A piece of us (Xiao x fem!reader) by iamscaredoftheocean

*under editing* 53 % finished. Being special, Y/n had been taken in by the Geo Archon. She met the adepti, including one guy whom she got closest to. Y/n was able to completely eradicate Xiao's pain as long as she simply stood nearby him, due to this, she became his companion. But soon enough... companionship was not enough for them... - "You make me feel at peace", said the young adeptus as he laid his head in her lap. - (This book is a reader insert so we will be following the story line.) WARNING/DISCLAIMER: - Spoilers (for new players atleast) - Cursing/swearing - Mentions of mature themes - Genshin Impact is owned by Hoyoverse. - I do not own Y/n, you do.

Can You Be Cured? - Xiao x Aether Genshin Impact by dnaddr

Drawn to Xiao and not knowing why.. Everyone has left him, leaving him to have no care whatsoever. His pain is forever and he will always endure it. But, will Aether be Xiao's saving grace, or will he cause him more pain..? Coldest attitude ever, Xiao. A handsome man that was originally set out on a journey to kill. He encounters Aether on a sunset day, red and orange covering the sky. "Who are you?" Xiao asks. "I'm Aether, nice to meet you!" Can Xiao love again after his heart was shattered by another?

❝ 𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚘𝚗𝚐𝚎𝚜𝚝 𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚝𝚜 𝚊𝚛𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚜𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝚏𝚛𝚘𝚖 𝚋𝚕𝚘𝚘𝚍.❞ Thousands of years ago, Rex Lapis made a contract with the Tsaritsa: Snezhnaya would ally with Liyue for the duration of the Archon War in exchange for him giving up his first born child to work for her, should he have one. Never expecting to have a child, he agreed, but he would come to regret that decision for the rest of his life. Now, you return to Liyue for a mission after being summoned by the very man who ruined your life before you were even born. Painful memories resurface as you're forced to face the past you tried so hard to ignore, as well as the Adepti you never wanted to meet, and the god you hoped to never see again.

Xiao, the Guardian Yaksha that serves for Rex Lapis was conquering demons on the West mountain. That seems to connect to the heavens and stars. And there lives a goddess of mighty power.
