《Snow And Ice》Christmas day
Advertisement
Hawthorn woke to the sounds of excited chatter coming from all the different houses all around. He jumped out of bed and went through to his parents' room. Then all 3 of them went downstairs. Hawthorn pulled down his stocking and looked though the little gifts his father had left him. Lots of chocolate and a few little nick nacks, but his favourite thing in the stocking was a coloured crystal glowing in time with the northern lights. He'd be sure to keep that out of evil's way. Under the tree there were more presents. His mother had a new cook book with summer recipes in it, his father had a do not disturb sign he could hang on his door when he was sleeping, and Hawthorn had a new scarf and matching mittens in his favourite green and red stripes, but this time the words HAWTHORN RULES! were stitched into it.
"Your mother made that herself," he'd said. After a glorious breakfast Hawthorn got dressed into his warmest clothes. A knock came at the door and when they opened it lots of eager faces looked up. Every elf in the village was there. Hawthorn saw Alica and her mother coming over with the dogs.
"It's time, Hawthorn, it's time!" said Jingle Berries, who was jumping up and down with excitement. Everyone was brought their present, many silks and budgies, lots of teddies and dolls and a whole band with new instruments, even a singer with a working microphone. Alica had an ice tiara on her head and Jingle Berries was wearing a new hat which was red with an extra large pom-pom. His mother came over with the reindeer and Holly stepped forwards over to them.
"Let the parade begin!" cried the Snow Queen, and with her Alica and their dogs, each with a new sparkly collar leading. The parade began. Hawthorn and Jingle Berries rode on Holly at the back, just in front of his parents in the sleigh. Everyone came to the Town Square for Hawthorn's favourite part of Christmas. Jingle Berries was beside himself with excitement.

"Do you want to start it?" Hawthorn whispered.
"Yes yes yes yes YES!" he squealed, jumping off Holly's back and grabbing a handful of snow which he threw at Hawthorn. Hawthorn dodged and it hit another elf behind him, who picked up more snow and hurled it at someone else, and soon the annual snowball fight had begun. Alica found her way to them and the two went back to back, tossing and running. Soon everyone was tired and laughing. Everyone went back to their houses for lunch. Alica and Jingle Berries both brought their families to Hawthorn's and they ate while listening to classical Christmas songs. When they were done Alica and her mother froze the streets and everyone came out to ice skate. They skated till it grew dark. At that point they began making their way to Alica's castle, running across the snow, some skiing, some sledding, everyone having fun. Before long they made it across to her house, where the normal grumpy nymphs had prepared a lavish meal for them. They all sat at the big table and ate the traditional dinner, then they went home. Many of the elves from about teenagers to late 40s went carolling. Hawthorn was happy. Today had gone well and everyone had gotten a present. Even Holly had a holly wreath on her stable door now.

8 75The Tooth and Claw Guild - A Shifter LitRPG Story
150 years in the future. Refugees outside one of the last viable cities on Earth. One by one, they are funnelled into a refugee camp outside the city walls, for what looks like a life sentence of hard labor. But when Ricky arrives, he learns that they are offered a lifeline – overnight, they can enter the Dark Framework, a fantasy adventure game, and where the bravest and most cunning have a chance to find a key to the city. If they succeed, they can become a citizen of New Baravia at last. As Ricky starts out on his quest, he quickly finds that he lacks the strength to overcome both the game’s monsters and obstacles. But when a guild of mysterious shapeshifters offer to take him in, he has a chance to work with others at last. If he joins with them, perhaps could they find the key to the city together – but at a cost of the principles that Ricky holds closest to his heart. In this dark fantasy story, which moves between a brutal post-apocalyptic real world and a virtual game world, the only way for Ricky to succeed in his quest may be to let go of his humanity...
8 101World of Alvarra: Rise of the Vampire Lord
Van was born a dhampir with memories of past lives that plague him. If he does not overcome them, he may face a slow descent into insanity. Growing up in a world where the memories of his past lives, clash with the truth of this strange new world. A world where women outnumber men to a large margin and are in control. Filled with magic, ki, aura, and creatures from other dimensions trying to break into his world to devour it. Will Van survive and thrive and make sense of it all? This is a story where I’m hoping to take some things and put them on its head. Everyone has heard of isekai about now, but has anyone ever really contemplated what it would be like to have voices, visions, or archaic ideas and views swim around a person's mind? We also hear about how the mc’s always gets the harem. But what if that's because there are more women than men and women are somewhat biologically different then the women we know from our world. Imagine a society where anyone can become strong and since there are more women than men, there are more stronger women than stronger men and now apply medieval history and a view that men are lower than women because the goddess made women in her image. And what if, the mc isn’t the only one with memories of past lives, and he meets some people who have been driven insane because of it? This is my first time writing a book and showing it to potential thousands of people. I won’t promise that my work will be good right off the bat. But I'm hoping that, with enough constructive criticism, I can provide an interesting read for all comers and improve to match and exceed the expectations put on me. The image used above does not belong to me. Warning! There is blood, gore, sex, and rape!(not anymore...) I may not be a good writer yet, but I will try to give a more realistic and authentic view of this world. This world and what you know of it will be of the view of the mc. So if something does not make sense to you, it probably does not to the mc ethier. Finally. For the sex or smut, scenes. I will hide them under spoiler. But you should not have to worry about it until somewhere around chapter nineteen or twenty, so if you don’t want to continue reading a book with sex, stop there. I will also be putting an NSFW sign in the chapter heading to warn people ahead of time. (all sex scenes will now be moved to my Patreon and scribblehub.) Thank you for reading and please help me become the writer I am hoping to be as well as the writer you all deserve to read from.
