《Silver》27

Ethan's POV
Silver fell asleep in my arms and I couldn't help but feel pure contentment. Although there was a lunatic on the loose set out to destroy our family I couldn't have felt more at home.
Our family. I thought to myself looking down at her angelic face.
"Daddy!" I heard Aiddan cry out.
Gently I set Silver against the pillows as I slipped out of the bed. Hurriedly I make my way to Aiddan's room. Looking around I made sure nobody was hurting him. As soon as my eyes landed on his small frame standing by his bed I relaxed.
"What is it, Little Man?" I asked softly, squatting down to his level to look at his shy face.
"I-I had an accident." he whispered ashamedly.
Looking at his bed I see that there is a small area of the sheets that were wet. Picking him up I grabbed the edges of the sheets and wrapped them up into a ball. "That's alright. We will just go set them in the washer and you can sleep with mommy and me tonight."
Grinning, he hugged me around my neck. "Thank you!"
"Not a problem." I laugh as I walk us to the laundry room so I could throw the sheets in the washing machine.
As soon as I had done that we made our way to my bedroom. Setting him down by Silver I sat myself on the outside of them. Aiddan curled up against his mother's stomach and she unconsciously pulled him against her chest in an orderly manner. Smiling, I turned out the lights and got into bed behind Silver and drew them both tightly against me.
This is how life should be. Whoever says that fatherhood and having a family is a burden is sorely mistaken. This. This right here is the best thing to happen to me.

With that thought I feel asleep to the sounds of their breathing.
Unknown (G.V.) POV
So, they thought extra security would save them?
A background check?
What am I? An amateur? I know how to pass through people's lives undetected. Call it a skill of mine, a talent.
Laughing I started to type out another letter for my sweet Silver. I was starting to enjoy this game of cat and mouse. Maybe I wouldn't kill them off right away. It was a pleasure to watch Ethan as he struggles to stop me from taking his family away.
As I finished the letter I proofread it to make sure I didn't give my identity away. Sometimes I get carried away with my writings and tell too much about myself. Which also means I tend to have to rewrite my letters. As I made sure there wasn't anything to give me away I pressed the send button on my laptop.
"Sir, would you like to order yet?" A young waitress asked as she looked at me blushing.
Flashing her a brilliant smile I winked at her. "Yeah. You're number."
If I couldn't have Silver now then I might as well have some fun for a while, right?
Laughing, the foolish girl wrote her number down on a napkin and handed it to me. Before she left I ordered a coffee to go. As she went to prepare it I sat back and thought about what I needed to do next.
Hmm? What should I do about that pesky brother of hers? I asked myself.
Smiling to myself I gazed out the window. I mean, freak accidents happen all the time. Especially in New York. Big cities. Big accidents. Maybe a failed robbery that just happens to kill him.

System Only Gives Me Useless Gifts
Li Yun grew up with a system that gave him useless gifts. He wanted a reward that could prove the existence of the system, but ended up with abstract gifts like culture. Without physical proof, he was stuck wondering whether his mind was truly sane, all the while dealing with the reality of life. How will the "useless" system help Li Yun navigate medical school, hospital politics, criminal cases, treasure hunting, farming and cooking? Author's Note: This is a slice-of-life novel about a doctor with a mission-type system. It's written as a faux modern Chinese novel, so there are many 1-off characters and episodic mini arcs. Just a bit of warning, the tone of the story is very different after the childhood arc and jumpy as it chronicles Li Yun's life. I'm trying to make it less apparent in the rewrite, but there are still a lot of time skips. RR is the rewrite version, no set schedule. See webnovel for OG. scribblehub is a combo of both . I recommend scribblehub since it has pictures. Copyrights of the novel and cover are owned by Chocomug. Novel is free to read and download for personal use, such as offline reading, only.
