《Jesus X Reader》✧Chapter One✧
Advertisement
It has been 2 hours, 14 minutes, and 26, 27, 28, 29- you're getting sidetracked, anyway, that's how long it's been since you last cried. Usually, you don't cry that much in a day, okay lets be honest, yeah you do. You have been single your entire life and at this point, it's started to have an impact on your self esteem. The fact that no one has ever wanted to date you is really hitting you right in the feels. You had tried everything you could possibly think of in order to get a boyfriend. You had used many different dating apps, you had tried asking out all of your friends' exes, you had tried asking out all of your friends, you had tried soliciting random men on the street, you had even tried humping deer in the woods in hopes that someone would find it attractive. Yet, for some reason, no one has ever loved you.
It was a cold February day as you walked down the busy streets of New York City. You were doing your best not to cry as you saw couple after couple snuggling and kissing. There was no reason for so many people to be rubbing their relationships in your face. It was just unfair! You walked past a man in some baggy clothes, chains, long brown hair, a long brown beard. You just brushed him off. That was until he started glowing. Like, literally glowing. You turned around and approached the man. No one else seemed to notice that this guy was LEGITIMATELY GLOWING.
You thought you had recognised the man, and before you could get your thoughts under control, you blurted out, "Jesus?"
"I don't really go by that name no more, dawg, I go by lil' jeezy now."
"Lil' Jeezy?" You asked, obviously confused. I mean, you had every right to be. You just met THE Jesus Christ and he was going by a weird rapper name now???

"Yee Yee, Bruh. You got a problem wit dat?" He spoke... strangely. Definitely not like he was 2052 years old. You wondered why he was there in the first place. Wasn't he supposed to like, be in heaven or something?
"Oh! Uh, n-no," you stuttered a bit. I mean who could blame you? You were literally speaking to jesus. "Why are you here on earth instead of in heaven?"
"Oh yeah, my pops sent me here to 'restore peace and order within the people and spread his word' or whatevs, but I think it's so much more fun to do the things I love. Like I have recently discovered that I love rapping and BDSM."
Okay. That was probably way too much information, but you couldn't just stay mad at Jesus, could you? "That sounds great. I was wondering if maybe I could help you on your mission for the church?" Jesus got on his knees and started worshipping you. "What are you doing?" You asked.
"I'm thanking you. I really need someone to help me with some stuff."

He has quite a long way to go in fact. Let's give him a little nudge, shall we? With chance, something might happen. Life can be unpredictable.

Maybe a bit of both. The girl will fight against her own mind, her prison, and her fate. Who imprisoned her and why? But maybe she has imagined everything. She is mad after all. To save someone dear, the boy fights hunger and city guards. Sometimes pigeons as well. Well, this city is cracked anyway. Cover art by Paul Lerouvillois.

8 242Patchwork System
Notification (cannot be ignored): For being the first being to kill another of its own species after Sublimation, Lyam Aldren is awarded the Title of Cain’s Successor. Let all fear the Kinslayer!!! Lyam Aldren, killer for hire, was just going about his business when he suddenly received a notification from something called the System. Apparently, the entirety of Earth, its denizens and its matter were transported into the world of the System, planted in 'patches' all throughout the infinite world. The world of the Patchwork System is one of challenges, where life is cheap, power is king, and Classes and levels are a thing. In a brutal world, there is perhaps room for a killer with bloodstained hands to find his own way, free of his past. However, his Title and his inherent nature plague him, his fragmented personality laid bare to those with the eyes to see, and if he doesn't become powerful enough to defeat or escape those who would use or destroy him, he will quickly be devoured by the merciless world created by the System. Compared to my previous work, this is a more 'classic' litrpg setup, with clear (if somewhat complex) progression through levels and skill gains, with a 'system apocalypse' setup. Unlike most system apocalypse story protagonists, Lyam is neither a leader nor is he particularly interested in saving his fellow Earthlings. This is a story of a man who is both endangered and set free by the destruction of his old world, as he finds both power, new discoveries, and adventure in a place where his past matters not at all and power is the only language most speak. Later in the story, there will be harem elements, but the first volume is dedicated to Lyam's first months in the System. For those who are more interested in the Heirs of the Hooded King, I am putting it on hiatus as I rework the setting and future story developments a bit.

8 186Mr. CEO's Fiery Nanny
I beg to differ that.", I sassed and got out of his grip ready to move out of the room when he pulled me by my elbow and the next second I was pushed on the visitor's chair.He trapped me completely by keeping his palms on the arms of the chair. "I tried to tell you patiently.", I scoffed at his words. Patience and he don't go in a single sentence. He gripped my chin making me look into his eyes."Now listen carefully Miss, I want you for my niece as her babysitter. Tell me how much you'll take and we can seal the deal."This time it was me who blinked once, twice and thrice."But I don't want to work for you." See the reason was absolutely clear. I liked the kid since the moment I met her but I hated this man from the moment I gazed into his eyes. "How much?"I frowned."You really think your money can make everyone dance on your tips?""1200 dollars a week."I rolled my eyes making him lean towards me." 1500?""Make it 15000 and still I won't work for you.", I retorted and pushed him. I walked to the door and gave him one glance."Next time when you talk to me, make sure you keep all your richness aside. That's one thing that I never want to see you again, you self-centred CEO.""We shall see."...Brave but lonely.Passionate but sensitive.That's Arielle Summers. For everyone, Money, Assets and happiness may be supreme but to her, self-respect is prime.Cold and reckless.Commanding and ruthless.That was Nicolas Arnold. He only cared for his niece, his Mama and his friends.Love life didn't exist until-she came into the picture. *No Toxic Relationship. No ex-crush/lover/fiance/wife. The male lead is the uncle of the child in this book, he's not a manwhore. There are no trust issues. *Impressive Ranking: #8 in love among 2.31M on 09/04/22©2021 ankitawrites_XxCC: @YT_BookAwards_Covers
