《Chameleon: My True Face》CHapter 13 - Mysterious Background

"It wasn't that bad… I have been through much worse." Wuxing smiled bitterly before his lips lifted into a teasing curve. "Also, it is supposed to be the doctor who does the asking and checking, right?"
"I guess it didn't hurt you much if you still have the energy to tease me," Miss Guan replied with a sweet smile, but somehow, Wuxing felt there was something wrong with her gentle response. He soon found out that she could be anything but gentle. She suddenly ripped apart the shirt that Wuxing used to clog the abdomen wound, causing Wuxing to feel a wave of sharp pain.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Miss Guan cooed as she prepared the fresh linen gauze that she would wrap around his torso. "I didn't hurt you, right?"
"I didn't even feel it," Wuxing grinned but one could tell he was faking it as the corners of his lips were twitching. He didn't even shout or groan as she began to clean his abdomen wound, causing the dried-up blood to tear once more, which quite impressed her, but that didn't mean she would let him go for teasing her.
Of course, as she played around, Miss Guan didn't forget her real duty of a doctor. Her long and dainty fingers swiftly moved, thoroughly cleaning the area around the wound. His skin burned from the medicine applied but he went through that smoothly.
"Why don't you turn around? I need to clean the one on your back as well, right?" Miss Guan asked with a smile as she flexed the fingers on her gloved hands, looking as if she's a predator ready to torture her poor prey.
"Cough… can Miss Guan be more gentle, please?"
Knowing that she definitely has more in store for him, he gave up and asked with a pleading voice to avoid unnecessary pain. After all, he wasn't a masochist. If he could easily prevent something like this, he would do it.
Hearing him begging like this, she patted Wuxing on the head and stopped playing around. "Good boy."
All she wanted was him to admit defeat. This beautiful lady doctor felt wonderful gaining the upper hand against such a tough-acting man.

"I'm so jealous. Miss Guan is so pretty," one of the prisoners who had been watching the whole event cried out jealously, seeing the famous lady doctor acting intimately with the new prisoner. He was already imagining himself in Wuxing's place. "I wonder, should I also get hurt so that she can take care of me like this?"
"Bro, if you are a masochist, I can beat you up for free. Don't you know she is a sadist? If you tease her or try to flirt, she will use all possible means to bring you pain while she fixes you up," the prisoner next to him warned him. As he said that, he shivered, inevitably recalling the last time he got hurt. He vowed to never flirt with this demoness ever again.
After Miss Guan was done temporarily securing all of his wounds, she asked curiously, "How did you end up in this situation?"
Feeling there was no harm in telling her, Wuxing vaguely described the situation. "I beat up the miner who tried to steal an Ethernum Crystal from me. That guard in the handcuffs, he tried to kill me after I didn't want to surrender to him."
Then, he spotted Long Qing approaching the group of guards. Wuxing added, glaring at the new warden, "Oh yeah, he was probably hired by that guy with cropped black hair. He hates me enough to kill me."
Miss Guan looked towards the group of guards, and her face turned cold right away when her gaze landed on Long Qing.
"I already had the displeasure of meeting him, so it's easy to believe what you said." Miss Guan nodded, piecing together the whole situation before she reached out her hand, saying, "Give it to me."
Wuxing immediately figured out she meant. He gave her the purple crystal which he had been keeping inside his pocket all this time. "Sure, I can't keep it anyway."
Miss Guan admired the purple beauty before she smiled mysteriously. "Wow, it is a big one… I will take this as payment, then."
Wuxing couldn't figure out exactly what 'payment' meant, but he didn't dig deeper. Weariness was already setting in from the blood loss, so he just let it go.

The black-haired doctor casually untied her hair, letting it tumble down to frame her exquisite face, before calling out to the two guards protecting her from behind, "Let's go. Carry him and follow me."
Right before they picked Wuxing up, she added, "Oh, if you drop him, you guys are dead."
This made them more stressed than usual. They didn't dare say a word other than affirmation as they knew that whenever she unties her hair, she meant serious business.
As they walked towards the prison guards, they could hear the leader of the patrol arguing with Long Qing over the custody of the green-eyed guard. It was obvious that the leader didn't want to let go of the offender—after the situation turned from bad to worse, all the guards on duty today would bear the repercussions if they were found to not have followed protocol.
"Was he the one who made the shots?"
The sexy doctor approached them, pointing at the green-eyed man who was already lifted up from the ground by Long Qing.
"Oh, Miss Guan, what a coincidence." Seeing that Miss Guan involved herself with this situation, Long Qing couldn't afford to offend her. Long Qing was interested in this beauty's background and he did his best to impress her when they met the first time, but unfortunately, it didn't go as well as he expected. "You look much better with your hair loose… you should wear it this way more often."
"What are you doing with him?" She purposely ignored his compliment but asked coldly instead.
"Him?" Long Qing smiled innocently, trying to act as natural as possible. He even avoided eye contact with Wuxing as if he didn't even know him. "I wanted to take him to the questioning room."
On the other hand, the leader of the guards looked like he found a savior.
"Miss Guan!" he called out to the famous lady doctor as he didn't have any other choice. He didn't trust this new warden who was meddling in things outside his jurisdiction. "Chief Warden ordered us to take him as he openly broke the rules and acted with the intent to kill."
Hearing the guard's accusations, Long Qing frowned for a second, before he suddenly pulled the green-eyed man with him, intending to bring the man away from them. "You guys talk to each other. I will go and make sure to question this guy thoroughly."
"Hold right there! I am not done yet," Miss Guan shouted expecting Long Qing to stop, but he actually acted as if he didn't hear her and continued to walk.
Bang!
The sound of a bullet shot sounded for the sixth time today. The bullet exploded the rocks next to Long Qing's right foot, forcing him to stop his movements.
Miss Guan put down the rifle she took from the leader of the patrol and said, "If he moves away for one more step, shoot him down."
"Yes!" The guards uniformly aimed their rifles at Long Qing without asking questions.
"How dare you aim your weapons at a superior officer?! I am the new warden of Sector Alpha! Do you want to get fired?" Long Qing angrily cried out to the guards.
Seeing the guards hesitate and falter, Miss Guan coldly rebutted, "I will inform the Chief Warden, our highest-ranking officer of what happened, so don't worry."
This made everyone assured, and they happily listened to her. They all heard that Miss Guan had a special connection with the Chief Warden and he complied with her every request.
Long Qing fumed from anger but seeing Miss Guan's cold face, he decided to give up and pushed the green-eyed guard forward after whispering something into his ear. Then loudly, he told her, "Fine, I wouldn't reject your request. You can do with him what you want."
"Bring him to me and give me a gun," she said.
Everyone was curious about what she wanted to do, but they still carried out her order without questioning her intention.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

Into the Feywild
I've never considered myself to be much of a fighter. In fact, I had no notion what it was all about. I couldn't envision a war amongst people, especially my own. In this odd realm, a timid half-elf has little chance of success. Especially with minimal experience. I've only fought as a means of survival, self-defense, if you will. I had known only humans, so the concept of elven culture and family was foreign to me. And yet, here I am, in the midst of a tremendous battle between two Feys and a God. I never planned for things to turn out this way, or for me to get caught in the great shambles of war—a conflict between good and evil. My two companions are practically strangers to me, knowing nothing but my name. This journey was not something I had planned or wished for, but it was what the Gods gave me.◈ ◈ ◈Meli, a young half-elf traveling the Material Plane, is unexpectedly captured while on her travels, only to become a member of an odd group of individuals. Crane, an older wizard castaway from his college for practicing unnatural magic, and Kurky, a youthful and lively gnome who is as fascinating as they come. Meli's curiosity gets the better of her as she chooses to accompany them on their not so concrete journey into the Feywild. Little did they know of the constant war raging within this woodsy plane. Maybe Meli will discover everything she's been looking for, embracing love and pleasure along the way. Or perhaps she'll become a part of something bigger. © Copyright to EmmeMeadows 2021
