Villainess is being pampered by her beast husbands

There are times—far too many times—when you feel that uncontrollable urge to kill someone. For Kaya, this… this was exactly that moment. “Repeat what you just said?” She’d seen hell on the battlefield—second-in-command of a military unit, dodging bullets, dragging traitors by the collar, and coming out alive with grit under her nails. But nothing, absolutely nothing, prepared her for the sight of her spineless husband flirting with her own sister. Right in front of her. “I could never marry a barbarian like you. The one I... I like is Meera—” Blah blah. The same pitiful nonsense again. You think—what could possibly be worse than this? And then, right on cue, your idiotic sister chimes in, completely serious, “I just poisoned you.” Wow. BANG. Before anyone could even react, Meera collapsed. Dead. Her so-called husband gasped like a fish dragged out of water. “Y-you…” He dropped to his knees, staring at Kaya like he was seeing a monster rise from the dark. “You killed your sister?! How could y—?” BANG. Second bullet. Same spot. He dropped like a puppet with its strings cut. Silence. ... Just when Kaya thought her story had finally reached its bitter end, the universe—no, god himself—decided to throw in one last, ridiculous twist. “Wife… wife, didn’t you say you were gonna eat me? Why’d you stop?” A snake beast, ridiculously charming and glowing like some immortal fantasy, clung to her, eyes gleaming. Another voice interrupted. “Shut up! My wife wants to cuddle me now—” A sparrow beastman leapt into her arms, like that made any sense. “Hic… wife, don’t you want me anymore?” A panda-like beastman sat beside her, huge, sniffly, and wronged like a child abandoned at a festival. Sitting in the middle of all this, Kaya was absolutely dumbfounded. ‘When the hell did all of this even start?’

LOVE BEYOND SCALES

In the vast and mystical realm of Aeloria, where dragons soar above golden clouds and ancient magic breathes through the mountains, humans and dragons have lived under an uneasy truce for centuries. The dragons—noble, immortal beings capable of shifting into human form—govern the skies and maintain dominance through the Dragon Courts, while humans, frail yet ambitious, serve as craftsmen, scholars, and commoners in the lower lands. Among those humble humans lives Eric Arden, a young man with no lineage, wealth, or special gifts. He spends his days repairing tools and gathering herbs for his small village near the borders of the Dragonlands. Eric’s life is ordinary—until the night he saves a mysterious woman wounded in the forest, unaware that she is Lady Seraphina Drakonis, the daughter of the High Dragon Duke of Emberveil, one of the most powerful dragon clans. Seraphina, in her human form, hides her true identity as she recovers. Her beauty is ethereal—silver hair like moonlight, eyes that shimmer with ancient flame—and Eric finds himself drawn to her gentle heart. Despite their differences, a quiet affection grows between them. But when Seraphina is discovered and forced to return to her people, Eric’s simple life ends forever. He learns the truth: Seraphina is not only a noble dragon, but also betrothed to Lord Kaelith of the Obsidian Wing, a ruthless and prideful dragon prince whose ambition threatens to ignite war between clans. Eric’s love becomes both his strength and his curse. Branded a heretic and outlaw for daring to love beyond his kind, he is hunted by dragons and betrayed by humans alike. Determined not to let fate decide for him, Eric begins a perilous journey across Aeloria—through cursed forests, forgotten ruins, and kingdoms torn by war—to prove that his love is not a sin but a miracle. Along the way, he discovers fragments of an ancient prophecy about a mortal whose heart could bridge the divide between dragons and men. Meanwhile, Seraphina struggles within her golden cage. Torn between her duty to her clan and her love for a human, she faces scorn from her people and manipulation from her father, who sees her only as a tool for alliance. Yet, when the Dragon Council declares Eric’s love a crime punishable by death, Seraphina defies her clan and flees once more—determined to stand beside the man she loves. Their reunion sparks chaos across Aeloria. As dragons descend upon human cities and kingdoms collapse under fear, Eric becomes a symbol of rebellion and forbidden hope. With allies—both human and dragon—he forms the Order of the Unbound Flame, a secret group that seeks peace through courage and love. But the journey comes with loss. Friends fall, villages burn, and trust is tested. Eric begins to change—his bond with Seraphina awakening ancient dragonfire within his mortal body. Is it love transforming him… or something far older and darker? In the final chapters, Eric and Seraphina confront the Eternal Flame, the source of all dragon power. To end the war and unite both races, Eric must sacrifice either his humanity or his love. The ending is bittersweet—depending on the tone you want, it can end with their union at the cost of Eric’s mortality, or with his death transforming into legend, inspiring peace for generations. Through it all, Love Beyond Scales tells a story not just of love, but of courage—the courage to love someone the world forbids you to, to stand against fate itself, and to prove that even the smallest human heart can burn brighter than dragonfire.

Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off

Su Qinglan sat cross-legged on the grass, holding the chubbiest tiger cub she’d ever seen. “Aww… Look at you,” she whispered, booping its tiny nose. “So cute I could eat you up...” A sudden shadow loomed over her. “What’s so good about this stinky cub?” a deep, amused voice asked. She blinked up… and froze. Towering above her was a tall tiger beast man, his golden eyes narrowed in a lazy, predatory smile. “Let’s have ours,” he said. Su Qinglan’s brain short-circuited. … Ours? OURS?! Before she could process, in the next moment she was hoisted up onto his broad shoulder like a sack of grain and carried straight toward the cave. Su Qinglan was so choked by the suddenness of it all… she forgot to even complain. *** Su Qinglan’s knees knocked together as she stared up at the enormous serpent. Its cold, red eyes narrowed, the flick of its tongue tasting the air between them. “D-Don’t eat me,” she stammered, hugging herself. “I...I’m not tasty… really, I’m stringy and full of… uh… bad cholesterol.” The snake’s head lowered until it was mere inches from her face. Her fox ears twitched wildly. And then, before she could blink...its massive body shimmered, scales turning into bronzed skin and lean muscle. Standing before her was a man so breathtakingly handsome that Su Qinglan’s poor fox eyes watered just looking at him. Su Qinglan swallowed hard, her tail fluffing up in panic. “I… I…” Her voice cracked. Okay, new problem… the snake is hot. She squeezed her eyes shut. “If you… if you really want…” She blurted, her face burning, “…y-you can… take me.” *** One moment Su Qinglan was fighting with the zombie king with all her might. Boom! The next, she woke up in a bizarre beast world… inside the body of a lazy, pampered, fat local tyrant everyone hated. The “original” Su Qinglan had been an arrogant, scheming villainess who spent her days bullying weaker beast women, chasing after handsome males, and terrorizing the tribe kids. Now, thanks to fate’s twisted sense of humor, Qinglan had inherited the body and the bad reputation. But honestly? Being fat in a beast world was still better than starving in the apocalypse. At least here, she could eat. The only problem? In this world, men weren’t just men, they were beastmen. Tall, strong, dangerous… And apparently, every beast woman was expected to have several husbands. The catch? The “original” Qinglan’s antics had scared away every decent male within a ten-mile radius. Armed with her apocalyptic survival instincts, a sharp tongue, and a mysterious system that suddenly activated... "Binding with host…" "Congratulations, host, for successfully arriving in the beast world." Qinglan decided she wasn’t going to cry about fate. If she had to live here, then she’d live big, literally.

Surviving The Beast World With My ‘Sassy’ System

A luxury-obsessed modern woman, Lavayla Kingsley, wakes up in a brutal beast world with nothing but her pajamas, her tote bag… and a mouthy system that roasts her more than it helps. At first, she was sure it was a dream — clinging to denial. But that illusion shatters the moment she stumbles across an abandoned beast baby in the forest… right as a monstrous python slithers in to make it a snack. Lavayla — who has only ever witnessed violence through a screen — does the most human thing possible: she panics, and saves the kid anyway, at the cost of her life. That one reckless, heroic, absolutely-what-were-you-thinking act binds her fate to the Beastworld forever… because the baby she rescued just so happens to be the nephew of one of the fiercest, most powerful, and most desired Beastmen on the continent. And now? That terrifying uncle wants to know who the strange human woman cradling his bloodline is. Now she’s stuck juggling a sarcastic survival system with questionable morals, a beastbaby who somehow counts as her “first mission,” territory wars, beastman politics, and man-eating creatures. But Lavayla Kingsley is nothing if not stubborn — and if the universe thinks dropping her into a savage world with no good food, no proper shelter, no shower, no proper clothing, no wifi, and no will to live is enough to break her? Hell fucking yes it is! Someone get her out of here, please!
