I Was Fucked

I honestly expected some questions when it came to my name. It was technically 'anyingzhiren', which very roughly translated to Shadow Blade.

And now that I say that out loud, I feel incredibly dumb. Almost like a teenage boy trying to find an online name for the first time. But, in my defense, I did think that it would be a good name for an arms dealer.

Pushing that bit of embarrassment out of my mind, I waited for Sha Shou to give me some additional information… like where the hell was the…being… I was supposed to be meeting in this mosh pit of bodies.

"I am sensing an elevated heart rate. Are you okay?" asked Jun Li, coming through my earpiece.

I smiled under my veil, happy that he was back to talking to me. I think there was a strong sense of jealousy when Sha Shou appeared on the scene, something that neither one of us expected.

"I am sorry," he continued out of the blue. "I didn't think that I would show possessive characteristics."
