Synopsis

In 2295 Mars, Sigrun Fjeld has survived through sex, violence and dissociation: killing monsters by day, selling her body by night, all while chasing the ghost of Ivar, the man who sacrificed everything to save her. Her mental focus has dropped to bottom. Her heart is armored in ice. She can barely remember what genuine human connection feels like.

Until Xin, a gentle programmer raising an adorable Radi-Mon child, starts seeing past her strength and beauty to the broken woman beneath. He doesn’t want the bedchamber goddess everyone else pays for. He wants her: scars, trauma, and all.

But when a fifty-thousand-credit bounty forces them into an alliance with three others, Sigrun must deal with more than just sex and monsters. In a world where the Nucleus Watch system tracks trust and betrayal, where sharing meals and slaying monsters both play a part in survival, where lovemaking literally transfer psionic abilities, she’ll have to decide: keep chasing ghosts, or risk her shattered heart on the living.

Skarn, the Fenris Horde’s Primarch, has hunted Sigrun for over a decade, obsessed with making her his breeding mate. These five broken people might save Mars—if Sigrun can learn to save herself first.

What to Expect:
💕 Slow-burn romance where trust must be earned (Sigrun/Xin endgame)
👥 Found family dynamics with a team that becomes everything
🐲 An adorable baby dragon who ships everyone
⚔️ Combat that serve the plot (not dictating it)
🌟 Western sci-fi meets Eastern spirituality
🔞 Explicit consensual sex scenes include: Survival sex work (not romanticized), past trauma, violence, BDSM testing trust in later chapters
☯️ Sexual cultivation mechanics where body fluids grant psionic power

——-
📚 Complete arc per volume | 5 volumes planned

🟢 Updates Tue/Sat; Daily for the first month!

If you want purely heroic characters, this isn’t for you. If you believe broken people can heal through love and choose to be more than their worst moments—welcome to Nucleus!

★ 4.6

Lonely_fox

After losing the one person who taught her how to live, Seina, a fox girl, is trying to pick herself up after a long period of depression and loneliness. The story follows her adventures as she makes friends, strengthens her bonds, grows as a person, explores the world and beats up some idiots along the way.

The pace is mostly cozy, focusing on slice-of-life moments. Such as cooking, healing the troubled with her magic. And, very important, collecting cute underwear. Expect some slightly perverted habits here and there.

As Seina continues her journey, she will discover that her darkness has a much deeper origin than she ever thought.

-----

* The Interlude at the beginning is a moving, raw, and emotional piece that simply came to me one day. It's a prelude that dives into the core cause of the protagonist's suffering. The normal pace of the story is much more relaxed, as promised.
* This is my first story, I am still finding my style and rhythm, so please be patient.
* English is my second language, I learned it in a very practical way, so I'm still learning the grammar. Again, please be patient, I'm improving.
* There will be some little dark parts, but overall it's a nice and cute story, or so I pretend.
* The " " are for dialogues, and the ' ' are for important thoughts.

Finally, at least ten chapters ahead, exclusive chapters and pictures on Patreon, please take a look if you like.
