I love it! I'm usually not into female leads but this book has captured my heart even though I've only read quite a few chapters! The content is very interesting and I really love Nathalie. Despite having to tough it out she's not giving up which just shows she's a strong independent woman. And that's what really caught my attention. Structure-wise, the author did a good job! The sequence of events are orderly, and the grammar is topnotch. Keep up the great job Author-san!

Hai hai! Here we have my review for Chapters 1 to 5 because that is my standard for first impressions on a novel. Fair warning to everyone, the progress is slow in these chapters so it might not be your cup of tea. I will do another review for Chapter 6 to 10 in order to compare and give a more accurate opinion about the pacing. One thing I commend about the writer is the world-building and character introductions in these chapters. Nathalie is a lavish woman. She also knows what she wants and she won't compromise if it's really what she believes in--which is definitely something to admire. There's a trail of breadcrumbs for the readers to be immersed with curiosity about what is coming next. Nothing is a coincidence from what I have seen--despite how it's being played out as a normal day (with a little drama) in the life of Nathalie. As a writer, I am curious about what direction she's taking her novel into and how it will play out. Of course, I look forward to the part where she transmigrates into it. Hehe. I appreciate this background on her before the anticipated event so I can get to know her and see how much development there is in store. So kudos to author-sama for that! One criticism I have is the dialogues. It's not a major concern since the story will have fantasy elements but I currently don't find them natural with the modern urban setting in these chapters. Like I said, they are more appropriate for fantasy settings which is where the story is leading to. But I do think having a simple and straightforward type of dialogue in the modern setting is another way to distinguish the two types of worlds in the story.

Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all.
