Born to a house where women were only seen as tools to birth children, I was already in my twenties. I was standing on the crossroads of life.... more>>

At my fingertips were close to fifty photos of different men. They were the marriage partner candidates my father had prepared.

Those who took the initiative and volunteered because they wanted his company, and those that were recommended to strengthen our ties with other companies. There were various reasons, but I was to marry one, and build up a child.

That was my reason for existence in this house.

I don’t think I can love another.

I wonder how everyone believes in something so shapeless as love. It was only a marvel to me.

That I couldn’t do something any standard person could must be because I was a person who was never properly loved.

I put a break on the countless unanswered questions I held since my birth, and stared down at the photos around me.

That I chose him was truly a coincidence. <<less

Shen Suian unexpectedly transmigrates into a dog-blooded BL novel and becomes the doomed white moonlight sought after by four scummy suitors who end up empty-handed.... more>>

He tore up the script, adopted an affectionate persona to infiltrate the Imperial Marshal's residence, spending his days leisurely drinking tea, basking in the sun, gently teasing the vegetative lion who was in a deep coma, and amusing the warrior orphans adopted by Gu's family—a group of fluffy cubs. Life was surprisingly carefree.

As a result, one day, the vegetative lion suddenly woke up, not only recovering human form but also cornering him against the wall.

The man had a handsome face, a robust physique, and the long-standing dominance that exuded a strong oppressive aura.

At this moment, however, his brows were furrowed, eyes lowered, unexpectedly emitting a sense of pitifulness. "When I was unconscious, you kept saying you liked me the most. Now that I've finally awakened, why are you only playing with those little cubs?"

Shen Suian: "..."

Accidentally overhearing the humanized lion discussing marriage proposals, Shen Suian was thunderstruck and frightened, prompting him to flee overnight.

A few days later, there was a knocking sound at the door. The big lion sat obediently, wearing a sign around its neck: "Homeless, seeking adoption."

Seeing that Shen Suian remained unmoved, it silently lay down, its tail hooking onto Shen Suian's hand, pressing against its soft belly.

The wooden sign flipped over, revealing another line of words: "Touched the belly, you must take responsibility."

Shen Suian: Hey, Empire Police, there's a lion trying to scam me here!

Xie Jiaran deals with mild skin hunger syndrome, however, he also has severe mysophobia, to the extent that he even considers whether he has wet wipes on him before shaking hands with others. ... more>>

Thus, whenever his skin hunger happens to break out, he can only resort to sleep to numb himself. Fortunately, the symptoms are relatively mild to be considered painful.

However, all of this was mercilessly disrupted after Liang Sunian moved into the dormitory.

To his surprise, he actually showed no resistance to this person’s closeness. Even as Liang Sunian stood off the court, lifting the hem of his shirt to drink water after playing basketball, an irresistible urge to be tightly held in his arms surged within him.

As the sleep therapy failed, his skin hunger syndrome worsened.

…….

One late night, Liang Sunian, who was suffering from insomnia due to the heat, got up shirtless and went to cool off on the balcony. He appeared bewildered as he stared at Xie Jiaran.

“What?” Liang Sunian felt he was hallucinating due to the heat getting to his head.

How could his typically aloof roommate, even while casting such a glance that seemed like granting a favor, say such words to him?

Xie Jiaran fell silent for a moment. He repeated the previous words in his usual cold tone, trying to stay composed yet inevitably conveying a hint of resignation:

“Liang Sunian, could you please hold me for a while?” <<less

The Alpha bigshot of the Federal Military, Huo Yan, took a liking to that obedient and submissive pretty little plaything.

No matter how Huo Yan treated him as less than human, he only lowered his snowy white neck, obediently kneeling on the ground, removing Huo Yan’s shoes and socks upon his late-night return, timely offering warm and palatable hangover soup.

What a convenient little plaything, Huo Yan thought.

Until one day, Huo Yan suddenly realized that he had the ability to hear others’ thoughts.

Upon returning home, the pretty Omega approached, gently and humbly kneeling as usual to remove his shoes and socks. However, Huo Yan heard a deeply annoyed sound from him, [“Tsk.”]

……

Huo Yan’s face turned ashen, he restrained himself, holding him to sleep. Although the Omega had a shy and delighted expression, that intensely repulsed voice in his heart struck his eardrums even more fiercely.

[“This frantic dog in heat!”]
Huo Yan: ?

Huo Yan raised the chin of the pretty Omega with his polished shoes, his lips curling with disdain, “Are you willing to do anything for me?”

The seemingly harmless thistle flower nodded docilely, forming a stark contrast with the gritted-teeth thought.

The self-assured Huo Yan smiled.

He played with this wild and unmanageable pretty plaything between his fingers, like a cat toying with a mouse, planning to torture it to the brink before ruthlessly crushing this fake and deceptive plaything!

He was too impatient to witness the despair in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, when the thistle flower turned its head, it tore off a chunk of his flesh.

On the third day after the death of his beloved cat, Guaji, the heartbroken He Yunzhou picked up a man on his doorstep.

Yes, he knew that the other party was just a neighbor who lives upstairs.

But before this day, he couldn’t have imagined that there really was such a person so similar to his Guaji……

It was probably because of this that he couldn’t help but raise this awkward, wayward, and troublesome man.

As for the industry elite; the dashing, rich, outstanding, wanderer, Huo Zheng,

He wouldn’t realize until much later,

That as it turns out, the man treated him so well wasn’t because he wanted to have a partner,

I suddenly remembered the moment when I fell in love with him. This feeling is very clear.

Isu was trapped in a building on a deserted island.... more>>

She had no memories, no recollection of how she got here.

She was rescued by one of the survivors of a plane crash that took place on the island.

Hayden Wight. A young gentleman from the United Kingdom. Representative of a security company.

Meeting him could have been a blessing, giving her the chance to escape from vicious criminals.

From his eyes to his lips and his whole body, the man also seemed to want to give her a chance to start a new life.

“I don’t know my name or my age. I don’t even know what kinds of danger I am in. That’s why it’s a bit difficult for me to be next to a man.”

Isu expressed concern.

“I mean, you could also be in danger if you were to get involved with me.”

A warm breeze blew in from the sea.

As the sand particles began to fly through the air, Hayden covered Isu’s face with his hand and replied,

“Then I’ll have to receive higher compensation. I don’t intend for you to pay me with your body, so you can rest easy.”

Unlike usual, Isu could barely control her expression. The memory of last night suddenly came to mind.

His blue eyes focused on Isu.

“Y-you’re staring at me like a filthy beast.”

Isu stammered, unable to respond properly.

Just then, the question that followed took her breath away.

“Who was it that pretended to be asleep and turned me on?”

She knew he had seen it all last night. <<less
