《From Rejected to Rogue》Chapter 14

"Thank you, Darius" Lexi said as she took Hannah in her arms, "It means alot to me."
"No problem, just take care of her and let her visit? She still is apart of my pack." Darius said and looked at me and I just nodded.
"Come on Hannah! My friend is coming to help Jamie build our new home and I'll be taking care of you. Let's go meet him." Lexi said resting Hannah on her hip, and walked out the door.
There was an awkward silence filling the pack house as Darius and I just looked at each other. His eyes.. His eyes were full of guilt and sadness and a bit of pleading but I couldn't bring myself to believe any of it. How do I know that he's not just using me? How can I be sure?.. I can't.
"Well, since this silence is awkward enough I'll be going. I have a house to help build." I said turning away.
"Let me and some of my pack help?" Darius suddenly said and I froze in the door way.
"Really? I don't think so, for all I know you could put a nail in the wrong place or do something more stupid and life threatening that I can't exactly think of right now." I said pondering the possibilities.
"SERIOUSLY?! WHEN ARE YOU GONNA TRUST ME?!" Darius snapped, yupp he finally lost it.
"WHEN YOU'VE EARNED IT!" I snapped back equally forceful, He lost control and his wolf was trying to come out but the pack warriors decided to step in so he wouldn't tear me to pieces or whatever. Unlike him I just stood there calm and collected.
"That was a stupid move on your part." A brunette said on the other side of the room, I recognized her as one of the girls who used to pick on me and bully me. I smiled.

"See this?" I gestured to my face. "This? Is the face of somebody who doesn't give a sh!t" I smirked and slammed the front door behind me.
Lexi and Hannah were already in the car waiting for me to get in, It would take a half an hour drive to get to the place where the house will be built. Lexi and I agreed that I could choose the place of scenery and she could choose the house and all the minor details that go with it.
"So, excited to see Spike huh?" I glanced sideways at her and noticed her blushing, there was something hidden behind it though.
"Yea, I'm just feeling a bit guilty 'cause of Jack.." she admited.
"He doesn't deserve your guilt and he needs to earn it, that doesn't mean you should feel guilty it just means that if you were to be guilty it wouldn't be for trying to move on." I said keeping my eyes on the road, Lexi nodded and turned around to play with Hannah in her car seat.
The car fell into a comfortable yet awkward silence so I decided to joke.
"So.. I guess that spare bedroom won't be my office after all huh?" I laughed looking in the rearview mirror at Hannah in the back seat.
"No, I guess not!" Lexi laughed. I never wanted kids but I knew that Lexi did.. She was good with Hannah, I just feel bad that she can't have any. Unless she got with Jack. According to Werewolf legend, a Werewolf could not have children unless it was with their TRUE mate. In Lexi's case? It was Jack.
"You're going to have fun tomorrow you know that?" I said looking at the road. Tomorrow was Lexi's date with Spike and I was super excited for her but she wouldn't let me put her in leather and make her all sexy. Her exact words were 'If I'm going as myself personality wise I'm going in fashion wise too, I won't hold back my true self!' I raised my hands in surrender 'Hey! It's an option.' I remember countering.

"I hope so.. but I'm NOT going in leather!" she said narrowing her eyes at me, I just shook my head laughing.
Fifteen minutes later we arrived at the spot I'd chosen which was in a field with a man-made pond and a rope swing over it for some fun-in-the-sun time. I came here whenever I was bullied to just sit on the rocks and think, I lost hours of sleep doing that since I only had time for it at night.
I saw Spike and his building men already starting to lay down the foundation when we pulled up, and got out of the car.
"THE FUN HAS ARRIVED!" I yelled making people give me weird looks and laugh, Spike walked over to us and greeted me shaking my hand. He looked over at the car which currently had the truck hood up; Lexi was grabbing a lunch basket and a blanket for her and Hannah, who carried their swimming gear incase they got too hot and decided to play in the lake.
"You never said you had a kid?" Spike said looking completely confused.
"Are you saying I'm fat?!" Lexi gaped in mock sadness.
"No! I-I I was just.." he stuttered, Jeez she already has him whipped!
"I'm just kidding Spikey and no, this is my little sister Hannah. Hannah? say Hi to Spike!" Hannah waved and giggled.
"Oh! Okay." he looked relived, Lexi rolled her eyes.
"Have fun building the house!" Lexi called walking off to find a shaddy spot in the clearing.
Spike turned to me and raised an eyebrow glancing in the direction Lexi was walking, I just smirked and folded my arms.
"Is she always like this?" he asked rubbing the back of his neck, I just smirked and patted his shoulder.
"You'll get used to it! In fact, It'll grow on ya." I said walking past him.
"Hey!" he said catching up to me, "I never said I didn't like it. So, you ready to build?" he said wiggling his eyebrows I gave one nod.
"Okay!" he said enthusiastically. "EVERYONE!" he used his future Alpha voice to get everybody's attention, "THIS IS JAMIE! YOU WILL BE BUILDING HER HOUSE! TREAT HER NICELY AND SHE IS ALSO BUILDING! THAT IS ALL!" he yelled then turned to me.
"Alright! Let's get building shall we?" He asked gesturing to the house.
"Let's get to it!" I laughed as we walked to the building site

8 181The Many Blades of Wuxia
Hundreds of years after the Heretic wars ended, life has returned to its blissful ignorant state that only peace could bring. Whilst the never-ending war between Man, Beast and Mutant rages on, most are not even aware of a war that happened between men. Its prophecies shattered, their remnants surviving only in obscure bard tales. One is about to grow. On the cracked face of the world, Essence storms and Beast Waves keep the citizenry locked atop the Emperor city of Qaelang. Knowledge of the past is as rare as the metals that flow into the hands of Sacred Artists and at the root of it all are whispers of a malignant force, ancient and terrible. Holding humanity back from achieving greatness, but hiding too are secrets best left untouched. Balance, discipline and order have held Qaelang secure since time immemorial, the powers within claiming to adhere to them. None are more fearful of change than the ones with the most to lose, but change is coming. Blade of Wuxia is a long character-focused epic fantasy with progression and growth. It's about a boy's quest to become powerful enough to save those he cares most for and give them a better life. It's set in a world of hidden pasts and uncovering them will set him on a path that shakes the Empire. As this is a rewrite that took on a wildly different spin, reviews are most welcome and help me do better. What can the reader expect? A Wuxia society set in a High fantasy world. People are only doing what they know and may have mistaken beliefs. A clever resourceful protagonist with human flaws A far-reaching hidden fantasy world, rich in history. Multiple points of view are used to follow the story to its natural conclusions, not every NPC has all the answers, but there is one MC in this book. Progression will take time and sometimes even unknowingly. MC is not trained in the ways and knowledge must be tempered against experimentation. Release Schedule. 2 chapters a week, family and work permitting. Only if I'm happy with the chapter will I release it. That being said I am open to revision should an articulated critical response show merit. This story is not completed yet but I do have a general idea of what the end looks like for both MC's (yes both) Ultimately feedback will be most influential on the progression of release as it's you guys I'm looking to entertain. Expected Changes None really, I'm writing as I go and have a path planned for 6 books Chapter release rate might change if we take off and feedback starts flowing, but for now, it is just about making sure Arcs flow smoothly onto the next. Cover, yes absolutely! If there is enough interest I will open a Patreon account and use the first proceeds to commission an EPIC cover and hopefully a few scary artworks of our brave Cultivators and the foes they face.

I snapped my eyes to his doing my best to give him the angriest glare I could.Something is his eyes flashed as he pushed me against the couch before climbing on top of me. "Get off of me!"His head dipped to the curve of my neck as he ran his nose along my skin, I felt him inhale slowly as he grabbed my hips roughly.
