Eighteen-year-old Celeste Everhart is thrown into an impossible situation: marry Tiel Brightwell or watch her family, and herself, fall into abject poverty. Despite being unloved and unwanted, she cannot let that happen. Not when her family has only ever known a life of comfort, and the Everhart Sugar Company is her father’s only legacy. But what happens when the hand that offers her the most comfort is not the hand meant to take hers in marriage? Celeste finds herself drawn to Avond Brightwell, Tiel’s older brother, who is entirely forbidden. Someone who knows better... and yet... Besides, why should she be loyal to Tiel when his heart already belongs to someone else? Someone with magenta eyes and silver hair, a moonlight compared to her black coal. When the shadows of the mafia world calls her to rise as a shark and claim her place, will Celeste survive the treacherous currents… or will she drown instead?

Yokai Awakening follows the rise and fall of a bloodline tied to both glory and ruin. Long ago, Prince Mydeimos Crimson, the firstborn of the Crimson King, stood as the strongest of his kind—a ruler blessed with love, family, and unmatched power. But in a single tragic moment, he lost everything: his wife, his children, and even his own life. No one, not even the Crimson King himself, knows how he truly died. Centuries later, the Crimson name is no longer a symbol of peace but of fear—monsters seeking to reshape the world in their image. In this new era, a boy named Jae Hoon is born. Unlike the corrupted legacy of the Crimsons, Jae cherishes his family, dreams of protecting those he loves, and longs to create a better world. From childhood, he learns magic, awakens his mana core, and begins uncovering the hidden truths of the world—and of himself. But fate is cruel. Betrayed and humiliated by Princess Liora in the royal capital, Jae returns home only to find his village in flames. There, before his very eyes, a hooded figure slaughters his people and rips his father apart in the most horrific way imaginable. Cornered at the edge of a cliff, Jae faces certain death—until a mysterious system appears before him with a single question: “Do you wish to awaken?” That moment marks the beginning of Jae Hoon’s Yokai Awakening—a rebirth into a world filled with political issues,power hungry, deadly yokai beasts, and unending war. Yet even with his new strength, peace is fragile. To survive, Jae must endure betrayal, political strife, and battles that push him to his very limits, all while uncovering the mysteries of his reincarnation, the Crimsons, and his own destiny. At its heart, Yokai Awakening is a tale of fantasy, action, reincarnation, and hope—where one boy dares to challenge fate itself to forge the world of his dreams.

"Aqua Chrysalis houses the most bizarre tenants who call each other by their animal code names. In this jungle of a building.I hate humans. One moment they say they like something. Then, the next moment they say they hate it. One moment they get along. The next moment they fight. They're hopeless, hypocritical beings who are proud and weak. They continue to hurt people. To destroy what they have in their hands. In an endless cycle. That's why I decided not to make any friends. My name is Butterfly. Well actually, my name is really Cho. My name means 'Butterfly', so people started calling me that. Since when? I don't remember. I think the name suits me. Butterflies silently flutter about from flower to flower, watching the world unfold as time moves forward. And keeping distance from interfering in the business of others. That is the kind of person I am."

*Reverse harem* This is the story of a shark-kin girl who wanted to hug a thigh to escape her fate but instead dropped a stone on her own foot. She had instead awakened something within her 'thigh' that she could not control, making him as black-bellied as herself and drawing the attention of several other 'thighs' who offered themselves to her willingly. -- Step 1: Be cute Step 2: bootlick Step 3: make sure you know your target, you really don't want to f*ck yourself. Step 4: don't be a white lotus, don't be green tea, don't be on anyone's side but the thigh's. Step 5: have no boyfriend, limit your friends Step 6: be able to cook, wash, clean and drive like a boss, know how to speak, walk, and if push comes to shove socialise. Step 7 : make sure you know the worth of yourself and make sure it can be at least high enough for your thigh to become your shield when in need. He will not hesitate. Step 8: when you grow up, make sure you are still holding that thigh and have an extra or erm two. Step 9: don't fall for the thigh you are hugging. Step 10: forget it, escaping now is futile. I had hugged my thigh too well, sigh. there are two types of thigh hugging: cheap persistent and annoying, or the high-class version: act in a way the thigh will want to pamper and protect you. The answer is obvious. --- Take note: pov will change, but female lead will remain constant. This book has a sea world theme within but that is not fixed. World building, action, slight disturbing scenes. Romance is slow burn, so please take note but we will have fluff moments!!! --- (Cover not mine credit to the owner, if there are any issues, please let me know and I will take it down.)

Aiko Tanaka finds solace in order. Her lonely night shifts at a Tokyo convenience store are predictable, meticulously organized, and safe. Or so she thinks. Her quiet world shatters when brutal Yakuza thugs corner her, claiming her territory—and her—as their own. But before they can drag her into the city's dark underbelly, an even greater darkness intervenes. Enter Kaito Ishikawa. He is impossibly handsome, terrifyingly powerful, and not entirely human. He is the heir to the Ishikawa-gumi, a Yakuza clan that rules not with guns, but with the monstrous spirits of Japanese folklore—the Yokai. And Kaito? He is their King, bound by duty, ancient blood pacts... and a political engagement meant to secure his clan's future. He dispatches Aiko's attackers with chilling, demonic power, revealing a glimpse of the monster beneath his perfect suit. But salvation comes at a price. Having witnessed his true nature, and now marked by his enemies, Aiko is a dangerous loose end. Defying his obligations, Kaito doesn't offer her a choice. He claims her. He forces her from her old life and into his secret, luxurious safe house—a gilded cage where he can keep her protected, hidden, and under his complete control, a secret that could destroy his alliances if revealed. Trapped with the cold, possessive Yokai King, Aiko fears she's traded one prison for another. He is her captor, her protector, a creature of shadow and violence who belongs to another. But as they live under the same roof, the forced proximity ignites a spark neither expected. She sees glimpses of the honorable, wounded man beneath the ruthless leader, and he finds himself drawn to the quiet human girl who isn't afraid of the monster he truly is—even as his betrothed waits in the wings. Caught between a brewing supernatural war, a dangerous political landscape, and an impossible, forbidden attraction, Aiko must navigate a world where desire is as deadly as the demons. Can she survive being taken—and secretly loved—by the Yokai King? Or will their forbidden passion bring ruin upon them both?
