Domain Control

[The Unlicensed Guide and Her Three and a Half Sentinels] Complete. Please add my next novel, The Mohorovicic Discontinuity [Marriage Before Love], to your favorites! In an interstellar age of genetic monopolies, Ye Xi was born with the genes of a Guide, but she could not even get a Guide license. Not only was she unlicensed, she could not cleanse a Sentinel’s mental domain, and she came from Gaia. Guides from Gaia have always had a reputation, though certainly not a good one. Even being seen talking to her could spark a huge scandal, yet some Sentinels refused to believe the rumors. They opened their mental domains to her without condition, letting her set up an unlicensed stall and practice medicine illegally. Still, sometimes they were astonished by the gaps in this back-alley Guide’s knowledge. Ji Xun: “You’re such an experienced Guide, yet you don’t know how Sentinels train. Do you rarely talk to Sentinels about that?” “Sentinels from proper bases like yours usually don’t pay much attention to Guides like me. So when I run into one, I usually just…” Ye Xi pursed her lips. “…stick my mental tentacles straight in and take a look around their mental domain. I don’t really chat.” Ji Xun: “…” 【The mental domains of powerful Sentinels are endless mirror mazes bristling with sharp shards: dangerous, chaotic, and unfathomably deep. The slightest misstep can leave someone trapped inside, unable to escape. And among those layers of disorienting reflections, it is not only the Sentinel who appears, but the Guide as well. Guides are not comforters. Every act of guidance is a genuine fight to the death of the mind. Dr. Gelanya, The Authority of the Mind】 Updated daily before noon. 70% advance release protection. A few things to know (please take a look): 1. Entirely fictional futuristic cyberpunk world, with no connection to reality. 2. BG romance, female Guide and male Sentinel.

It was not yet light when Song Changli got up, walked around the foot of the bed to get his clothes, and accidentally bumped into Chi Nian’s foot. He immediately apologized. “I’m sorry.” Chi Nian drew up her leg. “It’s all right.” He picked up Chi Nian’s clothes and set them beside her. Chi Nian: “Thanks.” Song Changli: “It was no trouble.” He put on his shirt and carefully buttoned it, then fastened his cuff links. “I’m leaving on a business trip this afternoon and won’t be back until Saturday. Could I ask you to report the broken streetlight by the entrance to the property management office?” Chi Nian: “Sure.” Song Changli: “Sorry to trouble you.” Chi Nian: “Don’t mention it.” Song Changli walked to the door. With his hand on the doorknob, he paused for a moment, then let go and came back. He knelt on one leg on the bed and leaned over Chi Nian. His breathing was unsteady, but his tone remained polite. “I won’t be back until Saturday, so could we skip one this week? Can I make it up in advance now?” Title and names are tentative. One-on-one romance, happy ending. Theme: No one is an island.
