《I'm Not An Emperor's Sweetie Pie! (BL)》Chapter 5
Advertisement
"Come out," ordered the deep, cold voice.
A masked man covered in all black, except his eyes, came out from within the shadows of a study and immediately knelt and saluted the handsome man sitting at the table and writing something in a book.
"Your Majesty, I've come to report. There are two of them in the palace."
The hand paused before continuing writing again.
"Your orders, your Majesty," the shadow guard inquired.
Placing the writing brush aside, the Emperor leaned back into the chair. His cold, emotionless red eyes looked up at the kneeling shadow guard. The eyes so cold that could chill the person to the bones. And those silky silver hair and white skin only accentuated those red eyes.
"Let them be. Observe them only if they're not causing any big trouble. They will try to contact their master soon," he replied, expressionlessly.
Knock! knock!
"Your Majesty, Captain Hua DeMing has arrived," came the eunuch's voice from behind the doors.
Emperor Song Longwei flicked his hand and the shadow guard disappeared without a trace. Only the branches of the tree outside the study window rustled a little.
"Enter."
Hua DeMing was the leader of the Emperor's personal guards. He was a good looking man strong enough to be the General and have also led armies to the war. But now, on Emperor's orders, he became the captain of the Emperor's personal guards. The Emperor also treated him like a personal assistant. This job, he found it more difficult.
"Your Majesty," Hua DeMing knelt, greeting the Emperor.
"Rise."
"Thank you Your Majesty." After standing, he continued, "Your Majesty, your suspicions about Minister Hui were correct. He's the one who fiddled with the funds. What would you like to do with him, your Majesty?"

Suddenly, the air pressure in the room changed, making the captain cold sweat.
Fortunately, the air returned to normal quickly, making Hua DeMing sighing in relief internally.
"Investigate further. Find out all those involved with minister Hui. They will all be punished." Emperor Song narrowed his eyes briefly before going back to stoic face.
"Yes, your Majesty." Hua DeMing silently lit a candle in his heart for minister and his partners in crime. The Emperor's punishments were really cruel for such acts.
"And get ready. We will be going outside to meet a lead today."
"Yes, your Majesty."
"You may leave now."
Hua Deming bowed before he left. These kinds of sudden rendezvous of Emperor always gave him headache because it's super dangerous outside! He couldn't relax for a minute out there. Although his Majesty was much stronger and powerful and his shadow guards would always be protecting him from shadows but he still couldn't help but worry.
English isn't my first language, so I apologize for grammar mistakes.

Sweet Minds
"No one can see it, some can feel it, and only the few can use it. We belong to the few." Marith Merryfield felt anything but merry that morning. She found herself waiting for a delayed train on a deserted platform, in the freezing cold of the Dutch autumn. Just when the strangeness is making her consider turning around and going back home an empty train rolls into the station. For reasons unclear to this day she decides to get onboard. An unlikely, and quite impossible, train accident is about to hurtle her into a world she had always suspected existed. It was a dark and absurd place she had rejected and suppressed when she was young. Now she would need that dormant part of herself to survive. After a brief hospitalization she must choose between two continents and finds herself reluctantly boarding a plane to Oregon to be reunited with her shadows. She returns to the town she grew up in, which is where her father still lives and her childhood memories linger. By the end of the week the mysterious train accident turns out to be the least of her problems. Her life was never supposed to become this serious this fast. Through an improbable and unfortunate series of events she is soon introduced to a motley crew of characters that appear to be carrying the same struggles through life. They possess a familiar sense of inadequacy and insecurity. Marith realizes that for the first time in her life she has found herself a tribe, or, as they prefer to call it, a Chain. She is introduced to a world of Prophets, Runners and Mages led by an Oracle and a Watchmaker. Over the course of several weeks Marith learns that, together with her Chain, she is expected to save this fabric of reality, by fighting a mysterious and immortal creature and his aggressive pet. In order to have a chance at overcoming this force of nature she has to revisit the darkest and most desolate corners of her mind. ***** The total word count of the first 12 chapters amounts to about 85.000 words. The total word count of the first 30 chapters will amount to about 225.000 words. My chapters range, roughly, from 5.000 to 10.000 words. I post with irregular intervals, on random days and at different times. I hope you will enjoy the story! English is not my first language and I am very much open to constructive criticism. Disclaimer: I regularly use impressionistic or abstract language on purpuse, when I think it might benefit the story.
