Simon Hawthorn and I were once New York's most envied power couple. In our six years of marriage, his world seemed to revolve entirely around me. His devotion was an open secret in our circle. Even during the month he lay in a coma after a car crash, he constantly murmured my nickname: "Rory." I kept a tireless vigil at his bedside, and finally, my prayers were answered when he miraculously woke up. But the day before his discharge, I saw him in the hospital's private garden, locked in a passionate embrace with another woman. "Rosie, it was only when I was on the brink of death that I realized you've always been the one I love." "If it weren't for how much she looks like you, I would have never given Aurora Blackwood a second glance, let alone married her." "Give me a chance. Let's start over." The positive pregnancy test in my pocket suddenly felt as cold and heavy as a stone. It turned out the "Rory" Simon had been murmuring so tenderly wasn't me at all. I was just a pathetic stand-in, the fool in a six-year charade.

Max arrives in Japan believing he has finally escaped his old life. A new country, a cheap room, and the promise of anonymity feel like a reset—quiet, lonely, but safe. Days blur together as he drifts on the edges of society, unseen and unimportant. Then one day, Max wakes up in complete darkness. With no sense of time, place, or how he got there, his memories begin to fracture. Ordinary moments collide with unsettling gaps, and reality starts to feel unstable. The longer he waits, the harder it becomes to tell whether he is remembering, dreaming, or losing himself. MICE is a psychological thriller about isolation, identity, and the terrifying question of what remains when no one is watching.

Mimic's Might Betrayed. Abandoned. Left to rot in the abyss. Thirteen-year-old Vincent was never the strongest, the fastest, or the most favored. When the village bullies toss him like garbage into the shifting, pitch-black labyrinth of the Deep Dungeons, he was supposed to become just another forgotten skeleton in the gravel. But the dark has secrets of its own. And it was hungry. Instead of death, Vincent finds Malakor, a living, shifting nightmare of a mimic. Bound together by blood and a mutual hunger for survival, the boy and the monster form a symbiotic bond that defies the rules of the world. With Malakor transforming from a supple leather glove into an arsenal of deadly weapons, Vincent stops being the prey. In a world of cold steel, blind predators, and treacherous allies, Vincent learns a brutal truth: the only way to escape a monster's den is to become the greatest monster of them all.

In the chaotic city of Zango, where survival feels like a daily accident and reality itself seems unstable, a scientist named Calado Bento—infamously known as “Doctor Bad Luck”—works at GENE-HIVE BIOTECHNOLOGIES, a biotech corporation experimenting with genetic mutations and insect-based super-organisms. When a series of bizarre incidents leads him to experiment on an ordinary cockroach using forbidden genetic technology, the creature mutates into a monstrous, intelligent entity known as Cockroachman—an unpredictable force that embodies both heroism and destruction. Declaring war on filth and corruption, it becomes a feared and mythologized figure across the city. As chaos escalates, other mutations and human-insect hybrids emerge from the same unstable scientific experiments, including Human-Cockroach, a being shaped by waste, poverty, and survival instinct, further distorting the boundary between human and monster. Meanwhile, Calado himself attempts to gain powers but instead becomes trapped in a cycle of failure, absurdity, and accidental survival, reflecting the distorted logic of Zango—a place where death, science, and comedy blur into one system of existence. The story evolves into a darkly comedic and chaotic exploration of power, mutation, and urban decay, where every attempt to control life only creates new, more unstable forms of it. .
