sadslime's manga / #Heterosexual romance(113)

Nagi has never been good with men, so she's excited to work with the beautiful model Aran until she learns he's actually a man who does androgynous modeling for both gender styles. When Aran meets her, he announces he wants Nagi to be his partner for a shoot, and though she's unsure, they end up agreeing to a temporary dating relationship in return for Nagi doing the shoot, so she can get used to romantic situations. The plot is nothing special. Nagi comes off as a strong character, so it's a bit annoying how often she gets jerked around. I really like pretty boys like Aran though. Trigger warning: slut shaming.

Mai and Yuta have always just been gaming friends, so when his parents are trying to force him to get married, Mai offers to pretend to be his girlfriend to get them off his back. But when a stupid bet pushes them to get involved sexually, there seems to be no going back. Trigger warning: sexual harassment, aphrodisiac.

In a world where vampire attacks are a serious problem, Isuzu Osaka works to hunt them down, and he decides to enlist the help of the vampire Baroque, a known vampire killer, to hunt the latest criminal, even if that means breaking Baroque out of jail, himself. Though it causes a lot of trouble, the two are eventually allowed to work as a team, exterminating vampires together. I think they're both interesting characters, though Baroque is drawn quite young, so maybe avoid if you're sensitive to "lolicon" type settings.

Tono is a regular office worker and a bit of a pushover whose boss, Yukisada, takes her home one night to find not only is he her new landlord, but there was a fire in the complex, so he invites her to stay at his place while she looks for someplace new. Turns out Yukisada has been paying close attention to Tono for a long time, and now that they're living together, she can't help but start to notice him, too. It was fine but I lost interest around chapter 30. Trigger warnings: lying/manipulation, power imbalance, abusive/manipulative parent.

Himari is a beta who can't help but be a little jealous of omegas since all her relationships end since she doesn't enjoy sex. Kou is a doctor Himari hates for trying to buy the land out from under her parents' restaurant. At Himari's next phyiscal though, Kou triggers Himari's heat, and the two find out they are alpha and omega andthey somehow got bonded without either of them ever realizing it. A lot of forced and unbelievable things just to make the plot go forward. ️Trigger warning: dubcon(heat)

Tama is an unlucky girl who can see yokai. After getting fired from her most recent job, she runs into the job broker Ginichi and begs him to find her a new job. He primarily works with yokai, but he offers a her a job at his office, saying her presence will bring them in. Trigger warnings: wrongful accusation, stalker, kidnapping, attempted murder.

Zenjirou is a corporate slave who gets summoned to another world by the queen, Aura, a sexy lady who offers him the perfect, responsibility-free life of his dreams as her husband.

While working as the maid to the spoiled princess, Feli ends up falling for her scheme and getting stuck in a room with Ramel, the prime minister's son, while they are both under the effects of a love potion. When they're discovered, they're immediately pushed to get married, despite Ramel having a fiance already, and Feli feels terrible and decides it's best to divorce Ramel as quickly as possible. What she doesn't know is that Ramel fell for her at first sight and he's just terrible at expressing it. Nothing about this one stuck out to me story-wise, but the smut scenes are decent. Trigger warnings: drug(aphrodisiac), bullying.

With nowhere else to go, Adeline offers herself, expecting to die. To her surprise, the dragon god comes for her and says they will be married if they can live together this whole month without ever once lying to each other. Trigger warnings: cheating, murder.
