Acılı karanlık bir geçmiş tarafından avlanan, partneri tarafından reddedilen ve tekrar incitilen bir kadın. Yaşayan ama hayatın tadını asla çıkaramayan bir yürüyen ölü gibiydi. Karanlık ve acı içinde boğuluyordu. Her zamanki gibi nefessiz kaldığında, komşu ırkın alfasının hayatına girdiğini ve yaşamına ışık getirdiğini gördü. O onun kurtarıcısı mıydı? Birçok şey belirsizken, bildiği bir şey vardı ki o da onu "eş" olarak çağırdığında hayatının altüst olacağıydı. Reddedilen dişi kurt başka bir alfa eş mi buldu? Bu bir nimet mi yoksa lanet mi?

Üç yıllık evlilik süresince Tristan, eşi Esther'i tanımlamak için iki kelime kullanabileceğine inanıyordu: sıkıcı ve etkileyici olmayan.

Esther'e ödülü verdikten sonra, zarif ve soğuk Tristan aniden kalabalığın önünde boyun eğerek yalvardı: "Esther, seni geçmişte takdir etmemek benim hatamdı. Sevgini kazanmak için bana ikinci bir şans verebilir misin?" Esther, Tristan'a parlak, mesafeli bir gülümsemeyle baktı. "Üzgünüm, Bay Flynn. Şu anda tek umursadığım şey kariyerim." Tristan, Esther'in elini çekti, gözleri hüzünle doldu. "Esther, sensiz yaşayamam." Esther soğuk bir şekilde döndü ve düşündü: "Şaka mı yapıyorsun? Neden kariyerime odaklanmak yerine bir erkekle çıkayım? Üstelik, sen benim eski kocamsın."

Flora Bloom looked at the vast space within her sea of consciousness; it had a farmhouse courtyard, fields, and a Spirit River, but it just lacked a bit of vitality. So, a fat, sky-flying mantis? Collect! A rare little white tiger that can discharge electricity? Collect! A behemoth spirit crocodile with its young? Collect! As long as it's alive and edible, collect, collect, collect them all!

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
