Court session Continues
"Well Mrs. Carter if you have any love or self-respect for yourself, you'll let Mr. Carter go. You can't keep a man who doesn't want you and there's harm in trying to. Mrs. Carter you are a beautiful woman. You're talented. You're successful. You can do better than him. Believe me, but you got to let him go, if you want better for yourself and for your daughter. There is no sense in holding on to him. Let him go. Do you hear me Mrs. Carter?"
*deep down she knew she was right.*as a tear rolled down Beyonce's cheek. "Yes ma'am," she said wiping the tears away.
"Now because I am a fair judge and because I believe in the empowerment and uplifting of women, this is what I will do for you. Seeing that you have invested over a million dollars into Mr. Carter's business I am going to give you half of his company, which means whatever the company profits, you will too. And you have a say so in any final decisions that they decide to make."
Everyone who came in support of Beyonce gasped. "I am also rewarding you 1.5 million dollars, that Mr. Carter will have to pay, due to the emotional and physical abuse you have suffered at the hands of Mr. Carter. You also get the house, if you so desire it."Shawn stood with his mouth hung open. He tapped his lawyer on the arm. "Aye man do something," he said. "They trynna take everything man."Shawn's lawyer was baffled. He could barely get the words out. "Save it, counselor, I've already made my decision," said judge Toler."Mr. Carter, you don't get anything out of this divorce, but the clothes on your back.

The way you treated Mrs. Carter---- Oop, I'm sorry Ms. Knowles, I shouldn't leave you a penny. If you don't put an end to this little cocky, selfish, attitude you have, you're gonna end up loosing a lot more than a house and a couple million dollars. You hear me? The way you treated Ms. Knowles was despicable and, to be honest I'm surprised she stuck it out with you for so long." Judge Toler returned her attention back to Beyonce."And Ms. Knowles, I know you said that you still love Mr. Carter, which is perfectly normal and will probably take some time getting over, but please take this time to focus on yourself girl. Don't let a man stress you out. They aren't worth the trouble." Judge Toler stood up. "Good luck to the both of you on your future endeavors. Shawn I hope I don't have to see you in my court room again. Ms. Knowles, I'll be looking out for your next album. Have a good day. Court is now dismissed."

Primacy Online
Life on Earth was nearly eradicated in World War III, but using alien technology, the Patriarch of the Church of the Resurrection built a new society from the ashes. He created what he called the Constructed Reality MMORPG, Primacy Online, a world so real that the players could not distinguish it from reality. After outlawing wars between the city-states on Earth, he declared that all wars would be fought inside the world of Primacy Online. Thirteen hundred years later, the release of Primacy Online VI: Legacy of Balor signals the beginning of World War IX. Players from Earth's city-states will be locked in cryogenic capsules and play Primacy Online in War Mode. Their achievements in the game will determine the victory rankings of their city-states, but if they die in the game, they will die for real. Patrick Armagh found flaws in the game mechanics of Primacy Online and exploited them to rise to the peak of the game. But when the Church declared he was cheating, he was perma-banned from the game. Now, the Church has declared that Patrick and all the other perma-banned cheaters will be included in a special Church group for World War IX, where they can earn redemption for their sin of cheating. However, Morgan Danan, Speaker of the City of Mann, and the generally acknowledged number one player of Primacy Online, has a deal for Patrick. With her help and his method of cheating, he has the chance to become a virtual god within Primacy Online, but by taking up her offer, he will become an enemy of the Church. Like a significant percentage of Primacy Online players, Patrick suffers from an ultimately fatal, degenerative nervous system disorder. He has less than five years to live. With death staring him in the face and nothing to live for, he accepts Morgan Danan's offer, and once again, enters Primacy Online as Crom Cruach, a disgraced legend. Will Crom Cruach, once again, become a legend, or will he be destroyed by the Church? What secrets has the Church hidden inside the game?

The Foretold: Sun Child (Complete)
As a sixteen year old commoner, your future is bleak. Worse, your appearance sets you apart from others. Your only achievement so far, is befriending the second son of the Lord of the Keep. He has been your only friend for eleven years, initially partner in mischief and later your hunting companion and confidant. Now your friendship is being torn asunder, he has turned eighteen and is being sent away to become a Judge Knight Aspirant. What is to become of you? Before your friend leaves, there is murder and conspiracy! Magic left the land hundreds of years ago, all you have is your bow and hunting skills, nevertheless you must fight to survive and save another to have any hope of a future! Note: The graphic isn't mine; it is a re-imagining of a few separate images, any objections by original artists let me know. N.B. If you are looking for Sexual Content every chapter, or every second, third or fourth chapter this isn't the story for you - the Sexual Content is required for a plot device, not a way of life and the later chapters reflect that - please stop dropping Low Ratings when you feel I haven't met your idea of "fan service". This is finished as much as a multi book vision can be finished. At 750,000 words give or take and very little readership I can only blame myself. I have learnt a lot, possibly forgotten a lot as well! I will probably return to the Chapters at some point - a touch up here and a touch up there. The second book though will probably remain in my head for a very long time, so yes "cliffs" although I hope the characters and their motivations are developed enough that you can have a good guess at the content of Book Two and tell me so I can confirm or deny! This isn't a LITRPG where classes are developed, great foes are defeated by a hero of immense power. This is a story based within (I hope) a very real and consistent culture, that leaves breadcrumbs for the reader to work out what the heck is happening and why. This is a slow burn story as the MC is stumbling around discovering her new place and role. Author's Note (Apr 2021): I dropped the Fantasy Genre for the Mystery Genre, because while the setting mentions magic, is it about past glories and trying to return to them. Whereas the MC from Chapter One doesn't understand her predicament and the range of mysteries she must solve to survive. If I have this wrong PM me and I will change this back.

No Control
"It's funny that you think the choice is up to you babydoll." Delrick's icy tone sends chills through my core. All I can do is back up in an attempt to escape, seemingly running into a wall. Though as rough hands circle their way around my waist I knew it was Dominic that was holding me. "When in reality you have no control at all." My head snaps to the voice belonging to the youngest of the Valentine brothers, Dalton, as he makes his way towards me. Dominic's hand wraps around my throat possessively making me arch my back into him. This gives Delrick clear access to my lips as I look up at him, in which he wastes no time. His lips meet my own hungrily. "Who do you belong to Annalise." Dalton gathers my blonde hair into his hand, tugging making me break my kiss. "Daddies."***Cover made by @brookecastellan10***
