Io is just a simple girl born to a paddy field worker. When she gets the chance of a lifetime to go to another village she has no idea the journey that she will be beginning. There she first lays eyes on Draco who will become her greatest love and her greatest challenge. The boy she grows to love has been promised to another and those around him will stop at nothing to see him married off. In a spur of a moment he hears a conversation that cause him to stray from his family path and to choose the girl that he loves. He has no idea that she has grown too angry by his absence. In an accidental fit of rage Io ends the life of her beloved before she finds out about the child she carries. His mother, so distraught in her grief, curses the young girl to experience her pain for one thousand years. She will never know the love of another or the love of her children. At a whim she will transform into the very beast that the witch saw her as until she has fullfilled her mission to destine all her children to a life as a monster just like her. In the end Io finally understands who she must forgive only to find that the curses had a ripple effect. Because of her anger four others were also cursed to her same fate. Anger has now began the birth of the supernatural race.
