Crimson Bloomed: Ascend In a modern world where cities still glitter and phones still ring, something ancient is stirring beneath the surface — quiet at first, like a whisper behind mirrors, a mutation in the static. But the apocalypse doesn’t arrive with fire and thunder. It blooms. Slowly. Crimson and inevitable. Aria Solenne is just trying to finish college. Her days are filled with lectures, her nights tucked between shelves at a fading bookstore. She dreams of stranger things — forests that breathe, voices in thunder, a touch that feels older than her skin. Then she meets Selene Virelle. Selene is a former soldier with ice in her veins and secrets buried deeper than bone. Her presence is magnetic, her touch cold but reverent — and her eyes hold a grief Aria doesn’t understand. What Aria doesn’t know is that she already died… once. In a timeline erased by divine hands, Aria was killed by the very Council that now pretends to protect humanity. Selene had failed her then — but not again. Reforged by a deal with Aphrodite, gifted a second chance, Selene returns to this life with a single purpose: protect Aria, no matter the cost. But Aria is changing. Something inside her is waking — something dark, divine, and dangerously seductive. Her bloodline is not entirely human. It’s part succubus, part vampire, and entirely marked by the kind of power gods once feared. As the world around her fractures — people vanishing, monsters evolving, cities swallowed by silence — Aria becomes the eye of a storm that could unmake everything… or save it. And she’s not alone. Five women are drawn to her — each powerful, each impossibly different, and each tied to Aria in ways she doesn’t yet understand. Nova Caelin, the lightning-born hacker who burns brighter than she should and falls harder than she admits. Iris Vale, a war-scarred photojournalist who sees truth in shadows and wants Aria with a hunger she won’t speak. Lys Amaranthe, a healer who wields wind and devotion, her love quiet but unyielding — ready to break just to hold Aria together. Elara Nyx, a siren in velvet, a former idol whose voice bends fire and minds alike — obsessed, devoted, dangerous. And far away, behind veils of memory and myth, waits Athena — Aria’s first lover, reborn through dreams and divine fragments, who gave her blood to awaken what slumbers in Aria’s veins. As everything begins to collapse, Aria is no longer just a girl with strange dreams. She’s becoming something else — a force of divine hunger, love, ruin, and choice. And each woman drawn to her must decide: will they save her, worship her… or be destroyed by her? Because the end isn’t coming. It’s already blooming — in crimson.

Amanda Wright and I had been together for eight years, but on the evening we got engaged, she went out drinking with her former flame. I witnessed them myself, entering a hotel together, their arms intertwined. I remained outside the hotel all night. The harsh wind left me frozen and further chilled my already aching heart. The freezing temperature took its toll, and I became gravely ill, spending two weeks in the hospital. This sickness prevented me from seeing my grandmother one final time before she died. When I questioned her, she replied, "It was just a casual drink with Jayden. Are you really going to blow this out of proportion?" Her response shattered any remaining hope I had for our relationship. Feeling utterly dejected, I silently walked away from her. But then she phoned, sobbing. "Yvo, are you actually going to end things with me?"

I wrote a book once. It was an unhinged fantasy born from my high-school brain, driven by loneliness and too many hormones. It was a world of beastmen, wild freedom, and the kind of romantic attention I could never get in real life. I poured every impossible desire into it: adventure, danger, and yes… a 'lot' of handsome partners. Before I knew it, I had a thousand chapters of pure escapism and pure thrill. Then on a college camping trip, I fell off a cliff. I expected to wake up in a hospital room but nope. I woke up on a soft field of grass, with air too fresh to belong anywhere on Earth. And then something moved behind me. Sticking out of my tailbone was... A tail. My tail? Yellow and black stripes and very, very real. I touched it. Completely real. My ears? Also gone—well, moved. They were now perched on top of my head like a confused jungle cat. And the outfit? Quite revealing, made of animal hide which matched my tail. What was going on? At first, I thought it was a prank. Or a dream. Or maybe karma is finally cashing in. But the more foreign memories evaded my mind, the clearer my situation became. This wasn't cosplay and it wasn't Earth, either. And—surprise—it wasn't even the world from my own book. Welp. I had been transported into a completely different Beastman world as a beast girl called Arinya. Sounds fun, right? Well… it would be, if I weren't apparently the ugliest duckling in the entire freaking savannah! Rejected by every potential mate I stumbled across and sneered at like a freaking eyesore. This was not how I planned my fantasy to come to reality. Trust me—if this is my fantasy come true, then someone needs to fire the author. But then again, after entering this world, I'm suddenly... Attractive. I mean, there's no change to my face and the freckles are still there, but for some reason, handsome beastmen begin to flock around me, because I smell... Pleasant. What's that all about?
