《His Unknown Wife》CHAPTER 18

Michael.
The next morning I woke up with a little light head and once I was up I was flooded with notifications of the busy schedule that I had for today.
I had a lot of meetings lined up for me in a day as I had a lot of work pending. So I left for work way too early and just when I was out of the room I saw Sarah's room door was shut and I got this quick urge of seeing her.
I pushed those thoughts real hard and walked past her room. Once I got out of the house all I told to myself was to focus on the work that was important and leave everything else behind.
I entered my office building and all greetes me and welcomed me back. Like planned no on was aware about what had happen, the wedding and all the other drama.
The only thing people knew was I had been out for a long vacation with family and close friends and I had to keep it that way.
Also the people who were a part of it were mostly people from Olivia's family and they would not utter a word out as they had all received a legal warning from my end.
But who would keep this girl's mouth shut. She is always acting like a teenager I mean how the hell can I handle her she only knows to make faces, behave like nothing happen, talk to herself, smile when she is sitting doing nothing, eat little..seriously why does she even eat so less why the hell can't she even have something that can make her a little better than that size she has may be she is not even XS, I think I can just lift her with one arm but that again would hurt her she is so damn soft that I sometimes feel if I hold her too tight she might just break, next time I have got to be careful with her she need some protein and some good rest she must be sleeping now. Oh.. Her sleeping face and her sleepy face are just so cute that I could watch her sleep all night and do nothing as long as I can ignore her little color bone and a lot can be taken care but her color bone really does put me in trouble and I cannot control myself. I don't even know if she is an adult for me to just. Oh no I don't even know her age I really need someone to get me all that information.

I quickly took the phone and asked my resources to get me all the details on Serah. The person on the other end requested for some days time as she was a less social person and was studying in Australia so after a quick talk we settled for a week's time.
I took a long breath and immediately got an urge to look at her and that's when I realised that I had no pictures of her with me. Just when I was in these thoughts I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in" I said and in walked my PA June.
"Sir the meeting is in 5 minutes, since you were not out I just came in to check, is everything alright do you need something?" She asked.
Serah...
Did I just... What the heck man...
I looked at her in shock think did I say that name out loud for her to hear and she said, "Meeting with the client sir"
And that's when I realised what the hell was I thinking all this while what the hell was wrong with me was I even in my best of sence. Never was I ever distracted from my work and now what was I thinking about a girl really.
"I'll be there" I said and she left.
What is wrong with me did I just...... Hell with this thoughts what I'm I doing I think like she has trapped me in herself what is going on with me why I'm I so much involved in her what is all this...
I forcefully pushed all these thoughts and quickly went to the meeting.

Apollyon's Curse
Within the pages of folklore and fantasy, tales of people who chase after the dream of eternity, of living forever, rarely find a happy ending. They are either struck by the grim truth of reality, give up, and return to mortality or face a ghastly realization of their wishes. The latter often the worse fate, as they come to realize, only far too late, that what they sacrificed was worth far more than the time they gained. Ultimately, the common thread in these stories is that “immortality is as much a curse as it is a blessing”. People either realize it early and give up or are doomed to inevitably face its consequences. In the world Enrich lives in, that saying does hold merit. Every pathway towards eternal life has shackles of its own. They bring those high above down to the ground, evening the playing field. It is thanks to these fundamental laws that ambitious mortals are able to defy the heavens and achieve immortality themselves. The variety of methods result in each of these bindings varying in intensity and degree of freedom. Enrich’s path doesn't break this trend. Though, after what he did to himself, most wouldn’t even consider him a living thing anymore. On the day of his ascension, a world’s worth of souls were melted and recast. On that day, the human’s path had reached its conclusion, recast into Apollyon. An artifact, a weapon, is eternal, after all. As for the curse? The payment will be made, as it must. So why not offload the curse to someone else? Mortals throw their lives away for all manner of petty reasons, noble or otherwise, especially in desperation. Eventually, someone will be willing to foot the bill. Most will if given the chance. The bait is far too tempting, after all. Power, status, knowledge. All at their fingertips. If only they say “yes”. And Apollyon is very willing to help any lost souls. If they give up everything in return, of course.

Genesis
Taryn is a mutant in a world where mutants are considered no more than monsters in human skin. The descendants of the gods rule as mortal Kings and the entire world waits for their fates to be decided in the prophesied battle between the Last Lothor King and the mutants’ Dark Prince. But Taryn believes this is all fantasy, born from legends and myth.

Taryn is determined to change that.Her plan is a simple one: win the King to her cause and the faiths of the masses will compel them to follow. It should have been an easy enough task; the King doesn’t seem to believe in the prophecies any more than she does.

The Polyglot's Rune
Fear. Regret. Memories. They all flashed before my eyes as my life began to fade away. I felt a darkness encroach upon my heart followed by a sinister foreboding. Within that moment I was asked a single question by a powerful, mystical being. “Brave being, do you wish to accomplish a great deed in your life?” “No,” I refused, but the voice did not listen. It summoned me to its world only to try to have me slaughtered. But then, I was saved by him, the princess who disguised herself as a man. He was hellbent on revenge, and he was determined to drag me down with him. This story is meant to be a bit of a mix of genres and cultures, so there are some elements that may seem xianxia like, but it's not exactly the same so I didn't tag it. It also has multiple lead characters but is written in first person. Schedule: Dropped Normal Chapter Length: approximately 3000 words Warning: Tagged [15+] for Strong Language and Violence (Gore and Profanity aren't very prevalent, but I added the warning tags just in case).
