A goddess decided to doom humanity out of her hatred towards them; her first wave brought the dead back to life. Corpses began roaming the earth as the living dead, able to mutate and grow stronger.
Thus the Apocalypse started.
As chaos envelopes the continent and the dead walk the earth, a young man desperate for survival abandons his humanity to become a Ghoul.
This story is about Alexander Faust and his desperate struggle to fight against the fate and density of a dying world.
Driven to the brink of collapse, he found solace in the women that supported him along the path.
Alexander Faust is a man who became a wretched Ghoul to survive.
Ghoul. Noun. ˈgül. : Predators of all living creatures, their endless hunger and crazed passion fueling their endless hunt to dominate and devour the living and consume their flesh.
Chef Zoe Kim, hired by the (dead) heroine from the book she read once, entered the novel and possessed the body of a side character to do one job: save the abandoned Crown Princess.
But in the original story, the character that she possessed died at the hands of Duke Isaak Viotto--- the ghoul duke. Yes, GHOUL, a creature that eats human flesh.
Regardless of what the duke is, she can't avoid him because he's the key to her success. Luckily, she just knows how to get to his good graces.
'THE WAY TO A MAN'S HEART IS THROUGH HIS STOMACH,' right?
She's a chef and the ghoul duke has an awful eating habit.
And she's about to fix that,
With the help of her lovely pastel pink chef's knife, she's determined to feed Isaak Viotto until he's wrapped around her finger.
Wait, no, that's excessive.
The last thing that Zoe needs is a ghoul duke obsessed with her (god-tier cooking skills)!

(EXCERPT 1)
[I didn't expect to meet Isaak Viotto, the ghoul duke, as soon as I entered this novel.]
Scratch that.
Zoe should say that she didn’t expect to find him in a dark alley, but there she was.
Isaak Viotto was crouching down in the corner while holding a dog. Considering the fact that he had his mouth wide open as if he was about to bite the dog, it was obvious that she just interrupted his meal. He only closed his mouth when he felt her presence, then he turned to her.
[Oh no, he's hot!]
Isaak Viotto snarled, baring his fangs at her. “What are you looking at?”
“Your violet eyes,” Zoe said without thinking. “They look yummy.”
“Huh?”
“I like putting violet pansies in my salad,” she explained. “They’re delicious.”
He just looked at her as if she was crazy.
She knew that Duke Isaak Viotto was a GHOUL and ghouls, apparently, eat human flesh. But...
[Dang, he's really hot.]
“Give me the dog,” Zoe told the ghoul duke. “I’ll make you steak tartare in return.”
[So, how did I end up in this situation again?]

(EXCERPT 2)
“You shouldn’t be too rough on animals even if you plan to eat them,” Zoe lectured the ghoul duke that she caught in the middle of trying to eat a dog--- alive! “There’s a humane way of taking their lives, you know?”
Isaak Viotto, the ghoul duke that allegedly eats human flesh, just looked at her with glowing violet eyes. “You’re not scared of me,” he said bluntly. “Are you not afraid of getting eaten?”
“Literally or sexually?”
“What?”
“What?” Zoe asked back. “I thought we were flirting.”

But getting close to her is no easy feat.
Everything changed the day she tried to kill herself.
Saving her is his priority.
His second priority? Obviously, winning her heart.
To the world, he might be the retired dark ghoul sorcerer who is still infamous for his dark deeds.
For her, he's only an annoying doctor who dresses like a woman to please/annoy her more.
What kind of chaos ensues when a ghoul falls in love with a human who is a target of a Fae?

"You should mind your own business."
"I am minding my own business. You are the woman I like. Naturally, you are my business."
"Are you crazy?"
"Yes, I am crazy for you."
"Doctor Sanguine, keep your hands to yourself."
"My apologies, but I have lost control over them since the moment you took my virginity."
She slams the book on his face. "When did I do that?"
"You did it in my dream." The poor doctor looks at her with sad eyes. "When will you make it a reality?"

After witnessing the brutal murder of his parents at a tender age, Ken vows to track down the perpetrator with the piercing red eyes and exact revenge. On his journey, he discovers a mysterious system that reveals his true identity as a Demigod-Vampire.
To grow stronger, Ken must complete quests and missions, but he's faced with an impossible task: consuming blood. Ken's aversion to blood makes this quest seem difficult, as he faints at the mere sight of his own blood.
As Ken delves deeper, he uncovers a shocking truth - the killer is a family member, also a vampire, implying that one of his parents was a vampire and the other a demigod.
Armed with this knowledge and the guidance of the system, Ken sets out to unravel the mysteries surrounding his parents' tragic deaths and confront the darkness within his own family.
After defeating the fallen god-king in divine war, Ziel Grisel (Ken Nijisaki) is cursed by his opponent and loses all his emotions. Ken feels the emptiness in his life and decides to create reincarnation magic by using his innate ability to dispel the curse.
Nine hundred years have passed, and Ken has been successfully reincarnated. Unfortunately, the curse cannot be removed, and Ken is forced to live in that era without his emotions. After learning that fact, Ken is determined to live a quiet and peaceful life as... a butler?

If you didn't want to watch the anime or read the manga, or if you already have and you just are interested in reading this, I made a recap of the Tokyo Ghoul series, mostly adapted from the anime. Credit goes to Sui Ishida and all his collaborators and Tokyo Ghoul is not my idea/show/manga. Basically this is Tokyo Ghoul all throughout seasons one and two but in writing form. Knowing the Tokyo Ghoul NERD that I am, I hope you all enjoy :)
A Tokyo Ghoul spin-off story by me. I'll be dropping chapters weekly.
Highschool student Ito Yagami lived a normal life as a regular kid until an encounter outside of his favorite bookstore involving a bloodthirsty ghoul.
