Picture from net, I don’t claim any rights to it.

This story is a sequel to ‘Mahnu, An Immortal’s Journey’. I know it may not make much sense but this is also a side story to ‘Universal Creations’.

Sexual content isn’t until towards the end.

Not even a slight change of her expression, even when sorrow, pain or anger. Her expression doesn't change.

In her eyes that looks a void. Darkness and sorrow were reflected to her pupils. One can be scared, terrified, or even faint.

From her mysterious aura that emits a gloomy feeling and a dried sensation.

As a Duke, No. As a Father. I will not make her life even more miserable. Yet, I don't want to ruin my reputation. I'm sorry my daughter, for you to suffer... <<less

It was dark, pitch black. Where am I? Where was I last? I died. Am I still dead? A light so dim, yet so blindingly bright to me appeared in a vertical line. The line grew wider and wider, all until the stone slab above my coffin was completely removed. I removed it, I lifted it, without even willing it. And my body continued to move until it was outside of the crypt.... more>>

It was night, but there was a full moon. And a young girl in front of me. She clutched a black book to her chest as if it were the last thing she had left in this world. I've heard stories of this, I imagined the possibility, but I never thought it would happen to me.

Tears streaked down her cheeks. She choked the words out. "Please, save my papa!"

This is a fanfiction for the original work, Heavenly Soul, by Crimson Carnation - it was also written and posted with her permission. If you are not familiar with the original, you can check out the story here: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/15679/heavenly-soul-bl/

So, what is this fic about?

The story was inspired by a certain little frog that appeared in the arc dealing with Jing Shui's past and had entirely too much personality for its own good. If you are interested in what might the life of a small frog entail, you can find out what could have happened if that one time wasn't its only appearance, and if there was more to it than just being a simple green frog with a strong dislike for pompous royals who don't know how to dive into ponds properly.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Warning!: I've built this fic very heavily on the events of HS and I assume a reader has prior background knowlegde, so you'd probably enjoy this one only if you were one of the readers of the original work.

To help in placing a few things:
P1-P5 run parallel with ch. 113-125 of the main story, until they finally diverge in P5.
P7 is parallel with the extra - Family Old and New.

!!The fancfiction itself didn't change, I've only updated its status to reflect it properly!! <<less

SEQUEL ALERT!! Breaking Bond now has a sequel! It's called "Wildwood", and you can find it at the link below! <<less

A simple romantic tale of a... girl meeting a... boy. Trust and love both take time to grow, but growing together is also a lot of fun.... more>>

A handful of disclaimers and claims by the Author:

First, this is fan fiction, set in the “Amaranthine Saga” universe written by Forthright. The story and characters, on the other hand, are wholly my own (fault). I highly encourage you to be familiar with the stories from the “Amaranthine Saga” before reading this; the latter half of this story will make a whole lot more sense if you do.

Second, this is a relatively short and stand-alone story. The completed story should clock in around 10,000 words, so please do not expect a novel, let alone a series.

Third, while this is a romantic story, I’ve never been a fan of the usual romance “misunderstanding” tropes. Think of this as more of a romantic slice-of-life story than an action or traditional romance story.

Finally, thank you for reading. :) <<less

The catch? She'd lose it all if anyone found out.

To prevent exposure, Alex stayed in the side lines and avoided unnecessary interactions. Her cold demeanor drove the other students away. They eventually learned to leave her alone. After that, it didn't take long for two years to pass by as she spent her days in blissful peace.

Her secluded life had kept her safe. 

Until…

That shattered when Logan Parker caught her with extensions in her hair, make-up on her face, heels on her feet and boobs in her dress.

Not one to give up, Alex needed to fool him.

But how?

How will she keep this web of lies afloat? Will her true identity stay as a secret? Or will her borrowed time be over? 

Take a peek and discover the biggest secret in this fiction world!

"Do you want me to?" He couldn't help but smirk. Her face from their date surfaced in his memories. He found it just as amusing as back then. Revenge never tasted sweeter. Would she make the same reaction right now?

It was tempting but the venue wasn't the best place for it.

"No!" Eve protested a little too loudly. She pressed her fingers against her mouth and scanned the premise. As she predicted, hundreds of eyes watched them. A groan escaped her lips. She buried her face on the side of his chest, inhaling his cologne.

"Are you sure?" Ambryan asked, genuinely concerned now. He held her chin and raised it. His violet eyes met her hazel ones. The blush on her cheeks had magnified in saturation. He couldn't tell anymore if it came from embarrassment or the alcohol.

Either way, it intrigued him on how much redder she could possibly be.

He leaned down and whispered in her ear. "I'd be gentle this time."

==============

Eve faced the most difficult decision in her life when an opportunity landed on her desk. And that is? To join a special dating site for the most eligible bachelor of the country,

Her boss.

As a secretary, Eve knew affiliations between her and her boss were forbidden. She must stay in his shadow where she didn't pose a threat to his lovers and his admirers. She had taken measures to fit the job, even changing her style of appearance.

Ambryan Hathaway, CEO of Eros Productions, disliked false information. The only ones he allowed were the ones he initiated himself. In order to please his mother, he had participated in the game of love with a string of flings.

Unfortunately, his mother had enough. She must find a way for him to open his eyes and his heart to meeting the right girl. That one spark would be enough for her son to consider marriage.

And who would be the better candidate than his own secretary?

When the main daughter suddenly changed overnight, the others were dragged to keep up with her pace. Wei Liuying was no exception, and she had to adapt to the sudden power structure’s shift inside the residence.

When the only one who cared for her was harmed by her father and so-called family, Wei Liuying laughed to Heaven as tears trailed on her cheek.

This is no fantasy world. No superpowers exist, neither does magic. He’s an ordinary middle school student. He doesn’t have any hobbies, nor anything to look forward to as he lives his tedious and unchanging life every day.

Normally, there would be no point telling his story.

However, one day, something strange happens. He accidentally stumbles upon a strange girl. Immediately he notices her unusual appearance—one of her eyes is concealed under a black eyepatch.

Caught up in utter confusion, he barely notices when the girl asks him to become her ‘servant’, but doesn’t give him any time to respond as she runs away.

As it turns out soon, the girl appears to be completely detached from the real world. She pretends to be strong and tough, but it doesn’t take much to reveal her bashful and cowardly side.

The protagonist—Fujioka Takao—initially driven by curiosity, decides to put up with the eccentric girl, but at some point, the situation gets out of his control.

Thus begins his story, which quickly proves to be the story of his youth.
