《Dark Wolf》Book Two: Chapter 11
Advertisement
Inside the locker, John placed some underwear on and pulled up black and blue camouflage pants over his legs before strapping them on with a metal equipment belt. Lena got dressed too, although her white cheeks were still flushing in redness. Was she still thinking about what she did to John in the shower?
There was no code of conduct on SPD squads making out whenever they wanted to, but they must complete their missions foremost. Slaying monsters and saving lives was more important than thinking about dirty thoughts for each other. Whatever the pheromones did to Lena, they sure as hell made her professional on giving John a satisfying pleasure. Not that he hated it, but he wasn't sure if Lena was acting like herself. The werewolf pheromones might have changed women, make them obedient to the alpha wolf so he could easily change them into his breeding pack. But John would never become like that. He wasn't a slave master; he was a hunter who killed evil for the good of mankind. If he ever turned evil, he whether be dead so he wouldn't hurt anyone he cared. He never asked to become a cyborg werewolf. It just happened because his lust clouded his judgment. This time he won't let that happen again. "Ready?"
Lena nodded and followed him out. Her face cooled off.
The moment he stepped into the hallway, Copper hovered toward John. “Are you done f-”
John pulled Copper close to his face and glared into the robot’s red-eye. “Just tell us where we go next before I break you apart.”
Copper shook out of John’s grasp and hovered back. “We should head to the control center.”
“Why?” Lena asked.
"Is your brain dead too? We can see what the hell is happening on the planet! It will give you access to everything!"

John thought about it. Without a map, John and Lena couldn't navigate through the complex to find Alexis and Kara. And getting lost in a place full of demons was suicide. "How do we get there?"
Copper pointed his finger down the hallway. "Use the elevator. Take it up to the top level."
"The freaks better not show up again in there." John rushed back toward the elevator and pushed the button.
The doors opened. Blood and gore still laid around the interior. John felt lucky he wasn't hungry yet.
After Lena and Copper entered after him, John pushed the level fifty button. The doors closed, and the elevator vibrated up.
Lena sighed. "I wish this thing has elevator music."
"I hate elevator music," said John, facing the doors.
"Not all elevator music is awful. We got pleasant ones back at the station."
John chuckled. "Piano I think, but it's boring. Same music over and over again."
"It isn't bad for me."
"Sometimes it gets stuck in my head. To get rid of it, I play heavy metal."
Lena blinked her eyes. "I didn't know you like metal."
"Electronic metal. Gets me pumped for battle. You like piano music?"
Lena shrugged. "I think so."
John turned to her. "But you said you liked the piano elevator music."
"I only said it's good. That doesn't mean I like it."
"Then what music do you like?"
Lena stared at the ceiling and placed her finger on her lip. "Classical."
"That ancient boring music?"
Lena glared at him. "Don't insult it! Classical is relaxing. I don't mind other music, but classical brings me peace after a stressful mission. It helps me fall asleep too."
"Lullabies don't work?"

Lena's puffed her cheeks. "I'm not a baby!"
John laughed until the elevator doors open. When he turned around, his mouth dropped. "Oh, shit."
Through a corridor, many possessed inmates strolled around like zombies. They were hissing, scratching the walls, and eating limbs from their victims on the floor. So many, John couldn't see what was on the other side of the hallway. "Copper, is that the correct path to the control center?"
"I'm afraid bloody so," Copper answered.
John held up his arms and changed them into his Gatling guns. "This will be a major cluster fuck battle."

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning." A powerful magic that would bring forth a being from another world with the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true. Working and going to school full time, sacrificing his health and social life in his youth, Lucas obtained Doctorates in genetics and virology, as well as associate degrees in business and accounting. The modern world is not easy, and despite it nearly driving him mad from stress, this was the bare minimum he needed to be approved for a business loan to start a company focusing on commercial genetic therapy. Despite the challange of getting his business running, Lucas feels that his work has finally paid off. Lucas's car never left the banks lot, nor was Lucas ever seen again in our world.
8 95The Skies of Aurora (To be rewritten in the future)
The Skies of Aurora A world full of thousands of islands spread throughout an endless sky with no ground to be seen beneath them. Here we find Shawn Blake, who lives a quiet life near a dungeon on the Isle of Fallen Snow. Very few people ever visit the Isle of Fallen Snow because there is only one dungeon that has a connection to the island in all of the endless Skies of Aurora. Thanks to that, Shawn has been able to live peacefully on the island with nothing but his training to worry about, despite being a hybrid of more than one of the five ruling races. However, unfortunately for Shawn, his peaceful life is about to come to an end as some visitors make their way to the Isle of Fallen Snow for reasons unknown. The world of Aurora is a world of endless skies full of floating islands separated by open air with the void far below them, and the only way to get from one island to another is through portals that are located at the end of each dungeon. These portals are connected to the central portal on another island. This book is a litrpg, fantasy, and sky world all in one. I hope you enjoy my book, and I welcome any and all suggestions.

Howard Manfield, like most pawns, fashions himself a king of his realm. Presiding over the corporatized dominion of genetic engineering, Howard was yet haunted by memories unknown to him. Awaking in a cold sweat to the dank smell of his own breath, his mind turning to the darkness from which it had emerged. In truth that was what he remembered most, it was more the substance of absence more than any meaningful presence on a color spectrum. It would not be until the first and last of his fated 'finding quests' that Howard Manfield would learn his place among his memories.
