woke up to a cold breeze coming from my open window. I know that I haven't opened it ever since it started getting cold, so that can only mean that I've got another letter. Or that someone was in my room, someone that isn't him. I took the dahlia that was on top of the flower, as usual, and opened the royal 'AT' seal.
'Dearest Dahlia,
I hope you're enjoying your life without me. I have been quite lonely around the castle- it's quite odd how it seems even lonelier after I've found you. It's already fall, the weather has been getting colder and colder, so I've sent you this winter jacket and a few sweaters so you wouldn't be so cold. I hope you'll wear them and get over your pride for your own health. But every time it gets colder, I get happier because I know that I'm one step closer to you. On your 18th Birthday, I will have to take you home. I am sorry that I will be doing so, but it truly is hell living without you.
The one you must hate,
Alexander

If he cares about me being alive and healthy, why did he leave the fricking window wide open?
Jackass.
I got up and closed the window, but not before glaring into the woods.
What? Maybe he's in there somewhere.
Creep.
My room always smells like his perfume when I get another letter. He probably sprays perfume on the way out! I always smell like expensive male perfume when I wake up from my sleep because of him.
At least he doesn't pee on me. I heard that that's what some creepy werewolves do when they find their mates and they don't live together.

Ew, ew, ew, EW! He's not peeing on me anytime soon!
The drunk me from the ball would be screaming 'You aren't peeing on me anytime soon!' through the window, like some maniac.
Drunk me is a maniac.
I call her Patricia.
The problem is that the only true difference between Patricia and I is that Patricia voices out my thoughts, whereas I choose to keep them to myself.
I looked back at the window and glared out in the woods some more, before snuggling into the now cold bed.
I kinda like his scent.

8 132Trouble!
In a distant world ruled by Magic, Gods, Demons, Beasts and Man, war has ravaged the land and made its people suffer. The Archonian Council comprised of the leaders of the various races decided that enough was enough and the war had to stop or at the very least, continue elsewhere. In the middle of another aimless debate, Rafflesia, Chief Warlock of the Beast Race proposed this idea: “Why don't we create another world? Let's let the idiots go all out and settle this endless war there?†And because of that unprecedented notion, the Gods, Demons, Beast Race and Man worked together to create the (planet) world Arthunium, a magical world that could withstand the full brunt of the war. A thousand years after the Golden Age War, our story begins… (Warning: This novel offers depictions of: – Gore – Torture – Mature and Suggestive Themes The novel is therefore classified by most standards of morality as something no one should read.

8 188Menastel's Guide to World Travel
World travel is a tragic mess. It is outlined by misunderstanding and a blindness to risk. Few are aware of the danger and fewer are equipped to face it.

Sidrick and his eldest sister Layla find themselves on Linea, a world ruled by monsters the size of small cities and the men that can match them. To rebuild their House and survive in their new home, they'll need to get much, much stronger.

What seperates beasts from men isn't the language we speak or any such drivel taught to us in school. It isn't the way we walk or our intelligence that sets us apart. Some would have you believe that it is our ability to think and reason that makes us fundamentally different from the creatures that inhabit the world. That way of thinking, my friends, is entirely wrong. What seperates us from them and them from each other, is simply the skin that we all wear

Yoongi doesn't have much faith in finding a romantic partner. His track record with relationships has not been good. It's gotten to the point that he feels very insecure, thinks there must be something wrong with him that pushes people away, and believes he'll be better off alone. Yoongi's inner walls of rude behavior and pretend lack of emotion can only be taken down by the right kind of people. When he meets Hoseok on a blind date, he's skeptical of why someone so cheerful can accept him. Slowly but surely, Hoseok breaks down Yoongi's walls, only to reveal that he has a protective shell of his own.Soft Sub Top YoongiSoft Dom Bottom HoseokCover made by @airconditionrBest Ranks#1 in Yoonseok (October 6, 2020)(October 19, 2022)
