《Ripped Jeans and Werewolf Kisses》Chapter 4

From the balcony, Taine could see the people walking around having a good time. He wasn't going to go. Not really his scene. Maybe he was a recluse... But something caught his eye, or rather, someone. As soon as she walked through the crowd everyone stopped and smiled. She was sunshine. Warm smiles and light conversation filled his ears. Her presence was simply captivating. His legs seemed to move on their own as soon he found himself in the midst of the event.

"Aunty Jae?"
"Camila? Oh my goodness is it really you?" She laughed as the older woman put on her glasses and pulled her close.
"I haven't been gone that long Aunty Jae! I missed you though."
Her surrogate Aunt felt her arms and exclaimed. "Honey, you are just skin and bones, why haven't you been eating! Tomorrow I'll fix you up some of your favourite food for dinner, don't you worry!"
Camilla loved this woman fiercely, Jae was like a mother figure. With a soft, sad smile she said, "I'm leaving tomorrow morning."
"What? And you only got here today! I won't have that kind of nonsense you know that Camila!"
She grabbed her Auntys warm hands and laughed. "I know I know, it's terrible but Alpha Taine needs to get back as soon as he can.
"Child you need to put that man in his place, ain't nobody gonna stop me from spending time with my baby! Wait till I sink my teeth into him!"
Camila was now laughing and in tears, she missed her weird and wonderful family so much. "Aunty no, that's not a good idea, we don't exactly get along right now."
Aunty Jae pulled her even closer and whispered in her ear. "Is he that handsome fella over there, the one who can't take his eyes offa you?"

With hesitation, she turned to meet Taine's piercing stare. Unable to look away she said goodbye to Aunty Jae and felt her feet move towards the group of men he was standing with. She wedged herself between Taine and Alpha Hart. She whispered to him. "It's nice that you came Taine." He was about to reply, but he struggled to think of the words to tell her how beautiful she looked when Alpha Hart noticed her standing there.
"Ah! Here is the beautiful lady of the hour." He punched her affectionately on the shoulder. "So many people are excited to see you!" Camila laughed the comment off, surely she wasn't missed half as much as she had missed them.
Another man, her old workmate was standing with them. "No Mila, we really have missed you, you left so soon too! You're irreplaceable darlin!"Alpha Hart sensing Camila growing more emotional by the second, changed the subject.
"Camila I was just about to tell Taine about all the wonderful things you have done for the pack. She really was an amazing Director of pack resources."
Camila laughed and pointed to the table of food where more people were gathered, "well then that's my cue to leave. Don't tell him about any of the illegal stuff." With a wink and a slight hair toss she left.
Camila walked past the playground she used when she was a child, she walked past the back walls of the packhouse and remembered painting them with her friends. She went to her favourite tree and remembered the first time she was here. She remembered climbing it. She remembered crying at its roots, seeking refuge under the green canopy whenever tragedy stuck. Looking at the stars through the green on clear nights.
This place possessed a part of her soul that she could never get back or fill again.

8 113Heart of the World (LitRPG)
This is the story of how I stabbed a bear. Well... technically speaking, that became the moment my life went into a vastly different direction, all on my way to 'The Mission'. The one I had been given alongside two other seasoned players. To help people in a world with a world. But, oh hoh, that bear... Don't get me started on that. So, apart from that, here is the gist of the other part. I'm a year long employee. Though, several years before I became an employee of theirs, this crazy ensuing madness of a Full Dive battle royale between even more companies started to boil over to a breaking point. Mine thought to search for something that would truly blow the competition out of the water. Well, they found it. Deep under the sea actually. They called it a game changer. Rumors abounded of course. But the most common knowledge became that it was a power source unlike the world had ever seen. However, I can tell you now, the unknown sometimes bump back. Especially when experimenting on highly unknown elements. Still, years safely went by and thus I became a developer there. Now, what does any of this got to do with stabbing a bear? Well, ask them that! They started it all. I'm new remember! Though, chaos ensued, and well, I was there. It probably helped that I had proven myself a good fighter in game and that I had some knowledge that could help with the triplets. Oh, but my sister would box my ears if she ever realized how little time I spent learning what the other developers created in the game before I had to go in there on, 'The Mission.' So, this is a story of a mission to save the people in Realm of Ancients. Not those rookies! Oh no, that was just a precurser. AND THERE WAS THE BEAR! Sorry, I had trouble getting over it. But that specific moment changed things. -- -- Hi! This is a project I have started for the fun. This is not your typical comedy. Yes, I added quite a bit humour to the story, BUT as things go into the eye of the storm the character will face challenges that hits him down. So it is not comedy in every chapter. But what do they say, when you've hit bottom, only way to go is up! :D I am always open to suggestions that might take the story to new heights, so you all are welcome to discuss the story in the comments. Just remember the all important SPOILER tags. ;) -Omri - I'd truly appreciate if you rate the story and leave reviews as we go. ;)
