《Stylish, sassy and feisty》Chapter 71 - 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬

I had warmed up to her quite a lot compared to a hell of a lot of other people. She was always there at the corner of the room waiting to interfere if she had to. I saw her in her business meetings multiple time now and she has all the power and control. People respected her for building her power from nothing and that was a very much envious trait that people would kill to have. She had it with no ease except from her hard work. A very much admirable woman.
Now, she was curled up in my bed holding to my body; warm and cosy. She was drop dead gorgeous. I think partly the reason was because she was asleep. So, she looked so peaceful and calm. Maybe I should choke her for ruing my life. That'll teach her a lesson. But hey she helped me get over my fear of heights so maybe I'll give her a second chance.
She started to toss and turn over and over again rubbing her eyes open so that she somewhat awoke.
"Good morning, Nem."
"Ughhhh, get lost."
"You're so nice."
"Wake up right now so we can have break- "but before I could even fish off my sentence, I had a gun held at my temples. For more clarification, Nemesis had a gun at my head.
"Fuck. Off." She stated then dropped her head back onto the pillow and didn't move. She could have possibly looked dead if you looked from a different point of view. I chuckled and got into the shower. I wore a suit and left to go the warehouses.
As soon as I walked in, I spotted Fel ix having a chat with Sloan. Sloan had recently been caught up about the new shipment that went missing as he was off on holiday and finally came back. He was one of the men that I could leave my life in and he would do everything in his power to save me.

"Boss." Both of them had greeted me.
"Felix. Sloan. Felix, mind telling me what exactly you had told Reina to do yesterday morning?"
"Uh, yeah you know Boss, I think the chickens are flying so I'm going to go check on them. All right?" and just like that he had turned away and speed walked out of the door. Sloan had simply chuckled.
"You find that funny?"
"Yeah, kind of. Can you blame me?" I just groaned at the total fact that I have a bunch of morons working for me even if they were the best in the industry.
"Follow me to the office." We both walked to the office.
"What the hell has happened to the shipment?" I commanded.
"They knew about it. We have a rat. Most likely the- "
"Suppler." I interrupted him.
"God damnit."
"What are you going to tell the Russian?"
"What they only need to know."
"They're picky on time Jax you know that."
"They're also family in case you don't remember but that's my cousin. So, either way, he'll put up with it."
"You should make the phone call then."
"Mmmhm, leave."
I took my phone call and dialled Dimitri's number.
"Jax Martinez. To what do I owe the pleasure?"
"Business purely business."
"Uh uh carry on."
"We have a rat who snaked and now the shipments gone."
"The shipment you were going to sell to me." I didn't know what to take of that tone.
"Yeah."
"Any suspicions?"
"The supplier. Only my closest men knew about it."
"Your closest men may be the rat, брат (brother)."
"Yeah, anyway changing the topic from that how's your fiancée"
"A fucking pain in the ass. Doesn't stop pushing any of my buttons."

His fiancée was Moya Vitiello. The Italian Mafia psycho. Crazier than any of the dons in that regions. She's known as the Dead Queen. The batshit crazy woman who doesn't mind killing anyone. Dimitri told me about how their first meeting was her shooting her brother and wanting to kill her dad. She most definitely was crazy but in the long run I think she was the right match for Dimitri. Both were psychos.
"will the big bad Dimitri fall in love for once?" I teased him.
"Right." He was rolling his eyes and I could feel it from a whole continent away, "you must have a girl by now, Jax no?"
"Yeah, there's one but anyway I got to go." I responded and cut the phone call abruptly as I recalled I have some business at the fight club but before then I got to see Steven to fix up another lie detector test for the supplier to come and do it.
I walked into the fight club and saw both Nem and Angelo in the ring. How does this always happen?

Galactic Economics
Humanity enters the galaxy and makes First Contact, only to begin to realize that not everything is at it seems. It appears that the galactic alien community has forgotten to invent some rather important economic concepts that human civilization has taken for granted. This is a look at a hypothetical galactic scale barter economy, how that would work, or how as one of our main characters Sarah realizes... it doesn't. And as the galaxy falls apart at the seams, it's up to the best and brightest in humanity to put things back together. Story contains a lot about markets, logistics, development, and the best and worst of human history. Not so much Space Marines nuking aliens. If you enjoyed the trade negotiations and Senate politics in the Star Wars prequels, and wished that there was an entire standalone story consisting solely of those parts, this might be for you! Galactic Economics is also posted on reddit here.

Soul Power 9999
I... don't remember how I died. Or anything else, really. I don't know who... what I am, what this dark space I am in is, or why the souls all around me are looking at me. But I do know that if the world starts falling apart, escaping comes first, even before listening to the messages that keep ringing inside my head. I only really remember the first one: [The [Simplification Process] has begun.] And so, while the world was doing a 180, I was stuck deep underground as an incorporeal soul, absorbing the essences of thousands others like me who had been torn to shreds just to prevent myself from dissipating, and trying desperately to go up while recovering jumbled up memories from my past. I did try to posses monsters to gain a physical body, but... It seems my soul got too powerful to be shackled down by a vessel. Releases every two days at 12:00 on Central Europe (GMT+1)

Defy the Legends
"The hand of Fate works in ways inconceivable to those uneducated in her divine method. No trial reaches an end until she sings of it's conclusion... and she's very shy." ~??? Defy The Legends follows a group of forgotten heroes dubbed the "Defiant," each of nine being the reincarnations of legendary warriors embodying the virtues of humanity, who defended the world of Takera from the denizens of the Void thousands of years past. Through cryptic and oftentimes dire means, each coming of these heroes are slowly but surely drawn to each other by an age-old bond, bringing them together when the world is on the brink of annihilation: this cataclysm known as the Great Schism. However, they now remain scattered throughout the world, following a horrific event that ultimately left all but one with a curse to nullify their bond, ensuring that they'd never reunite to prevent the Schism's next arrival. One of those possibly stricken with this curse is named Kyoya Miskrit, the miscreant unknowingly pursuing a path with no way back -- and with a new threat arising from deep within the Demons' Void, he's forced to trust someone believing themselves to be a long-lost ally and assist them in gathering the Defiant once again, in hopes of silencing the whispers of darkness that have begun creeping back from the depths... ...Only this time, for good. _________________________________________________________________________ ***As of Feb. 1st, 2021, the version of this fiction found on Wattpadd is officially synced with the version showcased here.
