Rebirth after death is already a miracle… But rebirth as a rabbit, the prey of both low-rank and high-rank beasts? Now that’s not even luck, that’s punishment. Linda Ein is born again—but in the Beast World—as a tiny, fluffy, high-value snack in a world full of predators. She discovers that the beastmen here suffer from a strange disorder that makes them shift uncontrollably between human and beast depending on their emotions, instincts, stress, or even random habits. They have no idea why this happens. But they assume it’s because their world lacks females, and that various mates for each of them will magically “fix” everything. Unfortunately for Linda and fortunately for them, Linda—now a rabbit—is the rarest female they’ve ever seen.  But Linda had one advantage no other creature had: in her previous life, she came from a family of generational zoologists, people who studied animals and passed it down to their offsprings the way other families passed down carpentry or smithing. She knew animal behavior, instincts, patterns, tricks. And this Beast World was simply… a very large, very chaotic research site. So when the beastmen begged her to stay, she lifted her rabbit ears and declared: “Perfection begins with giving me my own house.” “Done!”
“I need a store too. Beside it.” “Done!” “And… a generous supply of carrots delivered regularly. Two trucks a week isn’t bad.” “…..Done!” “Also, someone please tell that 1000-year-old flying snake to stop circling my roof.” “…” Suddenly, beastmen of all tribes are lining up, begging her…. “Queen Rabbit, please stay with me so I can stabilize!” “Me too!” “I want your presence too!” “Queen Rabbit, choose me!” Linda raises a paw. “Enough. I hear you. But this Queen Rabbit is a STEPMOTHER now so,….”

I swear, if you make me regret jumping from that fucking moving ship—!” Her lashes fluttered, blurred by seawater and tears. “Are you awake?” the voice came again. He was closer now, his breath warm against her cheek. “Can you hear me?!” “I’m begging you… Don’t tell anyone you found me… Someone tried to kill me…” His brows furrowed. “What…? Were you pushed overboard?” Georgia barely managed to nod. But her body had had enough. “Yes…” Then the memories crashed back. Salt water, freezing winds, her body going numb in the ocean… “Don’t come any closer!” she hissed. "I swear to God, I’ll scream if you come one step closer, you pervert!” “I know you...” Nick stiffened. “What now?” “You murdering son of a bitch!” she roared. Georgia grabbed the nearest pillow and hurled it at him. “What the hell? Are you insane?!” he barked, dodging the pillow. “You’re Nicholas Knight! You killed my brother!” Seeing her trembling, he lifted her effortlessly. “Let go of me!” she shrieked, squirming violently. “Stop—shit!” Nick lost his balance. “Maniac!” she declared. That’s when he felt it. Something soft. Plush. His head dropped like a guillotine blade, fast and sharp. His eyes locked on his right hand, which was currently cupping her like he was holding a fragile fruit from the gods. His soul left his body. But his body betrayed him. He was as hard as rock in an instant… Eyes bulging, jaw dropping, Nick choked on a curse. “Fuck.” Too bad he whispered it directly into Georgia’s face. Georgia's knee rocketed upward like a heat-seeking missile. “How dare you touch me, you Captain Pervert! Murderer!” she hissed like a vengeful sea witch. Nick wheezed in pain, clutching his groin. “I saved your life…”

Not your regular billionaire romance. Not even close. Aurielle was born invisible — the daughter they hid, the mistake they buried, the heiress they threw away before she ever took her first breath. Raised by the streets, surviving on grit and charm, she learned one unbreakable rule: nobody owns her. Not a man. Not a name. Not even fate. Then Kieran D’Angelo stormed into her life. One dangerous night. One forbidden touch. One child she never planned for — but refused to abandon the way she was abandoned. Now she’s a mother rebuilding herself from scratch. And Kieran? He’s the cold, ruthless billionaire who has no idea a little boy with his eyes calls her “mama.” But destiny has a sick sense of humor. Aurielle isn’t just a girl from nowhere. She’s the erased heir of the D’Angelo empire — the daughter the family rejected, the bloodline they pretended never existed. And Kieran? He’s the son they raised in her place. Two lives swapped. Two legacies stolen. Two hearts tied by a child who carries the truth in his DNA. And when Dante D’Angelo — Kieran’s charming, dangerous cousin — returns from London and sets his sights on Aurielle, the game gets deadlier. Desire becomes war. Obsession becomes possession. And the D’Angelo empire trembles under secrets built on blood. A mother with nothing to lose. A billionaire with everything to protect. A cousin who wants the one woman he shouldn’t. A son who belongs to all of them — and could destroy them in one breath. This isn’t a love story. It’s a legacy battle wrapped in passion, betrayal, and a truth sharp enough to cut an empire in half.
