Rika Kawai

I stared across the clearing into the piercing golden eyes of the wolf that I had seen a thousand times before. However, despite seeing her over and over again, I had never once seen her face to face. While I was running, I kept repeating a word in my head. The same word over and over again. “Mate! Mate! Mate! Mate!” I thought at first that it was me saying it, but it wasn’t my voice, not exactly. It was close to my voice, but not a perfect match. “Is that you?” I asked myself as I ran deep into the forest. I wasn’t going to be able to hold out for much longer. “Is that really you?” I sobbed in relief.. Rika is nineteen and has a secret that she has been keeping from her family. She is a wolf shifter in the most famous and well-known pack in the world. She is daughter to Trinity and Reece Gray, the King and Queen of all the shifter and magic users in the world, and yet, Rika is losing touch with her wolf more and more each day. Not only that, but she can feel her slipping away from her inch by inch, and fears that she might lose her altogether. On top of feeling as if one day very soon she might never be able to shift again, Rika and her twin brother Reagan have been given a very complicated task. They must help foster the peace between the humans and non-humans of the world now that the veil of secrecy has been removed. The world knows now that the creatures that go bump in the night, vampires, werewolves, witches, Fae, werebears, and more, oh my, are all real. Not all of those people who now know the truth are all that happy about it. Foster a positive relationship with the humans, sure thing. Find the group of people responsible for supposed monster bashings, no problem. Navigate life while also trying to find their own mates. Now that might be a problem. On top of all the other things on their plate, Rika, Reagan, and all the other children of the fabled legacies must learn how to be themselves in a world that will never be the same again. Love and lust, anger and rage, happiness and confusion, emotions will be all over the place as the Chosen Legacy fight for all mankind, human and not. “Rika, you need to tell someone about this. You need to tell them what is going on.” Reagan was glaring at me as I fought that empty feeling inside of me. “I can’t, Reagan. You don’t get it. You don’t know what it’s like to lose that part of you.” “You’re right, I don’t, but it will never get better if you don’t try to do something about it.” His anger made his eyes flash bright blue in the darkness of the night. The way that they were shining, I could tell that it wasn’t just the reflection of the moon, this was his power, this was the essence that was my brother. “Leave me alone.” I snapped as I ran away from him. I was fighting against my tears, holding them back so that he wouldn’t see how much this was hurting me. Not only that, but I couldn’t let him see that it was too late, that my wolf was already gone. Chosen Legacy is a story that has a little bit of everything. It is a coming of age story, where multiple legacies, Rika included, matures emotionally and mentally while learning to navigate the ever-changing world. It is a mystery and suspense as the twins, along with their group of friends, search for the group that has been attacking innocent people around their campus. And it is a hot and steamy romance where each of the legacies will find their one true love to last a lifetime. Who and what does fate have in store for these legacies, and what adventures will they have along the way? This story will change the POV so that it will focus on multiple characters. The character name will be in the chapter title and at the top of the chapter. This is a massive story that will encompass many mating between different characters and a lot of the cast from the book 'Chosen by Fate, Rejected by the Alpha'. It is a stand-alone book. However, you do not need to have read the original to follow along.

Takeshi Mori was just your average high school slacker, coasting through life with a steady diet of cup noodles and mediocre test scores. But his world is turned upside down when he bumps into his ex-girlfriend, Rika Kurobane—who casually reveals that she’s now the Demon Queen. And that’s not even the craziest part. Dragged into the Demon Realm, Takeshi discovers he possesses untapped magical powers that make him a key player in the fight to restore balance. The problem? The Demon Realm is in chaos, with rival Demon Generals battling for Rika’s throne, monstrous creatures lurking around every corner, and a political landscape messier than their breakup. To make matters worse, Rika is as bossy and unpredictable as ever, forcing Takeshi into the role of her reluctant “servant” while insisting he’s the only one she can trust. As Takeshi trains to control his powers, he’s thrust into battles, schemes, and the awkwardness of working with an ex who still knows exactly how to push his buttons. Can Takeshi survive the dangers of the Demon Realm, master his newfound abilities, and maybe—just maybe—help Rika reclaim her throne? Or will their past (and her villainous tendencies) tear them apart for good? Packed with explosive battles, snarky banter, and just a touch of romantic tension, My Ex-Girlfriend Became the Demon Queen?! is a light novel adventure that proves love and war are equally complicated.

Rika adalah seorang gadis di Sekolah Penyihir Falleyan, sekolah bergengsi yang melatih siswa dengan kekuatan luar biasa. Di dunia tempat Rika tinggal, kekuatan ‘Bunga Kutukan’ adalah kemampuan unik yang diwariskan melalui garis keturunan. Seseorang bisa mendapatkan kekuatan ini dengan cara yang sangat alami: warisan genetik. Setiap keluarga yang memiliki ikatan dengan bunga kutukan tertentu bisa melahirkan keturunan yang mewarisi kemampuan kutukan bunga tersebut, yang muncul seiring pertumbuhan dan latihan, tanpa perlu ritual atau kejadian mistis. Namun, Rika terlahir tanpa kekuatan ‘Bunga Kutukan’. Tidak seperti teman-temannya, ia hanya mengandalkan kekuatan fisik dan keuletan yang luar biasa. Meski sering dipandang sebelah mata oleh sebagian besar siswa dan guru, keunikannya membuatnya sedikit populer di antara para siswa, terutama karena kepribadiannya yang bersemangat dan keberanian yang tak tergoyahkan. Rika mungkin tidak memiliki ‘Bunga Kutukan’, tetapi tekadnya untuk membawa perubahan tetap kuat. Namun, bisakah seseorang yang tidak memiliki kutukan benar-benar membuat dunia menjadi lebih baik? Tentu saja, jalan yang harus ditempuh Rika tidak akan mudah...

It’s the year 2073, and everything has changed. New high-tech dominates almost all aspects of life. However, this has a dark side: unethical human experiments. 17-year-old Akira Cruz, the genius nephew of the president of the Philippines, was in the middle of grieving for his late best friend when he stumbled upon an abandoned orphan boy in the mountains while on a hike with his younger sister. That boy is Hachi Shimizu, a half-zombie, half-vampire who was disposed of by an evil organization known as the Kara Tech, which was notorious for its brutal and unethical experiments. Together, the two boys team up with a detective named Toshi Kawasaki, a half-Japanese, half-British who specializes in the supernatural and also considers the murder case of Akira’s best friend open despite the police closing it due to a lack of evidence. The three of them believed that Kara Tech was somehow connected to the disappearances of various children in and around the Tokyo Metropolitan Area. As they go and solve cases, their friendship blossoms, especially when two people, Riho Yoshihara, Akira's childhood, biracial friend, and Htet Kawa, a half-Japanese, half-Burmese junior detective from Yokohama, come along in their various missions, both involving the supernatural and the overworld. Will they stop the organization from committing more heinous crimes before it’s too late? Warning: the photo used for the book cover is NOT mine! Credits go to the original owner!!!

"Ya ampun!!! Pasti menyenangkan kalau bisa masuk ke dunia novel!!" Ucap Nailla dengan girang "Tentu saja!! Bisa bertemu dengan tokoh utama pria yang sangat ganteng, kaya, dan penuh perhatian." Sahut Tasya dengan membayangkan tokoh pria yang ada di novel. "Yahh... Benar. Yang penting kalian bisa bisa tidur dan beristirahat dengan tenang." Ucap Rika tiba-tiba. Rika Windarti, gadis berusia 17 tahun yang sangat suka membaca novel Isekai. Tema yang paling disukai bagi pencinta novel masa kini seperti Rika dan dua temannya di Club Membaca. Berpindah ke dunia lain dan menjadi tokoh utama atau pendamping di sana, yang terlihat menyenangkan. Namun, Rika menampik pemikiran itu karena ia sudah merasakannya. 'MENYUSAHKAN!!' Bukan hanya menjalani hidup di dunia lain, tapi ia tetap harus menjalani hari-harinya di dunia aslinya. Setiap ia tertidur jiwanya akan berpindah ke tubuh gadis yatim piatu yang berusia 17 Tahun, bernama Aurelya. Tidak tahu ia memasuki novel mana atau memang dunia yang Aurelya tinggal, bukan berasal dari novel. Karena Aurelya hanyalah rakyat biasa yang hidup biasa saja sebagai pelayan restoran. Dan begitu malam tiba dan Aurelya tertidur, ia akan kembali ke tubuh aslinya. Sehingga tidak ada waktu baginya untuk istirahat. "Kalau begini bukannya menyenangkan!!! Malah Menyiksa!!!" Teriak Rika dalam hati.

A woman he saw in a dream. A woman he must save. * The old nightmare was only the beginning. The monster was returning. For her. * A monster was preying on innocents. Another was hunting the monster.

And when he went to her side, he found himself staring into the eyes of a monster. A monster that was preying on Rika and others like her. A monster he had to face off against. * Two monsters on a collision course. God help all who came in between.

Follow Kawai as he looks for his girlfriend, collects zombie girls, and fights those survivors from killing him! I do not own this book cover. And I will limit myself writing any sexual scenes. This novel is just purely comedic. I do not advocate materialising women, rape, sexual abuse, and harassment. This story is a work of fiction. Just like what you'd expect for a zombie harem story! This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents either are products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.

"Every single night, when the moon turns as sanguine red as blood, my life itself hangs in the balance. When I wake up the very next morning, I am reborn." Rika Sato is a freshman university student, she had a cold demeanor and an attitude that was basically screaming her apathy. She did not care for anything at all, she was detached from reality, one might say. The world being full of terrible news, murders, kidnappings, and other twisted things made her that way. She was uncaring and frozen. One fateful night, Rika was just walking, determined to get home from school. As the night progressed on, the city lights grew brighter and brighter. Perhaps this was the reason that a random child did not think to look before crossing the street. A truck was coming in closer and closer, the driver was not even looking at the road. Rika knew that she had to do something to save the child. She quickly ran and tried to hurl the child away to safety. She succeeded. The child lived, yet she did not. The truck hit Rika right then and there. [ Do you wish to live, still? ] A voice asked out to her. “Y-Yes! Yes I do!” she screamed. [ Then you shall live once more. You will live in order to become a spectacle. A warrior of the night, if you do not agree with these terms and conditions, we can always just leave you to die. ] The image of a red moon was the last thing she would ever see before her life would change for the better—or for worse. As she would be given a chance to reverse what had happened to her. But there was a catch. It was going to shake up her whole world, living on that borrowed life of hers.

Natasha Putri Kusuma adalah seorang gadis ceria, polos dan imut anak semata wayang dari keluarga Kusuma. Natasha dikelilingi oleh orang-orang yang menyayanginya, tiga pria tampan yang sebagai teman masa kecil dari sejak dia orok (bayi) selalu ada kapan pun dia butuhkan begitu pun keluarga. Sejak kecil Natasha memiliki tubuh lemah yang rentan sakit-sakitan membuat orang tuanya sangat ketat menjaganya sampai melampaui kata sangat, bisa di bilang overprotektif. Hingga suatu hari Natasha yang menyadari hidupnya berbeda dari anak lainnya, dan merasa selalu di atur oleh sang Ayah, di hari itu pertama kali nya dia berteriak dengan penuh emosi. "Kenapa Papa selalu begini sih sama Asha?!" "Asha! Jangan meninggikan suara mu pada orang tua!" Tegur Rika, sang Mama. "Suara Mama juga lebih tinggi dari Asha." Kini Natasha merendahkan nada suaranya. "Kalau Mama gak apa-apa. Kan Mama orang tua nya." "Iiih Mama, Asha kan lagi ngomong sama Papa. Jadi Mama diem dulu." Natasha menempelkan telunjuk ke bibir Rika sehingga membuat Rika seketika terdiam dan mengangguk. Kembali Natasha menatap sang Ayah dengan melotot di paksakan serta memasang wajah serius. "Pah!' "Iya, ada apa, Sha?" Sahut Jhon dengan santai. "Asha bukan anak kecil lagi, Pah." "Di mata Papa kamu tetap anak kecil." "Aku tuh sudah 17 tahun Pah, aku sudah gede." "17 itu angka kecil, dan coba kamu hilangkan angka 7 nya. Di mata Papa kamu masih anak segede gitu." Tutur Jhon dengan nada tegas nan tenang. "Mana ada anak umur 1 tahun segede Asha. Jangan aneh deh Pah." "Ada, kan kamu." Jhon masih menjawab dengan tenang menunjuk Natasha dengan kedikkan dagu. "Aaah~ Pokoknya Asha tetap akan ikut acara itu. Mah! Bujukin Papa." Rengek Natasha menggoyangkan lengan sang Mama. "Kalo kamu bersikap seperti ini, kayaknya Mama setuju deh dengan Papa." "Aaarrgh Mama sama Papa sama aja, nggak ada yang ngertiin Asha. Pokoknya kalau Papa masih nggak ngasih izin, Asha akan kabur nanti jam 3 pagi ke rumah Tante Annisa." Ancam Natasha sembari beranjak pergi dengan perasaan kesal dia berlari menaiki anak tangga. "Tak apalah kabur kerumah tetangga sebelah ini, masih bisa di samperin. Tapi memang benar anak ku ini masih kecil. Jadi bikin khawatir deh kalau ngizinin dia ikut acara sekolah kayak gini. Dia kan sangat lemah dan polos. " Gumam pelan Rika menggelengkan kepala cepat-cepat saat bayangan Natasha dalam bahaya. "Asha! Jangan lari. Nanti kau jatuh." Teriak Jhon merasa cemas melihat putri kesayangan nya berlarian. "Biarin, jatuh juga paling ke bawah." Sahut Natasha tanpa mendengarkan peringatan sang Papa. "Anak ini." Jhon segera berdiri menyusul Natasha.
