Thea Vex just wanted a pet to fill the silence of her lonely city apartment. What she got was a grumpy Shiba Inu who glared at her like she'd committed war crimes by offering premium kibble. Then she found the post. Her "pet" Russet has a secret social media account. Where he's complaining about being "kidnapped" by his clueless owner. Where an entire community of talking animals is giving him escape advice. Where a mysterious black wolfdog named Corvus just offered to "replace" him as her pet. Turns out Russet isn't a dog. He's a fox beastman who can shift between human and animal forms—and Thea accidentally cock-blocked his meeting with his destined mate. Oops. Before she can process this insanity, her apartment becomes Grand Central Station for supernatural beings. Corvus the wolf beastman actually shows up, claiming Thea as his fated mate. Then comes Sable the panther who's been her mysterious upstairs neighbor all along. Flint the dragon who's convinced she's his treasure. Marlowe the crow beastman who's her actual coworker at the design firm. Five powerful beastmen. One completely ordinary human woman. And a mating bond that defies every rule of their hidden world. The Beastmen Council says it's impossible—humans can't be fated to their kind, let alone to multiple alphas. But Thea's very existence is rewriting supernatural law, and not everyone's happy about it. Some want to exploit her. Others want her dead. And her five beastmen? They're ready to burn the world down to keep her safe. In a supernatural society built on hierarchy and tradition, can one human woman and her impossible harem forge a new destiny? Or will loving them all doom everyone she's come to cherish?

She was never supposed to survive that accident. She was never supposed to wake up in the Beastworld. And she was definitely never supposed to wield a power even the beastmen fear. Dragged into a world ruled by instinct and primal strength, Lunaya discovers she is the only human capable of "Resonance", a rare ability that can calm, disrupt, or even control a beastman’s instincts with nothing but a touch. A mythical gift. A deadly curse. From the moment she arrives, a feral wolf-beastman saves her from a monstrous predator… and instantly claims her. A dragonborn warrior tries to dominate her, yet his power breaks against hers. A desert feline becomes dangerously obsessed with her scent. And a raven prophet whispers that she will bring ruin to every tribe. In a world where every species is bound by primal nature, she is the only one who can defy it. Protected, hunted, desired, she must decide who to trust if she wants to survive. But the closer the beastmen grow to her, the stronger her Resonance becomes. And soon, Lunaya uncovers a terrifying truth: She wasn't brought into this world by accident. The Beastworld called her. Claimed her. Marked her. Welcome to the Beastworld. This story is also published on Royal Road under the same author name.

In her previous life, Bethany was a top-tier survivor in an apocalyptic world where clean water and food was rarer than diamonds and betrayal came quicker than bullets. Ruthless, smart, and fiercely adaptive, she rose to become the leader of The Red Dawn Alliance, a powerful syndicate of Awakened ability users. But just when she thought she'd secured peace for her people, her most trusted aide and the only friend she dared to have stabbed her in the back in exchange for power. Literally. Now, Bethany wakes up… not dead, not in the apocalypse but inside a historical Chinese novel called Crimson Blossoms Under Heaven, a dark revenge drama she had once binge-read for the plot (and the hot male lead). She’s not the heroine. Nope. Instead, she had become Lan Yue, a lowly handmaiden doomed to die after betraying her mistress, the novel’s brilliant heroine. A cannon fodder side character destined to be nothing more than a footnote. But Lan Yue had no intention of playing her role. Why fight for someone else’s glory?

Seventeen years. That's how long Thessaly endured being the pack's punching bag—the only "human" in the Silvercrest Wolf Pack. The twin Alpha heirs, Caspian and Lucien Thorne, made her life hell with their cruelty. Dax Corvielle, the future Beta, treated her like dirt beneath his boots. Even Kieran Vale, the warrior Gamma, joined the torment like it was sport. She survived it all. The beatings. The humiliation. The loneliness of being unwanted. But when they tried to force her into servitude for life, Thessaly snapped. She walked to the Moon Goddess temple with one purpose: sever her ties to Silvercrest and disappear forever. Except the Goddess had other plans. As Thessaly's blood hit the sacred altar, lightning split the sky. Pain like she'd never known tore through her body as pure white fur erupted from her skin. She wasn't human. She was the rarest of their kind—a White Wolf from the Lunaris bloodline, the ancient royal house thought extinct for three centuries. Then she smelled them. Five distinct scents. Five soul-deep bonds that made her wolf howl with recognition. Five mates. Four of them she knows: Caspian, Lucien, Dax, and Kieran—the very males who tortured her. They're desperate now, claiming the mate bond excuses their cruelty, begging for a chance at her heart. The fifth is a phantom. A dark presence watching from shadows. A connection even stronger than the others, wrapped in danger and ancient secrets. Her former tormentors want her forgiveness. The mystery mate wants her entirely. And Thessaly? She wants revenge, answers, and maybe—just maybe—to build the pack she always deserved. But in a world where mate bonds are sacred law, can a wolf with five mates and a shattered heart learn to trust again? Or will she burn down everything they knew and rise as the queen they never saw coming?

For money, Jin Jumo "signed" herself to the business tycoon Rong Mochen, for a period of one year. Upon their first meeting, the man's voice was icy, "I like women who keep their place, understand?"

If there was anything in her relationship with Rong Mochen that Jin Jumo hadn't anticipated, it would be... --- "Mr. Rong, our contract expired a week ago." Jin Jumo lightly curved her lips, giving a smile that didn't reach her eyes as she looked at the man in front of her. "So?" "So, Mr. Rong, are you playing rogue now?" Jin Jumo gritted her teeth. "Hmm..." Rong Mochen frowned, leisurely raising his head to look at Jin Jumo, "Is my daughter behaving well in your belly?" "It's not even two months, how do you know it's definitely a daughter..."
