"There isn't a single word on this Earth that can describe how radiant you are. I am certain that a vision of you inspired the heavens, that one glimpse of you would make God realize why he created man. You are a divine angel and I am but a humble man begging on his knees for a taste of you." . . . Elio Nott is perhaps one of the most well-known bachelors in the Wizarding World. He's dashing, charming, and never serious. Which is why when Elio turns twenty-three with no signs of settling down, his parents decide to force him into the world of pureblood balls and matchmaking, much to his chagrin. The only perks are the *many* elegant females and, perhaps, the spiked punch. Elio hates it all. Until he goes to the stupid Malfoy Masquerade Ball only to find the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. But before he can even get her name, she disappears. Annalise Riddle is quiet, slow to trust, and prefers the company of her piano to one of her peers any day. As the daughter of the Dark Lord, she is constantly in danger so Annie spends her days shyly hidden away for fear of being harmed by one of his many enemies. So she isn't expecting to go to a ball and meet a stunning boy with grey eyes and a charming grin that takes away all of her defenses. Panicking, Annie leaves and vows to never see him again. Until he shows up another night to search for her. A Game of Cat and Mouse tells of a woman afraid of love and a man so determined to have her that he will stop at nothing. This book contains instant attraction, billionaire-esque playboy MMC, a sprinkle of dark romance, cinderella retelling, brother's rival, "he falls first AND harder", forced proximity, and lots of male pining. This is a spinoff of the Slytherin Boys series. It is recommended that you read my books Smoke & Stars and Darkness & Devotion for an idea of the character's parents and their backstories, though it is not required. This story does NOT take place at Hogwarts!

Is this the Beast World from the popular novel or comic I've read?" == "Look... the other female was so tall but stunning while the other one is short but cute." "The small one seems weak; I'll go after the other strong one. She will bear more cubs than the weak one." Julie let out a sigh, her heart was clutched with both frustration and disappointed while looking to the other male beastmen with a pitying gaze. It seemed her height and skinneness was being judged. "Hah, what an idiot. As I recalled, that beautiful one was more naive and a little foolish despite her looks. There's no way I'll find trouble like her." "What's her name again, was it Bai Qingqing?" The leopard threw her a cold glance, and shouted. "You female! Don't go near us again, I don't want you to hurt Bai Qingqing!" It's like every time he saw her with Bai Qingqing, she always weeping in tears. 'Dude, she cried because you left me in the forest. It's not my fault she's crying over me like she lost her bestie. What a retarded jerk! She clicked her tongue, and rolled her eyes. "Oh well, there's nothing I could do to the foolish ones." "Fate is fate." Despite her amusement at the situation, she winced as she recalled the chaos and troubles that seemed to follow the 'beautiful and naive' female in the story. Being transported into Beast World, Julie was determined to carve her own path and avoid getting entangled in the dramatic affairs of the beastmen. But little did she know that fate had other plans for her, and her journey in the Beast World was just beginning. == Vote to update each chapter with 5 pages depends of votes quality It will be uploaded fast.
