《Sasha》33. ~Trapped~
Advertisement
Yatsu opened his eyes and shuddered. He tried to move and was happy to find himself capable. Only, his right side was numb, and he found himself staring at pink hair, trapped in two small white ribbons. Trying to control his breathing he lay back. The dream already becoming one big blur so he focused on something else; like searching for a way out of a sleeping girl's grasp. He examined all of his options and gave up. Moving out from under her was impossible. He’d either have to wake her himself or wait till she wakes on her own. Wait, where is here anyway? He lifted his head a bit, and from the few objects in view, Yatsu concluded he’d been here before. The infirmary? He lay his head back down and nearly cursed when Sasha stirred from where she lay, only, instead of waking up, she snuggled closer to him. The scent of flowers. Brandon coming at him in a fit of rage. Three knives stabbing his chest. Yatsu started to sweat. Calm down, moron! Deep breath. He breathed in. Breathed out. Someone walked in the room. The last time Yatsu called out to someone, three knives fell toward him. Ya, but this is the real world, and it’s probably just the the school nurse… but what if it isn't? Oh just stop talking to yourself Yatsu! "Hello?" He tried to be quiet, but is there such a thing when someone is sleeping right on top of you? "Yatsu?" The nurse was male. Yatsu recognized his voice having once met him before, but couldn’t recall his name. "How are you feeling?" How am I feeling? Why? "Okay for the moment?" He responded unsure. First, the nurse’s head of dark hair became visible, tied up into a small ponytail. Next his cleanly shaved face and dark eyes came into view. "From the young lady's report it says here that you took the full force of a punch to your temple, and another to the top of your head." "Right," Yatsu reached up and touched his face with his free arm, and winced. "Ow," he brought his hand back down, it apparently only hurt when he touched it. "So do I look funny?" "You have a black eye and you might have a headache for a day or two, other than that, if you don't feel anything else, you’re free to go... but you are also free to stay if you don't want to disturb the miss..." he trailed off. "Did anyone else get hurt?" Yatsu asked, thinking Brandon hadn’t stopped with him. "No," he said, sounding like he wanted to end the conversation, now that he knew Yatsu was okay. His job done. Yatsu muttered a thank you and the nurse left the room. Watching the sleeping girl on top of him for a while made him tired, and he covered his mouth for a yawn. He placed his hands back down, his right hand accidentally brushed against Sasha's backside. He cringed and silently cursed. She reacted and stirred some more, only this time he was pretty sure she was awake. Yatsu hesitantly looked back down at her, only to find two ice cold eyes staring back at him. Ummmm... "Hi?"

Hiraeth: Promise of the World
On a rainy night, a young woman is transported to the enchanting world of Sol'h'meyr. Thrilled to be freed from the shackles of monetary survival and societal expectations on Earth, she embraces her newfound existence and magical powers bestowed. But the rose-tinted fantasy life she always dreamed of turns out to be a stark reality that poses to kill her if she doesn't adapt and let go of her past. Essairyn battles both cripping nostalgia and imminent danger in her journey from the Spirit and Demon Forest to the human realm of As'pyze. Disillusionment leading to anger has erupted into violence across the deceptively peaceful land. New friends and allies gather by her side, but tragedy and betrayal lurk closer than she realizes. Hiraeth is the idyllic beginning tainted with dark shadows in the epic fantasy series, Singularity Cycle.

The original version of the first book was published on RR in 2019 and has since seen multiple revisions based on reader feedback with this one as the final and official fourth version before the second book. While the entire series story has undergone major changes in the last year, all books have been planned since the beginning of writing. It is also my second wish to eventually make this story into a webcomic, either by myself or with a team if possible. Thank you for taking this journey with me, and enjoy reading! ( You can alternatively read books in the series as standalone fictions, but they connect to one another though a running theme and mystery that evolves and progresses with the main character. ) Alternate Blurb for the Singularity Cycle series: Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.
