neil gaiman scary short story

Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

"Kiss me, Cole," I begged, my head sinking back into the seat. "I…" He leaned in just a little, his lips close enough for me to taste his breath, but then he stopped. "Not now, Mia," he said with that smug voice. His hand trailed lower, gliding over my belly, fingers slipping under the waistband of my trousers. He didn't even hesitate—his fingers dipped lower, brushing over the wetness soaking through my panties. "Damn," he groaned in my ear. "You're fucking soaked."

Terrible advice. Go watch the Brandon Sanderson lecture series on YouTube. Or the Neil Gaiman one. These authors are recognised as the best in the business and the advice is built on what they have learned getting there.

warm-blooded animal

Four years ago, he was a talented ice skating youth and the most anticipated best defender in the football world, God Jan. He was a genius racer who had appeared out of nowhere two years ago, and the Qin God who had excellent strength in the sports circle. That year, he was not even 18 years old. That year, he was not even 20 years old. In the past, he never smiled. In the past, when he faced reporters, he always smiled and welcomed them. He was neither servile nor overbearing on the day he gave up the ice ball, and he was silent on the day he left the track. From then on, the ice rink lost its high-spirited youth, and the track lost its leader who flew against the wind. What kind of existence was he? She was a natural beauty who was surrounded by the opposite sex. She was always so mysterious. When he met her, there were many misunderstandings. "Do I still have a chance to get to know you again?" he asked. She looked at him coldly." I accept your apology, so let's stop here." He had fallen in love with her, and he had never left her when they were in love. "I'm fine," he said lightly. She denied," No, you're not good." He was so angry that he laughed." Why can't the little girl see me getting better?" Her beautiful eyes seemed to be able to speak." Race again. I know it has always been your dream." He was so lucky that she had created many opportunities for him and given him courage that he had never had before. She always said," You're my confidence!" This was the story of youth and dreams, competition and silence, defeat and growth. No one could stand at the top forever, no one could retreat unscathed, no one was omnipotent, but one had to have a clear conscience. Humans were warm-blooded animals, but they did the most hot-blooded things!

The host is lonely again

Song Wanyan was a diligent worker, racing against time to travel between different planes, collecting gold coins and slices of her sponsor's father. She sighed at the worker's spirit, the worker's soul, and the worker's superiority! When the cold and aloof top student looked at her flirting skills with disdain, he said," The people next door are still carrying trains and running through the night." When the mountain peak had no edges, Song Wanyan looked up at the sky 360 degrees and concluded with one sentence. " Being a worker is blissful and fulfilling!!" A certain sugar daddy was speechless.
