To gain access to the palace, Xia attends the next selection to join the sultan's harem. To play the part of a concubine, Xia dresses up as a woman in an attempt to fool everyone. Things don't go exactly as planned when instead of being chosen to join the harem, Xia is chosen to be the sultan's bride.

[2024 Amby Awards winner] For as long as he can remember, Caldor has been forced to live a life of crime. With a group of his fellow thieves, they've stolen from practically all of the wealthier citizens of Redreach over the years. They have a system of how to go about their business, and it works. Until one day when it doesn't. Captured by guards and dragged off into the dungeons, Cal expects to be executed. What other fate could await a lifelong thief? But instead he is given an offer: his life will be spared if he steals a specific book. The catch? The owner of said book is a dragon. Caldor ends up accepting, having little choice, but he doesn't believe he will succeed. What Cal assumes will be his death turns out very differently, however, when he actually meets the dragon-a surprisingly human-looking and handsome creature called Idriseth-and very quickly becomes enamored with him. Cal may have come to steal the dragon's book, but now he wants to steal his heart. But will the always guarded Idriseth let him?

He is next in line to rule Amarath, the empire that has been at war with the species for centuries. Alexis is more than fit for the role. He's killed hundreds of monsters, is respected by all, a natural born leader. The only thing keeping him from taking over the throne is his lack of marital status. Unfortunately, nobody seems to catch his eye. Thankfully, Kita can help with that. Alexis has a lot going on at basically any given time. He's under a lot of pressure, and right when it's starting to crush him, he's given a solution: just marry his best friend.

All problems seem solved, that is, until one night, when Kita's involved with an incident that ends up changing the course of his life for good.
