《Crystal Blue Disguise (Avenged Sevenfold)》Chapter 31
Advertisement
Becca's POV
I pull up to Jimmy's house and head to the front door. He left it unlocked like he said he would, so I head inside and set my purse down by the door. I hear the shower running upstairs so I smile and go sit down in the living room to watch TV while I wait. After a while I start getting thirsty, so I head to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. As I open the cabinet, a spider the size of a golf ball leaps out towards me. I scream at the top of my lungs and jump up on the center island in the middle of the kitchen to get away from it. It crawls across the floor and seconds later Jimmy comes running in.
“Becca? Are okay okay? What's wrong?!”
“Kill it!” I cry out, pointing at the spider.
He shrieks like a girl and starts whacking it with his broom. Once it's dead he grabs a wad of paper towel and cleans up the spider guts. He throws it all away and comes over to me, pulling me into his arms.
“You scared the Hell out of me, you know. I thought something had happened to you.”
“A spider happened to me.”
He chuckles and plants a soft kiss on my lips. I can't help but to smile.
“The spider is gone now. You can come down from there.”
“Carry me to the living room?”
“Of course.”
He smiles and pulls me into his arms, carrying me into the living room. It's only after he sets me down on the couch that I realize he's only got a towel wrapped around his waist. I turn red and quickly look away from him. Fuck why's he gotta be wearing just a towel? I glance back up at him and he leans down with a smile, pecking my lips.

“I'm gonna go get dressed now. I'll be right back.”
“Okay.”
I bite my lip, watching as he stands up straight in front of me. I try keeping my gaze away from the towel around his waist, but my eyes are stubborn and go directly towards his crotch area. Dammit, Becca. Stop staring. He smirks at me before heading upstairs to get dressed. I sigh deeply, leaning my head back against the couch. Total embarrassing moment right there. But fuck I'm pretty sure he had a boner. I could see it bulging through the fabric of the towel. He comes back down after a couple of minutes and sits down next to me on the couch. I bite my lip, remembering what had just happened and look over at him. He smiles at me and takes my hand.
“What would you like to do today? Watch some movies or go to the beach?”
“I think I'd rather stay in today, so movies would be great.”
“Good. I'll go grab some movies to choose from.”
“Okay.”
I smile and watch as he goes to his shelf of DVDs to start grabbing movies. This should be a nice relaxing day in.

Fragments from the Wildlands
“Your first death is always the hardest.” Miguela was the third-born child of a well-off merchant family and knew from around the time she could speak that her life’s path was already decided. She was to become an Orator, as was Xandran tradition. However, Miguela had an affinity with the magikal arts and somehow found herself studying at the Academy. She did just enough to keep up with her studies but never found the motivation to apply herself and “reach her potential,” as her instructors often said. It was not that Miguela was uninterested in the arts. Rather, she knew her time at the Academy ultimately did not matter. Whenever Miguela returned home, she would become an Orator, and that would be that. Or so she believed until, one day, an opportunity appeared that would change her life. Miguela was offered the chance to join a research team tasked with a mission of the utmost importance to the future of the Five Kingdoms. She could not turn down the prospect of regaining control of her life and finally finding a purpose for herself. Of course, Miguela might soon discover that offers that appear too good to be true are usually fraught with lies. Welcome to Five Kingdoms of Cordizal! Question: What is the Five Kingdoms of Cordizal? I often get asked this type of question about my stories by friends, bloggers, and potential readers. The Five Kingdoms of Cordizal is a high-fantasy epic universe that is the setting for most of my stories. The foundation of the universe is its multicultural, multiracial setting with several sentient races attempting to carve their legacy and survive. The world is fully fleshed out and vibrant with a rich and mysterious history not based on Tolkien mythology. This brings me to magic. To me, magic is an essential part of the fantasy genre, so, of course, there is magic in the Five Kingdoms universe. However, one critical part of the Five Kingdoms universe is that magic is an abundant commodity that is a part of everyday life and not some plot device used to drive the story. In short, the Five Kingdoms universe is the setting of epic fantasy stories with deep characters and world-building. I try to tell as many different types of stories as possible in the universe, and hopefully, you can find something for you in it.

Reality Grants One Chance
Some people are lucky, some aren't, some - have terrible luck. Our "hero" is of the latter kind. During young age he got into an accident, which allowed him to learn the fact that he belongs to a rare group of people.. People diagnosed with lung cancer, which he, however survived. Can't say he's lucky, as his life went downhill from that point... Our story happens years later, when his fate decides to make a loop and throw him in the same kind of accident. He gets hit by a truck. Surviving the crash, suffering just a few scratches, he is ultimately "lucky" to find himself out of the hospital in no time.. however every bit of good luck always brings him terrible luck afterwards. This time pushing him maybe a bit too far.. How far? Making him vanish without a trace and find himself in the middle of an unknown forrest. Doesn't sound bad? He can consider himself lucky? Just wait and see...It can always get worse.. always.. .... Congratulations, you've made it through the intro and into the author note! If you by any chance missed the tags and didn't read the warning, please do that now. I really recommend you to. Before you jump to reading, and unintentionally scar yourself, do mind that the story is about a dark, unforgiving world, a world in which you have more opportunities to die a horrible death, than take a piss. Hero doesn't have great luck, he has dumb persistance, he doesn't go through any trial with a breeze, he pays the price of blood, flesh and tears to live..and will be paying for every mistake.. No one outright explains anything to him, just as us for the most part - he is not sure what the hell is going on.. Some real survival tactics are used as a base of the descriptions, they are as important to the world and character as any other element.. Mind that the story starts really slow, but as the stone starts rolling downhill - the pace gets faster.. Every tag for this novel has a reason to be there, so if you don't see the particular element there, don't panic.. it's either well camoufalged, subtle or simply not encountered as of yet. Big thanks to Hobbo, Enyhrye and Hveth! ...not only pointing that the description could be better, but providing invaluable input.. and being patient enough to give fleshed out advice.
