ow can I help you?" He asks me with a smirk, just as I enter.
"Cut the crap and tell me where the fuck she is?" I slam my hands on his table.
"Who boy? I don't know what you are talking about." He tells me with a sly smile.
"Bullshit." I spit out. "You took her, you took my Victoria. Tell me where she is!!"
"Oh, the sweet, pretty girl." He hums. "You are talking about the beauty that was brought in yesterday by Matteo." He smirks. The vein in my forehead starts to throb.
"I won't ask again." I threaten him. And these threats aren't empty. If something happens to her, I'll kill every person who was involved.
"I'll give you a hint." He says while I stand here impatiently. "She is where you started it all, where it all changed. Matteo was pissed, he took her there."
That is enough for me to know where she is.
"If something happens to her, I'll kill you and that fucker, Matteo." I give him my last glare before blasting out of the door.
God please, keep my Victoria safe. I can't live without her. I'm nothing without her.
"Rico fucking get Luigi. I'll be back."
I ignore his yells towards me and Sprint outside jumping over the dead bodies.
Fuckers.
I get inside my car and hold the steering wheel with trembling fingers. My heart is hammering in my chest. If something happens to her, I won't be able to forgive myself.
I won't forgive anyone.
With sweat dripping down my body I walk aimlessly around the woods. All my worst crimes started from here.

Then I see her.
Victoria is lying lifeless on top of the big rock. Blood dripping down her forehead. Her white shirt is now mostly red.
Without wasting a second I run towards her and drop on my knees next to her.
Only looking at her makes me sob. I tug at my hair painfully. I place my hands in her cheeks. They are so cold. Cold as ice.
"Ria? Baby? Please wake up." I say putting her head on my lap. "Baby you need to get up for me."
I check her pulse.
There is no pulse.
No heartbeat.
Nothing.
She is not waking up.
She is not here for me to tell her that I love her.
She's not here for me to show her how much I love her.
"Victoria Forbes don't you dare die on me. You are going to be fine. Just fine." I sob out.
"Victoria. Baby, please don't this to me I just got you, you can't leave me." I cry on her chest.
Her beautiful tan skin is paler than ever. Her glow has been disappeared and her pink soft full lips are dry and cracked.
I can't believe he killed her.
It's all my fault.
All my fault.
A sound escapes me that is more like wail than anything.
I'm going to kill each person related to
I cry and cry on her chest. This is the end of the world for me.
I can't describe the anguish I'm feeling. I took the life of the woman I love. I can't live with this.
I continue crying but when I hear a sound my cries cease. I look up to see...

Domhain: A Modern Fantasy LitRPG
(Blurb) When Ardan, a teenage elf boy, is thrown into the world- his world, of distrust and tension, he wants only one thing. To live a normal life, get a job, make friends, even start a family. But either dumb luck or fate won't leave him alone. With the power of a game system and magic, he's determined to find out the reason he was picked, and what makes him special. Along the way, hopefully meeting new friends and learning some magic here and there. (Synopsis) Domhain - a world split between five nations and five unique magical gifts; home of elves, dwarves, goblins, trolls, and humans, each of them so different but in reality more alike than anyone would like to acknowledge. Twenty years ago, the humans, weakest of the five, secretly acquired powerful magic and set out for war. The united forces of the other nations stood no chance. Humanity prevailed, proving itself as the new leader of the modern world. Now, Domhain is at peace but tensions are rising again. The humans want more than their territory back. They want it all. And they want revenge. But this time, the elves hide a dark power, and will stop at nothing to wipe the humans off Domhain forever. War is inevitable. Thousands will die. And the power to stop it all falls into the hands of none other than a particularly tall fifteen-year-old elf orphan. Ever since he could remember, Ardan lived a normal, sheltered, life in an elven orphanage. On the day he's finally able to leave for good and start his independent life, something strange occurs. He is given a pill, a gift, that turns his life into a game with levels, quests, dungeons, and a... talking weapon? All of which are capable of transforming his body and the world around him. As if that weren’t enough, Ardan learns the orphanage has hidden natural magic from him, and the whole world is intertwined with it. More importantly, he, as an elf, has a particularly unique and powerful heritage. That heritage, along with the benefits of his new power makes him a target for the greed of many... With nothing but his friends and a incredibly smart sister, he is determined to find out what makes him so special. Who can he trust?
