"She is the one who is using men for her advantage". His sister- Lara cried
Waali looks ahead of him where a girl is sitting with two young boys laughing freely in her own world as they enjoy their drinks from the cafe.
He isn't sure what his sister is telling him is about right. It isn't because he doesn't trust her because he can sacrifice his life for her but the girl looks too simple to seduce anyone.
But, simple is the best way, isn't it?.
He clenches his hands looking at her sister broken eyes and weak self. She loves her husband who happens to stay in the same house as him because he didn't want to separate the only family he had for a few years and now recently her sister has been suspicious and found that a girl is going after her husband which mess her completely.

"What is that you want?". Almaas asked angrily looking at the same man for the past one month
He smirks, "Finally! Your brain actually works".
"What do you want?". She said pressuring every word out slowly
"It's simple. I want you to marry me". He said
She chuckles dryly, "And what do you think I will do?. Jump at your offer immediately and marry you?.
"Pretty much". He said nonchalantly
She looks at him annoyed, "Excuse me?".
"Look, it's easy and we don't have to discuss it so much. I will pay you a large amount in and after this marriage. All you have to do is marry me and be faithful for a while". He said
She glares at him if it wasn't for the promise she could slap him right at this moment but she holds herself back.
"First of all, we are not discussing anything you are only giving orders. Second of all, I don't want you or your money and last of all, do you think I am cheap enough to be unfaithful that you have to put that in words?". She said angrily clenching her hand in a fist before she punches him
"You don't have to pretend to be nice. I know you love money and that is what I am giving to you. And for your question, I am sure I have to put that in words because a woman like you needs to be told things even though I still don't trust that you will listen but I will sort that later". He said waving his hand
She hits her hand on the table as her anger surpass her sense," I am going to say it for the last time so hear it properly you sick idiot. I am not interested in you or your money or any money for that fact I can very much earn on my own and I am not going to marry someone as sick minded as you. And before you call someone characterless you might want to look at yourself in a mirror because the only person I can see all those quality in is you".
She walks outside of the cafe only for him to block her way.
"What?". She said glaring at him
"If you don't take my offer right now I promise you I will hurt every single person that you adore". He said watching her walk away

*****
She enters inside her orphanage looking at the place she grew in since she was a baby. She heard her parents died in an accident and there was no relative to send her to so she was sent to this place.
Though she was always grateful to the people here that helped her be who she was today. They made her dream and achieve them all her life.
She looks at the children playing around freely without a care of the world outside. She loves how children are so pure and unknown to the dark world outside building their own kind of world.
She smiles.
It was a stressful day with that stupid meeting she was beyond angry.
She doesn't understand how a man can think so highly of himself. She is aware he is the man who holds the oil factories around the country making him the richest man. It is hard not to know about him when he is on the front page of every single magazine and with an assistant (Safa) who is always into the magazine, it's hard not to know.
But as she suspects the higher the person the worse they get.
She prays he doesn't do what he promises to her because the people she adores are her weak point even though she throws the card on his face she cannot help but worry about everyone around her.
*****
"She is the tough one, Waali". Muzamil - his guard said chuckling
"It's not funny. I know she is pretending to be so holy. She is nowhere near it". He said clenching his hand
"Are you sure?. You didn't let me investigate it". Muzamil said
"Because my sister said she already investigated and I have her picture with Gulzar (brother in law)". He said angrily
"If you say so". Muzamil said dismissing the topic
"She is going to agree real soon". He said smirking
Muzamil shakes his head thinking about the extreme measures he is going to take now.
******
"So, what's my schedule?". She asked looking at Safa
"It's tiring, to begin with. You have many outdoor meeting this month". Safa said showing her the schedule
"Well, the meetings are big enough to compensate the little pain". She said smiling
She hears her phone ringing making her frown as she sees her orphanage guardian call coming in.
"What do you mean?". She said as she hears the guardian desperate voice, "I am coming in few minutes just hold on".
She runs to her car racing towards the orphanage in a matter of few minutes. She sees many men with different equipment standing in the front. As she enters inside she sees the fear in the children eyes so she asks them to to to their rooms.
She moves to the lounge where the men in the suit are sitting like they own this place. Her guardian looks at her standing and taking her hand in hers pressing it tightly. She looks at the man who is the reason of this problem only to find the one man she really didn't want to see.
She looks back at her guardian holding her shoulder, "Can you go look at the boys?".
Her guardian didn't move for a minute but then she moves back to the inside of the house.
"What is the meaning of this?. What do you mean you want them to move out of here?". She said angrily glaring at him

His anger rising with her as he stands in front of her with the equal anger, "I already told you everything you are the one who didn't agree to it".
She snickers, "So you are telling me because you are obsessed with marrying me you decided to go down this low to threaten orphan out of their house?".
"You-". He started
"I shouldn't be surprised though I am sure you can go down even more if possible. What is next in plan?. Are you going to kill one of the people?. Or kidnap them and do more than killing?. Tell me". She said losing her senses at the thought of him making these children worry
"That isn't bad ideas. Maybe I can work something around that one this time. But, no, my next plan is to stop the treatment of what his name is again, Muzamil?". He asked smirking
"Asad". Muzamil said sighing
"Right, him, I think that is good-". He started only to be cut off by a tight slap
"Don't even think about it". She said gritting her teeth
Before he can speak anything the old woman who is the guardian came running out pulling her away from him.
She looks at her guardian, "You need to calm down, Almaas".
"He is-". She said breathing heavily
"Just breathe. Count the number, please". Her guardian said pleading
She closes her eyes controlling her emotions. He is really pressing her button and that is the last straw for her to do what she promised she will not.
"Fine. I am calm". She said sighing
She opens her eyes looking at him again.
"Leave". She said firm
"You know if I sit in my car the next call is the one you cannot handle". He said
"I said leave, Waali". She said clenching her hands
He shrugs walking towards the door as he turns around one last time looking at her and her eyes look into his. He can feel the desperation and anger in them which is something he really likes to play with.
If she did give in to his demand it was going to be boring. He always loves competition and she is the one competition he actually likes.
He sits in his car and admires at some level that she didn't run after his car to stop him. But then her sister crying came back to his mind as he lifts his phone calling the hospital.
*****
"What do you mean that he cannot be treated here anymore". She said angrily
"Ma'am, we understand that you cannot understand but it is the orders from the higher authorities we cannot do anything". The nurse says nervously
"Then let me speak to them so I can ask the reason". She said
"What will you exactly say?". She hears his voice making her clench the papers in her hand
She turns around glaring at him as she steps close to him as she uses her pointer to poke his chest painfully.
"You really are going down for it?". She asked
He smiles, "Yes".
She closes her eyes before she slaps him again walking outside of the hospital doors. She takes steps away from the hospital that is one of the best for Asad treatment. She knows his treatment means the most to her and no matter what she wants him to be treated.
She sighs.
She walks for hours trying to find another hospital for him with no positive result. Each time she meets a dead end and then him which the worse part of it.
She looks at the sun going down at the beach as she tries to come with a plan. But as much as she tries she knows fighting against a man with so much power is going to hard. She knows he owns most of the country and if he breaks the orphanage and Asad's treatment she is going to break too.
She thinks of everything that can possibly happen and that she won't want to at any cost. She cannot transfer all the children to a different place even when she has one because that is too much for those little ones. The shift can affect them mentally which she fears the most also her guardian will be under a lot of pressure that she cannot endure. Adding that Asad cannot be moved much because of his worsening health issues.
She holds her head because the thinking is endless without any solution. She cannot make sense of how a wealthy man like him want to be with her without any benefits. She can think of all the worse he is after her for most probably her body because that is the only reason he can go to this extreme.
She hates men when they try to come at her for her body and right now the decision she is going to make is going to be the worse ever. But, for her, her promises means more than herself and she promised to protect those children with her life.
"So, what do you think?". He asked sitting beside her
"Where do I have to sign?". She asked nonchalantly shutting down her every emotion
"You should have done that earlier but I guess woman like you like a good chase right?". He said
She clenches her hands as she gritted the next words, "Where?".
*******
"How can you marry her?". His sister cried glaring at Almaas
"Appi (sister)-". He started
"No, I don't want to hear anything. I told you what kind of woman she is and you brought her to our pure house?". His sister yelled slapping him hard
She purses her lips trying to surpass the smile at the hard slap he receives. She had been hoping to give him one herself when he made her dress in that red dress and confront her guardian who didn't at least slap her but was disappointed.
He glares at her holding her hand in a tight grip," She is going to live with us from now on".
"I am never going to speak to you again". His sister said walking away
"I never thought I will come back at this moment". She hears the voice that makes her stiff
He feels her stiffen beside him and the colour of her face quickly leaving as if she hears a ghost. She looks at the direction where the man she hates with all her might stands smirking at her making her inside turn.
"You". They both said at the same time

Kernstalion
One release per week [Hiatus in November due to NaNoWriMo] [Changed the Summary based on reader feedback. Thanks guys!] When Mitchel gets a birthday gift from his girlfriend Sandra - a pre-order version of the newest VR game, he is thrilled. Real-life graphics, full-body senses, and a mysterious world that nobody knows anything about seem like a great way to escape real-life for a few months or longer. Two days later, his dreams of a pleasant pastime are shattered. After meeting a rude welcome-NPC, getting a weak starting body, and having a near-death experience, he finds himself sleeping on the ground, cold and filthy. Unable to log-out, he now has frightening dreams where the tutorial-AI is walking around in his body plotting Earth's conquest. If that isn't enough, he slowly realizes that the game might not actually be a game but that he could very well be in another world. Can Mitchel find out what is going on and where Sandra is? Can he regain his own body, and would he still want to when all is said and done? [The Story] What this story is: A LitRPG, portal-like, slow-moving story with a protagonist who has to balance crafting and 'magic' to survive. The books have a pre-thought-out plot and finish. Also, the world is harsh, and things don't always go the MC's way. What it is not: A drama, romance, grimdark, although these elements might appear. I've had some feedback that the intro seems to set up a very rough life for the MC. There is a reason for this, and I hope you give it a try beyond the first few chapters. Do note, this is not an unreasonably harsh novel.

Artifice: Iysinfyr
Nalulthyn is the young daughter of a duke that is one day asked for a favor. This favor involves the adopted daughter of the duke from a neighboring area. This girl has had a traumatic past and has closed herself off from the world completely and reacts violently when touched by anyone but her personal maid. The duke hopes that a girl close to the age of his adoptive daughter will be what she needs to recover, but things are never as easy as they seem. First is that this adopted daughter is a Terran, a rare being from a different world that has skin and hair as white as snow and an almost alien build. Second is that there is a power to this girl, one that makes her recovery all the more dangerous to Nalulthyn and perhaps beyond. Author's note: This is a soft reboot of Artifice: Tools of the Gods. As I wrote the other story years ago I felt it would be better to do this approach as my writing has changed and improved since then. For now only two characters will return though I might reintroduce others later in the story. Even though this has the gore tag, I don't plan on being excessive with it. Most chapters shouldn't have any. The only reason I have it is to be realistic with the descriptions.
