Playing House with a Tentacle Monster

Yulin transmigrates into a horror novel as a disposable side character.

The original owner had nearly perfect model parents, until one day she discovered they were nothing but skins controlled by monsters.

Once their secret was exposed, the furious monsters swallowed the fleeing girl whole.

As it happened, by the time Yulin arrived, the monster was already about to break down the door.

A slick, sticky tentacle slipped through the crack and grabbed her by the calf. With no weapon in hand, Yulin could only open her mouth and bite down on its resilient flesh.

At once, the tentacle seemed to freeze, as though she had bitten it somewhere vital.

Levis: ? She kissed me.

Levis had lived for who knew how many years, yet had never experienced anything like this. He immediately extended the tentacle toward Yulin again. “Hold it.”

Yulin shakily took hold of it, thinking they were about to make peace with a handshake.

Then Levis said, “Now kiss me.”

[Yulin discovers that the monster Levis wants to play house with her. She has to pretend to be his family, soothing him while looking for a way to escape.]

Levis discovers that Yulin is a liar. She told him she wouldn't run away and would be his wife just to placate him.

Levis believed her, but his “wife” ran away, and did so after one wild night together.

But there's something he hasn't told Yulin: his gaze is everywhere, and his consciousness can spread from anywhere there's water.

[Let's see where my wife has run off to now.]

Yulin barely managed to escape the clutches of the old monster. She hadn't enjoyed even a few peaceful days when all sorts of strange marks suddenly appeared on her body, and she felt as if someone had tossed her around and beaten her repeatedly.

It finally dawned on Yulin… This didn't seem right.

Hadn't there been an old monster who liked sneaking into her room in the middle of the night?

[A lighthearted story written purely to indulge my kinks / not too serious / no need to overthink it]

Content warning: This is kink-driven writing. Early on, I just want to read some scenes where the heroine runs away, gets caught, and is taken by force, along with lots of clingy couple moments. The heroine is a bit of a dummy. Her escape attempts fail, and she gets licked instead; she slowly coaxes the old monster, only to shoot herself in the foot. She only decides to start the “dog-training plan” once she can't run anymore.

If that's not your thing, don't click in just to get upset. The heroine will be caught several times early on, and you don't need to tell me if you drop the story.

*Actually eaten / edible in every way

At twenty-eight, Wen Er was being pressured by her parents to get married, so she had no choice but to marry a man who was under the same pressure.

They were always polite and distant after the wedding, each keeping to their own business. Even when their parents started pressuring them to have children, they could snap back that her husband wasn't up to the task, so they couldn't have kids.

Perhaps he heard that remark. One night, Wen Er realized someone was beside her. Her supposedly “useless” husband expressionlessly slipped a hand inside her clothes, his body frighteningly hot.

There seemed to be something off about her husband.

He had never cooked before. They used to live on takeout, but now he would put on an apron and head into the kitchen of his own accord. She just couldn't figure out why his food always had such a strange, indescribable flavor.

And then there was their sex life. He was withdrawn and seemed to have psychological problems, so he had no interest in sex. That was precisely why Wen Er had chosen him as her husband. Yet lately, he had been climbing into her bed every night, hoping to reproduce with her mouth to mouth.

Yes, that was the strangest part. Wen Er didn't think normal people called sex “reproduction”…

Huo Junsi was certainly not human, at least not in his current state.

He found the body of “Huo Junsi” in the mountains. By consuming Huo Junsi's memories, he learned that he now had a human partner.

Feeling responsible for taking over someone else's body, the monster decided to care for his partner. When he returned to their nest, he found a chaotic mess and a frail human partner.

How pitiful.

The monster cleaned up the nest and began nursing his human partner back to health. His mycelium was highly nutritious, so he often cut off a small piece and mixed it into her food.

Though, to be honest, he had his own reasons for doing this. To be ready for the breeding season, his partner needed a healthy, strong body.

At last, her complexion improved day by day under his care.

And then the breeding season arrived.

The furtive monster reached out an eager “hand” toward his partner.

The good news was that his wife didn't mind being touched by him. Unfortunately, she always fell asleep before two hours had passed.

Among his kind, breeding took at least six hours at a time. To make up the difference, he had no choice but to let his mycelium do some deep cultivating.

He sighed: Human reproduction is such a hassle.

Bad news: His wife seemed to have discovered what he was.

She took the spores they had raised together and ran.

■Kink-driven and shameless, but just too delicious.

Thesis: Face hardships with a positive attitude
