《Vikings, Mini Drabbles》Halfdan: The struggle around pregancy
Advertisement
You leaned against the doorframe, gazing over the people walking fort and back, busy with their lives, not caring about the things that happened around them. It was like they all were sucked in their own tiny world, little like you felt recently. He wasn't there when you waked up, he wasn't there when you went to sleep. You understood him, he was the brother of a king .... But you were his wife and you were pregnant, he didn't even noticed the changes you went through. Your eyes trailed up to Halfdan. He swallowed his piece of bread and walked past you into the house. You looked over your shoulder how he grabbed his belt and weapons. When he passed you again you couldn't hold back. 'I'm here you know.' You started, causing him to freeze in the middle of his way back to his brother.
'I see that.' He pointed his sword to the place you stood.
'Halfdan,' you signed.
'I don't have the time.' He interrupted you.
'Then make some!' You reacted out. He opened his mouth but you putted your finger up. 'I hate this, I feel unloved, used, you hardly are around, not looking at me. How do I need to live with that?' You asked him angry. He just looked at you, not even have the descent to try denying it.
'Do I not please you?' He asked, using your own words against you. You clenched your teeth, losing your patience over it.
'Go to your brother, he can give you more than I ever will.' You shouted, walking away from the house. Your sister was looking from not far off, shifting her gaze towards your husband, the husbands that didn't loved you.
For some reason the lake pulled you always back. You looked at your own reflexion before you laid down. You laid your hand on your stomach, looking up to the green leaves dancing on top of the trees. 'I will love you.' You whispered, talking to the little life that grow inside of you. Time had passed when you heard the crack of a branch. And when you looked aside he was standing there aside a tree. 'You're pregnant.' He began. You looked away from Halfdan, looking back up to the sky. 'Y/n?'

'Who told you?' You asked.
'Your sister.' Offcourse she did. You ignored him until he stood beside you. 'Y/n,'
'Now you are making up to me, because I'm pregnant?' You snapped his words right off. He threw his belt with weapons a little further and sat down beside you.
'It isn't easy to be the brother of a king.' He began.
'It isn't easy to have a husband that is a brother of a king.' You replied rather fast. He shook his head, turning around on his stomach. You looked to his face, admiring all the details you loved about that face.
'I'll change.'
'If it is a son you need to learn him to become a man, if it is a daughter you need to protect her. Both need a father.'
'And a father I will be.' He followed. You saw the regret in his eyes and you nodded, looking away. He laid his hand against your cheek, pulling your gaze right back. 'Forgive me?' He asked.
'No.' You muttered.
'Can I make it up?' He followed.
'Yes, always.' You caved. He lowered his lips on yours and you stroke the hair between your fingers out of your face.
'I'm sorry.'
'Sush.' You demanded, enjoying this kiss for it was to long ago you felt this way.

City of Captives
In the Qursan Empire, the grey walls of the City press down on its subjects. It is a highly divided society which is based on the magical strength of its citizens. While the most powerful are trained as Mages, the majority of citizens use their limited skills with Essence to power the City in their assigned jobs. Jano is pretty much the lowest of the low in the Qursan Empire. A Class Ten citizen forced into transitory work after having his power restricted. When he gets the opportunity to change all of that, he takes it with both hands. This is a slow burning progression fantasy. Please expect at least two chapters per week. I love writing this story but I do have unfortunate things to deal with like work and life outside of writing. I may be able to write and edit more than that, but it will never be less! This is largely still a draft. I hope to use any comments and reviews in the future. Thanks for reading!

To Kill a Fae (The Dragon Portal)

But when a charismatic stranger recruits her to retrieve an invaluable artifact, she’ll have to finally reveal her identity… and her dark secrets. * * * * * * * * * * * The darkness holds more than just secrets... Marked for death, Sabine escaped from her home more than ten years ago. But the Wild Hunt will never give up. It should have been easy to stay hidden.

When a charismatic stranger arrives in the city, Sabine finds herself unwittingly drawn to the power she can sense hidden within him. Keeping her distance is nearly impossible, especially after a life debt is called due and she’s tasked into helping steal a rare artifact. Sabine is the only one who can break the magical barriers protecting the item, but that means revealing the truth about her identity and exposing her darkest secrets. Unfortunately, the Fae aren’t the only ones hunting her. And the most dangerous monsters aren’t always confined to the dark.

Verdant Heart Seed - A Reverend Insanity fan-fiction
Back in the Late Antiquity Era, the protagonist meets his untimely demise. But Heaven and Earth always leaves a way out, his new cultivation journey begins anew on the path of reclaiming his former strength and defying Fate.---This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
