When a mysterious storm crashes through her studio, she's pulled-brushes and all-into a world of primal beauty, where men can transform at will to different animals, cities are carved from stone and bone, and technology is nothing more than a fantasy. In this untamed realm centered around women and powered by instinct, Marisol finds herself at the center of the beastmen tribes. With no phone, no way home, and no clue how to survive in a matriarchal society where women must take multiple male consorts to stay protected, Marisol must quickly adapt-or risk becoming prey. Thrust into the spotlight, she must navigate between aggressive females, obsessive men, and unexpected desire. Armed with nothing but her creativity, courage, and the heart she wears on her sleeve, Marisol begins to uncover her place in this wild world. Maybe she doesn't need to return home after all... maybe she was meant to paint a new life here.

She had a sick child. He had a broken soul. Y/n walked into Jeon Jungkook's office with nothing but desperation in her eyes and a deal he couldn't refuse. Her daughter's life depended on money she didn't have. His billion-dollar inheritance depended on a wife he didn't want. So they signed. A contract. A timeline. And a promise to never ask for more than what was written in ink. But neither of them read the fine print on fate. He was a man built from scars - rich, ruthless, and emotionally numb. She was a woman on the edge - guarded, fierce, and done with love. They thought the past wouldn't follow them into this marriage. They were wrong. Because beneath the cold glares and slammed doors, something simmered. A touch too long. A glance too sharp. A kiss that never should've happened. He told her not to fall. She swore she wouldn't.
