《Fated To The Alphas》Chapter 14 - confused

Lucy Pov
I'm not sure if i should complain or be happy, my sleep pattern today has been off the charts... I kept waking up and going back to bed with all the guys tucking me in. It's weird as shit but sad to say I'm a psycho, cause I love having them around. I even almost asked them to stay in the room they gave me. It's just crazy, my attraction towards these guys keeps growing... Making me wonder if i can really live with them so close.
I get up from the bed and rush to the washroom. It's so beautiful here. There is a bathtub and shower, like these guys are rich. I never thought this would be possible and from what I understand all the rooms are like this. All beautiful in their own way. I get myself ready for the day. I'm picking Cindy at the airport. I put on a pair of jeans and a white blouse. I'm keeping it simple today. I apply some makeup but not too much.
*knock knock*
"Come in" Jalyen walks in.
"You good?"
"Im fine, i feel a bit tired but i'll survive, how are you"
"I'm good, I was wondering if you would like to join us for breakfast"
"Yes please, am so thankful for the hospitality you guys are offering me. To be honest i don't deserve it"
"This is not hospitality... " he poses for a bit " Its friendish ship, what i'm trying to say is we care about you..." looking at my confused face it's like he corrects himself " And you have no family here, how can we leave you in this big city"
"Thank you, Jaylen" I say with a faint smile, all he said just confused me but one thing i know for sure is that i'm really grateful.
"Come, let's go downstairs" he says standing up and offering me his hand, I take it. There is this thing when our hands collid, it's like a spark but i don't put much mind to it. I let go of his hand when I'm on my feet and offer him a smile as he leads the way downstairs.

Getting downstairs Jack is in the kitchen making some pancakes.
"Good morning Lucy,how are you?" He says as Jaylen pulls out a chair at the kitchen counter.
"Good morning Jack, i'm fine thanks, how are you?"
Jack pov
"I'm good, how do you like your pancakes and what do you like them served with?"
'You show off.... Who even told you to make breakfast anyway ? Rosey could have done it' Jaylen mindlinks me
"I will take whatever you give me and thank, but would you like me to help you out?"
"No need at all, I'm almost done" Lucy is just something else, a normal woman would take advantage of this situation, and just let me do everything. But here she is offering a helping hand, man the Moon Goddess did good with this one.
'Just look at them eyes Jack, it's like looking at the sunrise at the beach' Zander suddenly says and I totally agree.
"What time was Cindy landing again?" Jaylen says stealing a bunch of pancakes without my permission.
'Jay watch it' i say giving him a death glare
"She will be here around 12:30, I was thinking of ordering a cub by 11.50. So that i would be in time for her arrival"
"And who said you will be taking a cub to pick her up" I say as I put a plate of pancakes and some apple juice infront of her
"Thanks a look for the food, but i was thinking that maybe you guys would be going to work, and i don't want to be a burden" She says so innocently
"I'm free today so taking you to the airport won't be a problem"
"Okay but if anything comes up or if you won't be able to take me there, I can really get a cub. But seriously thank you"
"It's my pleasure, now eat up before the pancakes get cold"

Breakfast was peaceful, I decided to clean the dishes to show my appreciation. I got some disapproval from the guys but made sure to do as i said. I mean they are really helping me too much. Jaylen decided to take me around their property before his shift at the hospital. It's beautiful here, so many people. When I asked Jaylen why there were so many people here, all he said was that they rent out the homes here to the people. In his word " it's kind of a source of income". Which explains a lot about how rich they are. All the people kept semi bowing as we passed them by but again his explanation was that, that's how they greet him and his brothers. Which is totally weird for me, but i don't want to think much about it. I mean who am I to judge people? My confusion aside. This place is amazing and I'm happy i will be living here for the time being because it is more cozy than at my apartment.

"Lucy are you ready?"
"Yes Jack, let me just grab my purse" Lord I need to use the bathroom before I go. I don't why, but i'm nervous as f**k. What will Cindy think of me living at these guys home, keyword "guys" not man but "guys". I do my stuff in the bathroom and head downstairs.
Jack's waiting by this Audi e-tron, lord it's a beauty. I've always wanted an Audi, that's like my favorite when it comes to cars. He leads me to the passenger seat and opens the door for me and closes it when I hop in. He gets in the driver's seat and we drive off.
"What would you like to hear?" he says as he turn on the radio
" I naturally listen to almost everything except heavy metal"
"Ouch" he pretends to be hurt "that's my favorite, but i do listen to other genres"
"I'm sorry i didn't mean to be rude" i say honestly, I haven't met anyone except him who likes heavy metal. I thought maybe he was one of the many that don't find heavy metal appealing.
"It's okay, not many people I know like heavy metal either"
"Have you heard of landon Austin? He is currently my favorite"
"Nope but we can listen to that" he says as he hands me his phone that is connected to the car via bluetooth. I search for spotify and to my satisfaction he has the app. I quickly type Landon Austin and put on one his latest hit " somebody else"
The ride consists of us listening to Landon austin the whole way. Upon arrival at the airport I get a message from Cindy that she just landed and is heading out the door of security control.
****
Getting in the airport I spot my goofing friend running like a mad woman to me. We share a crazy yet warm hug, I've missed her.
" It's so good to see you Lucy"
"I'm just so happy you are here"
We hug for a while, but are interrupted by a man clearing his throat. I let go of Cindy.
" Cindy, this is Jack, Jaylen's brother the doctor I work with"
"A pleasure to meet you Jack"
"No, the pleasure is all mine, it's nice to see Lucy this happy" Jack says
"Can i take your bags, you must be tired"
"Thank you, i didn't know how long i was going to be here so i packed enough, hope that won't be a lot to help me with" Cindy says, knowing damn well she packed too much. She's always been like this.... We would go on trips and she would always be the only one with a country of suitcases..
"No worries, shall we?" Jack says as he looks at me with the warmest smile I've seen him display.
We head to the car and Jack tells us to get in the car but I decide to help him out with Cindy's small bags as she throws herself in the backseat.
"Thank you Jack, for a whole lot, I was wondering if I could sit with Cindt in the back?"
"Of Course you can, she might get lonely if you seat in the front"
"I asked because i didn't want you to feel like i'm abandoning you" I say with a smile
"No it's okay"
I hop in the backseat and Jack gets in the front seat right after and drives back to his property.

A World Forgotten
***This story will contain lite-litrpg elements, mainly character pages and a town page. There will also be settlement building and adventuring, missteps and achievements. But one thing it definitely won’t have is a harem. Nor will it have an overpowered MC. Contains mild cursing.*** ***feel free to critique my writing and offer input. This is my first venture into writing. I've always enjoyed litrpg/gamelit books. I feel like I write how I talk, so it may be a little different. You won't hurt my feelings if you see something wrong or out of place! *** ***What follows is a condensed part of chapter 1. Enjoy!*** Drew Cooper is thrust into a new, unfamiliar world. Waking up in his sweats and t-shirt near what seems to be a forgotten path through some woods, he struggles coming to terms that he's no longer in his apartment. As he tries to cope with his new reality, he hears a horse coming down the path. He hides behind a nearby tree dreading what may happen next. As the horse approaches, he sees a man walking next to it. The horse is burdened with packs and gear. When the man nears, Drew nearly panics. He has a large sword strapped to his waist, obviously a fighter. He continues to hide as the man slowly passes only for the man to stop a dozen meters past his hiding spot. "You may as well come out, ya know. You weren't as well hidden as you thought," the man stated matter-of-factly, letting the horse’s reins go and putting his hand on the hilt of his sword. Slowly and scared for his life, Drew raised up and walked from behind the tree. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on attacking you. I-I don't know where I am. I heard your horse and hid. I didn't know what you'd do if you saw me. I'm sorry," he nervously blurted out. A minute passed. Then two. The man seemed interested with Drew and stepped closer, eyes squinting as if trying to see something. "What's that on your shirt? Is that. What is that? Is that, Pac-man?" The man was visibly shaken while pointing at me. Looking down at his t-shirt nervously, "Yea. Yea. I woke up here a few hours ago I think. 3 maybe 4 hours. I’ve just been sitting here. Where am I? What's going on?" Drew asked. "That's not important right now," the man replied. " What's important is where you're from. What year is it?" "What year? April something 2020. Why? What's going on?" Drew continued now worried. The man was taken aback. After a few moments, he seemed to calm himself some. The man sighed and looked at Drew in earnest. "Well, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Bad news is you're not on Earth anymore. Good news is you happened to run into me and not someone else. You’re either really lucky, or it’s fate we met in these woods, and I don’t believe in luck." The man continued to walk towards Drew while talking and put out his hand. "I'm John Mitchell from St. Louis or thereabouts. You’ve got nothing to be scared of by me. Walk with me and let’s talk."

Shadowrun: Blake Island School of Magic
It's a high tech, low life. It's the Seattle Metroplex in 2074. It rises like a steel and concrete cancer out of the earth. Poverty is rampant, corruption is everywhere, crime is out of control, corporations basically control everything, the old United States is fractured, magic has come back and now it turns out that humanity has been joined by elves, dwarves, orks and trolls. The old world ended but the rent is still due. Life goes on. You'd be surprised what people can adapt to, especially if they don't have a choice. One of the places where life goes on is just west of Seattle. Surrounded by the waters of the Puget Sound is an island. On that island is the Blake Island School of Magic. A decade ago it was known for producing some of the most talented awakened in the world. That reputation was hijacked by the wealthy corporate elite who now park their teenage children there. And since it's a boarding school, their parents mostly forget about them. Three young people, who are certainly not wealthy or elite, are chosen this year to attend this school of magic in hopes of revitalizing their reputation for talent. One from the ash drifts of the Puyallup Barrens, one from the most densely populated slum hive in the world and one from prison. This is their story. -- This story is set in the Shadowrun universe. If you're not familiar with Shadowrun, it mostly tells the stories of deniable mercenaries called shadowrunners in a cyberpunk dystopia. Instead of telling another story solely about shadowrunners, this story will tell the tale of young people navigating a world that is indifferent to them at best and actively hostile at worst. Shadowrunners will be in the story and we'll see them operate, but they won't be its main focus. This story originally began in 2017 as a passion project and continues to this day on the Somethingawful.com forums. The unedited version is over a million words strong. There are currently seven books in this series and I am currently in the process of editing them. If you read this story then you won't lack for content. -- The Topps Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
