The world was split into two, and the people with it. No one was safe in the shadow of the soul shifters. Their whole hierarchy revolved around violence and death, it was drilled into their minds from the second they could pick up a sword. But what happens when someone as ordinary as Irina runs towards them, instead of away from them? She was a cornered animal, who refused to give up. So instead of running, she became what she most feared.

The Reluctant Cougar (Rise of the Alpha King's Heir)
*Complete but still subject to edits* Ben Cougar and Eileen Grau have been best friends since they were kids. For the young cougar-shifter, it was love at first sight. For the ostracized Vampire girl, it was good to have a friend--even if he was six years younger. Time changes all things, however, and when Eileen comes home from college Ben is no longer "little" in any sense of the word. He has a young man's body, a young man's desires, and he's done letting other men break his woman's heart. Ignorant people might call her a cougar, but if Ben has his way, soon everybody will be calling her Mrs. Cougar. Shapeshifter x vampire Older woman x younger man *** A few notes: This story takes place in the late '90s/early 2000s. This is a prequel, and while it does lead into the next story it can be read as a HEA standalone. This is an instant-love, slow-burn story that will include dirty talk and some some tamer aspects of kink-play as the characters' relationship progresses. Also, because I want everybody to have a happily ever after, this story will occasionally take detours into the minds and relationships of the side characters.

If she loves them, then I love them too. I love her, I always will. I will protect her no matter what. She is MY beauty, MY love, MY soul, MY mate. No one else will take that away from me.

Strong Attraction
Kana Abiko is an old classmate of Bai Qingqing. She is out shopping when she is transported alongside QingQing to another universe where men turn into animals and women have multiple husbands. Should she try to protect QingQing or will she be able to put herself first and find love and happiness for herself? AN: I will be aging up QingQing and any of the other young love interests because I refuse to write about a 16 year old getting married and having kids. I enjoy the original series and get that it is common in that universe but I just can't and won't do it. DISCLAIMER: All rights for Beauty and the Beasts goes to the user White Headed Dream on webnovel! This amazing work was created by them and I simply am writing a fanfiction. I really enjoyed the storyline and the characters of this series so I couldn't help but put a little bit of myself into it.
