[A collection of sweet romance stories featuring nonhuman leads] 01 Fragile beauty × Esper possessed by vines When the apocalypse arrives, Su Yao's ex-boyfriend hands her over to an Esper so he can save his own skin. Inside, countless vines wrap around the fragile beauty, catch every tear she sheds, and savor every inch of her. Outside, the Esper's teammates cheerfully pin down the pretty beauty's useless boyfriend and threaten him. “Your girlfriend caught the boss's eye. You should be grateful! You're a grown man. Getting replaced without a break in between is normal, so why are you crying?” 02 Fallen noblewoman × Python disguised as a demon hunter Jiao Jiao is attacked on her way to the capital. A demon snake drags her back to its cave and takes her by force. While escaping, she saves the greatest demon hunter of the age.

Humans are delicious. 03 Awkward, insecure beauty with a gorgeous figure × Wild wolf, 1.9 meters tall in human form, massively muscled, cruel and vicious Rong Shu joins a hiking group, and they get lost in a vast stretch of mountains.
