What Should I Do? My Brother Loves Me Too Much

Lin Xia has a wooden puppet for an older brother. Every day, she has to eat with it, coax it to sleep, talk to it, and take it to school.

Grandma says that only then will "Brother" protect her and help her regain her sight.

At first, Lin Xia thinks her grandmother is delusional.

Until her sight returns, the neighbor who mocked her and said she'd gone crazy like her shaman grandmother loses her voice, the classmates who bullied her cry and apologize, and the thugs who picked on her end up bruised and battered.

Late at night, she hugs the puppet tight and murmurs, "Brother, is that you?"

In the darkness, a tall, twisted shadow drifts out of the puppet and wraps around her small frame. In a hoarse, wicked voice, it whispers soundlessly in her ear:

"You're mine, little sister. No one else gets to bully you..."

"So adorable. I want to keep you in the darkness forever..."

"You smell so sweet. I bet you'd taste delicious..."

When Grandma goes missing, Lin Xia cries until she's nearly fainting. A handsome shadow wraps around her and comforts her: "Don't be afraid. Brother will come find you soon."

Then the aloof school heartthrob suddenly becomes her desk mate, smiling warmly as he shakes her hand. "If there's anything you need your big brother to help with, just ask."

Fear fills her heart, because she saw the heartthrob jump off a bridge and die.

What she never expected was that

this was only the beginning of the chaos, and she could no longer be an "innocent" little sister...

Notes:

1. This story is entirely fictional. Believe in science.

2. A touch of cosmic horror and an indescribable love.

My next novel will start after the New Year. Feel free to add it to your collection if you're interested:

Title: My Ex Is Pregnant with My Baby [Nonhuman]

* 1v1, both leads are sexually inexperienced. Nonhuman male lead, fake pregnant husband and real obsessive stalker, an ex chases his lover back from beyond the grave (but the only thing burning is paper money).

* A charming, attention-seeking, incredibly strong nonhuman male lead who pretends to run away while pregnant, paired with a sweet, soft-hearted, beautiful female lead.

Blurb:

[Female Lead: There's Something Off About My Problem Child]

Ruan Huazhen feels like the world has gone mad.

Lu Heng, her piece-of-trash ex who forced her to break up with him through cold-shoulder treatment two months ago, suddenly appears at her door, pale and weak. Clutching his flat stomach, he gazes at her mournfully. "Huazhen, I... I'm carrying your child."

Ruan Huazhen nearly laughs herself sick. "Lu Heng, breaking up is fine, but you can't go around having delusions. We barely even held hands. Even if something had happened, I'd be the one carrying the baby. What kind of 'man giving birth' act are you putting on?"

But then he pulls out a stack of pregnancy test reports and an ultrasound image... clearly showing a living baby in his uterus (?)

Ruan Huazhen suddenly remembers that before they broke up, she inexplicably passed out for a whole day. After she woke up, Lu Heng became unusually cold toward her... Could something have happened that day?!

Under the humanitarian pressure of being the "baby's mother" (and, mostly, because she fears he'll kill himself), Ruan Huazhen takes in this delicate, helpless "pregnant husband."

From then on, her life is turned upside down: she fetches a basin when her ex gets morning sickness, waits in line when he goes to the doctor, and has to comfort him whenever he's feeling down!

The whole internet is trying to figure out which woman got pregnant before marriage by the young master of the top-tier Lu family, unaware that the "mother" of the baby is staying up late drawing and grumbling as she makes chicken soup for the child's "father."

Until one day, she discovers by chance

Lu Heng practicing his "devoted lover" lines in front of the mirror;

his "prenatal anxiety tears" turning into pearls when they hit the ground;

and the mysterious people following him looking distinctly inhuman...

Ruan Huazhen grips her spatula and falls deep in thought:

So what kind of... creature is this ex of mine, who's carrying my (?) baby?!

And what exactly am I, if I can make "him" pregnant?!

Then a post from someone seeking advice, and definitely not a lovesick fool, appears on the forum:

"My ex showed up carrying a baby and expects me to take responsibility"

"The baby's father seems nonhuman and wants to trick me into marriage. What do I do?"

"I don't know if the pregnancy is real, but the scheme is real. Still, he looks so good when he cries!"

"Um... ahem... are pregnant husbands always this needy? Ahem... He wants kisses and cuddles the moment I touch him?!"

[Male Lead: The Act Became Real]

Zos is a general of X Star, trapped on Earth by a power struggle.

Humans call him an evil god and have given him many names. He used to like "Wuzhiqi" best. Now he likes "Lu Heng" best.

Because Ruan Huazhen, who can help him leave Earth, likes this "Lu Heng," he starts faking a pregnancy belly and medical reports, and playing the part of a fragile pregnant husband.

But she smells so sweet, not in the usual sense, but with the sweet, bloodline-laced scent that wafts from deep within her soul, making his core tremble.

When she bends her head to draw, the loose hair at the nape of her neck looks so soft, he wants to bite.

When she complains that he's "so dramatic," her lips move, so enticing that he wants to kiss her.

The curve of her calves beneath her nightgown makes him want to wrap his tentacles around them.

When she's happy, her lips tilt up slightly, and he wants to scrape and nibble at them with his fangs.

Every night, he has to chill himself with ice to stop himself from bursting into her room, pulling her into his arms, and tasting every inch of her.

But she actually wants to run away.

That day, he hears her on the phone, her voice low: "...Find a way to get rid of him."

At that moment, his heart tightens painfully.

In a dark alley, he tears apart three evil creatures that came after him, blood soaking his fingertips.

But as he turns, he hears her voice: "Lu Heng?"

He immediately retracts his claws, wipes away the blood, and stumbles into her arms.

"Huazhen..." He raises his pale face, feigning fear. "A stray cat tried to hurt me and the baby... I'm so scared..."

She stiffly lets him lean against her.

He takes the chance to bury his face in the crook of her neck, greedily breathing in her scent, his lips brushing her collarbone ever so lightly.

"Will you kiss me?" he murmurs, trembling, his fingers gently tugging at the hem of her clothes. "I protected the baby... Don't I deserve a little reward, hmm?"

Her fingertips tremble, but in the end, she doesn't push him away.

In the darkness, he smiles silently.

Yes, just like that.

Let yourself soften. Indulge me.

Once you're used to having me around, once you willingly give me everything

including yourself.
