Waking up at noon I looked over seeing Marlon sitting up in his bed shirtless . "Babbeeee." I whined, climbing on top of him . "Mama moveee." He groaned back tryna see the tv still , he wrapped his arms around me so he could finish playing the game . My stomach started to toss &' turn I could feel myself getting sick, I tried to control it because I didn't want to move off Marlon . He pulled me back &' looked me into my eyes . "You straight ?" Mar asked, I just nodded . "Zaylin if you throw up on m-"
As soon as he spoke I leaned over throwing up nothing but stomach acid which made my stomach hurt even more . I heard him smack his lips &' pause the game lifting me &' bringing me to the bathroom, he pulled his sweater from over my head starting the shower . "Thank you." I mumbled climbing in.
"You good baby." He responded, turning the water to my liking . He handed me my toothbrush, I quickly added toothpaste &' started brushing my teeth I gagged by going back to far making him laugh .
"You know you can't go back that far you better chill out." I just laughed back at him before washing my body &' getting out . I dried off &' added lotion &' perfume still wrapped in my towel Marlon hovered over me . "&' Whhhaatt?" I asked as he stared.
"Drop yo towel." He firmly said , i rolled my eyes lifting my arms letting it drop to the floor revealing my belly , I was just getting bigger by the day .
I would've never thought I'd get pregnant this soon , especially by Marlon , we hated eachother growing up like literally. Now we're inseparable &' I really love this dude . "So is it a lil nigga me , or a lil baby you?" He asked breaking me out my thoughts . I shrugged still admiring my belly . "I'm thinking a boy, look how low he sits . I really don't want a girl though." I confessed finally looking away &' leaving the bathroom with Marlon right behind me. I picked out a pink spaghetti strapped dress before sliding it on . "Is Mari here?" I asked me , unwrapping my hair .

"Naw i think she started back working today ." He answered, putting my necklace on for me . I thanked him before walking to his closet, going to my side &' climbing on top of boxes to reach my shoes . I could've just asked him for help but I got this whole little "I can do bad all by myself" thing going on . Grabbing the slides I wanted I tried climbing down missing a box &' falling to the ground . I tried shielding my stomach as I fell
Marlon damn near had a heart attack .
"Bro fuck is you doin ?" He asked picking me up seating me on the bed . He pulled my dress up to look for any cuts or bruises, he found one forming right upon my belly button he sighed shaking his head at me, I knew I was never hearing the end of this.
"Zaylin ask for sum help bro , I was right behind you." He semi yelled making my eyes water up .
"I ain't tryna lose no baby before it even get here, you fuckin my head up fr ion even want you to move ." He yelled some more &' by this time my eyes were pouring with tears . "Stop cryin mama, ain't nobody mad at you." He added sitting me up .
"Dis my first go round for a child Marlon, I'm so used to just living for me I forget sometimes I got another life to care about." I rubbed the sore spot.
"&' Dis my first go round with my own , I got you . I'm living for all three of us . You just gotta be more careful mama. Gimme kiss." He confirmed to me leaning down pecking my lips a couple times . I smiled at how loving he got, it was like he was so hood to everybody else but I got to see that soft spot nobody else did &' i did indeed love it. I felt so cared about , Mar made sure I was protected if anything . I love how he turned his Daddy on, it was too attractive.

"You ain't got no car?" He asked off topic , I smacked my lips &' rolled my eyes . "Marlon, you know ion got no car." I said back, I never had to buy a car . At home I always used my parents &' Mari was basically my Uber without the gas money . &' when Marlon &' I got closer I literally never needed a ride .
"You got shit to do?" He asked again , I nodded
"I lowkey do , I wanna go get my belly checked out because that was a fall . But I wanna get baby stuff &' allat cause I ain't bought not a bottle." I told him using the edge control toothbrush & swiping my edges down . "Ight, Drop me off at da trap den do what you got too." He said making me smack my lips, "Tae can take you." I told him back I hated driving to the trap it just gave me bad vibes .
"Ain't tell Tae, I just told you ." He said back getting smart . "Okay well I said what I said." I told him before getting gently snatched up by my throat.
"I told you bout yo mouth Zaylin, ion give no fucks bout what you said." Marlon said back making me get aroused . My back facing his front I pushed up on him slightly, feeling his dick grow in his sweats .
"You want dis?" He asked me , I nodded looking up at him . "Use yo words mama. You want dis or what?" He asked again gripping my neck a little tighter &' pushing up on me . "Yesss." I whined as he laid me back on the bed .
Sitting at the red light , I grabbed my phone texting A'Mariell letting her know I was outside .
I found a parking spot &' cut my car off walking in the shop , seeing Mari &' some lame ass nigga laughing in eachother faces . I quickly interrupted allat shit . "Get you sum business." I told the nigga , he sized me up before smacking his lips. "Ummm anyywayss Chile." He waved me off , realizing he was gay I just laughed at myself . "My bad folk." I explained sitting A'Mariell's food down at her station . I pecked her lips, as she smiled at me I wiped the smudged lipgloss off her lip .
"What time you coming home?" I asked her, she shrugged . "I think I'm done . I'm sleepy fr I got up here so early man." She complained . "Come on den, Let's go watch movies or sum , I'm ready to lay up under you." I whispered in the crook of her neck .
After clocking out &' everything else , I helped her get into the house . Instead of Marlons we been at my house more, it feels good having her here .

Touch O' Luck (The Old Realms)
A young provincial thief of no particular renown has his life of crime changed in a day. He ‘stumbles’ upon a huge pile of gold for starters and soon after a dead man carrying a letter of 'royal' interest. Literally. While at it he ‘earns’ a title of sorts, along the promise of a life out of the gutter. Before he can properly appreciate the dramatic turn of his fortunes, he’s drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that threatens to embroil two continents in a devastating war. The whole affair seems to cry out for a gallant hero of old, or failing that a cunning diplomat, but he’s neither. Perhaps a lying scoundrel, which our lad definitely is, would have to suffice. He does ‘acquire’ a dagger that knows a dead language after all and that must count for something. The Old Realms series: Touch O' Luck (Finished) Lure O' War (Ongoing) Wings O' Fate First chapters will be uploaded immediately. After that there will be updates every 3-5 days. Cover artwork by @IntheBlackveil All tags are relevant but most chapters are not too extreme. Fair warning dear reader, this is an 'unfiltered' story, sometimes sweet, others bitter, touching some heavy subjects or problems, like crime, war, betrayal, pride, politics, revenge etc set in a Epic Fantasy backdrop with shades of Grimdark. In its heart of hearts though, it is an adventure.

Adventurer Book II - Dawn of an Empire Short story prequel- The Lurking Lair: An Adventuer Series Short Story Summary for the LitRPG savvy reader: Looking for a LitRPG that is more tabletop traditional role playing game and less MMORPG? This is probably your cup of tea. Long term progression with a heavy slice of life element. Strong mix and inclusion of ancient Greek life, values, and myths. Hence, the world can be a bit more harsh and brutish than modern sensibilities. The system is tangible and knowable beyond the MC's insights. The MC is more of an everyman than someone specifically chosen for the experience. Author's Note: This is my debut novel. Up until this point, the only thing I have written of comparable length has been non-fiction and related to history. I am immensely grateful to all the folks who have given me feedback and helped me improve my writing.

Placed on 'Nightmare mode' and being reincarnated as monsters, they are forced to survive under incomprehensible conditions. However it is only through suffering, that we grow as people. And it is only through suffering, that we truly become monsters. "Nightmare mode.... eh? Tell me, what exactly was this mode supposed to mean again? Were our lives supposed to become nightmares?" Without suffering, there is no change in anything. "Or were we supposed to become the nightmares?" This is the story of the antiheroes. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
