"Anastasia stop where are you going!" I Shouted
"Race ya" she called back.For a little girl she runs really fast.I sped up to catch up with her , almost breaking my ankles.
When I caught up to her she had the biggest smile on her face.
"Hi"
"Hi....so what do you want to do ?" I asked
"I'm hungry " my eyes grew wide.If she thinks she's drinking my blood she's certainly mistaken
"You want my blood!"
"No, I'm human like you" she responded.Wait what the hell is going on.
"What you're a Stone, your parents are vampires, you live with vampires" I say with confusion in my voice as well as on my face.
"You live with vampires but you're not one, daddy said I'll turn when I'm 18 "
"How old are you?"
"6, but I'm pretty smart for my age" I just nodded in response, she grabbed my hand and pulled me down the hall into the kitchen.
I sat her on the counter whilst I searched for something to eat.I handed her a sandwich and some grapes.
"Mmmm my favourite" she said whilst rubbing her belly.I sat on the counter next to her, we both were swinging our legs and eating grapes.
"Do you know my brother?"
"Ivan?"
"Yeah ivy " I tried my hardest not to laugh but I couldn't help it. I started to laugh , I looked at Anastasia who was giggling is well.
After we finished in the kitchen we explored the rest of the mansion,thankfully we didn't run into any vampires.We played stuck in the mud, i told her about my life and she told me of hers.I don't know why but I've grown to like this girl , she's so sweet and innocent. We agreed to one last game of hide and seek before I took her back to her parents .

"Fine I'll count first "
"Yay! Rolo!" That was what she called me.I could think of more flattering things I would rather be called , but she's only 6 and I doubt I'll see her again.
"1...2....3....4"i began to count.
....48..48..50! ready or not here I come"
I could hear her shuffling around but couldn't find her.
"I'm gonna get you Ana" I heard a giggle come from behind the door.I slowly moved towards the door so I could surprise her.
"I can hear you , are you behind the chair ?....no .What about under the table?....not there. Oh well you're not in this room." I walked towards the door again her laughter growing louder.
"Boo! I got ya!"i quickly grabbed her and began tickling her .She managed to break free, she ran out if the room and into the office.
It was quite in hear , there were books all on the back wall.A portrait of the Stone family hung above the wooden desk.The cabinets were wooden ,there was a computer on the desk.The room itself was very comforting and calm , It was a place where someone could sit down and work for hours.Whoever works in hear clearly doesn't liked to disturbed.
"Ana come on , come out from under the desk.You're gonna get me in trouble."I went behind the desk and scooped her in my arms.
"Fine it's you're turn to hide" once again she ran away from me.She was defiantly hard work.
"Hello beautiful , how did you get in here?" I heard her giggle.I don't want to play anymore , there's somebody else in here and I have a feeling there not going to be happy.
Anastasia's voice disappears, but I'm still hid here.

I can hear someone leaving the room and them the door close .I decided to wait for a little but just in case.Wheres Ana I'm in trouble if anything happens to her.
"I know you're there" My heart stopped
Just stay still there probably not talking about me.
"Are you going to come out or so I have to come and get you?" I knew they were talking to me but for some reason I was in denial and continued to stay hidden
"Don't make me drag you out, you're only get hurt....get the fuck out" oh no they sound mad and they didn't have to raise their voice.I could either stay in here and wait until I die of fear or wait for them to kill me.
Screw it I slowly got out from under the desk.Luckily I was facing the wall so I couldn't see their eyes but I could feel them burning the back I my head.
"Turn around ......now"
I turned around but still keeping my head down.I couldn't help myself I looked up to see ..........

God complex
A hero is summoned to another world, vanquishes evil, yadda yadda, saves the kingdom and lives happily ever after. There is no such hero in this story. Just a desperate youth with great ambition and very little to lose. A zero to hero style story set in a country clearly inspired by modern USA with just as many issues and the minority of mages often pulling strings from the shadows. I am also hoping the whole thing won't turn out edgy enough to cut me. I want to rely on actual good writing rather than cheap powertrip gimmicks. edit: Please don't mind Zetari's salty review. He is quite literally making up any use of the torture and human experimentation trope and says MC is blank after 4 chapters where he conveniently stops reading just at the start of his first character development. For extra entertainment, I will be uploading chapters two at a time and compose a relevant poem through the chapter names. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Isekai'd slave
Edward, a regular guy, is transported to another world at the wrong time and place. Slowly, he adapts, paves his way, and faces whatever misfortune awaits. This is my first work. I'm mostly messing around with different themes/characters. The first few chapters are pretty inconsistent, containing most of the rough experimentation, but if you can get past them - I'm sure you'll have a much nicer time. Do not expect anything of notable quality; however, any advice/criticism/suggestions are greatly appreciated. The story won't involve any dark themes, so no excessive violence, rape, etc. Discord

The Magic Swordsman
Clearing the most difficult mode of an RPG game called ?The Invasion Of The Demon King?, Hiro Miyagawa unlocked a new difficulty, the ?Hardcore Mode?. Pressing the "Yes" Button, a sudden white light flashed on the screen of the TV, forcing him to close his eyes. Due to the lack of sleep from playing the game three days in a row, Hiro fell asleep and reincarnated into Theo Regnard the moment he woke up. As the support character of the game ?The Invasion Of The Demon King?, Theo Regnard was destined to die at the beginning of the game. Refusing this kind of fate happening to him, he resolved himself to become stronger and walk into an unknown road instead of choosing the supposed "Good Ending". This is the story of a man who was cursed by the demon god, a story of a fallen prince who has chosen the path filled with blood and revenge, a story of a support character who became the main character, a story of the man called Theo Regnard. Author Note This is a slow-paced story and the first book that I'm writing. I hope that those who are interested in that book can find the enjoyment they were looking for.

This was not one of those times.A quick warning from me before you read! This story has broken characters. They all have flaws and none are perfect. The MC can't fight, he's only a human just 18 years old. As it is tagged with mature you should also know that suicide, while not a core theme plays a part in the story. Abuse both mental and physical as well. Also, I make some really stupid jokes. What do Earth's morals mean in a world where killing is easy? When Bran is tricked by an uninformative and unhelpful goddess he is taken to another world. How will the weak Bran survive in this world without any cheat skills, or even knowledge of the basic human language?
