《His Perfect Doll》Chapter 9
Advertisement
I awoke to the loud grumbling in my stomach. I looked up and saw that I wasn't with Harper anymore.
I was in the cold and dark basement.
My breathing started to speed up. My chest felt tight. And then it felt like I couldn't breathe. I started crying.
"Peter!" I screamed. I scooted against a wall and started to rock myself.
"Peter, please!"
Images of Harper's limp body started running through my mind. The dark blood that oozed out of her mouth like syrup was burned into my memory.
"Peter, I can't breathe!" I gasped. I got on all fours and stared at the ground. All I could see was Harper's carved in smile. It was like her face was on the ground, looking at me.
I curled up and stared at the darkness. Harper's fake smile was still flashing everywhere.
"It should have been me, it should have been me, it should have been me."
"Daisy, it's me!" A voice said. It sounded so distant.
Someone grabbed my face and looked at me. They sat me up. I was greeted by a pair of icy blue eyes. My vision started to become blurry.
And I only had one thought it mind: Was I finally going to die?
I felt a relief wash over me as I thumped to the ground. I saw Harper's normal face looking at me now. I smiled as my vision went black.
***
My eyes popped open. I examined the room and cried out when I realized I wasn't dead. I was in Peter's room.
I sobbed and screamed. I was so mad. So fucking mad. I just wanted to die.
"Daisy, dear, is that you?!" Peter called.
"No, I'm a fucking whale, you bitch!" I screamed.
Peter ran into the room. "Peter, can you kill me?" I asked. Peter's eyes widened in surprise. He quickly shook his head.

"I love you too much, and that's why I got you another present!" He exclaimed. I felt dread as I imagined Harper.
Peter picked me up and carried me into the living room. On the couch was a scared person. And not just any person. It was my other friend, Dove.
I ran to her and hugged her. She was shaking and crying.
I always found it funny how her name was Dove. She had almost white hair that was long and sleek. Her eyes were a light brown and she had a small frame. She looked just like a dove.
"Does he have Harper too?" She whispered.
"Kind of."
"What?"
"She's dead."
I gave Dove a broken smile. A sad and depressing smile. A smile that said I want to die and I'm sorry that you are here.
She sobbed. "Oh, God!" She screamed. I shushed her and held her close to me.
"You are in charge of her unless I say otherwise," Peter said and walked away.
"I'll get you out of here," I said. "I will try with everything inside of me to get you free."
She continued to sob. "I thought you were dead!" She cried. "I thought you were both 6 feet under! But now, only Harper is dead!"
I held her as she cried. I heard her sobs slowly becoming quieter. "Go to sleep," I said. Dove's breathing got quiet and slow.
I heard the shower running and a thought raced through my mind. I waited until I knew Dove was asleep.
I stood up and laid Dove's head on a pillow. I slowly creeped towards the kitchen and got a knife, walking to the bathroom.
I opened the door quietly and placed the knife down on the sink. I stripped myself of clothing and got into the shower. Peter's naked body was in front of me.

"Wow, I thought you hated me because of Harper," he said. I smiled and tried not to let the hatred show through. He slowly back me up against the show wall, his hands on my hips.
I kissed him and snaked an arm around his neck. I opened my eyes and made sure Peter's eyes were still closed.
I reached my hand out of the shower and felt for the knife. I found it and wrapped my fingers around the handle.
I swung the knife at Peter. His loud screams of anger and pain hurt my ears. The knife was lodged in his shoulder. He gripped it and shouted.
I scrambled out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my waist. I slammed the door behind me and ran towards the living room. I quickly woke up Dove and dragged her to the last bedroom in the hall. I shut the door and then checked to make sure that all of the other doors to everything else was shut. If all of the doors were shut, it would take longer for him to find us.
I ran to Dove's room and entered the room. I locked it and started to push everything against it. I held one hand over Dove's mouth and one over mine.
"Daisy, come out!" Peter called in a sing song voice. I started to cry silently.
Peter started opening all the doors, kicking them open violently. The sound slowly started to get closer and closer to our hiding spot. Peter kicked open the door beside us and Dove let out a sharp cry.
I froze and held my hand tighter on her mouth. I stared at the door with fear. I felt paralyzed.
"I found you," he chuckled. It was silent until Peter started kick the door. Dove screamed.
The fear was overwhelming. I was more scared than I had ever been.
The door started to open as Peter banged against it. And then finally, it popped open all the way.
Peter stood in the doorway with a crazed look in his eyes. He stormed over to me and grabbed me by the hair, dragging me.
"Daisy!" Dove screamed. I tried to reach for her but it was too late, Peter had already dragged me out of the room.
I started to get the same feeling from the dark room. My vision got spotty and I felt my eyes closing. And then the ringing in my ears wouldn't stop.
I couldn't remember anything after that.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

Elania, Arachne in a different world
Does have GL subplot later on. Warning: Since some people do not seem to get the slice of life idea, this story is SLOW. There is action and I intend to write more of it but don't come here expecting it to be the focus 24/7. A young woman from Earth wakes up in a cave, disoriented, confused, amnesic and with her lower body replaced by that of a giant spider. She has no idea what she stumbled into and all the extra sensations were definitely not helping. "Did I get reincarnated into a fantasy world?" She's not quite sure. But, the goblin, the troll and (soon enough) the hot elf all suggest "yes." As much as it creeps her out, her new body is powerful and flexible in some very interesting 'spidery' ways as she slowly learns to live with it. Combined with what modern knowledge she can still remember, the newly christened Elania soon finds herself building a new life as an adventurer among the elves. Who knows what awaits her? Maybe, just maybe, she might even find happiness along the way. There will be a fair amount of errors in writing up until chapter 43 (where I got a proper proofreader/editor to help me out.) Chapters 1-20 or so will at some point receive partial rewriting because I don't quite like the flow and feel there are some parts that don't make as much sense as they should. Please don't suggest edits for chapters up until 43, anything after that, feel free to in case we missed anything. Find me on discord at : https://discord.gg/TqFjdv8uaE
