Ch. 1

Legend states that when the beast is asleep, the beauty is awake.

However, when the beast is awake, the beauty is asleep.

This time, they're both awake.

In a country where there are now castes, love between two different castes is almost impossible and illegal.

But imagine falling in love with a different type of species.

A half-human, half-wolf.

Blood from two of the most powerful figures in the world, wolves are sacred to humanity. They should be treated like humans, since they are and look human.

But are they treated like a person? No. Simply because they are half-wolf. Let's just call them the 'Wolves', since they are, right?

Ever since Korea solidified itself from other countries, Korea has tried to become powerful in any way possible. Even if it's means breeding a human and wolf together to make the offspring almost immune to anything.

But no one knew that wolves had feelings. Ever since they were young, Wolves were trained to be the strongest and loyal of everyone. But it's harder when only 1% of the population is half-wolf.

Let's talk about the humans now, also called 'Beauties'.

Humans dominate the social world, inside and out of Korea. However, in Korea, humans are different.

They have castes.

First, they are sorted out into their main group of 'Beauties' or 'Wolves', and then they are separated into mini-castes; Chosen, Accepted, or Denied.

Chosen, which is the highest caste of all three, is reserved for those who are the role-models of society. Basically meaning that they were in charge of keeping the society happy and entertained.

Accepted, which is the middle of the three, is reserved for those who are just normal. They are average citizens who are in charge of keeping their economy strong.

Denied, the lowest caste, is made for those who are denied from the society. (Hence, the name 'Denied'). They are seen as traitors to the country, always blamed for making the country look bad. Don't worry, Denied only take up 4% of the population.

That's just the basics and overview of what this story is about. Let's get right into the major points.
