In the year 2025, humanity bore witness to an event that would forever alter the course of its history. It began suddenly, without warning. Across every corner of the world, the skies darkened as a strange, otherworldly substance entered Earth's atmosphere. Like molten embers against the night, it burned crimson and tore through the stratosphere, falling upon cities, mountains, deserts, and oceans in a shower of scarlet rain. To those who saw it, the phenomenon was unlike anything they had ever known, beautiful yet unnervingly ominous. For days, the air seemed to shimmer with an unnatural energy, and the red-hued particles clung to every surface, seeping into the earth, flowing into rivers, and saturating the very ground people walked on. This substance would come to be known as the SS Virus, a silent invader whose true nature was masked by the passing days. Initially, it seemed harmless, a peculiar mystery that prompted whispers among scientists and sparked wonder in the public. But as time marched on, humanity would come to understand the terrible implications of this new presence on Earth. Soon earth entered it's apocalyptic stage and humans and beasts alike mutated, breaking their natural limits 100 times over. Beasts developed high intelligence higher than that of normal humans and had developed one main mission, kill humanity.Humanity however wouldn't fall that easily and rose as warriors. This was the begining, The Clash Of Man and Beasts.

Every little girl's fantasy is to live a wonderful life full of riches and luxuries. This was the future she imagined, and she was willing to go to any length to obtain it. She was spoiled, pampered, and doted on by her family, and she was proud of herself. She knew she deserved the best, and she went for it. This, however, is where the nightmare began. Wanting to leave the clutches of poverty wasn't as simple as she believed, given the things she had to give up, the humiliation she had to endure, and the numerous things she had to lose. It was not worthwhile. When she thought she had it all, she was slapped in the face with the cold, hard truth: she was only a SUBSTITUTE. And when two of her closest companions turned on her and betrayed her, she was shoved aside and got humiliated by people she used to know. With nothing and no one to lean on, she was forced to make decisions. Decisions that gradually resulted in something breathtakingly amazing. [DING! SIGN IN! THE HOST HAS BEEN REWARDED WITH ******]

On her eighteenth birthday, Valerie Lane’s dreams for the future–getting accepted into the Helblaze pack–came crumbling down when she wasn’t blessed with her wolf form. The Moon Goddess’ betrayal left her in so many pieces that she was unable to recover for months… until her fate finally smiled upon her and blessed her with her mate. Valerie’s lonely and sad life turned perfect overnight, almost like something out of a fairytale. Caleb Lockhart–the beta of the Helblaze pack–was everything that she had ever dreamt of. If one were to believe Valerie’s perspective, he was more than she deserved–tall, handsome, charming, and above all… loving. Valerie relishes in the bliss of her newfound love life until Caleb starts showing his true colors. She constantly has to beg for an ounce of affection from her mate, and constantly has to endure the ridicule from the other women and the pack members. Just when she believes that she is fated to rot in hell on earth, someone else starts showering her with the affection she so desires. Will Valerie open her heart to the man who can be her salvation from eternal damnation? Excerpt: “Open your mouth,” he commanded in a ragged whisper. I did as he asked. Although embarrassed, I parted my lips, just enough to let out the breath that I was holding. His lips immediately sealed mine shut and began to move skillfully–every stroke of his jaw precise and succinct–evoking the primal urge from deep within me. I tried to keep up with his pace but my inexperience was painfully obvious. He suddenly entangled his slender fingers with my loose hair and pulled it down to tilt my head up. I don’t know why my heart raced at that action of his, but it did. I bet my heart rate topped the chart when he nipped my lower lip and whispered, my lip still between his teeth, “Open wider. Let me taste you.” Follow me on Instagram for more. https://www.instagram.com/sani_mimosa/ The cover art was commissioned from Artist Shu G Sin. Find him on Instagram @shu_g_sin

Chen Wei was diagnosed with a severe mental illness two months ago, and the reason was terrifyingly unusual. For the past two months, every time he fell asleep, his consciousness would slip into a parallel world—one that was devastated by an ongoing apocalyptic disaster. In this other world, chaos reigns as natural catastrophes unfold without end: from ice ages to meteor showers, acid rains, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, viral plagues, and a relentless zombie outbreak. A man named Chen Wei, struggling against the harsh elements and a crumbling society, is trapped in a nightmare of survival. For two months, this parallel version of Chen Wei fought, scavenged, and barely managed to stay alive as the world around him collapsed. In his waking world, the real Chen Wei suffered from debilitating nightmares, unable to escape the horrors his mind conjured while asleep. But everything changed when he accidentally killed his first zombie in the apocalyptic world and consumed its mysterious crystal core. That moment unlocked an inexplicable power within him—his space ability. Chen Wei's newfound power allows him to store items in an alternate space, taking food, supplies, gold, jewelry, and even the valuable crystal cores into his safe haven. But when he wakes up in the real world, he is shocked to find that the space is not just a figment of his dreams. The gold, the supplies, the very things he stored in the parallel world are real—and they can be brought back into his reality. As he delves deeper into this strange phenomenon, Chen Wei realizes that the two worlds are linked in ways he never imagined. His alternate self’s actions in the apocalypse directly affect his real-world existence. Now, Chen Wei must navigate this strange connection between his two selves, learning to use his abilities to gather resources, grow stronger, and uncover the mysteries behind his power. With the ability to travel between worlds through dreams and bring tangible items from one reality to another, Chen Wei faces an unprecedented opportunity—and an equally terrifying responsibility. What will Chen Wei do with his newfound power? Will he dominate the apocalyptic world, exploiting its resources and knowledge for his own gain? Or will the constant interplay between his two lives unravel the fragile balance he has created? The fate of both worlds rests in his hands, and with each dream, his grip on reality grows ever more tenuous. *Between two worlds, in the realm of dreams, Chen Wei will rise to face challenges that defy the laws of time and space.*

ONGOING | BOOK COVER ILLUSTRATED BY CHADLER EJERCITO CASTILLO *** First Master Ruyin, who had lost his wife years earlier, formed an alliance with the newly widowed Nightfall Empress Dowager, Xuwen, at the request of his older brother, the Emperor of the Heavenly Empire. This union was a strategic move to protect her son, the newly ascended Nightfall Emperor, from trials and doubts cast by rival clans within the Nightfall Empire regarding his early ascension to the throne. Xichen, the young Nightfall Emperor, did not oppose this arrangement. In fact, he recognized that this alliance would be advantageous to both sides. The tie not only secured peace between the Heavenly Empire and the Nightfall Empire citizens but also sealed a treaty preventing either side-who had long been embroiled in endless conflict-from eventually engaging in war. Once the alliance was sealed, First Master Ruyin and his only son, Young Master Ruan, decided to establish their residence within the Nightfall Empire. Ruan, though known throughout the courts as a spoiled and mischievous teenager, was, in truth, an exceptional prodigy. His raw power grew each day, even without any effort, making his Heavenly Emperor uncle shower him with praise, which further fueled the envy of those around him. Everything seemed to fall perfectly into place, except for the once peaceful harem of the Nightfall Emperor, which became a hotbed of discord as his concubines began vying for his attention. What no one realized, however, was that the entire situation was an orchestrated scheme devised by Ruan himself. With his sharp wit and cunning mind, he was making sure that the Nightfall Emperor was entirely wrapped around his fingers.

Bronze WINNER of WPC#322: Male Lead: Zombie Invasion Takemi Kazuichi might very well be the luckiest and unluckiest person in the world. He was an orphan, and he was severely bullied in school. Because of that, he became a hikikomori, a shut-in. When he turned sixteen, he was adopted by a rich couple who loved him as if he was their own son. Unfortunately, they died in a plane crash, and Kazuichi never overcame his bad habits of being a shut-in, largely because of his preying relatives. Fast forward to four years later, Takemi Kazuichi still stayed in the house left by his late parents. He never bothered going to work or going out to socialize with people. For the lack of a better term, he was a rich hikikomori. He never even bothered to check the news or log in on any social media. All he did was live his life in solitude, devoid of any human interaction. One day, as he came out of the shower, he heard a strange thumping sound by the doorway. "That's weird, I didn't order any delivery today." He told himself before absent-mindedly opening the door. And what stared back didn't resemble a human at all. It was a zombie— or so that's what the first thing that came into Kazuichi's mind. Unbeknownst to him, the world had drastically changed, and he was the last one to know.

Qiao Jinniang's parents passed away the moment she came of age. For the sake of inheriting a restaurant, she had no choice but to ‘recruit’ a husband who would take her family name. Who knew that her husband, who looked like a banished immortal, was an ingrate? He snatched her child away and left behind a divorce letter. Qiao Jinniang became the butt of every joke in Lin’an City. Seeing that her uncle was about to take her parents' blood, sweat, and tears for himself, the son of the Prefect of the Superior Prefecture wanted to take her in as a concubine. However, a horse carriage sent from the Marquis arrived in Chang'an City. An old lady servant clad in an embroidered robe walked up to her and called her "Young Miss". It was only then that Qiao Jinniang realized that she was the eldest daughter of the principal wife of Marquis Anyuan. Back then, when the marchioness gave birth to her, she encountered a robber. At that time, a jealous concubine switched out her daughter with the chef's daughter. Therefore, a divorced female chef who had already given birth entered the capital. Everyone was waiting to see this real heiress make a fool of herself. They were secretly guessing when the real heiress would be abandoned by the Marquis. Yet, they failed to expect Qiao Jinniang to open up a restaurant in Chang'an using her amazing culinary skills. Even His Majesty showered her with praise. She was pampered by everyone in the Marquis' residence. Those long-tongued women in Chang'an City said sourly, "So what if a woman gets pampered at home? She's long past the age of 18 and has already given birth. Who will marry her?" The Marquis found Qiao Jinniang quite a few husbands. However, despite many marriages being in discussion, none of them went smoothly. As the marchioness's face was covered in tears, the fake daughter said she wanted to give Qiao Jinniang her husband instead. Qiao Jinniang took the rolling pin and kicked open the Eastern Palace's main door. "Since you've already divorced me, why are you still ruining my marriage?" A certain crown prince said, "How can we let the mother of the royal grandson marry someone else?!"
