At the age of ten, he shyly called out "Sister Jiang," a slender, small boy obedient like a little milk dog. She imitated the adults, kissing his forehead to comfort him. When they met again, he was dressed in a sharp suit with gold-rimmed glasses, his every move as noble and pure as glimmering frost and snow, unapproachably lofty. Tearing off that scholar's disguise, he finally revealed his fangs in the darkness. "Isn't this what you taught me?" he whispered, encircling her slim waist from behind and seeking a kiss, his voice seductive, nearly playful as he called out those two words, "Sister Jiang." Jiang Jiu only then realized that the other party had long since become an obsessive and scheming mad dog, in a place she knew not of.

-Welcome to the new world- Fifty years ago, an unknown source opened up the gates to hell, and demons, with the help of supernatural beings, scorched the earth. The humans have lost their power as the reign of the damned has taken over. "Hmm," Lord Kotzu said as he walked up before me. "She looks youthful, long hair and fair skin," the Lord mumbled as he circled me. "But not as curvy as I hoped, but she's not too thin either." He continued to mumble, and I felt violated by his words. He spoke as if I wasn't standing there. The circling stopped, and he came before me again. "Open your mouth," he commanded in a chilling tone. I looked over at my father, who nodded, urging me to comply. "Teeth look fine," the Lord muttered. "Please, remove your dress!" the Lord ordered. A wave of shame washed over me as my father gave a hesitant nod, yet I understood I had to comply with the Lord's demand. My body trembled as I slipped out of my dress, standing exposed before the men. I couldn't bring myself to meet my father's gaze. After an eternity of scrutiny, the Lord finally said, "Hmm, looks perky enough; you can get dressed now." "Albert?" Lord Kotzu inquired, turning his gaze toward my father. "Yes, my Lord," Father responded.  "Your daughter, Dawn, has been chosen to join the harem of the King of Rumania, Nicolaie Ilias Traian Costea V. She will be leaving with us immediately and will never return. Please take a moment to say your goodbyes. There's no need to pack anything; the King will provide for her every need." The Lord's words hit me like a sudden blow to the gut. What was going on? What could the King possibly want with me?

My stomach felt as if someone had turned it upside-down. Alexander had returned home. I felt great joy upon learning this news as Alexander Black, the boy I once held an intense crush on, rejoined his pack. "Mila, I think I need to postpone our pack dance." She slowly spoke. Mila narrowed her eyes. "Aren't you curious to see what he looks like now? With all his intensive training at Alpha Camp, he must appear different!" She inquired in confusion. "Yes," Mila interrupted. "Instead," Alpha Cole has organized this welcome-back party so Alexander may find his suitable mate before becoming Alpha, as without one, he cannot claim that title." "I remained quiet; I knew I wasn't Luna material; as an inexperienced warrior myself, and knowing Alex needed someone strong yet beautiful to serve alongside him as Luna ruled her country, the chances of me fitting that description seemed unlikely." Mila exclaimed eagerly. "Come!" She enthusiastically encouraged everyone present to join in the adventure, insisting it would be fun! Half an hour later, I was fully dressed in the black dress Mila had chosen for me. "Let's go!" she exclaimed, taking my arm and leading me out of the room. What had transpired at that pack dance would remain with me forever.

All because of one steamy, reckless night, her once peaceful and uneventful life was now in shambles. She glanced at a dress at a store, and suddenly, it was delivered right to her doorstep as if by magic. She mentioned a favorite restaurant, and before she knew it, the chef was standing at her door, ready to cook her a meal. "Mr. Fleming, you're going overboard!" she exclaimed, her warnings falling on deaf ears, as futile as whispering into the wind. And just like that, the chase was on – the tail of a Wife-Chasing Big Shot had begun, turning her life into an unexpected whirlwind romance.

Hindi nakilala ni Greg ang Selene na nasa harapan niya. Pagkagulat at takot ang kanyang naramdaman. Matalim at nagbabanta ang tingin sa kanya ng dalagita. Makikita ang hinanakit sa mga mata nito. Iyon ay dahil hindi na siya nagparamdam dito simula ng malaman niyang buntis na ang kanyang asawa. Magiging ama na siya kaya kailangan niyang magising sa katotohanan. Hindi na niya pwedeng ipagpatuloy ang kabaliwang ito. Ngunit kung lalabas ang katotohanan ngayon, mawawala ang pamilyang pinapangarap niya. "Makinig ka Selene, nangako tayo sa isat-isa na magiging lihim ang tungkol sa atin." mahinahong wika ni Greg dito. Namumuo ang galit sa kanyang dibdib dahil sa sitwasyong pinasok niya. "Do you really think I'm just a child who make stupid promises?" nilock ni Selene ang pinto sa likod niya. Kung sa tingin ng ninong niya ay mapapaikot siya nito, nagkakamali ito. Hindi siya inosenta at mas lalong hindi siya mabuting bata... Unti-unti niyang tinaas ang laylayan ng kanyang yellow dress, sinundan ni Greg ang kanyang mga kamay kahit nilalabanan nito iyon. Nang mahawakan niya ang samplot na tumatakip sa pinakamaselang parte niya. Dahan-dahan niya iyong binaba... She's a bad child, a very bad child...

One man, one umbrella, one sword. The Hall of a Thousand Heroes buzzes with speculation. A nameless figure, draped in black, moves unseen yet leaves behind whispers of his presence. His eyes, flashing gold and cyan, mark the moment he strikes. "Have you heard? He carries a crimson umbrella, concealing a blade within its frame." "Dressed like that, he must think himself a mystery." "But he is a mystery. Who is he, really?" Meanwhile, deep within the Realm of Evil, the man in black wipes his blade clean before sliding it back into its hidden sheath. His throne awaits, and as he leans into its shadows, a quiet chuckle escapes his lips.
