Surrounded by Monsters
Chase was the ultimate divine weapon: a ruthless, time-shattered warrior tasked with executing the enemies of his contracted goddess—be they heretics, kings, rival champions, or even minor gods. For centuries, he carried out his grim duty, killing without question, his loyalty absolute.
When the time finally came to claim his long-awaited payment, his ancient contract was violently voided. The Goddess, in a moment of catastrophic carelessness, accidentally killed him by forgetting that human flesh cannot withstand the divine realm.
To escape the consequence—a massive payment she couldn't afford—the dishonest deity did the next best thing: she granted him his desire and an "extra wish" and immediately dumped his soul into a new, unfamiliar reality.
He awoke as a baby in a world unrecognizable to him, one filled with seductive, predatory Monster Women and humans who, despite the veneer of normalcy, are hiding terrifying powers and darker intentions.
Vowing to leave his life of bloodshed behind, Chase grows up using the handsome, pre-Awakened body the Goddess provided to him, choosing a simple, anonymous life as an office worker at a major game development company.
But anonymity is impossible for an "Awakened" human who unknowingly emits a rare, desirable essence that grants god-like power to those who consume it. Now, Chase's quiet cubicle has become a hunting ground.
His immediate problem: his powerful, alluring co-workers. Mostly vampires, demons, and beast man, they are drawn to him like moths to a flame—or, more accurately, predators to prey. Chief among them is his breathtaking, demanding wolf-demon Boss, whose predatory intent is thinly veiled by an executive suit.
Will Chase manage to keep his head down and finally achieve the peaceful life he desires, or will the demands of his past and the insatiable hunger of the powerful Monster Women in his office drag him back into a conflict more dangerous than any he faced as a warrior?
