Secret Marriage:The Wolf And The Sheep Chapter 147
Advertisement
Chairwoman Lu leaned back in the chair in her home office as she received the news of yet another failure. She rubbed her fingers over her forehead cursing the turn of events that had made her helpless like this. She had taken so many preemptive measures to make sure that Xie Eun fell into her trap but nothing seemed to work. She even had to resort to dealing with dirty goons since the Yoo's failed to kill her. And she did not like the attitude of the young brat. She had saved his life so that they would be indebted to her not so that he could sneer at her. She would have to talk to Elder Yoo and she would have to talk to her brother...She had kept the favors, these two owed her very carefully and she did not want to use both the chances on a small ant like Xie Eun. She did not understand how that General Xie had snagged such a powerful man like Wolf.
Yu Seok...Ever since she read the name,she was even more worried. She felt it was a terrible coincidence that the person named Wolf was called Yu Seok and carried the same name as the dead child of the Yoo family. If she had not made sure that her father died when saving Yoo Seok,she would have worried that this person was the same as lost child of the Yoo's..But Yu .Seok seemed to be a brat from the village and he had risen here with the help of the General..And the man was trained really well in avoiding traps and foiling attacks.
Lady Lu walked to the small bar on the side and poured herself a glass of whiskey. She had come this far,played so many games and tricks,not so that she could lose in the end. She had even planned the murder of her own father to gain her brother's favor.She did not understand why the little brat Xie Eun could not die! She had killed the girl's mother successfully and even her husband had not suspected anything until the last moment. Even her father had believed that she was on his side.And even that Xie Eun had been so trusting of her.. But General Xie had put this hurdle in her path to success! She's had enough of these little games of hide and seek. The girl would have to die!And so would that person named Yu Seok. She hated the name anyway..

Sipping the whiskey in her hand,she swirled it a bit,the light reflecting off it,making her aura seem mysterious and even more dangerous..Picking up her phone,she decided to use this last chance before she would choose to contact her brother..
But before she could make the call,her phone rang with a private number. She frowned att his sudden call,because this man usually contacted her only once a year to ask her updates about the Yoo's and she had already told him everything she knew.
She answered the phone and the other person barked into the phone,"What is going on with the Yoo's?They have started investigating the past? Someone is trying dig out files?Why?"
This caused the lady to frown as she heard this. The person on the phone was her brother's right hand man and the person she used to spy on her brother. If he was calling her to ask this then that meant her brother was involved now.
Before she could answer,a cold voice came onto the phone,"Little sister.Many years ago,we had a deal.I have kept my end of the bargain for so long but why do I feel that your end is left a little messy? That time I listened to you and let that Yoo Shiro go,because you wanted leverage with the Yoo's. I would have preferred that both the brats burn in hell but you advised agains it and let one go..and now that one is interfering in our business. And you have also challenged the CEO of Alpha Companies? Are you crazy? Do you know his people are also trying to dig your information and almost finished off my men in the process? Do you know who Wolf is? I may be one of the most powerful men in the underworld but there is something greater than me. And that is money?Do you think that everyone is scared of CEO Wolf just because he cleaned a few people?No you fool!Killing and murder is common! He is scary because he controls all the money in this part of the country! And you are out to challenge him!Let me warn you if something bad occurs because of you,I will renege on my promise!"

Having heard her brother ranting at her,Lady Lu also lost her patience and snapped,"How dare you threaten me?Have you forgotten how you reached the position you are in now?And money? I am the one who controls all your money! I have helped make all the fraud companies so that you can launder your money!And why do you think I am doing this? Once the company is in Xie Eun's hands and if she looks deeply enough she will find the discrepancies and then I will be the one going down!"
She thought that she had won the argument when her brother's voice sounded," You may have helped initially,but do not think that I am not aware that you had your own selfish reasons. And you have received your share of dirty money over the years so do not pretend that you have done anyone a favor. But let me tell you,if my interests are harmed because of you, I will make sure that you are buried six feet under the ground before you can say sorry!"
Snap!And the phone was disconnected...

A Well Dressed Wolf
I don't know what to tell you; I never met a god, I never saved kids from speeding trucks, there was no email, no freak lighting storm, no dying in my sleep, no blinding white light at the end of the tunnel. I just blinked and found myself in a very different world and inside a very different body. I might have been put here to be a hero, a paragon of hope, a light for weary souls. To join other superbeings and ultra geniuses in their hypocritical crusade against the darkness…One small problem, I'm not going to be doing any of that.

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.

Changement : Version Pile [French]
Notice: This story is in French, not in english, mainly because of my poor english. I may translate it later if I get better, and hopefully I will. _ Les cris de souffrance résonnent dans ses oreilles, dans sa tête et dans son coeur. Cette dernière image, ces derniers instants, ces morts incompréhensible, rien ne sera plus jamais pareil pour Nils Nocquat. Il sombre, et dans les ténèbres, découvre la fache cachée de son monde. Qui est coupable? Démon, Ange et autres Sonen, tous se renvoient la faute, et maintenant, Nils Change, il doit faire un choix. Indécis, il lance une pièce. Pile. Il a choisi son camp. Il deviendra un Démon, le meilleur ou le pire de tous, ce n'est qu'une question de point de vue. - Author's note: this story is a concept. During the first chapter, the main character is faced with a major decision, which will change his life forever, and, not knowing what to do, he decide to play heads or tails, and let fate choose for him. And so there will be two versions of this story, one for each of the result, and their consequences for the main character, as well as all those around him. Here, he got tails. Note de l'auteur: Comme dit plus haut, cette histoire sera en français, car je ne suis pas assez bon en anglais. De plus, cette histoire est un concept un peu particulier, le personnage principal va se retrouver face à un choix décisif qui va changer sa vie pour toujours, et, ne savant pas que faire, il va jouer à pile-ou-face, en laissant le destin décider pour lui. Il y a donc deux versions de cette histoire, une pour chacun des résultats de son lancer. Lien de l'autre version : https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/28318/changement-version-face-french Je vous encourage à ne pas lire les deux versions, ou en tout cas, à ne pas les lire en même temps. Elle sont assez peu similaires, mais des choses vont, logiquement, être répétées, et les confusions risquent d'être rapides, surtout au début des histoires. Dans tout les cas, ces deux histoires vont s'éloigner assez rapidement, tout en restant intrinsèquement liées par leurs personnage principal. Libre à vous de choisir la version qui vous plaît le plus, sachant que vous n'aurez pas besoin de lire les deux pour comprendre toutes les intrigues, elles sont absolument indépendantes l'une de l'autre. Le seul chapitre identique dans les deux versions est le prologue. C'est la deuxième fois maintenant que je publie quelque chose que j'ai écrit, mais ça ne me rends pas meilleur en terme d'orthographe et de grammaire, donc si vous relevez une erreur, où même si vous remarquez des incohérences, n'hésitez surtout pas à me le faire remarquer. Toute critique, qu'elle soit positive ou négative, est appréciée. En terme de rythme de publication, je pense sortir un chapitre par semaine dans chacune des deux histoires.
