Description

Song Hei’s first mission as an official member of her family brings her to an investigation of a fleeting thief, one that many before her have failed to catch. It also brings her to Byun Baekhyun—the prodigy of the Byun family, who has been assigned the same mission as her.

 

He’s arrogant and loud, irritatingly full of himself. There’s nothing they seem to agree on, and his idea of work is flirting every couple seconds. But as stakes rise and Hei and Baekhyun’s success determine their life and death, they both must find a way to work together. 

Foreword

I have been uninspired lately. Therefore, take this Cutlass spinoff/AU. This story works as a standalone with no prior knowledge of Cutlass; it is basically an AU of.... an AU? lmao send help Old readers might be here for the characters, but there will be new development and a new plot.

 

Here are some notes that aren't extremely important but crucial if you're a Cutlass reader and slightly confused:

 

>Baekhyun never escapes from his family and continues training to become a member of his family

>Hei was trained at a young age and considered the "prodigy" of the Song family

 

Please don't call me authornim; I really, really dislike it. And do not demand updates; if you ask nicely, chances are I'll let you know.

If you're interested, here is the original series: Cutlass

Chapter 5: how has it been almost 2 yrs since i last commented on this BRUH
how did i miss last yr's update BRUUUUHH
im the worst OTL
BUT WE BACK AND TIME TO CATCH UP ON LIFE NOW THAT I'M (sorta) DONE WITH CLASSES AGAIN YAHOOOO

But oh, how I have missed Breadboy and our lovely miss Hei and their antics and their banter and just everything about them, hehe. :') We should just set a legion of old ladies upon Breadboy whenever he needs his ego to get knocked down a couple of pegs, HAHA. And YAAASSS, again, I love how strong and sassy Hei is from the get-go here, and how she holds her own against Breadboy, refusing to give him an inch since she knows he'll take a mile if he can. :P

And oof, I know what Hei feels going into stuff blind. OTL Sometimes, you just end up learning things on the job and saying YES, even though you have no idea what you've just gotten yourself into. ^^; Gotta fake it 'til you make it, LOOOOOL. :') BUT I KNOW HEI WON'T FAIL. SHE IS CAPABLE AND STRONG, and if my lost self can manage to wallow my way through life, then Hei can do ANYTHING she comes across and sets her mind to, hehe. x]

also a nap sounds great LOOOOOL (even tho i did take a nap earlier today LMAO :') can never have enough naps HAHAHAHA)
also im DED at hei's internal freak-out over trying to decide if meeting in her room or breadboy's room is better. or worse, as she so aptly puts it HAHAHAHHA XD

But ooooh, the main plot is slowly coming back to me and I am LOVING all of this world-building, and I am SO intrigued by who the thief could be, and what their power and end goal are!! And it makes me wonder if Breadboy and Hei will eventually defect from their families later on, since this thief probably has strong reasons for leaving as well. :O In Cutlass, the families were the BIG BAD. But here, they're seemingly on the "good" side, so it'll be interesting to see if that changes and how it does!! And poor Hei is definitely feeling blindsided. OTL And when you're the "prodigy" of the family, it probably doesn't feel good at all to not be trusted with such valuable information. >___<

AND POP OFF, QUEEN~ Even though we're all Breadboy simps here, he really shouldn't be trusted so easily, LOOOOL. :') Still too many unanswered questions and unaccounted variables surroundings him, and it's definitely much smarter of Hei to somewhat keep her distance until something happens that solidifies a bond of trust between them. :')

Chapter 5: Ok so after two years or so of rereading Cutlass and XMTS over and over again, i finally decided to hop in on this alternate universe and so far am not disappointed. Seeing how equally mischievous Baekhyun is and how Hei is that strong independent woman we wanted her to be, my imagination is going bonkers with how the story is gonna go. You can say I’m extremely excited to read this until it’s done, then reread Cutlass and XMTS, and reread this again. I guess you can also tell that there’s not much stories lately that gives me the same amount of satisfaction as yours does 😩💗

thank you for updating even though I’m late haha

Chapter 5: omg I’m already obsessed with this and cant wait to read more! I already have a pretty strong idea who the thief is (hi jinqiong) and it seems hei has already run into her unknowingly! so so excited for this and it feels so new and refreshing to read these same characters but with different lives and personalities and goals!! love it

Chapter 5: I missed this story.
It is interesting that the thief is someone from a family.
I wonder why did they send Hei without much information?

I am looking forward to the next chapter!
Take care!
Hugs ^^,

Chapter 5: Welcome back! I have missed this unusual yet sort of familiar BaekHei. I really love their changed dynamics (I keep comparing this BaekHei with Cutlass BaekHei, idk if it's normal, but I'm doing it anyway and I am enjoying doing it ngl).

As for this chapter, it was both in a way lighthearted and intense. Intense as in, it felt like theories are bubbling up like boiling water. And soon we'll see something intense here! I in guessing theories, so I'd ratger shut myself now x'D
Can't wait for their further adventures together. But I'll be waiting patiently :D

Thank you for taking out time and updating this story. Really needed some BaekHei moments in my life rn! <3
