《Ms. Kim wants me!》Chapter 3
Advertisement
It was now Sunday and I was working at Barnes and Noble. I was putting some new books on the shelf. I was standing on top of a ladder because I'm too short. I'm only 5'6 like come on!
I was putting my last book away on the shelf
I was getting off of the ladder until my clumsy self tripped and I fell, but I didn't. Someone caught me so I looked up and my eyes widened
"Surprised?" Ms. Kim teased and I immediately got off from her
"More like scared," I said and she chuckled
Her smile was pretty
"What are you doing here anyway?" I asked as I carried the ladder to the storage room. It was quite heavy and I was struggling
Ms. Kim laugh and helped me carry it instead. "Thanks," I said
"No problem, Lili" she winked
I blush at the new nickname
"I'm here because I need some books," she said as she put the ladder down "what kind of books?" I asked looking at her
"Uh....cooking books?" She said and I laughed
I walked away and she followed me. We went upstairs and I found the cooking books. I grabbed her a book and hand it to her
"Why do you need a cooking book?" I asked raising an eyebrow
"Um...I want to cook" she answered and I giggled
"Anything else?" I asked
she nodded "My cousin is having a baby. Do you have any books for babies or something?" She asked and I walked away making her follow me
We arrived at the kid's section and I randomly pick up a book and give it to her. She grabbed it and raise an eyebrow
"My friend is a monster?" She asked and I sigh

I grabbed the book away from her and grabbed another book
"The ladybug adventure" she mumbled while nodding
"That's all?" I asked and she nodded, but she just stood there
"Bye? The checkout is downstairs" I said giggling
"Oh! Right, uh...when do you get off from work?" She asked
"Um..in like 1 more hour, Why?"
"Wanna grab some coffee?" She asked
"Only if you buy me Cookie" I smiled
"Deal," she said smirking
"Now, why are you still here? Go check out!" I said laughing
"I'll stay here. Just in case.... anything happens" she said sternly and I rolled my eyes and start to work again
I was almost done and Ms. Kim was still next to me this whole time we were talking and she's not that bad to talk too
Ms. Kim was reading a book next to me and I chuckled
All of a sudden a girl came up to me
"Excuse me? Do you have any phone number books?" She asked and I nodded "Yes we do! Just follow me" I said then walked away
Ms. Kim was now walking behind me because the girl was next to me
I can feel her staring at us
We arrived at the section and I gave her the book
"Here you go miss," I said and gave her the book
She opened the book and looks confused
"Is there something wrong?" I asked and she nodded
"Yes! All these numbers, but I still can't find yours. What's your number, honey?" She asked while smiling at me and I got uncomfortable
"Uh... that's personal," I said backing
"Aw! Come on! Have some fun!" She said coming closer to me
All of a sudden, Ms. Kim went in front of me and put her arm out protecting me
"GOODBYE, MISS!" Ms. Kim said sternly then the girl ran away
I heard her chuckle and I sigh in a relief
"Thank you, I own you one,"
"See, told you I need to follow you," She said smirking and I laughed
Her accent is so soothing

8 176The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.

8 93The Mischievous Mrs. Maxfield
***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain.*** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
