《Little Rebel》Chapter 20
Advertisement
I felt the car stop, but I kept my eyes closed, still leaning on Perrie.
"I wouldn't wake her up." I heard Perrie say. "She'll be cranky and will be annoying. Well, more than usual."
I internally rolled my eyes, knowing she was right.
I felt someone pick me up. "I got it." They muttered.
Someone else closed the car door.
I was carried inside and upstairs, then placed on a bed, probably mine.
They took off my glasses for me.
Whoever brought me up leaned over and kissed my head, making me almost open my eyes to see who is was.
They then left my room, closing the door behind them.
Who was that? Kian? Maybe.
I just rolled over, getting more comfortable and drifted off to sleep again.
###########
I woke up again and sat up, groggy.
I rubbed my eyes and put on my glasses, which were on my nightstand.
I decided to change, so I put on a pair of yoga pants and a sweatshirt and went downstairs.
"Well hey there sleeping beauty." Ricky said.
I grunted and sat next to him on the couch, tucking my feet under me and leaning against Ricky.
He just patted my head and went on watching Teen Wolf.
I sighed and watched tv with him.
"Oh, hi Jordyn." Kian said, coming in from the backyard, soaking wet.
I looked at him confused.
"Andrea's over and everyone other than you two are in the pool." He explained.
I nodded and cuddled into Ricky's side more.
"You ok?" Kian asked, looking concerned.
I shrugged. "I don't know. Even though I just woke up, I still feel, like, super tired."
Kian came over to me and felt my forehead.
"You do feel a little warm. Are you sure you're just tired?" He asked.
Again, I shrugged.

"I don't really know how I feel. I just feel weird. Weird and tired." I said.
Kian nodded. "Well just stay here with Ricky and I'll check on you in a little."
I nodded. "Kay."
Kian got a blanket and draped it over me.
I laid there for the rest of the day. Ricky stayed with me, getting up every once in a while.
I kept falling asleep, then waking up.
Ricky asked if I wanted to pick something to watch, but I said no, since I keep falling asleep.
I lazily traced my new tattoo with my pointer finger as we watched an episode of Psych on Netflix.
Everyone had come in by now and were doing different things.
Kian and Andrea went out to eat and Jc invited his girlfriend Lia over, and they were watching a romantic movie by themselves.
Connor had gone up to his room to go on Tumblr or something.
Nash had gone to bed, saying he was tired and wanted to retire early.
I was still leaning in Ricky and my legs were in Cameron's lap.
Perrie was sprawled across a chair, texting someone.
My eyes felt heavy and I could barely keep them open.
Ricky had his arm around me and was mindlessly stroking my hair.
Which was making me even more tired.
"You can go to sleep if you want Jordyn." Cameron said.
Everyone looked at me and I just closed me eyes.
"Well then I probably will." I said.
"Go ahead." Ricky told me.
I moved so my head was in Ricky's lap instead of on his shoulder.
He pushed my hair out from my face and smoothed it out.
I was almost asleep, when Kian and Andrea got back.
"Is she asleep?" Kian asked.
"Yeah." Ricky said, still running his fingers through my hair.

It felt really good.
"Whats wrong with her?" Andrea asked.
"She told me she wasn't feeling very good earlier. But she didn't really feel sick, just weird and tired." Kian explained.
"Well something is definitely wrong, because she was really quiet today and did nothing but lay down." Perrie said.
"Yeah, a normal Jordyn would be talking nonstop and wouldn't be able to get through one episode of anything. But she sat here with me watching tv ever since she woke up." Ricky said.
"Well, we'll see how she is in the morning and can deal with it then. Now it's important that she just sleeps." Kian said.
I agree, they should just shut up and let me sleep.
But of course they had to stay and keep talking.
Not about me necessarily. Just talking in general.
I had been drifting in and out of sleep for a while, not being able to sleep fully because they're voices kept waking me up.
Andrea had gone home and Kian, Perrie, Cameron, and Ricky were still talking.
"Did you know?" I heard Kian say.
"Know what?" Perrie asked.
He didn't say anything for a while. "About...Jordyn." Kian finally breathed out.
I almost opened my eyes hearing him say my name, but I just coudn't bring myself to. It was almost lie my eyelids were glued shut.
"Kian." Cameron said, almost in a warning tone.
"No, you told me Perrie helped Jordyn. So I want to know." Kian said.
Ricky shushed Kian since his voice was getting louder and kept stroking my hair.
"Perrie helped Jordyn with what?" Ricky asked.
"No one said anything.
"Nothing." Perrie said, sounding tense.
"No, I know. But did you." Kian said.
"Of course I knew!" Perrie burst out. I could almost see her flailing her arms around.
"Perrie." Cameron hissed.
"Sorry." She whispered. "But how did you find out?"
"She told me." Cameron said after a long pause.
It finally clicked in my head what they were talking about.
About...Jordyn.
She told me.
Perrie helped her.
Cameron told Kian!
I groaned and turned over, wanting to get up and confront him, but feeling like crap and not able to open my eyes.
"Shhh." Perrie said.
Ricky pulled my closer and kept smoothing my hair out.
"What are you talking about?" Ricky whispered after I didn't move for a couple minutes.
It was silent for a long time.
And whether they told Ricky or not, I wouldn't have known, because I finally fell into a deep sleep.

Traveleyan
Traveleya (more often referred to by her accomplice as "Miss Cleyne"), is an otherwise plain and ordinary twenty-seven year old woman in every aspect save one: she can see things that others can't, a skill that makes her an invaluable asset to one Millenia Eizenstrauss, a young necromancer with whom she works alongside unofficially. After taking on a particularly lucrative side-job as a courier for Lady Eizenstrauss, she is unwittingly (and often unwillingly) dragged into the strange noble-woman's odd occupation and becomes as essential to her work as Lady Eizenstrauss herself. Together the two make a potent team in solving supernatural cases that plague the haunted countrysides and decadent cityscapes of Svietsylvania, all with the help of Einen, the ghostly spirit of Millenia's departed brother who is bound to his sister's service.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
