《Another world》A stubborn wolf (2)

“Are you stupid or something?” Everyone looked about, shocked, at the source of the noise.
Loki opened a little portal with his spell. He took a mug from inside, handing it to Irma's father. He was still dying from that dreadful cough. Irma raised her eyes to Loki. He was soothing her father as he stood behind him. She was well aware that he was listening to everything they said.
One of the characteristics that distinguish Loki as a Loki is his tendency for laughing at the darkest of circumstances, especially his own. When he holds his laughing in, his face gets slightly reddish, which is a dead giveaway.
She could see right away that he was siding with her father on this issue. “Irma, living with your soon-to-be-mate isn't just about hunting or being the most powerful leader.” Loki snatched a chair and sat down, munching on grapes from the table's center. “Young ladies have been going missing for months. Some of them didn't even appear to be human.
Have you ever considered what happens to their relatives, at least once? They must carry on as if nothing has occurred. They are unable to file a missing person report or contact the authorities. They woke up one morning and saw their mother or daughter dead on the doorsteps. Having to pretend as if nothing happened.”
Loki leaned in close and repositioned his arms and chest on the table. “They had no choice but to flee the city for a while. They had to lie to their kids' teachers, employers, and friends. They didn’t feel safe since their leader couldn’t protect them and their family. Some of them even got exiled from their pact. They feel restrained that there was a killer out in the city that knew what they were. That it may come after them or, worse, send someone who's an expert at catching us.”

“That’s right, sweetie,” Elena interjected herself from Loki's lecture to her stubborn daughter. He was the only one she could think of who could make Irma see sense. “Last year was tough enough on its own. Someone posted police data on the internet. They had images of freshly or decomposing bodies of non-human women stored away for who knows how long. Everyone tried locating their relatives, but they immediately went into hiding.”
“Irma, think about the risk you're putting your family in if you reject.” Irma pleaded with her mother for assistance in escaping her father's and Loki's priority. Her mother, on the other hand, simply nodded. “My pup. The worst part is that sometimes the victim’s friends will see them dead in their real form. Regardless, you're moving out, so having someone to guard you is a good idea. Give us the gift of not having to worry about you; it's the finest alternative we have for you.”
Irma gently slugged her mother, her head drooping in defeat. She didn't have a choice in the issue. Her parents easily dissolve in his fingertips once that snugged demon speaks.
“Irma. Winston and uncle will not be in town to defend you when you need them the most. You may be the wolf pack's future leader. You're tough, but so were some of the ladies who died. It's for your safety as well as your pact. You're putting everyone in danger if you die. “This includes my side.” Consider this man. Please.”

8 122Artifice: Iysinfyr
Nalulthyn is the young daughter of a duke that is one day asked for a favor. This favor involves the adopted daughter of the duke from a neighboring area. This girl has had a traumatic past and has closed herself off from the world completely and reacts violently when touched by anyone but her personal maid. The duke hopes that a girl close to the age of his adoptive daughter will be what she needs to recover, but things are never as easy as they seem. First is that this adopted daughter is a Terran, a rare being from a different world that has skin and hair as white as snow and an almost alien build. Second is that there is a power to this girl, one that makes her recovery all the more dangerous to Nalulthyn and perhaps beyond. Author's note: This is a soft reboot of Artifice: Tools of the Gods. As I wrote the other story years ago I felt it would be better to do this approach as my writing has changed and improved since then. For now only two characters will return though I might reintroduce others later in the story. Even though this has the gore tag, I don't plan on being excessive with it. Most chapters shouldn't have any. The only reason I have it is to be realistic with the descriptions.
8 147Reverend Insanity(But it was me DIO!)
“I Dio, perhaps I failed to ascend to Heaven.Yet, even now, I still believe that I’ll be the victor who stands above all!Be on this or another world, I shall claim absolute victory, or I’ll be crushed by the chaos outside this world and vanish into nothingness.Heh, either way, I’m already bound to die, so why I don’t give it a try?” With this thought on mind, Dio ripped the space as he was on his last breath, and he was transported to a different world. Gu's, what is that?Are they like they Stands of my world?----------------------------------------- This is a fanfic of both Reverend Insanity made by Gu Zhen Ren and Jojo's Bizarre adventure made by Hirohiko Araki. This fanfic will take place around the same time Fang Yuan used Spring Autumn Cicada for the first time, but it will includea 'twist', by Dio's arrival. Anyway, even though this fanfic takes place at the start of the first chapter of Reverend Insanity and the end of the third part of Jojo's Bizarre adventure, yet you shouldn't read this unless: You completed the novel of Reverend Insanity and that you have already read the end of the 6 part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. If you have read those two stories, or if you don't mind being spoiled, then go on.
8 790Dungeon's Ascension
When the Immortal Quin and his friends are put in a life and death situation where escape seems impossible, they decide to start again from the beginning. But this time they will be born as dungeons and try to ascend again into the Divine Realm with a whole army at their backs to get revenge. The story follows Quin as he develops himself and the intimate relationship he forms with the local sect. In this story I will try to mix classical fantasy elements together with typical Xianxia tropes, but in the end I always try to have a logic and reason behind why the world functions as it does. For more infos on the future of the story read the first announcement. First time writing a story and feedback is greatly appreciated.
