《Stranger In My Home》Let's commence
Advertisement
It wasn't often that Sungjae made his way to the lower floor in inspection but when he did, he certainly did not come unannounced.
It was fairly surprising and distressing for the finance team to see Sungjae , standing in front of their office with no previous warning asking them to bring out the files reporting all new partnerships and contracts acquired in the past 3 years.
I mean it was normal for a boss to want to check on things especially the financial aspects but in this case Sungjae normally would have asked Caleb to take on the task.
Now it was not a crime to want to know about your company finances, it was not weird to want to change the direction and area of investments . What was weird was the conversation he had with his personal secretary and pa ,Miss Currie.
She was a well-respected woman, with good education and from a remarkable family , she was really befitting for the role; reason why she was one of the people he trusted the most. She had equal trust in her boss and had full intention to devote herself to the company but what he had requested of her had been... unexpected to say the least.
"- Miss Currie" he said, voice flat, eyes boring into her, as he studied her with a stern look.
"-Yes sir " She replied , her composure not faltering
It was unusual for her to be called out in the middle of other this, like this but she was sure that whatever Sungjae had wanted to talk about with her ,she would be able to handle it.
Sungjae looked her up and down.
His trailing on her slim figure particularly on her legs , on the little exposed area of her skin were a long slit ran, showing off her skin coloured thighs.
Sungjae smirked, before standing up.
Just like him, his secretary was on the younger side still in her mid-twenties. Despite her self-restraint and her resilience to become an essential member of the company she was a girl after all, an ambitious one at that.

She did not act impulsively like the rest of the idiotioc women he unfortunately had employed. No, she was sly and calculative, she knew how to adapt just like a chameleon
Sungjae had noticed the subtle changes in her demeanour, she wore more revealing clothes but not revealing enough to tell she was stirring away from their formal attire, She had replaced her round glasses with more suitable contact lenses showing off the beautiful marine eyes that she had. Her skin, previously unobstructed by any artificial chemicals, was now clad in a thin layer of makeup, not enough for you to comment on but enough for it to enhance her features.
Sungjae's tall self-began circling her , he did not actually stare at her, keeping his hands folded behind his back but he did allow himself to brush his shoulders to hers causing the woman to shiver as she felt a buzz of electricity hit her body.
She did not move still, keeping her breathing steady and eyes focused straight.
Sungjae smiled to himself.
Yes, she was definitely going to be useful.
"Miss Currie" he said his voice softening in a suspicious manner
"-How long have you been working under me ?" he asked her directly
Miss Currie or Stephanie if you will, blinked out in surprise, she clearly was not expecting the question, she took a couple seconds deliberating on what direction this conversation was going to go, yet she answered earnestly.
" 3 years and counting sir" she replied shooting a straight answer
Sungjae made a noise of approval ,as if he actually knew how long she had been working there for...
"- 3 years, 3 mighty years. Don't you think?" he said ,this time his voice coming straight to her eyes as his body came closer, he hovered behind for a long minute in which Stephanie had stilled ever form of breathing
"- I...I have been able to work by side thanks to you sir, without your leadership and dedication sir...I probably would have not come so far " she said, this time her voice softened and her eyes actually glanced around the room trying to locate the man in question

'Bingo' he thought as he made his way in front of her, his breath fawning over her face, as he put away a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
Stephanie gasped softly, her eyes searching for a meaning as she stared directly at him. She was a tall girl Afterall.
Sungjae forced the little corner of his mouth upwards, to satisfy the woman in his arms as he softly ran gentle circles on her covered arms.
After a few moments of them staring into each other he scooped her face, tilting her chin upwards as he leaned in his lips barely grazing against her.
Her reaction was immediate , her body jerked forward trying to close what was left of the space between them as whine left her lips.
Sungjae mentally chuckled
He spoke into her lips in a sultry tone
"-Would you do anything for me?"
She groaned, desperate . Needing some form of contact, something to anchor herself with.
"- yes " she said , her voice breathy
"-Anything , anything you want. " Gasping as if she needed air. "-Please come up please just anything... "
"-Good girl," said Sungjae as he chuckled before finally rewarding him by firmly planting his lips against her.
Stephanie was now gone, she clinged to him like her life depended on it, she bit and sucked at his lips wanting to deepen the intimate moment but just as abruptly as all of this started ,it all ended.
Sungjae pulled off, leaving breathless and confused as she blinked trying to regain her hazy view.
Within the time that she had taken to compose herself . He had stridden back to his desk bringing out what seemed like a file and a big red envelope at the same time.
He put in in her hand, his voice going back to plain and unimpressed as he instructed her
"-In here is a list of people" You will contact them and allocate them to all our branches, I want them both in high and lower positions, I need eyes everywhere" he simply stated
Stephanie glanced back at him still confused, her chest as still heaving as she softly panted but her voice remained steady
"- The lower rank positions are easy to fill but the directors and managers…. I can't just dismiss them, not without a reason"
She said warily
Sungjae stared at her with an icy glare
"-I don't care what you do and how you do it. Just get it done" he said
Before turning his back to her
"- You're dismissed" he said heartlessly
Stephanie was still mildly confused as she stared at the envelope but still listened to his command as she started walking towards the exit.
"Ah Miss Currie" he said, making her stop in her track, her heart beating fast at the glimmer of hope
"-remember, everything you want could be given to you if you stay a good girl" he said ,not sparing a glance at her. The statement did not actually make sense.
But somehow Stephanie had grasped the situation, her eyes glimmering with something like determination
She straightened her posture and continued walking her way out, but not before adding a comment
"-your wish is my command sir".
Sungjae's laughter was heard through the halls, as the steady click of her heels dissipated with the distance

Elder Cultivator
Anton is a great-grandfather. He is living quite a happy life, despite his advanced age and declining health… until a group of cultivator bandits moves into the area. The nearby guardians of the area, the Order of Ninety-Nine Stars, are unable to track them down as they continue to ravage nearby towns. During one desperate winter Anton is out on a hunt when his family- his entire village- is killed or taken as slaves by the bandits. He lacks the strength to fight them, and he wasn’t even present for their arrival to die with his loved ones. At the pit of his despair, he wonders if he ever had any chance to change things. What could he even do? He cannot even pull his best bow, and his eyesight is failing. If he had been a cultivator… perhaps there might have been a chance, but he was decades- perhaps even most of his life- too late. Notes on cultivation levels: There are five general stages of cultivation, though the fifth is extremely rare. Each cultivation style might have their own name for the stages. 1. Body Tempering 2. Spirit Building/ occasionally System Creation (Ninety-Nine Stars) 3. Constellation Formation (Ninety-Nine Stars) 4. Life Transformation/Galaxy Construction (Ninety-Nine Stars) 5. Ascension Cover picture courtesy of gej302.

The Mystifying Diviner
Content warning, there is cursing in the story and there will be some pretty heavy sexual innuendos in it also. I don’t really plan to write gore, but there will be fight scenes. Fair warning to readers, it is a slow start. But hopefully it is enjoyable for you to read. Follow the story of an old chef who was lucky to be selected to become a system host. Well maybe not so lucky, because gaining the system killed him. He will be given a system that might not be the best match for him. While also having to deal with a snarky system monitor who might not be that helpful most of the time. He will also use his new found powers to enjoy life in a new younger body. What you can expect from this story is bad writing, poor grammar, and slow pacing maybe. Food, cooking, comedy, slice of life, fighting, exploring, tournaments, scamming and probably face slapping. I mean who doesn’t like a good face slapping? This is my take on a cultivation story, a lot of Eastern stuff will be crammed into with a mix of Western. This story started as a goal for myself to write 60,000 words in a month for NaNoWriMo. I was able to do it even with taking days off and not writing. I plan to keep writing the story, but at a slightly slower pace. I am aiming for 2-3 chapters a week now with about 4-7k words written. This is only posted on RoyalRoad currently, and I have no plans to change that for now. Cover art is by Jack0fheart [Participant in the 2021 Royal Road Writathon Challenge for the month of November 2021]
