《Playtime》chapter two

Demons. As attractive as they are, they aren't good news. They will tear up your life faster than you can tell them no. That's why when I became a fallen angel, I was careful of who I spent my time with. I can see a demon's true form, which made choosing who I associated with a lot easier. However, in some ways it didn't. I may be a fallen angel, but I have the curiosity of a mortal. I get intrigued by a creature and then, just like that, it ruins my existence. It's the curse of a fallen angel. Once you rebel, you're on your own. I don't really mind, although it would help if the counsel cared.
I sat in detention, fidgeting with my pencil. Boredom is still a thing for us fallen creatures, and right now I was tempted to do something really awful just to entertain myself. I had just decided to doze off when a new guy walked in. I gasped as his menacing presence filled the room, crashing into my senses. I shook my head as the guy looked at me.
His bright red eyes sent chills down my spine. I didn't want to be caught staring, but I couldn't tear my eyes away. His smile radiated light, and yet his intentions were anything but good. He was a demon. I turned away, pretending not to care. A cold breeze caressed my face as the new guy walked by. He walked to the teacher before sending me a smirk. A smirk that spelled one message...
Trouble. I looked down as a blush crept across my cheeks. I would have to be careful with this one.

I walked into my house, fully exhausted. School had been a complete disaster. I dropped my stuff on the bed before moving to open the shutters. I noticed a slip of paper caught in my window. Curiosity gripped me, causing me to open the glass and remove the paper. Opening it, I saw cursive handwriting covering the paper.

Desire. Love. I don't know what to call it. All I know is that you will be mine, So I suggest you leave the window unlocked tonight. You can hide from me, but you will be mine. Whether you like it or not.
-MY
I stared at the note. Fear mixed with curiosity hit me. "I could leave the window open and see who sent the note or I could be a rational human being and lock it." I said to myself. "Screw it." I threw the note on the ground and locked the window. Even if my curiosity was begging me to leave it unlocked, I was going to be smart and not let whoever sent it in.
Picking up my belongings, I started for the door. I didn't even make it halfway when a voice spoke inside my head. "Did you like my note princess?" I shook my head, staggering back slightly. Rubbing at my forehead, I waited for a few seconds before brushing it off.
"Don't ignore me!" the voice urged louder. I yelped and fell into the hallway wall. I felt stiff, and unmoveable. It was like something was holding me down. "Unlock the window." the voice ordered. I fought the urge to obey. I shook my head.
"No!" I screamed. "I won't listen." I dragged my unresponsive body to the kitchen, and held onto the table as control returned to me Panic began to trickle in as I realized the gravity of the situation. There was a demon here that wanted me. I couldn't let him have me; I had to keep fighting, starting with disobeying what it had told me to do. I grabbed the remaining chain from the basement and walked to my window.
I peered out. That's when I saw the seven boys standing outside my house, staring directly at my window. I hurried to shut the curtains and released a shaky breath. I did not just see seven demon creature things outside my house. I rushed to put the chain on the window while somewhat succeeding in staying hidden.
With a sigh, I hurried to my bed. "Tonight," I whispered,"No demon is going to get me."

Summoned
“Per aspera ad astra." Death. Mercilessly, it comes for all. But when a young man is given a second chance – a second life – to experience what he never has, what will he do? Leave the burdens of his past behind, improving upon his faults? Or will he collapse back into old sins, wasting the opportunity given to him? Perhaps even he himself does not know. * Join Andre on his journey as he explores a new world – one ripped straight from the pages of a D&D campaign he's never played. He will face monsters. He will face men. And above all, he will face himself. The story’s genre is your standard progression fantasy, isekai: magic, a system, and a level of technology suspiciously underdeveloped. I’ve borrowed tropes from various books I’ve read like “The Second Coming of Gluttony”. The similarities are there (particularly in the beginning), but I assure you the story is my own. It’s in the first-person perspective and has its own quirks, characters, and world for you to become immersed in. The upload schedule for this will be different from the usual fictions on this site: I’ll release chapters in batches rather than so many a week. I’m a college student, so I don’t want another deadline to worry about. Depending on the popularity/demand of the series, I might increase or decrease the rate of releases. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the story! P.S. This is my first fiction so make sure to point out mistakes wherever you see them. I’m doing this, partly, to increase my skill as a writer. However, be kind! I’m fragile, you know? Warning: ***This is far from your happy-go-lucky, feel-good adventure story. There will be content that some of you might not be comfortable with. And if you're already feeling skeptical reading this, click away and don't come back. If you're still here, what are you waiting for?***
