Jane pov...
Riley and I talk for hours to catch up, it reminds me of when we were 18 and would stay up all night talking and watching movies.
We finish talking and its late so we order in pizza and decide to have a marathon of the Final Destination movies.
When we finish its 7am and Riley has to work so I drive her to her place and drop her off and we will met up again soon.
I go home and tidy up and then watch recordings of the Red Sox games. I have a break for lunch and Riley text me asking if I wanted to go to a club with her tonight, I say yes.
After Riley finishes work at 5 we get ready and go out to a club where we dance, sing to the music and drink all night till the club shuts at 3am when we catch a taxi and Riley gets dropped off at her house and I go to my place.
I get home and go straight to bed and fall asleep instantly. I am woken up by my phone going off, I look at the time it's 10am. I answer the phone without looking at caller ID. It's Cavanaugh and he tells me "I know I said to have time off but Hoyt is back as the scene looks like his work so I want you to come in".
I say "yes sir I will be there in under an hour".
I get up and my head hurts so much, I go straight to the bathroom and throw up, I haven't drunk that much in a while.
I have a quick shower and get ready, I finish my makeup and decide to put sunglasses on so work doesn't know I am hungover, it's not good to be especially seeing that this case is Hoyt.

The last time I dealt with Hoyt I shot his hands so he matched mine but I regret not killing him, he has killed so many people and continues to kill making it dangerous as I am one of his main targets.
I buy a coffee on the way to work and head straight to my desk and sit down. My head still hurts like hell but at least I'm not going to be sick anymore.
Korsak and Frost walk over to me and Frost says "you look like shit"
I say "thanks"
He smile and Korsak says "Hoyt is back with an accomplice and he has escaped from prison within the last hour" he paused and then says "are you hungover?"
I say "yeah reliving old times isn't the smartest idea"
Frost says "I want to know more about this later but we need to work on Hoyt first"
I say "okay what do we have"
Korsak says "a Mike Smeek was tied up and slit at the throat, all the sign of Hoyt and the wife Danielle is missing and there is signs that she was assaulted"
Frost interrupts and says "Maura just text, she has something"
Korsak says "Jane you go and tell us what she has"
I nod and walk down to the morgue and go over to Maura. She says "you can take off your glasses you know"
I take them off and she says "you're hungover, how much did you drink last night?"
I shrug and say "I lost count after the first few hours"
She says "what were you doing last night?"
I say "I went out to a club with an old friend from sometime after 5pm till it closed at 3am"
She laughs and says "you probably feel really bad right now"

I nod and say "I do so I want to figure this out as soon as possible, what do you have?"
She says "we got a fingerprint match behind his ear to a Mark Gilbert, he wasn't trained as well so he might make mistakes. There are some fibres we found and they are being tested right now. And there was one other thing, I found a piece of paper of you outside some house in a taxi"
I ask "can I see the photo?"
She nods and hands me an evidence bag and I look at the photo and say "this was taken this morning"
I quickly take out my phone and call Riley, she answers after a few rings and I say "can you come meet me at my work now?"
She says "yeah, I didn't think you were working though"
I say "I am, I will explain when you get here please get here soon"
She says "I'll be there in a few minutes"
I say "ok I will meet you at the door"
I hang up the phone and say "thanks Maura, I have to go"
She nods and I walk out and head to the door to meet Riley who gets there just after I do.

Chimera
Eleanor meant the world to Titus. So when an opportunity to bring her murderer to justice appears, Titus jumps on the chance. His quest, however, would mean traversing the dangerous world of Nivandor, a land infested with monsters, night hunters, and corrupt kings–nothing he and his lord, Lady Priscilla, couldn't handle. Their plans change, however, when both of them are dragged into a nightmare realm, a dimension filled with strange and powerful terrors unlike any they've ever faced. Titus's skill as a kinetic mage is put to the ultimate test as he must work with his lord to fight off the increasingly dangerous monsters that hunt them as they hunt down the three remaining Seraph lords sustaining the Nightmare. For only when the final Seraph lord is slain will the Nightmare truly end. --- Happy Holidays! I tried to get a chapter out this month, but there was just too much stuff to do and I got sick. There will also be more stuff to do come the month of December to the point that I don't think I will have a chance to finish the current story arc on a strong note. So, as of today, I will be going on hiatus until the holidays are over. I will hopefully return with the last few chapters of book 2 as well as the DLC chapters to help clarify Titus and Priscilla's powers as well as a look into their lives before the story gets crazy (maybe 6-7 chapters). These chapters are planned to take place in the day between Chapter 1.4 & Chapter 1.5, detailing the day they had before going to Nivandor. How the DLC chapters will be titled is to be decided. The DLC chapters will be posted here free as usual. Really excited to get a break so I can catch up on chapters. Even more excited to be able to start book 3 once the current story arc is finished. Warmly, Daniel --- Disclamer: This story is not a finished product and will be undergoing changes, sometimes significant changes, as the story develops. Think of it as an early access story where nothing is fully set in stone. If I change a part of the story that you really love, I'm sorry, but changing one part of the story will affect the other parts I try to avoid major changes, especially in older chapters, but for the newer ones there will probably be more fine tuning. As for anyone invested in the story who is not happy with the way the story is going, feel free to DM me so I can get feedback. I want to know how you guys feel about the story, what changes I can make, at what point in the story I may have lost you. But until I get specific feedback, I won't know what changes might need to be made. There are about 14 chapters left for Part 2 of Chimera, give or take. I don't have a time frame for when they will be up but know I am chipping away at the chapters as I can. Warm Regards, Daniel --- Cover art credit goes to Brosedesignz, who has an awesome selection of both premade and custom book covers at great prices on her website.

Fantasy World Adventures
He spent a long time relaxing. "I actually came to this world through the game" Shenhuo "? Where is this mainland Lasvia? Does this person have the same name as me?" Nishizawa's idea is very surprising. Not long ago, he also challenged the world ’s newest leader, the demon lord, with members of the guild in the "Blaze". Their mastery of human strategy, together with Nize, the first legal god in all activities, eventually grinded foreign monarchs into residual blood. However, the power of aliens exceeds their imagination. When the aliens were about to die, almost everyone got lost in a few seconds. In the end, only Nishizawa survived. At the time, Nishizawa and the alien monarchs were bloody ruins. In fact, Nishizawa still wanted to defeat the alien monarch, but I do n’t know what happened. The world collapsed suddenly, as if the end of the world had come, and then he came here. At first, he thought the system was damaged, but he didn't expect to break into the game world.

Patchwork 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.
