As she mourns over her forsaken love, Ring becomes victim to a fellow lead dancer's violent jealousy, leaving her torn between guilt over his expulsion from the school and gratitude for her teacher's decision to protect her. Finally realizing her true feelings for Ring, Crystina reveals the passion buried deep within, igniting a torrid love affair that transforms into a bittersweet romance. But with hidden jealousy and wild accusations threatening the young couple, can Ring and Crystina keep themselves - and their past - from destroying what they so desperately sought to create?
