A Sentinel-and-Guide Story of Reconciliation After a Breakup

[Upcoming novels: The Sickly Beauty Fiancé of the Dragon-Slaying Protagonist Loses His Memory and His Lower Back Is Engraved with My Name [Esports]. Their synopses are at the bottom.]

In his previous life, Huo Xianyue only realized there was something wrong with his live-in boyfriend's identity after the man disappeared.

A senior researcher at the Academy of Sciences, he acted at once and used a few little tricks to uncover his boyfriend's identity:

An S-rank Sentinel with blood on his hands, belonging to the dark side of the Federation military.

Huo Xianyue infiltrated the Mutant Management Tower to confront him face-to-face, only to receive a cold reply: "We're not the same kind of people."

He went home in a fury and threw himself into research. Then he accidentally uncovered an alien ruin and, before he could react, it was game over.

As he lay dying, he seemed to see his heartless ex-boyfriend kneeling in the snow before him, nearly broken, amid the freezing wind and the stench of blood.

*

Unexpectedly, after dying, Huo Xianyue was reborn as a special Guide.

To investigate the fossilized ruins hidden in the Tower, he pretended to reluctantly accept the Mutant Management Tower's invitation, on the condition that he wouldn't be paired with any Sentinel as a permanent partner.

Thanks to his unusual mental powers, he could slack off every day and spend the rest of his time doing research as he pleased. Life was wonderful.

Until one day, he accidentally ran into his ex-boyfriend. He hadn't meant to snoop, but he caught a glimpse of the other man's open mindscape, where every memory of his previous life involving Huo Xianyue was stored, clear as day.

There were memories of secretly sneaking into his room after the breakup to sleep on the floor, and of self-harm and an even deeper spiral after Huo Xianyue died.

Huo Xianyue turned and ran, only to be enveloped by a familiar scent and drawn into an almost weightless embrace.

His scalp prickled. "Not interested. Back off."

The Dark Sentinel smiled, a sick obsession in his eyes that he couldn't control. "Then let me make it up to you... You can use my body however you want, control me, destroy me."

As long as his moon remained high in the night sky and never fell, he was willing to pay any price.

After a celebratory banquet, everyone had a little to drink. They teased the rookie assault player sitting behind their captain, asking:

Now that you've won the championship, what would you wish for from your idol?

At the center of everyone's attention, Captain Yun, a ruthless killer in the game,

was still lazily wearing his team jacket, but his face suddenly turned a quiet shade of red.

In a hotel room shared by two people at the finals, with night falling,

Yun Qing felt the rookie assault player, who had been so well-behaved and humble, grip him around the waist. An electric sensation flashed across the smooth, clean small of his back.

The little wolf with his fangs out suddenly chuckled softly, pressing his forehead against the person he'd longed for:

"I'm so happy. From now on, a little part of the captain's body will bear a mark that belongs only to me."
