《Tiger Wife, Lion Husband (Love In The Realms) #1》Chapter 15: Little Tiger? (1)
Advertisement
Xue Hai's wedding was going to be held in three days while Xue Liang felt that she deserved it. Consort Wan Bao couldn't even explain at all or else she would reveal that she was trying to get Xue Liang with Prince Yu. Consort Ling Fe showed up to Xue Liang looking at her. "You came to ask me right?"
"No, I came to check on you. I was worried and I got the story from Rong. What you did was good. I'm glad you weren't hurt." Her mother looked at her as they stared at the pond of koi fish.
"Mother, do you ever think about going back to a free life?" Xue Laing then decided to ask if her mother ever missed being free and roaming.
"Hmm... En, I sometimes do but if I did then I would be leaving my children and love. Having all of you is my happiness. A mother would always love their children but there are those that would take them for granted. Never take your children for granted." Her mother looked at her as she nodded. "Alright you can go. I need to help your father with the wedding." Her mother said lastly and hugged Xue Liang as she left. Su Rong was with her now as they decided to get out. They dressed as men as they went out.
"Ah, we're going to spend the time of our life right now. It's been a long time." Xue Liang then dragged Su Rong's hand as they went out. "Mother was going out to look for something and probably spend time with an old friend." Her mother nodded as her brother just watched them go.

"Don't let those two girls go. Kill them." Consort Wan Bao then told the men in black suits to bow and ran off.

"It seems as though my lover is very angry." A man then hugs Consort Wan Bao from behind as she smiles.
"Don't think I won't let her off. My daughter is my beloved." She said with anger.
"Don't forget our son. Your daughter isn't mine but your son is." He only hugged her as she smiled.

Down at the market street Su Rong and Xue Liang were walking in the area as they went from one shop to another. Going around to the other areas as they smiled walking beside one another. Night came as it was empty streets now. Both girls needed to head back but they heard footsteps behind them as they found it odd.
"Rong" Xue Liang called her as she nodded. Both started running as they didn't bring their swords. Running, they had jumped onto the rooftops. Fighting the spies but they knew who had sent them.
Su Rong and Xue Liang were then separated running into the forest. The forest was the only place they knew well. The spies threw poison needles as it hit Xue Liang. Both shifted into the forest with no spies around as they went different ways.
"Su Rong! We'll meet back at home!" Xue Liang then roared from afar as it echoed through the forest. Xue Liang then charged at the spies as they didn't expect a tiger to be in the forest.
She scratched and clamped down the spies with her razor teeth as she took down three. The rest retreated, she was feeling the poison but her body was large so it would take longer for the poison. Xue Liang stumbled upon seeing Liu Gang was fighting with suspicious men.
Creeping on them, she soon saw him cut the throats of the men. Leaving one alive as his sword was at his throat.

"Who sent you?" Liu Gang gave off a deadly stare at the man.
"P-Prince Y-Ye, he sent us to get rid of you because you are a wall to him blocking his way." The man stuttered as he then pulled out a small dagger.
Xue Liang struck the man as he screamed in pain. Biting the man at the throat as he died. Xue Liang panted looking at Liu Gang. He met her eyes, seeing the necklace still remaining around her neck.
"Little tiger?" She looked at him with her amber eyes as she fell to her side with the poison starting to take effect. She soon started coughing blood while Liu Gang ran to her. Seeing poison needles struck in her as he removed it.
"Poison needle! Hang on, little tiger!" He then took out the needles as he took out a pill. Putting it into her mouth as she swallowed it. He then saw the flower amber necklace knowing it was her. "You'll be okay. I'll stay here with you." He rubbed her head with his hand hearing her panting heavily. Liu Gang saw the necklace seeing how she had grown big. He was worried about her wiping the blood off her mouth.
Xue Liang woke up when Liu Gang was awake and saw her. They were in the forest as Xue Liang got up and stumbled.
"Little tiger?" Xue Liang saw him, she started walking as she wanted water. Smelling for water she then came across the river. Liu Gang went down as he also took a sip of water using his hands. She started drinking from the river water as she then laid down after under the sun. Liu Gang came up as he slowly sat down beside her. "I never expected to see you save me again." Xue Liang crawled to him, licking the side of his cheek. He rubbed her head as he felt good that she was safe and healthy. "I want to play with you for a bit so keep up with me." Xue Liang was confused as she then stopped and saw Liu Gang shifted into a Lion. His mane was bright as gold and his purple eyes glowed beautifully.
"I didn't know I could turn into a big cat but I enjoy this form more than anything else. Turning into this at age fifteen was a struggle during the Ming border." He spoke as she understood but she didn't speak a word. Xue Liang then started running up first as she stopped and looked down at him if he was going to follow. "You want me to follow you?"
Liu Gang then ran after her as she ran off first. Running to the cliff as she stopped and roared lowly for him to stop. Liu Gang stopped as she crouched as he did the same.

8 159Bleached Nightmare
500 years into the future, technological progress has stagnated. Wracked by a series of problems like climate change, lack of resources and the innate human lust for war, the geopolitical landscape of planet Earth is radically different, and quality of life is far from what it was in the past. While technical development and research into realistically feasible space travel has made leaps and bounds, this has come at the cost of a world that is reeling from centuries of technical stagnation in other aspects of life. The establishment of a mining colony on Mars has led to the discovery of a new, rare material called sarinium; though it is extremely tensile and durable, it has a very low melting point. The discovery of this metal leads to large mechanical infantry- dubbed 'Spirit Striders', they are six to ten meters tall and as famed for the pride they provide a nation as they are a lethally mobile heavy weapons platform. The story follows the character of Marilin, who must both figure the enigma that is her past, and what this means for her allegiances in the future. Despite her genetically physical frailty, she seeks to gain power through a vessel that will channel her wish to change the world- the Spirit Strider. --- I hope you all enjoy my work. This is a story that I began writing over four years ago in my beginning years of high school, and have cast aside unfinished in the past two years. Though it is not up to my current standards, I hope you all may find some enjoyment in it. Happy reading.

Tell me is it Good Luck or Bad Luck to be sent to a RPG styled fantasy world where the one thing that matters the most is luck. Is it Lucky to be suddenly killed so you could be brought over by the God of Gacha? Or is it bad luck to find out you're unreasonably being thrown out there into the world without a choice? Well I suppose that too depends on your luck. Join our Heroes, Villains, and whatever else these Otherworlders want to be as they test their luck out there in the world where if you wanna live you Gotta Gacha.(Warning: I put a mature tag in there for a reason you have been warned)(Disclaimer: The updates are quite random)
