《MYTHICAL DESCENDANT: Married to Mr. Fox》Chapter 10: HEARTACHE
Advertisement
Amayah felt unhappy as Jayden let go of her hand. Ember just walked past them, but Amayah said in a dissatisfied tone, "Are you the woman Jayden married?"
Ember stopped and looked at her. Then she answered, "Yes I am, and are you his mistress?"
Hearing the answer from Ember, she felt indignant. Jayden was shocked to hear that Ember thought Amayah was his mistress. He felt a bit hurt.
"Mistress? Huh! You're so hilarious. Do you know Jayden likes me?"
"Amayah! Stop talking nonsense!" Jayden raised his voice.
"Nonsense? Isn't it true you like me?"
Amayah hugged Jayden's hand tightly and said in a flirty tone. Seeing them so close makes her frustrated. Before her rage explodes, she wants to get away from them as quickly as possible.
"I'll excuse myself. I don't have time to hear your love story?"
Ember showed a straight face and walked away.
"You!"
Amayah yells at Ember, but she tries to keep it under control because Jayden is present.
"Return to your home; it's too late." Jayden told Amayah, but she ignored him.
"Jayden, does the woman know your secret? What if she knew about you? She wouldn't run away? Would she accept you?"
Amayah asked with a mocking expression, and he felt irritated looking at her face.
"You leave, leave now!"
Jayden expressed it in an angry tone. Amayah was shocked because that was the first time Jayden scolded her. She got in the car and left the mansion with an unsatisfied face.
While Ember was taking a shower, she felt unhappy after hearing Amayah's words that Jayden liked her. It makes her recall her ex-boyfriend Zane cheating on her. She feels Jayden will also do the same as Zane did. But she also thought she had no right to feel angry because she and Jayden had just met and didn't know about his past.
After the shower, Ember laid down on the bed and tried to sleep. Jayden walked into the room, and the lights in the room were dimmed. Jayden looked at Ember, who was lying down, and he felt guilty about what had just happened. As a result, he wishes to clarify the misunderstanding situation with her.
"She's not my mistress. As you know, I don't have any mistresses. I just got you as my wife. Nobody else, except you. So, please don't misunderstand."
After Jayden clarified everything to Ember, he went into the bathroom. Ember, who pretended to sleep, heard everything Jayden said to her. She felt her heart pounding. Jayden's words tell her that, "I just had you as my wife, nobody else, except you." Keep playing in her ears and mind. She was happy and blushing. However, she didn't like Amayah's touching him freely. She still can not accept it.

Early in the morning, Ember got up, got ready, and left the room slowly because she didn't want to wake Jayden.
Kyla saw Ember and asked. "Ma'am, where are you going?"
"I want to go to work. Kyla, I will not have breakfast here." Ember hurriedly went out, and she got in the car and drove to her shop.
Jayden woke up and looked to his side. Ember was gone. He showered, got ready, and left the room. When Jayden came across Kyla he asked her, "Where's Ma'am?"
"She's already left. She said she wouldn't have breakfast here. Breakfast for you is ready, sir.
"No, I'm not hungry. You just eat that food."
Jayden lost his appetite after learning that Ember had already left. He went to find Xander, who was outside.
"Xander, we're going to the company today."
While on the way to the office, Jayden just kept quiet. He's kept thinking about Ember. He knew Ember was angry at him and didn't want to see him. Xander noticed Jayden's expression, and he was curious.
"Master, are you okay? I heard Amayah is back from Paris." Jayden sighed after hearing Amayah's name mentioned.
"Yesterday, she told Ember that I liked her. She was spouting nonsense." Jayden expressed it with an unhappy expression.
"What did Ember say?"
"She said she didn't have time to listen to the love story of Amayah, but from last night until this morning, Ember didn't talk with me. I think she ignored me, and you know what else, Ember asked Amayah if she was my mistress. Do I look that bad?"
"That's why you're not happy?"
"Hmm... maybe."
Xander noticed that Jayden seemed to really care about Ember's feelings. He looks worried if Ember is thinking bad about him. Xander believes Jayden has begun to develop feelings for Ember.
At the florist shop, Ember arranges flowers, waters the flowers, and cleans the shop. Aubrey, who had just arrived, was stunned to see the shop already cleaned.
"You came early?"
"Well, we haven't been here in two days."
"That's why you came early?"
Ember paused for a moment, and nodded her head. Actually, the real reason is that she wants to avoid meeting Jayden. She didn't know how to face him. Because he knew she was angry, that's why he clarified it to her last night.
In the company, architecture. Jayden is the CEO of the company. On the way into the elevator, Jayden came across Ember's father.

"Oh, Jayden, how are you? How's Ember?"
"She's fine, don't worry." Jayden responded with a forced smile. He was trying to hide the truth that he'd just made Ember angry.
"She's not making your life hard, right?"
"No, not at all." Jayden stared at the floor while talking. Damian nodded. He was glad Ember was just fine and the elevator opened.
"I'll excuse myself."
Jayden bowed his head, and quickly got out of the elevator and went into his office. He was worried if Damian would ask him more about Ember. He didn't know how to respond.
While in the office, Jayden is unhappy because he is busy thinking about Ember. He held up his phone, and only then did he realize he didn't have Ember's contact number.
"Is this woman bewitching me? I've never felt so insane before. Why does my mind keep thinking about her? I should be thinking about work, not her."
Jayden scratches his head and feels miserable. Suddenly, Jayden received a call from Camilla.
"Hello Mom."
"My dear, today there will be a company party. Don't forget to go, okay?"
Party? He's not feeling like going. But he didn't have a choice.
"All right, mom." Jayden responded with an unenergized tone.
While Ember and Aubrey were having lunch. Ember also receives a phone call from Camilla.
"Hello, Mom, what's the matter?"
"Ember, tonight, our company is having a party. You're coming to the party, okay? Aubrey is also invited to attend."
"Okay mom, after work we're going to the party. Just send me the location."
"Okay, see you tonight."
"Yes, mom." After talking, they turned off the phone.
"What party?" Aubrey was curious.
"My mother-in-law's company is having a party. You're invited too."
"Really? I haven't been to a party in a long time."
"Seriously? Two days ago, you just went to my wedding."
"Oh, I forgot, hahaha."
Aubrey laughs out loud because she's forgotten everything. Ember, on the other hand, was curious if Jayden also attended the party. She thinks she should make up with him and they should be nice to each other.
At 5 pm, Ember and Aubrey close the shop, and they go to Carlos's shop.
Upon arriving there, Carlos greeted them.
"Hi ladies, what can I help you with?"
"We want to go to a party. Can you dress us up?"
Ember pleaded him. They didn't bring anything to wear, so they didn't have a choice to ask Carlos for help.
"Of course, both of you. Come follow me."
After finishing, Carlos complimented them because they looked so pretty. Ember wears a backless long black bodycon dress with a slit to her thigh. Aubrey wore a long red halter dress with a slit to her thigh.
Ember drove to the address given by Camilla, along with Aubrey. After arriving at the party location, they both got out of the car and went inside.
Inside the party hall, Camilla was with Jayden and Xander. She looks around looking for them.
"I invited Ember and Aubrey to come, but it looks like they haven't come yet."
Jayden was shocked to hear Ember come. He can't wait to meet Ember because he hopes Ember will forget about what happened yesterday. But suddenly, a familiar voice greeted them.
"Hi, Madam Camilla, how are you? We haven't seen each other in a long time."
Camilla's face changed because she was surprised to see Amayah. Camilla looks at Jayden, and Jayden tries to escape the gaze of Camilla. Jayden felt miserable again. What would Ember think if she saw Amayah was here?
"Amayah, aren't you in Paris?" Camilla asked her with a dissatisfied expression.
"Yes, but I came back because I found out Jayden was married." Amayah expressed her sadness in a sad tone. But Camilla felt disgusted looking at her expression.
"Well, he's married and has a wife." Camilla shows a proud expression. Amayah smiled, but with a forced smile. She looks at Jayden with flirty eyes and comes closer to him.
"Jayden, will you be with me during this party?"
Amayah held Jayden's hand. Jayden tried to pull his hand away, but Amayah grabbed his hand tightly. He's feeling annoyed and wants to push her away, but there are many eyes looking at them. Camilla is not happy to see Amayah so close to Jayden.
At the party, suddenly, people were murmuring. They were finding out what people were murmuring. Ember and Aubrey had just arrived at the party. Their beauty fascinates everyone. Both of them headed towards Camilla after they saw her.

You could do 18+ actions, take over kingdoms, destroy guild bases entirely, and even rob NPCs. Of course there are laws in certain areas that prohibited certain actions but that all depended on what guild was in control of the land you are at. There are 4 continents with there being several countries dividing each continent into different sections and each having their own difficulties. The strongest continent of them all is Land of the Gods, which only the most legendary of players can enter and become apart of. It is a small island which only has 10 inhabitants but these 10 people could easily take over any other continent on the planet but decide to lay dormant on the island, waiting for something strong to spice up the game. Each of these 10 players is considered a God in the game and even have their own following base. Each God had major influence over the millions of other players in the game but that was all in the past.

This story follows one of the best players to have ever graced the game, Frew, the God of Miracles, and his new adventures but it is not as expected. Not one of the 14 million players could expect what would be coming up next in Cinder Souls II nor would anyone be prepared for it. *****WARNING, IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE VIRTUAL REALITY ASPECT IT IS NEXT TO NONE EXISTANT EXCEPT FOR CHAPTERS IN THE FAR FUTURE***** For the original cover picture, check out this link! ----> https://www.pinterest.com/pin/420875527667199123

A Forgotten Hero
(author: This is gonna be a long synopsis I apologise. This should be a prolouge but as you will see I have a seperate prolouge, please forgive me. This fiction as a warning beforehand is as basic as it comes, prettymuch following all story conventions of both the mecha and school life genres. I am mostly writing this to figure out my writing style before I begin something truly creative and uique. I dont wanna ruin something I worked hard on by being illiterate. Also illustrations are at a minimum because all I have access to is MS paint.) In the year 2028 humanity (accidentally) created the means to travel great distances through space in a short period of time. This has led humanity down the road of great technological advancement and also led to the spread of humanity across their home system and just begiining first steps upon other solar systems planets. In the year 2033 the human colonies in space broke from the chains of their old countries creating hyper advanced societies disregarding nationality and any other defining factor. Two space societies formed the Solar Empire a monarchic society with its capitol on the moon Titan which controeld the entire human home system aside from Earth which still remained divided into seperate contries. The other was the Extra-solar Leauge. A mysterious society outside of easy contact range with any other humans besides themselves. To help with construction and other work outside of sealed and breatheable atmospheres of their cities and ships the Solar Empire and Extra-Solar Leauge created what became known as Advanced Movement Shells(AMS). These machines are best described as huge exoskeletons or "mechs", and they aided greatly in getting things done by increasing strength, durability, and the amount of tools able to be used. They also aided in quelling rebellions among extremist groups forming in these new societies. Finally in the year 2050 the Solar Empire having divinated their emperor, and now beliving themselves to be their religions chosen people, the Solar Empire declared a holy war of conquest against all the nations of Earth in order to conquer it under the idea that all humanity was required to bend to their divine emperors rule. The first month of the war whent badly for earth as the divided nations fell one by one due to the Empires superior weaponry among other technologies which made their forces nearly invincible. The AMS were used to great effect due to their almost "magical" level of technological advancement. Some nations able to put up some kind of defense created their own versions of these technological terrors. From there the war became a brutal stalemate and suddenly was won by the forces of earth. Why this is still hasn't come to the light of the common man, but one thing is for certain it took a heroic effort from one, or many people to win it for humanity...
