《Gate keeper》Chapter 34 resentment and a tired family
Advertisement
"Jewel were in a new era. In this world without our sisters to hound us no one can stop us." (Davis)
"Brother we as Azuals should keep to our selves. Well aside from mother's teaching that we should treat the world fairly if we want them to treat us better plus who says they can stop your insane plan for world conquest. Well if Miyabi was here she'd have locked you up." (Jewel)
"My dear twin brother what is there to fear. Our aunt Ling isn't here to reign us in. No Reina pulling the reins of the family to make us younger ones her slaves to the rules of society. Plus I had done the summoning and called a insane chaos beast here. We'll control her then have the world for ourselves." (Davis)
"Wait a moment here my dear brother." (Saya)
Davis winced as he fixed his blond bangs as he was hit on the head. Saya Azual his older sister the 28th eldest of the Azual. She hit her brother again on the head without warning. Not much was known about her in history but even her younger brothers and sisters respects her when she talks.
"Did I hear world domination from this foul mouth." (Saya)
Her hand squeezed his two cheeks then she pinched him.
"No ma'am. I am innocent in this. It was all Davis plan." (Jewel)
Davis blinked at his brother as if to say why the heck did you rat me out once she comes into the room. His brother mouthed I don't want to be skinned alive literally. His face pales as if he had a flash back to George their older brother who was a prankster in the family. He pissed off all his sisters. So much so that they and all their brothers actually tried to kill this wolf demon. Yet the worst yet the one who did the most damage in torturing was Saya.
"Please sister I was just kidding." (Davis)
(He's lying but yea it's to save his own skin.)

"Good cause if it's cause your stupid mortal life here and you can't even take a hit from what's in front of you then your a wimp. Remember us Azuals do much more than your personal agenda. Rea, Reina, Miyabi, Sera and Isabella saw the bigger picture of things. That reminds me I'm still looking for Sera and the rest. Oh and I found Rachel's reincarnation glad to know she's not you know spacing out and drawing future scenes or events all over the time line. She's actually normal in this one. Also if I so much as see you mess with others you know what I'll do to you." (Saya)
Davis nodded frighten as she let go of him and walked out of his tiny apartment. His sister was just there to check in on her two younger brothers. The three of them had been reincarnated as siblings again in this life. The two of them being older than her but they felt like she was still the older one. With the way things was even Davis was annoyed. He threw his vase on the ground in anger.
"Did you fucking see that Jewel she has no freaking self respect towards us. Even in this life, why the heck does mother give her the company. Is it cause this matriarchy system? Does she not get that as the first born it should be us that gets the company. Yet mother loves her and dote on her more. She could have anything she wanted. Yet she's using that resource to look for our past. Why the fuck does it go to her." (Davis)
"Brother she meant no harm to us. She only wants to check in on our health if we're ok." (Jewel)
"Yet mother trains her to run the company and looks at us in disdain. Can you understand it, she looks at us in disappointment every time during family gatherings. And yet the only thing we have is this stupid three room apartment with one living room and a kitchen. Saya has a whole mansion and 15 other resorts at her disposal. Do you call this fair." (Davis)

"Look she earned those by her own hands with her own money. Davis don't do this, this isn't you. This is your mortal life influencing you." (Jewel)
"What she has today is supposed to be my birthrights." (Davis)
"Calm down please Davis as she said this isn't you. She's actually trying to get the family we use to have all together. You know to be whole again. Helping others that's what our family does. Not this whole world domination thing you want now. This isn't the you I once knew, this is you after getting lost in mortal planet here. In riches. Brother it's ruining you." (Jewel)
"Are you, my own twin saying Saya is right." (Davis)
"Brother maybe, just a maybe you need a break. You seem paranoid more so since when we were 14 years old. Your now 32 now. So am I. Even am drained at your jealousy of Saya shining so brilliantly in front of you. Maybe you just need time alone. I'll be out with a few friends of mine. Okay, think about it carefully you don't need to be at the top. Just let nature run it's course not this anger and other emotions instead of your rational thinking." (Jewel)
"So even you think I'm beyond help. Is that it my twin, you've already given up on me." (Davis)
"Look I'm tired. You've been at this since 14. Sister is only 8 years younger than us. It's been...18 years even I've been run dried by this. Let us pull the breaks while the situation is salvageable brother. If our other mother saw you now she'd be disappointed. As a royal princess of the Isula family of pure angel. Brother I'm a demon your a pure angel. Don't ruin your blood that mother is so proud of." (Jewel)
Jewel grabbed his jacket and went to the door steps before looking at the apartment that would put others to shame with the expensive furnitures. He shook his head disappointed as he went through the doors. His brother whom he used to know had disappointed him again and again. Over the years he did everything to sabotage Saya. 18 years of resentment, even he was tired of his twin even if they lived in the same apartment.
His hand went to the pocket of his black leather jacket. But he stopped short when he saw his sister standing by her car waiting for him. Jewel's eyes narrowed to the brown haired girl with her hands on her phone as she was texting but her eyes looked up at him. Sympathy seemed to run through her. She gestured to her red Lamborghini for him to take a ride with her.
"Happy 24th birthday. Though sorry Davis isn't exactly....sorry for everything Saya." (Jewel)
"Even in tired of assassination attempts he's making. I haven't told you right. Auntie Ling found me when I was 8 years old. When the first attempt happened. She's been keeping me safe. Even if her emotions don't show often she at least cares. I'm worried about Davis sure but more like I'm wore the short end of the stick. I'm tired of it all. Jewel mother (our mortal) wants me to run the company. This us... I just can't be his sister if he's going to keep doing this. He doesn't even look at me or see me as me. He's trying to kill me." (Saya)
Jewel sat silently in the car on the drive. Davis tossed his picture of him and his twin during a meeting with their birth mother. The case broke as the glass flung all over the floor.
"Even my one twin betrays my expectations to help me rid the world of that hell spawn woman." (Davis)

Tower of Somnus
When humanity first encountered alien life, we were judged and found wanting. The Galactic Consensus interviewed our leaders and subjected us to a battery of psychological tests to determine our progress as a society. They found us to be selfish, wasteful, impulsive, and boorish neighbors. Earth was blockaded and our collective encounter with our extrasolar neighbors rapidly faded from memory. All they left behind was a hypercomm relay and a handful of subscriptions to a massively multiplayer game that participants played in their sleep. The Consensus said that it would let us interact with our neighbors in a controlled setting. That it would teach us to be better members of the galactic community. The megacorporations that controlled Earth ignored the game until they learned that the powers earned from clearing dungeons were just as real when day broke. Magic, supernatural abilities and rumors exploded from nothing and a subscription to The Tower of Somnus became a status symbol. Katherine ‘Kat’ Debs doesn’t have much, but it could be worse. Born in an arcology, she was assigned a job in the megacorporation that raised her almost as soon as she could work. Despite the stability of her corporate life, she wanted something more. A chance to claw her way up the rigid social and financial ladder to make something of herself. A chance that wouldn’t come naturally to someone as familiar with dark alleyways and the glint of steel as she was with office work and corporate niceties.Book One is up on Kindle Unlimited as of 7/6/22 - https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B2X3L8H5

Urban Divinity
He slowly backs up until his back is against the wall like my own, "You're..my neighbor?" He points to my door and I nod my head quickly. He hums softly, "You been here a while?" He asks and I nod my head once again. He chuckles, "Ya head hurt?" I nod again but stop as he laughs softly, "I-I mean.. no.. it doesn't." My cheeks burn red as I look at my shoes, "I-It doesn't hurt.." I repeat like a dummy and listen to him clear his throat, "So do you actually live there or was it bull?" He nods to my door and I play with my fingers, "Yeah.. I do.." I feel his eyes watch me and I quickly stop. "You live with your boyfriend or do you like sweatshirts that reach your knees?" He teased, making a giggle slip past my lips. I look away to the floor again, "I-I like big shirts... a lot." I mumble softly and he nods his head, "Hol' up." He puts his box down before walking over to one of the grey bins. I nosily watch as he pulls out a big grey sweatshirt, "Here." He holds it out for me to take and I stare at him with wide eyes, "F-For me?" I hesitantly grab the soft fabric as he chuckles, "Nah for ya mom." I puff my cheeks a little and give him a small glare, "Hush." He leans back against the wall and shakes his head, "It's cold out. You should put it on." ____________________________She was a shy girl from the city with no spine and a list of problems so long that it could touch the floor and roll off her shoes.
