    Summary

    Isagi was beside himself with an explosive combination of curiosity, elation, and wariness. Was he about to see a mermaid or a siren? He’d read about them, but he hadn’t thought that they existed, or that an Anomaly would take their shape.

    A large wave crashed on the rocks, and when it receded, it revealed the most beautiful person Isagi had ever laid eyes on lounging at the base of the rocks, framed in sparkling seafoam. His wet hair should have looked ratty and matted from the choppy sea, but it undulated on the surface of the water as if with a life of its own. Isagi tore his gaze away, and that was when he saw his — Kaiser’s — magnificent tail. Countless translucent fins unfurled from the tail, some blue, some gold, with streaks of bright red like warning signs. The waves sent two long, narrow dorsal fins trailing ahead like lures, and the man from the shore followed them right to the indent in the rocks next to Kaiser.

    ●●●●●

    Isagi Yoichi, a Blue Locker training to be the best Seeker-Hunter in the world, encounters a mermaid-shaped Anomaly and cannot get him out of his mind.

    Rated E for explicit smut in Chapter 2 & 3.

    Summary

    When Isagi starts his apprenticeship as a bookbinder, he’s unaware of the true significance of this mysterious craft. He cannot know that his simple life would change irreversibly under the forces of malice, greed, and envy, but also the power of love.

    In a world, where the line between the human mind and the written word is blurry, where memories can be taken away and bound into books, he must find his way to survive. But to achieve that, he needs to team up with an infuriating nobleman first...

    Based on The Binding.

    Summary

    Transmigrating into the stallion novel he hates most is bad enough, but why did it have to be into the body of one of the protagonist's wives? Shen Yuan spends exactly two months dealing with harem intrigues, sullen maids and his husband utterly ignoring him before he decides to go on an extended holiday. Very extended. Surely no one will care if he just forgets about being married and becomes a cultivator, right?

    (In which Luo Binghe goes on a quest to bring his errant husband home and Shen Yuan takes him on an adventure instead.)

    Summary

    “Hey, Yoichi,” he says, just barely loud enough to be audible, not removing the hand covering Isagi’s eyes just yet. His jaw clenched as he paused for a brief moment to think.

     

    I hate you so much, is what he wanted to say.

     


    “Can I kiss you?” is what came out instead.

    Or, Kaiser can’t stop thinking about Yoichi’s forehead

    Summary

    “If you leave, I’ll kill you,” Isagi muttered into Kaiser’s mouth, his voice growing weaker as Kaiser continued to devour him. His grip in Kaiser’s hair tightened, tugging just enough to keep him close.

    Kaiser growled like a strangled dog, his lips pulling back as he pressed his face into the crook of Isagi’s neck. The painter’s scent was intoxicating; almost-sweet wine, paint and blood. Kaiser felt himself going giddy the more he drowned himself in it.

    His teeth sank into the soft skin of Isagi’s neck, biting and sucking the flesh there. “If I stay,” Kaiser hissed, teeth still plunged deep, “you’ll die.”

    Isagi’s body shivered beneath him, his hands grasping at Kaiser’s shoulders but going limp as soon as they gripped. He arched, pressing into the bite as though drawn to the pain. Isagi exhales, muscles slackening as his eyes fluttered shut.
