The Last Embrace Chapter 311

Later that afternoon.
Jessy and the queen were having a conversation in the study room regarding the first guy to be sent home that week.
"We can reschedule this task next week, Jess, if you're not ready yet," the queen said.
Jessy shook her head. "No need, Mother. We will do it tomorrow, night," Jessy assured the queen that it's perfectly alright to start sending the men to their homes.
"Are you sure you're ready for it?" Queen Margaret asked again.
"I'm 100% sure, Mother," she said firmly.
"Okay, tomorrow then. Just tell me if you had a change of mind we can always do it next week," the queen offered.
"No. I won't change my mind, it's already fixed," she replied.
"Alright then, bring here the guy tomorrow after your second blood transfusion for the night," Queen Margaret instructed.
"Okay, Mother. I'm living now going back to the clinic," she stood up.
The queen nods her head.
Jessy exited the study room and sauntered towards the direction of the clinic.
...
Ten minutes later, Jessy was already lying in the clinic bed undergoing blood transfusion together with teenage girl recipient.
She fished out the index card of Leo from the pocket of her pants, he is the first guy to go home tomorrow. Based on Leo's written information, it says that he was held captive by the savage vampire for eleven months period. His address was not in the city though, it was located in Blue Eagle Town, it's on the outskirt of the town and the name of the property was The Rabbi's Manor. She was familiar with the town's name, Blue Eagle Town. She had passed this town numerous times in the past, it will be easy to find his address since the town isn't densely populated.
According to his information, he is thirty years old, single and living alone in an ancestral home he inherited from his deceased parents. He did not list any family names, loved ones or relatives.

The information Leo had written about himself was not extensive, Jessy observed. After she's done with the current blood transfusion she will go to the town and find Leo's address, then conduct some inspection on his residence that must have been abandoned after he was abducted eleven months ago.
Then by midnight, she will teleport into the treehouse in the forest to have a quick visit to Jagger and see how he was doing lately? He might still be in and out of his sleep, the entire day. After seven days, she will know if he finally transformed into a mortal being.
For now, it's a waiting game.
...
Two hours later.
Jessy was already inside her room donning the black ensemble on her body. She's going sightseeing in the Blue Eagle Town where Leo has declared his home address.
Done with everything. She's ready to go, she transformed into her invisible self and initiated the teleportation process in her mind.
A few minutes later...
She was already hovering above the town of Blue Eagle. It's not densely populated like most of the neighboring cities. Leo's home address was situated two kilometers away from the heart of the town.
After a few minutes of finding the property called The Rabbi's Manor, Jessy noticed that the property was adjacent to an abandoned old cemetery, based on several wooden crosses still standing on the tombs.
Honestly, the whole area was spooky and got a Halloween vibe around it especially that there was a full moon shining brightly up in the sky. Jessy saw some bats hanging in the branches of the trees that were growing around the cemetery.
Tall trees can be seen inside the property of The Rabbi's Manor. The Manor was protected by a big rusted iron gate in the front, and the whole area was dark. The full moon shining in the sky above illuminated the entire property with a murky glow.

Jessy rose higher above the property, wanting to see a birds-eye view of the entire area.
The property was more or less two kilometers wide with uncultivated land and more trees surrounded by a concrete fence encompassing the whole area. The Rabbi's Manor was situated in the center of the property.
On the east side is where the abandoned cemetery was located.
She finds it interesting that Leo chose to live alone in this vast property adjacent to the cemetery.
He must be a loner then...
Done inspecting the property up there in the sky, she lowered herself and her feet landed on the solid ground in front of the main door of the manor. The house was a bit massive in size and it's three-story high, this house was the biggest among the houses that she had passed by on the way to this property.
As she was staring at the main door, she can't see a single light burning inside, since no one lives in this house after Leo was kidnapped. She wants to see whats it's like inside the big house...
She went inside passing through the wooden door like a ghost. She finally found herself inside a spacious living room, there were a few rays of light coming from the moon that went through the windows in the living room. Some of the windows were half open though, hmm...why is that?
In her mind, she was already speculating that this house would be an easy target for robbers because the owner had disappeared.
She might as well explore the second floor of the house, there was a long staircase leading to the second floor, she hovered above it.
When she landed on the second floor she heard some noises originating from the first room near the top of the stairway.
Out of curiosity, she went inside the room, she was unprepared for what she saw inside the room.
Holy Guacamole!
She thought this house was abandoned, why is it that a naked couple was romping above the bed? The creaking of the bed was getting louder along with their moaning and grunting...oh...lala!
Who are they?
Hmm...probably an outsider who wants to experience a little bit of excitement having sex in an abandoned house. She read once of an online article detailing some couples fetishes performing sexual intercourse with their partner in some extreme secluded places such as cemetery and abandoned buildings, tunnels and other spooky places. It was explained in the article that engaging in sexual acts in exciting and dark places adds deeper satisfaction and exciting adventure to the couple.
Well...
Since Leo did not mention of a relative living with him in the house, she concluded that this couple belongs to the adventurous type and just a passerby. She was hoping that by tomorrow morning they will be gone from this property because the real owner is finally coming home and Leo won't like it if there are intruders in his private property.
For a moment, she was tempted to make a noise so that the couple will flee the property but it will be rude to do it while they were banging each other and planning to enter the heavens above with their one of a kind adventure.
So she allowed them to continue their steamy activity out of respect for the couple...
Jessy shrugged her shoulders and hovered back to the ground floor, then she exited the main door like a ghost passing through the thick wooden door.
Once outside the door, Jessy hovered above the house.
She surveyed the whole property one last time before teleporting back into the Facility.

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!

New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make.
