Monster Mashups – The Slut Hour by Kris P. Kreme<\/p><\/div>\n

All throughout Japan and South Korea, pop stars and female celebrities are turning slutty. And it always seems to happen after an encounter with a menacing unseen threat between midnight and 1 a.m.<\/p>\n

The attacks which the media calls The Slut Hour are claiming more and more popular names, the latest of which is Cherry Blossum, a sweet perky pop star from Japan known by fans as Cherry Pop. And when Cherry Pop truly pops the cherry on her own slutty desires most unexpectedly… something needs to be done.<\/p>\n

But can two covert teams, Japanese police detectives and South Korean vloggers uncover the truth, or will they too be attacked by whoever these mind and body manipulating monsters are? <\/p>\n

Over 14,000 Words of Kreme!<\/p>\n

There’s no escape from the monstrously menacing and maddening amount of new reading to enjoy this Readers Choice Month! And it all begins now, with a brand new entry into a special series called Monster Mashups, which tells the twisted tales of mind maddening manipulations and body-shaping brashness purely through the eyes of the unsuspecting victims themselves.<\/p>\n

But this time, not just one well-known Kreme villain of the past, but two are teaming up in a never-before-scene global plot which has gone unsolved throughout Japan and South Korea for over a month now. Who is behind the attacks? Are they really attacks? And what force is causing otherwise innocent Asian pop stars and celebrities to turn slutty between the hours of midnight and one a.m.? <\/p>\n

Get ready for the biggest opening of Readers Choice ever, a lingering paced mystery of madness to slowly enter the twisted world of Monster Mashups and the biggest mystery is just who are the monsters behind what reporting media has begun to call The Slut Hour?<\/p>\n

It all begins with an up and coming J-pop star leaving the stage after a late-night concert in a Tokyo arena. Cherry Blossum is a sweet girl, known for her peppy upbeat pop songs that get stuck in one’s head. But she is also commonly called Cherry Pop by fans, which of course as she has attained millions of fans in a relatively short time has sexualized the young Japanese pop star. <\/p>\n

But the truth is Cherry Pop remains an introvert and after such a concert as this, needs time to be alone with her thoughts, the arena security having closed off all the lower decks, parking and maintenance, to let her walk and cool off, relax before an important 1 a.m interview. <\/p>\n

But will she make that interview… and if so, will Cherry Pop be truly popping the cherry on what a naughty slut she can be, thanks to the footsteps following her in that underground parking deck? Someone is targeting her, and the world may never know who unless a team of investigators goes undercover to find out the truth.<\/p>\n

In a highrise law enforcement building, Japanese police detectives Kenji Tanaka and the beautiful Emi Nakamura are teaming up with worldwide popular South Korean vloggers Min Lee and the attractive Suzy Kim to finally solve the mystery of exactly how these perversions of good decent women are even taking place, not to mention finally catching who is responsible.<\/p>\n

And while they debate among themselves exactly what the crime really is, whether hormones are just behind the seemingly sinister plot to defile young Asian talented girls, the truth will be revealed as they themselves unknowingly become targets when splitting up to try and stop the monsters.<\/p>\n

Will Kenji and Emi become much closer to the suspect or suspects than they ever planned at a packed concert venue in Seoul? Will Emi Nakamura find herself facing off against the perp backstage only to still not know who it is… the devil mask he wears as menacing as the attitude this mystery man has? And will her partner be able to rescue her from his clutches in time or will there truly be a backstage entertainment no one expected… least of all them?<\/p>\n

And back in Japan, waiting in the police highrise downtown, are Min Lee and Suzy Kim really safe… or is someone in a mask making a housecall directly to them in order to turn up the heat on their own vlogging? Is it hypnosis or some other twisted nefarious mind-altering scheme that can turn even Suzy Kim into a determined slut between the hours of midnight and 1 a.m.? And just what familiar monsters from the world of Kreme are behind all of this.<\/p>\n

Find out as Readers Choice Month begins, the one month every reader has as many choices to make as they could ever want… and this year, it’s bigger than ever before!<\/p>\n
