she found it increasingly difficult to contain this agitation. The back of her neck felt as if something was flowing out, moistening the collar of her clothes.

“...?”

Ji Xiao remembered that she was wearing a spaghetti strap.

"Miss..."

The cautious voice sounded again, and this time it was followed by a hand.

It gently patted Ji Xiao's shoulder a few times, then quickly withdrew. Now Ji Xiao knew who the voice was calling.

But a greater confusion arose in her mind. ‘Miss’? When did she, a poor senior student doing an internship, become a ‘Miss’?

Perplexed, Ji Xiao reluctantly opened her eyes, only to find darkness in her line of sight.

"Miss, put this on first."

The voice approached Ji Xiao, who at this moment began adjusting to the darkness in her vision, barely discerning the figure of the person in front of her and the condition of the room.

The one speaking to her was a maid in uniform, showing extreme respect toward her, even a hint of fear...

This room didn't have the air conditioner she had presumed, nor did it have windows for ventilation. The coolness, even bordering on cold, seemed to be a natural feature of the room…

She wasn't in her dorm's narrow bed but on a soft and luxurious chaise lounge. Instead of the spaghetti strap, she was dressed in a slightly provocative smoke-purple silk pajama set...

The restless feeling still surged through Ji Xiao's body. Her mind was in disarray. Clues were right in front of her, yet she couldn't deduce anything.

At that moment, something unknown was placed by the maid on the back of Ji Xiao's neck.

Without understanding why, Ji Xiao, never so swift before, reacted as the object touched her neck. She instinctively pulled her neck back and seized the maid's hand that had reached out.

The maid winced from Ji Xiao's grip, hastily explaining, "Miss, I'm just applying a suppressive patch for you."

"Suppress...?" Ji Xiao's frown deepened.

Ji Xiao recognized this thing, but not from her current world; it came from a novel she confiscated today from a girl in the class who was secretly reading during evening study—a recently popular abusive female protagonist ABO novel.

The classmates all regarded the female protagonist of this book as the white moonlight*. Ji Xiao watched as they sympathized and shed tears for the female lead, unable to resist temptation, she flipped through the novel before going to sleep."

*first love, an unattainable ideal person or character 

In that world, human gender isn't solely male or female; there are three secondary attributes: Alpha, Beta, and Omega.

Beta is similar to regular people and makes up the majority of humans, while Alphas and Omegas are rarer, possessing pheromones that allow them to attract each other.

So Ji Xiao witnessed how despite the apparent restraint of the male and female leads, their primitive impulses, caused by pheromones, accelerated their heartbeats, generating emotions they had never experienced before...

This setting of restraint and impulsiveness captivated Ji Xiao, making it irresistible for her. She stayed up late, finishing the entire book, shedding a tear for the female lead's eventual happiness.

—It must be said, the female lead in this book had it really tough.

Once a highly anticipated heiress, the pride of her family, she unexpectedly differentiated as an Omega with a weak attribute. Shortly after, her parents tragically died in a car accident, and her inheritance was usurped by her father's friend, Ji Qingyun.

Consequently, the female lead was forced to stay in the Ji household and suffered abuse and mistreatment at the hands of the primary Alpha villainess in the book. Not only was she forcibly marked temporarily, but eventually, she was thoroughly marked by her.

Thinking about this, Ji Xiao's heartbeat skipped a beat, and a bad premonition spread through her. She vividly remembered that the name of the psychotic Alpha villainess in the book was exactly the same as hers.

Same name...

Transmigration into a book...

Could it be that she was this unlucky?

"Miss, it's getting late. Shouldn't we take care of Wei Qingyu and then rest?"

The maid spoke and stood to the side, and only then did Ji Xiao notice another person in the room.

That young girl was sitting limp in the center of the room, her chest slowly rising and falling intensely, as if going through something unbearable.

With each slight tremble of her body, a minty scent emanated, cool and refreshing, falling on Ji Xiao's body, clinging to her back neck, stimulating her fragile glands through the suppressive patch.

It dawned on Ji Xiao that the minty scent causing her to lose control in her dream came from this young girl. And that minty scent was precisely the pheromone scent of this girl.

The girl looked extremely distressed, as if she might collapse at any moment, yet stubbornly persisted, refusing to let herself fall.

The intertwining of fragility and stubbornness in her stirred Ji Xiao's heart with every beat.

Don't let her know who imprisoned and tortured such a fragile and beautiful girl.

Let her know...

[Ji Xiao watched the hope flicker and extinguish repeatedly in Wei Qingyu's eyes, gradually replaced by despair and resentment in her clear emerald green eyes. It piqued Ji Xiao's interest immensely. She crouched down, observing the weak struggle of Wei Qingyu, intriguingly saying, "Wei Qingyu, do you want it? Beg me."]

Ji Xiao froze, the content she had read before falling asleep seemed like a forewarning now etched into her mind.

She stared at the scene in front of her, identical to what was written in the book, and her head spun.

The maid just addressed this girl as Wei Qingyu.

Ji Xiao was horrified to realize that the perpetrator seemed to be herself!

It seemed like she had truly transmigrated into the book!

And she had actually transmigrated into the perverted Alpha villainess with the same name and surname as herself!

In the original book, Ji Xiao's ending is very satisfying.

As Wei Qingyu becomes a new elite in high society and takes back the inheritance her parents left her that the Ji family seized, she will imprison Ji Xiao in the same small dark room where Ji Xiao once imprisoned her.

Afterward, Wei Qingyu will personally gouge out Ji Xiao's gland, torment her nearly to death, and feed her to the sharks in the male lead's family aquarium. Finally, she'll flush her remains into the sewer, leaving nothing behind...

The gland at the back of Ji Xiao's neck felt as if it had been infused with countless peppermint pheromones, making her shiver uncontrollably.

"Miss, Miss?"

The maid's voice echoed again, and Ji Xiao blinked several times, pulling herself back from the dreadful news.

Ji Xiao looked at this dim place, pulling her mouth slightly.

Isn't this the small dark room specifically designed for Wei Qingyu by the original owner, the place where she'll be imprisoned and tortured to the point of being barely alive in the future?!

"Miss, why not just leave her here? It might teach her a lesson and make her think twice before biting you again!" The maid suggested beside Ji Xiao, "Just a fallen Omega from a declining family, daring to snatch suppressants from our Miss, even daring to bite our Miss. Truly ignorant of what's good for her, doesn't know her place..."

"Shut up!"

Not sure if it was the original owner's personality leaving a trace in Ji Xiao, but she felt annoyed listening to the maid blabber incessantly, glancing at her askance.

She, Ji Xiao, wouldn't end up a complete corpse in a few years without involvement from these servile people!

"Miss..." The maid hesitated, looking at Ji Xiao in confusion.

Ji Xiao understood she was often arrogant, and the maid spoke according to her temper. She can't blame them.

Moreover, according to the original book, the bite from Wei Qingyu would result in Ji Xiao's first humiliating temporary mark.

Ji Xiao sat on the throne-like chair, looking at the defenseless young girl not far away, envisioning herself lying there in the future, perhaps even worse off than she was now...

Ji Xiao's heart shuddered a few more times. The words "temporary mark" dared not enter her master's mind.

She brushed her forehead and gestured at the irritating maid beside her, "Forget it, just leave."

"But Miss, this Wei Qingyu is quite scheming. Just now, she..." The maid was worried about leaving Ji Xiao alone in the small dark room, especially since Wei Qingyu had a history of attacking Ji Xiao before.

Ji Xiao repeated, in a low voice with an Alpha's fierceness, "Get out."

Even though the maid was a Beta, Ji Xiao's voice intimidated her. She quickly nodded, pushed the door, and left.

A vast swath of light poured in through the almost invisible door at the entrance, shimmering like a connection to another world.

Wei Qingyu, sitting limp, sensed the light and strained to lift her head toward the door.

The light fell directly on her face, enveloping her whole being. Her loose white gown hung on her body, with too slender shoulders unable to support its intricate design, causing the soft satin to slip off her shoulders and gather on her. Her fair, tender skin peeked through her long hair, pheromones clinging to her hair, glistening the fabric at her neck.

Purity mingled with decadence.

The minty scent lingered around Ji Xiao. Despite the suppressant patch newly placed on her neck, she found it hard to control herself.

No! No!

Ji Xiao kept reminding herself of the consequences: having her gland gouged out. She picked up the last Omega suppressant left by the original owner lying on the cabinet.

"Wei Qingyu," Ji Xiao softly called and walked towards her.

Perhaps hearing her name called or sensing someone approaching, Wei Qingyu turned to look at Ji Xiao.

Sweat beads on her forehead dampened Wei Qingyu's long bangs, and tears, beyond her control, hung on her thick, long eyelashes. Her green eyes, clouded with misty wetness, radiated the vulnerability and alertness of an Omega in heat, each blink evoking immense pity.

Ji Xiao's heart twinged. Cautiously, she crouched next to the tormented girl and whispered, "It's okay, Wei Qingyu, you're safe now."

Unbeknownst to Ji Xiao, as she reached out to administer the suppressant to Wei Qingyu, a sudden surge of force knocked her to the ground.

A piercing pain radiated from Ji Xiao's back, fortunately cushioned by a nearby carpet, preventing a direct hit to her head. Otherwise, she might have met her end right then.

Before Ji Xiao could rejoice, she was enveloped in an overpowering minty pheromone she couldn't dispel.

A stack of white fabric filled Ji Xiao's vision; a pair of slender hands emerged, clasping her arms and pinning them above her head.

Directly above her, Wei Qingyu hovered, her captivating green eyes shimmering with moisture.
