Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When she saw how the atmosphere in the room was relatively calm, Shi Guang let out a sigh of relief . She was worried that Qian Xun might have been scolded to tears by Lu Yanzhi by then .
“Sorry! We’re late!” Shi Guang tugged at Lu Yanchen as they sat down on the empty seats before calling for extra bowls and chopsticks from the attendants .
After the attendants had left, the atmosphere within the room was tense once more .
“Erm, Yanzhi, I was called by the provincial team for a meeting in the afternoon . We just happened to be at Qian Xun’s place, and thus I had her help me look after Xiao Bai for a while . ” Shi Guang explained softly .
Lu Yanzhi’s expression was cold as he merely glanced at her once without speaking . Shi Guang then looked at Qian Xun . “Thank you so much for taking care of Xiao Bai for the afternoon!”
Qian Xun glared at her coldly without speaking either .
Shi Guang: “…”
She glanced at Lu Yanchen with a side eye and begged for help with her gaze . Even though he received her distress call, he sat there without moving, just like a solid ice sculpture .
He took the food that he had just cooked in the hotpot and placed it in Shi Guang’s bowl . “Didn’t you say that you were hungry? Hurry and eat!”
After Shi Guang ate it, she took the initiative to get food for Qian Xun . “Qian Xun, you eat too . ”
Qian Xun’s gaze at her was way beyond the freezing point . How was she in the mood to eat!
She replied frostily, “It’s fine, I already ate . I just remembered that I have something on, so I’ll leave first . ”

THWACK!
The moment Qian Xun spoke finish, Lu Yanzhi slammed his chopsticks onto the table .
Shi Guang froze up and looked at Lu Yanchen—he was unmoved in the slightest bit and was still eating .
She tugged at his sleeves with her fingers . Lu Yanchen turned to look at her, his lips curling slightly . Through his eyes, Shi Guang could make out amusement at her misfortune!
Shi Guang was stunned .
What sort of a situation was this! She was almost scared to death by Lu Yanzhi, and he was still in the mood to laugh at her?
She then looked at Qian Xun—even though she seemed rather calm, Shi Guang could tell that the other was putting on a strong front .
Shi Guang then chuckled at Qian Xun . “Erm, do you want to stay for a little while longer?”
“I’m feeling a little uncomfortable, so I’ll head back first . ” With that, Qian Xun even faked a few coughs .
She wanted to act as though she was unwell to leave first . Naturally, Shi Guang knew of her intentions . Since the atmosphere was somewhat tense, it was best for her to leave first as well .
Before Shi Guang could agree to it, Lu Yanzhi had suddenly decided to speak up slowly, “Why? You’re really sick, huh? Do you need me to take you to the hospital?”
Shi Guang: “…”
Those words… didn’t sound quite right? Lu Yanzhi was showing concern for Qian Xun and wanted to take her to the hospital?
Qian Xun rejected coldly . “No thanks!”
“Oh no, how would that do? Xiao Bai really LIKES you, and even said he wanted you to be his godmother . If we were to leave you unwell and unattended to, wouldn’t that make us seem too heartless…?” Lu Yanzhi replied with a knowing tone, even dragging out his last words .

Lu Yanchen looked at his brother, while Shi Guang was stunned . As for Qian Xun, she was petrified .
When Xiao Bai mentioned making Qian Xun his godmother the other day, part of it was in spite . But, for his father to mention it before so many people, Xiao Bai flushed red with embarrassment . “D-Daddy…”
Lu Yanzhi, on the other hand, was glaring coldly at Qian Xun . “I’m agreeing to it now . You can call her mummy from now on . ”
Lu Yanchen’s lips smirked unnoticeably . “…”
Shi Guang had lost her mind by now . “…”
What was going on here? In her mind, the plot should have gone the way of a cold, sadistic attitude toward Qian Xun . Why was it one of sweet aloofness right now?

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!

The Step Brother
"Perhaps you need a reminder?" he suggested as he rose to his feet. Andie sat back on her heels, her neck craning as her eyes remained on her stepbrother's. "Hmm?" he pressed as he towered over her."I-if you think so," her soft reply drifted up to Eric. Then, she returned to all fours, but only for a moment, before lowering her front to the floor.Eric watched, his face blank, but his heart pounding as Andie stretched her arms above her head as if she were worshipping something. She adjusted her knees on the soft carpet, leaving a small gap between her thighs as she offered her bottom for the "reminder" Eric spoke of."What a good girl..." he murmured as he approached, dropping to one knee beside Andie whose head rolled over so she could see him. He studied her as his hand ran up the smooth skin of her thigh. "You're a submissive little thing, hmm?"In response to his question, she simply nodded. Their eyes met and Eric saw a girl without any walls up. Her guard was as down as he'd ever seen it. She was relaxed, comfortable, and wholly in her element.____When Andie's mother and step-father die unexpectedly, her elusive nineteen-year-old stepbrother comes home from college to be the legal guardian that his father assigned.

Softest Lips | on hold
𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐧-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝-"I just kissed the softest lips that god has ever madeAnd I am so in love with the girl to whom these lips he gave." Orianne was a lover girl, whom some considered a hopeless romantic, but she wouldn't dare let the opinions of others knock her off her pivot. She was a young woman who knew what she wanted, and to her, there was nothing wrong with that. She desired the husband, children, dates, random gifts, trips, family outings, and so on.Some would say the reason she can't keep a man is because her standards are high. Which is a ridiculous take. Yes, her standards may be "high," but that's because her father set the tone. She knows what she wants and how she's supposed to be treated, and if you're not giving her that, then you have to go. Out of the few men she has dealt with, she lets them know beforehand what she wants, and it's not her fault that they choose to lead her on under the impression that they wanted the same thing. Another reason men tend to leave her alone is because she's a woman of status, a woman of her word, and a woman about her business. She handles her own and has her own which tends to bruise a man's ego. When asked what she brings to the table, she has a solid answer. She doesn't just bring herself or her body-that's the bonus-she brings communication, trust, comprehension, stability, submission, commitment, and so on. The main question of the matter is, how will Miss. Orianne react when a 19 year old wants to sweep her off her feet and give her everything she wants and more?𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲: me
