《Loving him from afar [Completed]》《 Chapter 8: Musical Night 》
Advertisement
The day I've been dreading for so long was finally here. Yet there I was pacing back and forth in my room while taking occasional breaks only to stop and stare at the huge pile of clothes on my bed and then whine because I couldn't find THE perfect dress.
Only a few hours were left until the event and I still had no idea what to wear. Letting out a loud sigh I sat down on the pile of clothes. My mom entered my room, and I pretended not to look at her since she wasn't letting me go buy a new dress. She then opened my closet and there it was, the perfect dress.
My jaw dropped in shock, there's no way it was there before! My mom's a magician. As she chuckled, she lightly patted my back and then moved out of my room to let me get ready. After taking a quick shower, getting dressed, and wearing light makeup I was ready.
Taking one last look at myself, and after wearing lipstick on my already coated lips I made my way outside where my father was waiting, honking the car for the past 5 minutes.
I entered the venue. It was dark and spacious with a dance floor, huge stage and disco lights everywhere.
I pretended to scan the venue with amazed, wide eyes when in fact I was looking for a certain someone. Rather, I spotted my friends and went to join them. While talking, I saw him enter.
He was wearing a black buttoned shirt with black jeans, his hair as usual roughly brushed back except for a few short strands of hair.
I could stare at him forever.
I adjusted my strap and whispered to Natalie in her ear that he's here. Despite asking her not to look around immediately, she did a very obvious 180• turn. I couldn't help face palming myself.

Soon, the concert started. Somewhere along getting closer to the stage, I lost sight of him.
I decided to enjoy the night. After hours of listening to the loud music, my ears started hurting so I went to stand at the back.
I chose to stand at a high place where I could see everyone rather clearly. My lips naturally formed a smile when I finally saw him. He was the only person I could see as if he was under the spotlight. He was moving his body slightly to the song while lipsynching.
I've never seen him like this before. That must mean he liked songs or specifically this song.
But then I saw where he was looking.
He was looking at another girl the same way I look at him.
That night, I got my heart broken by someone who wasn't even mine, to begin with.

This is the Trial by Conquest — a battle-royale, civilisation, build-off. Lose and you die. Win and you rule over your new fantasy world as king! Maximus Rum would rather not die. In fact, right now what he’d most rather is find his pants and figure out what the hell is going on. The beach he woke up on is empty and quiet. But he’d better get a move on. The Trial has already begun. Note: I am not intending to write this as a harem story. However, if you believe that a man knowing and having sex with women constitutes a harem, and if that is not your bag, please consider this your warning. Genre: A village-building, dungeoncrawling, LitRPG — taking inspiration from games such as HoMM, Civilization, ANNO, TotalWar, Warcraft, and others. Tone: Mostly 'hell, yeah!' fun with occasional dips into darkness. May contain: Violence, combat, fights, etc. Sexual humour, references, descriptions, and debatably non-explicit acts. Moral ambiguity and occasional sophistication. Nuts.

The Prince of the Sand
“Today you have to be the strongest man of all, son. After we deliver you, you will survive, and we will die.” When the Xalya Dungeon is about to fall under the attack of an alliance of savages, the last lord of the steppe entrusts his firstborn with a painful mission: Dashvara has to pass himself off as a member of an enemy clan, as a Shalussi, to exact revenge in a shameful way. Forced to see his people killed or enslaved, this heartbroken but still proud and humorous steppe man will soon be dragged in a surprising adventure that will shake his will and beliefs. This story follows Dashvara as he struggles through foreign lands and discovers that the world is not only made of deserts and horses but also of “civilized” societies with strong bureaucracy and slave-based systems. Author's note: The fantasy setting has some ancient Roman influences. Also, expect a bit of slice-of-life and comedy along Dashvara's philosophical journey. Despite the “gore” tag, violence is not the focus of this story and descriptions are not particularly gruesome. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a reworked and continued translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2016 and 2018.
