The Beauty Inside

Kenji: The Inside Man is a satire-light novel following Kenji Takahashi, a veteran undercover operative who’s seen it all—except high school. Assigned to infiltrate Sakura High School as a student (yes, as a student), his mission is to uncover the truth behind a suspicious pudding distribution network linked to global experiments on youth behavior. But between rehearsing Shakespeare, spiking volleyballs, and avoiding the romantic attention of teenagers and faculty, Kenji starts to question which is more dangerous: the mission... or the minors. The school seems oblivious. The vending machines are full of suspicious desserts. And the nurse might be part of something bigger than anyone suspects. Comedy, absurdity, and deadpan spy tactics collide in this parody of espionage thrillers and high school anime.

In a world where Alphas are kings and Omegas are the lowest of the low, the breeders and the slaves, Krystal Mirovich, the Alpha's daughter, found herself shifting into the latter. The world she knew crumbled overnight. An Alpha's daughter shifting into an Omega? What an embarrassment. Her friends grew distant. Her boyfriend left her for her sister who was an Alpha. And her father? He wanted to sell her off to become a breeder for some Alpha. And Krystal would never allow that. She was ready to do anything to escape this fate, so she hatched a plan. Was it successful? Probably. She planned to enter an agreement with a desperate Alpha whose pack couldn’t afford healthcare. But he actually tried to cheat her instead by forcefully making her his.

But I knew the fate awaiting me if I failed to escape was far more dreadful than this. “Sure.” “S–sure?” He agreed, just like that?!
