《Blackmail》Due
Advertisement
I do my business and stand at the sink to wash my hands. My stomach is in the way, just like every other time.
"You look like you are about to pop."
"Just about."
I take my hands out from under the water, grabbing paper towels. I turn to the woman who is speaking to me.
It's Mrs. Miles.
Please don't recognize me. Please don't recognize me!
"When is your due date?"
"June 20th."
"That's coming up quickly."
"Yeah."
"Do you know the gender?"
"No."
I know that's a lie but I'm not sure if I should even be speaking with her.
"Do you have any names picked out yet?"
"Not yet. A few bouncing around in my head but nothing major."
"I remember picking out names when I was pregnant with my son. Hardest decision ever."
"Babe?"
Thank god Nate is saving me.
"That's my boyfriend. I have to go."
I try not to make it too obvious that I'm happy to get out of this situation.

War of Seasons
Dorothea Atlin is the young, apathetic leader of the neutral territory of Sirpo, a chilly land hovering above the continuously warring factions of Sacer and Ghuria, whose devastating magics have ravaged their people and lands time and time again. Following a shocking attack and a cruel deception, Dorothea grows her conscience and takes up arms, using her self-destructive ability to manipulate the flow of time to ensure Sacer’s victory. Her growing understanding of war and the two factions is guided by Iree Nobelis, the determined and enthralling commander of Sacer’s forces, Ariana Kingfisher, a steely swordswoman of mixed Ghurian and Sacerian descent, and Rhys Tamlin, a kind but haunted soldier who goes to challenge Dorothea’s self-imposed celibacy and join her on a mutual journey of healing from the tragic legacies of the Atlin family and wars between the nations. Meanwhile, Dorothea’s only friend and deserter from the Sacerian military, Shark Olyen, returns to their homeland to face the family that disowned them and finds more than they bargained for in meeting Cerid Creed, a noble whose duty to his people clashes with his desires in romance and in life, much like Shark’s did long before. As their developing or preexisting loves and differing convictions on how to achieve peace create rifts between these major players, Dorothea experiences a personal revolution that leads her to fight for what she believes is right, no matter the cost. A slow-burn story that takes time setting up the psychology and motivations of characters for explosive payoff later down the line. Cover by Ben Arisson, who is also a wonderful author on this website!
