《The Billionaire in Love》Chapter 7
Advertisement
I woke up with the ringing of my phone that was near my ear.
Damn I had forgotten to leave it somewhere that was not near my body.
I flinched at the sound of it.
I got up and picked up my phone
"Hello, Arshad Khan speaking" I said in a sleepy voice.
"Mr. Arshad Khan, if you are done sleeping...... GET YOUR SELF DOWN FOR PRAYERS!" said the voice
I recognised to be...... hers..
I opened my eyes. WIDE.
"Who gave you my number?!?" I asked her.
"Am... ah.... just come down to prayers!" she said
"Is this your number?" I asked curious to know... not that I needed it but.... so..... forget it..
"No!" she snapped back.
"Ok... " I said not wanting to hang up.... why? no idea!!
"Okay... then come now! Allah Hafiz" she said and hung up.
I got up and went into my shower.
After that I got dressed and down for prayers.
************
Soon after Fajr prayer (morning prayer) my whole family set and discussed the upcoming Azma and Adnaan wedding.
I didn't get to see Ahaya, not that I wanted to, as she was in the kitchen with the women and girls.
"So what do you think, Arshad?" asked bade Abba.
My head snapped back on the discussion.
"Ah what?" I asked. This is gonna be..... long.....
"Why are you lost?" asked Haan.
Curse his intelligence! No wander he is in the CBI
"I am not... I was just thinking" I replied covering up for that lost thing..
"About what?" asked Haan.
Damn, is he like questioning me!?!!
Well, what ya think!?!! said my inner voice.
"Ah.... am... about the wedding?' I said more like a question.
"Oh..." He replied
Then the discussion continued.

I sneaked a glance at the kitchen door and this time made sure I was not lost in the conversation.
Then finally, getting me away from the discussion, my phone rang.
"Ah excuse me" I said as I got up and walked up to my room.
On my way, I glanced in the kitchen window and saw Ahaya looking out of the door.
She seemed to be searching for something.
I smiled at her childishness. I stood there looking at her.
I was so mesmerised at her that I had forgotten that I had a call to attend.
I smiled and then headed to my room to take the call.
Damn how mush she meant to me!
Woah there! Where did that thought come from!?!!!
I shook my head as I entered my room.

Raven Hood (and the Cloak of Azrael)
Long ago, in a nightmarish world created by the minds of humans, a war waged between monsters and angels. Once defeated, the monsters were forced to accept terms of surrender, terms that would enslave them forever. Their supposed hero, a hybrid infant of human and gargoyle blood, is sent off into hiding in the world of humans. All is going according to plan until Revan, a once normal 16-year-old begins going through changes he can't explain. His body is painfully morphing into something freakish and grotesque. Adopted by a Catholic Priest with a dark secret, will Father Donovan banish Revan from his Cathedral home? Or accept him as the demon he is? Or... will he kill him?
8 225Embers in the Ash
Four ordinary young people from four corners of the Earth wake up on a hill in another world. Here, their very presence is a crime against the Gods. On the fringes of civilization, life is often brief and always violent, but in the Empire's Heartland, implacable hunters seek to rectify their blasphemous existence with Blade and Fire. To return home, they will need to adapt to a place where their life will be earned in steel. But what will they be ready to sacrifice for their goal? Will their flame flicker out like so many others before them? Or will they thrive as Embers in the Ash? Hello, and welcome to my first fiction on this site! Embers in the Ash is an epic fantasy adventure story that aims to span quite a few chapters (I hope!). To set expectations, this isn't going to be a LitRPG or power fantasy-style story. I'm aiming for a fairly grounded story set in a fairly high-fantasy world. I hope you enjoy it! For this first month of publication, my aim is to give you, the reader, something to really bite into. I will be releasing a chapter every day at 9:15 AM EST (13:15 GMT), as well as the occasional double chapter (which will always be announced by a post-chapter author blurb). Check in fifteen minutes after the first chapter's release! After this first month of publication, the aim is to go for either a weekly or bi-weekly release schedule, depending on the sort of time I can reliably dedicate to writing. Either way, settle in for the long haul, and welcome to the story!

8 88Blue Road
Richard didn't heed his guardian's warnings about the mysterious and shady place from the flyer he came across. He wanted a big break and a chance to make quick and easy money, but never expected to find himself tricked and caught in a twisted experiment conjured up by scientists. Transformed into a monstrous blue, blob-like creature, Richard flees the scene in a panic. He teams up with a ghostly child named Fawn, who wants revenge on her parents' killer, and leaves town to find the one responsible for their (recently) destroyed lives. Federal Agents, corrupt corporate heads, shady scientists, and even the police are all on his trail. Richard will need to use his newly honed skills to uncover the truth of who's really behind the scenes, and who to trust. What will they uncover? [Heads up, it's going to be a slow burn, and will take a while for the story to really get going.]
