1960. The air in the grand manor is thick with the scent of corruption and expensive perfume. Chuuya, a ginger-haired omega in a maid’s uniform, stands trembling as the 3-year-old child kicks and scratches him. The door bursts open. The master returns, eyes narrowing at the scene: the crying child, the scratched maid. The wife raises her hand, ready to strike, while Chuuya braces for the inevitable abuse, his stomach empty, his spirit worn thin by poverty and prejudice.
