My Days as a Shadow Guard

As a shadow guard, Mo Jiu has taken blades, suffered wounds, and shed blood for her master. She can climb trees to keep watch, crawl along the ground to scout, disguise herself as an old woman, or pass for a young woman in a brothel.

She thought the best she could hope for was to retire after completing her mission, with her master taking pity on her and letting her live a normal life. Who could have guessed she'd eventually be expected to bear her master's child?

That was just too much to put up with.

Later, she finally got away and began living the idyllic life she'd always dreamed of: a little house in the countryside, clean water, and a few acres of land. Then one day, she noticed her belly slowly growing.

Of course, what was meant to happen would happen. She still couldn't escape that man's grasp.

I saw the starlight in your eyes, and from then on, the lights in every home felt warm.
