It's hard to win when your competition is small, cute, and calls your (future) wife their mommy.
Lara spent six years doing odd jobs to sustain her five-year-old kids. She fled from her birth town after noticing some of her children's weird habits.
They growl when they fight, and their teeth can cut the skin like it's nothing. They prefer meat when it's cooked raw. They howl at the moon when they don't want to sleep.
However, they're her children.
She's been on the run ever since to protect them. She knows nothing about the stranger she met that day and whom she spent the night with. Even the details are blurry in her mind, except for that weird, compelling attraction that brought them together.
When she scores an interview at the most prestigious company in Norwich City, she thinks her life will turn for the better. Until she meets him again.
Nathaniel Woods, Alpha Nate, is the CEO of LY Corp. A fated night of six years ago, he found his true mate. Unfortunately, that woman fled after their passionate night, leaving no traces for him to follow.
A twist of fate makes them meet again, and he's settled on not letting her escape.
But this time, she's not alone. There are two pups with her, growling and fighting, firmly set on not letting him get to their mommy.
WARNINGS:
Possessive male lead and even more possessive little buns.
Slight misunderstandings, not too annoying (hopefully). The male lead is doting, but life is difficult with two jealous pups preventing him from wooing his (future) wife.
The story follows other characters along with the leads.
Smut content (signaled at the beginning with a warning).
Werewolves are a little different from usual, so please bear with my version of the trope ;)
If you can't stand too much cuteness, do not open this book.
If you're allergic to dog fur, stay further away. Characters here are wolves, but some of them grow ears and tail when they're excited (or claws when they feel threatened).
This book is dedicated to all the parents single-handedly raising their cubs

Popular Reviews
Due to the multitude of plotlines, the story occasionally feels scattered as we encounter a wide array of characters, causing the main storyline to become somewhat obscured. This is acceptable to an extent, but if you're like me, after a while, you start longing for more development regarding the primary protagonists, particularly the first ones introduced, Sui and Vermillion (also refer to my recent review of Volume 5).
The artwork is somewhat simplistic. While I wasn't expecting visuals akin to Vampire Knight, the lack of intricate detail was perhaps the weakest aspect of this series. The female character is visually appealing most of the time, but I can't say the male characters qualify as bishonen. In some panels, their eyes weren't even drawn! The male characters lacked eye detail in all panels. Admittedly, since it was created in 1993, the style may differ from current trends. However, the storyline might compensate for this. At least one person has mentioned they prefer this series over some popular shojo titles due to its perceived depth and meaning.
There aren't many discussions available about this series. I suspect it wasn't very popular.
If you're seeking romance, this series might not fulfill your expectations, at least up to Volume 5, where I currently am.
More information (possible spoiler)
I find this topic highly complex, as I previously indicated. Creating a real human being and wielding such power is undeniably perilous. One striking moment in this series occurred when Vermillon, one of the robots, stated that Sui, the human girl he resides with, means a great deal to him but not precisely as a sister or lover—he has no 'label' for her.
My Rating:
Story: B
Art: C
Recommended: The storyline is captivating thus far, and there are segments that could indeed provoke thought. Overall, it's a commendable exploration of this subject matter, and the concept of "love" (I use quotations because perhaps it's not the precise term to describe what a robot feels for another or a human?) is well-considered and not overly dramatic or unrealistic (based on what I've read so far). Of course, there are the typical expected elements of shojo along with the usual plot devices and concerns regarding robot-human interactions we've encountered elsewhere, such as in Isaac Asimov's robot stories or more recent works like Chobits (which likely differs from this series, possibly because it targeted a male audience with some fanservice, but I'm digressing...). I'm curious about the direction this will take and will continue to look forward to future releases.
