Ogre Animal

After entering a horror game, I, Anastasia Moreau, begin dating the big boss. At our first meeting, I wrap my arms around his sleek, serpentine body and squeeze him into a corner of the coffin. "Move over, move over." In the next instant, a strikingly handsome young man with white hair and golden eyes appears beneath me. The tips of his ears flush red as he glares at me. "You… You're lying on my hair!" he grits out.

After the human race loses the war, the beastfolk rule over the human lands. As crown princess, my sister Amber Whitaker is born beautiful and is handed over to the Beast King, Theron Olson, as his concubine. Compared to her, I'm plain, so they send me to the breeding quarters, where beastmen fight over me and use me like a breeding machine. However, Amber doesn't fare well either. She's too gentle for palace schemes. Before long, the other women frame her, and she dies. As for me, pregnancy after pregnancy wears my body down until it's too weak to go on, and I die filled with hatred. Then, everything blurs. When Amber and I open our eyes, we stare at each other in shock and realize we're back on the very day the human race falls. This time, I hold her hand tightly and say firmly, "Let me serve the Beast King instead!" On the night, Theron takes me to his bed. "You look so slim, yet you're surprisingly full. Are you afraid?" With that, he strips away my clothes and casts off his own. One glance makes my breath hitch. I've seen beastmen's packages before, but I never expected Theron to have two!

A century ago, the war between humans and beastkin nearly destroyed the world. To restore order, the five major beast clans—Dragon, Tiger, Leopard, Serpent, and Peacock—formed an alliance with humanity. Under the Treaty of Balance, every hundred years, a union between humans and beastkin must occur. The first child born of this union—a half-beast—will inherit the throne and rule over the Human-Beast Alliance. In my past life, I chose Max, the Dragon Clan's heir. Known for his unwavering devotion and noble bloodline, he seemed the perfect mate. I gave birth to the first half-beast child of the generation—a rare white dragon. Our son was named the next ruler, and Max rose to unmatched power. My half-sister, Alice, chose the Tiger Clan—seduced by beauty, blinded by arrogance. Her husband betrayed her, and she was left barren and disgraced. She envied me. Hated me. One night, she drugged me, set our home on fire, and watched as the flames devoured me and my son. But fate was not done with me. When I opened my eyes, I had returned to the day of the choosing ceremony—the moment that would decide our mates, our fates, and the future ruler of the realm. Only this time… Alice had already climbed into Max’s bed. She had been reborn too. But what she didn’t know was this: Max is not the devoted prince she remembers. He is brutal. Possessive. A beast of blood, not love. And this time, I won't make the same mistake.

I suspected my husband was a detached ascetic. Every night, he'd skip to the backyard, muttering prayers under the stars instead of sharing our bed. When I slipped into something slinky, he'd frown and clutch his prayer beads like a lifeline. Now I was done with the cold shoulder, slapping a divorce agreement in his hands. That was when his thoughts started leaking into my head. "She touched me. Her hands are like silk. I'm dying to kiss her. When is she gonna be okay with me being a snake? I just want to cuddle her." "A snake?" I thought. "Does that mean he's packing two things? I have to find out." I leered at his chiseled frame, practically drooling. Before divorcing, I needed to test his things and my limits. I tripped purposefully and fell onto his toned pecs, ready to test the waters. "Whoops!" I gasped, setting the stage.

When I learned that the villain was a merman who dropped pearls whenever he cried, I took out the discarded pregnancy test stick from the trash can and headed toward the rooftop. "Well, how many babies do you merfolk have in one pregnancy? Do they eat fish food or baby formula?" Theo Atwater, who was attempting suicide, slipped and almost fell from the 18th floor. I shook my head with a sigh. "Forget it. I'll just throw the baby into the sea after giving birth." Later, when the baby was born, Theo was too scared to sleep, fearing that I would release the baby into the sea. When the female lead, Melody Carlisle, and the male lead, Reagan York, were arguing and came to see us, he was looking at our baby’s swimming results and roaring, "You're one of us merfolk. How could you be afraid of water?"

On the day we were to choose our magical guardians, my sister laid claim to the griffin's egg, leaving the serpent's egg to me. She boasted that, as the trueborn daughter of the queen and the eldest princess, she was destined to become the chosen heir. However, her griffin egg never hatched, what stumbled out was nothing more than a pitiful turkey. My serpent egg, however, nurtured by the waters of the enchanted spring, awakened into a true white wyvern. When I was named heir to the throne, my sister raised a cup in celebration, only to poison me with the wine and end my life. I opened my eyes again at the moment of choosing. This time, my sister snatched away my serpent egg, shattered the griffin's before my eyes, and imprisoned me on a distant isle: determined that I would witness her glory as the chosen of the white wyvern and heir to the crown. Yet when the white wyvern cracked its shell, destiny shifted. I bound myself instead to the Titan Ape, a beast mighty enough to bring the wyvern to its knees.

My show-quality service beastkin doesn't like me. He only wags his tail for my sister. I then bring home a low-grade venting beastkin. But he's now so upset that he's nearly in tears. "Layla Manfred, there can only be one hound, and that's me!"

I bought a fox fae. The owner of Vulpyr Hall had been very clear. He was only here to help me get rich, nothing else. A year later, my assets had skyrocketed to a billion. But… Wasn’t he supposed to stay out of anything intimate? Why did it feel like he wanted to get under my skin?

Na vida passada, minha irmã Ursula e eu salvamos dois ovos. Do ovo de Ursula nasceu Gélido, enquanto do meu ovo nasceu Flamejante. Ursula tomou de mim Flamejante que eu havia chocado, mas jamais esperava que o mundo fosse sucumbir ao apocalipse das altas temperaturas. Ursula morreu queimada pelo calor. Antes de morrer, ela instigou meu marido Gélido a me estrangular até a morte. Jamais imaginei que renasceríamos justamente no dia em que os dois ovos chocaram. Desta vez, Ursula ficou com Gélido. Ela acreditava que, tendo Gélido, conseguiria atravessar o apocalipse de calor sem dificuldades. Mas o que ela não sabia era que, para manter o poder extraordinário, Gélido precisava alimentar-se diariamente de sangue fresco.

Tras la gran guerra entre las tres razas —humanos, dragones y lobos—, las razas del Dragón y del Lobo quedaron bajo una maldición: sus descendientes de sangre pura ya no podían heredar todo el poder. Para preservar la fuerza del linaje, en cada generación el Rey Dragón y el Rey Lobo debían tomar como esposa a una mujer humana portadora de la Bendición. El primero en engendrar un hijo híbrido haría que su raza dominara a los otros dos durante un siglo. En mi vida pasada, me casé con el Rey Lobo, Daniel Vázquez, famoso por su fama de caballero dulce y amable. Antes de que se cumpliera nuestro primer año de casados, di a luz a un hijo medio lobo, capaz de heredar el poder. Desde entonces, Daniel se convirtió en el soberano de las tres razas, y los lobos dominaron el mundo durante un siglo. Mi hermana mayor, Diana Manzur, en cambio, cegada por la imponente figura del dragón plateado, se casó con el Rey del Clan de los Dragones Plateados. Pero él era altivo e indomable; cuando perdía el control, la hirió en el vientre, provocándole un aborto y dejándola estéril para siempre. Diana me envidió con una rabia enfermiza. En una reunión familiar, me apuñaló sin pestañear. Cuando abrí los ojos de nuevo, había vuelto a la noche anterior a la boda concertada por las tres razas. Diana se me adelantó y entró en el cuarto de Daniel para acostarse con él. Ella también había renacido. Pero lo que no sabía era que, en realidad, Daniel era más frío que el hielo y que su mayor placer era torturar a los humanos indefensos.
