Sequel of Allison, taking place about 17 years after the original series.

Elia is a poor university student until the night she’s taken to the world of the Anima—ruled by humans whose ancient hearts pulse with the blood of animals. There she’s forced into a battle to the death. But when Elia survives, and refuses to kill her final opponent, the King must either kill Elia himself, or take her as his mate.

Reth, the brutal King of the Beasts with the blood of lions, shocks everyone when he chooses the weak, human Elia to become his Queen. He promises her every comfort of his wealth and position—but he is clear: She will not warm his bed. He chose her to defeat those that were trying to corner him into blending his Leonine line with the Wolves.

Elia needs the help of the Anima to become stronger and rule them well. But the vengeful Wolves see only a weak human that brought them shame. As Elia and Reth grow closer, the wolves are determined to destroy her. Will Reth and Elia admit their feelings for each in time to fight for the Kingdom—and their lives—against the villainous wolf-tribe? Or will the wolves kill Elia and steal the throne?

He stalked towards her, chin low so the shadow cast by his hard jaw cut across the thick fur collar of his vest. His hair had fallen over his eyes in the scuffle, so he peered at her through it like a lion in the grass. With each step, his graceful, rolling gait reminded her of a predator stalking its prey. Despite the forest floor littered in twigs and leaves, he didn’t make a sound.

“Wh-who are you?” Elia stammered, backing away, her hands up. He met her step for step until she came up hard against the tree behind her—and didn’t stop until he loomed over her, so broad his shoulders and chest made a wall in front of her. She could feel the heat rising off his skin in the cool, night air.

“I am the Leonine King.” His voice was a dark, husky gravel. Behind him a chorus of wheezes, howls, and chirps of agreement rose from the people watching. “And you are?”

“Elia,” she breathed.

“Elia,” he growled, leaning in closer, bringing with him the scent of pine and rain and the musk of something distinctly male. “I am Reth.” He said the name with a strange, guttural roll in his throat. “I am King of Beasts. I am Clan Leader, and I am Alpha of WildWood.” Several snarls rose from the crowds behind him then, but he ignored them.

Elia swallowed as he leaned in until the scruff on his jaw rasped her cheek. “I am the King,” he said, “And you will be my mate.”

The forest behind him erupted.

Qiao Ningxun died and was reborn back to the time when her family owed hundreds of thousands in debt.

As soon as he was reborn, he met his scumbag father who came over with his new love and gave up custody rights.

My mother lost her job soon and had to support three children who were studying. The family was very poor.

But when Qiao Ningxun discovered that he could cultivate immortality, then no problem would be a problem.

As time went by, everyone found that Qiao’s fruits and vegetables were the best growing and the sweetest.

Every time the Qiao family goes up the mountain, they always get a lot of harvest. Morels, porcini mushrooms, chicken fir, etc. that others can’t find are shipped down the mountain in large quantities.

People in the Qiao family are getting younger and younger as they live, the men are getting stronger and stronger, and the women’s skin is as tender as a peeled egg.

Qiao Ningxun spoke as if she had received a blessing, and her words were accurate. Countless people came to her for fortune telling every day.

For those who are good to Qiao Ningxun, everyone’s destiny has undergone major changes.
