《Laddie's Daughter & The Lost Boys》16. Quiet Time
Advertisement
MAYS POV....
I don't know how long I had been in the memory room for, but the pounding on the door had stopped ages ago. I can still hear Marko and Paul calling out to me and telling me that everything will be alright. I want to be in their arms where I feel safe but I have exhausted myself from crying.
I shut my eyes for bit, then I felt someone pick me up and whispered to me "you'll be alright, you are safe now, I will always be here for you". I felt safe in their arms and I let myself embrace the darkness called sleep.
MARKOS POV....
It has become silent in the memory room; Paul and I were worried for May. Apparently May does this when things become too much emotionally for her. The memory room is one of her escapes from the world, like her hideout near the beach.
I could hear Laddie and Lucy in the kitchen chatting and catching up. It sounded like they were worried for May but wanted to give her some space. We heard a noise come from the memory room. Paul and I quickly stood up, when it sounded like the door was going to open.
We looked towards the door as it started opening, out walks Dwayne with May in his arms asleep. We were shocked, Dwayne was alive again. Paul and I go to say something but Dwayne tells us to be quite.
"How?" I ask him. "How are you alive again?"
"We will talk about this in the morning, for now show me where Mays room is please. She needs rest". Dwayne asks.
We ended up showing Dwayne to Mays room, where he gently lays May on her bed and makes sure that she stays asleep. As we go to walk out, Mays arm shoots out to grab Dwayne "stay, please" she says while sleeping.

Paul and I went to the spare bedroom to grab some pillows and blankets. We proceed to Mays room, where we made ourselves comfortable on the floor. Dwayne had found a comfy chair and sat in it close to the door. He proceeded to keep watch and made sure we were safe life he did when we were back in the cave.
......TIME SKIP........
MAYS POV....
I woke up to see that I was in my room. I looked around me and saw that Paul was spread out like a star fish on the floor. Marko had somehow wormed his way to Paul and cuddled into his side, he had also wrapped the blanket around his body like a cocoon.
I look towards my door to see that there was someone sitting in my comfy chair. I slowly reach towards to Marko and started shaking him a little bit. "Marko, hey Marko, wake up, Marko". I whisper to him.
I heard movement to see that the figure, had come closer to me. He put a finger to my lips and whispered to me, "Shhh, Little one. Let them sleep a little bit longer, they were worried for you".
I look towards the stranger and couldnt make out their face, I reach over to my bed side table and turned on the lamp. The lamp slightly lights the room, I turn back towards the stranger to see that I knew who this was. I found myself whispering his name "Dwayne!".
He looks towards me with care in his eyes, "Hi Little One".

Guardian's Folly, Dryad's Melancholy
With a life of retail getting him down, Cormac had long looked forward to his vacation of spending all week hiking in the woods. Accidentally saving a dryad and getting dragged into hidden world of magic brought that to an abrupt end. Ixia the dryad had been thrown into a long slumber, awoken by a kind man that she formed a fast bond with. She would need all the help she could get to reclaim her forest from sinister forces that had ruled her forest for ages in her absence. As both work together, they will find neither world is what they had thought. A modern world with magic lurking at the edges, and a hidden world of magic stretching the limits of "hidden". A dryad begins the slow path towards understanding the world she has awoken to as she tries to reclaim her forest, and a guardian wishes he had more than a shovel to help with all that.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
