《His Possession》TWENTY-FOUR
Advertisement
I couldn't even sleep at night.
I can't.
My mind always puts images that I don't want, and don't need to be reminded of.
I didn't let go of Jaxon. I didn't care if he was wet. I didn't even care he was naked. I just needed him next to me.
I'm still holding tightly to him. He's softly snoring with his arm loosely around my shoulders.
I started to trace each of his tattoos with the little light that the moon gave.
I don't know why, but I feel like I have to be with him. Give him everything that I can give.
I know. I use to be like 'get away from me' 'don't touch me.' But now after what had happen to me, Jaxon just makes me feel safe.
I don't know how to explain it, but I just need to be next to him.
It's two in the morning and I still can't sleep. My body wants to go asleep but my mind can't. I snuggle up against his chest and just listening to his steady heart. I covered his lower half with the blanket but I have my legs tangled with his. I start to trace his jaw line then ran my hand through his hair. I start to trace his lips then went down his neck and started tracing the ink.
I untangled my legs from him and slowly climbed out of bed. I made my way in the kitchen and made myself and cup of coffee. I added some creamer and alittle bit of sugar because I wanted to taste the coffee. I sat down on the island and had the oven light on. I sipped some coffee and looked at the clock.2:37am.
I drank the coffee slowly before it burns me. My mind started to wonder off to how me and Jaxon met.

I still can't believe I accused him for bumping into me. He was putting on his sweater. I so fûckin dumb sometimes. Wait. Scratch that. I'm always dumb. I can't even take care of myself.
Then my mind went off to the shoot out and how he came to my apartment and I held a knife on his stomach.
Damn. I must look like a crazy person. Then it went off to the gang house where I knocked him out the first time. Then it went off to where we had our moment on the couch.
My head turn towards the couch and I felt my ears and cheeks heat up. I quickly looked away and continued to drink my coffee.
Then it went off to me and Greyson.
Greyson.
My eyes grew wider. I bet he's so worry! Oh my gosh! I can't believe I didn't call him and tell him I'm safe now. I quickly placed the cup on the island and hurried off up stairs and towards Jaxons phone.
I dialed his number and it rung three times.
"H-Hello?" His voice sounded scared but tried.
"Greyson?"
The line went silent and I heard him breathe harder.
"J-Jordan?"
"Yes. It's me Jordan."
"Jordan! Are you okay?! And you hurt!? Where are you!? Are-" he kept asking all kinds of questions and all the sleep in his voice went away.
"Greyson-Greyson. I'm fine. I'm at Jaxons. He came and found me. And no I'm not hurt." Physically.
Except for my leg and the bruises, but they can't compare to me mentally.
"Oh thank GOD! I was looking for you for weeks! I called the police and they said the couldn't do anything because they didn't have clues to find you! Ugh! I swear I wanted to slap them and kill them!"

I ended up on the couch and curled up to the couches arm.
"I'm glad to hear that you never gave up on me too."
"What! Are you kidding me!? I would never give up on you! Don't ever think about that! You're my main B! I don't know what I would do with out you!"
I smiled at the thought of him getting all worked up at the officers. I hear him sit up and I hear him shuffle around on his bed.
"No. I'm fine. I just can't sleep without getting nightmares about what happen." I said while my voice got small at the end.
The line went silent again till he broke it.
"W-Want to talk about it?"
Now it was my turn to be silent.
"It might help with helping you to go back to sleep."
I sighed deeply. "Well...umm. W-When they drugged me...they...they tied me to a chair and would come in out and would talk to me but...but later on they tied me onto the ceiling and they stripped me till I was just in my bra and panties. They...They touched me in places that I didn't like Greyson. I...I couldn't do anything but let it happen. They ra...raped...they raped me Greyson. And I couldn't do anything. Different men raped me every night. It didn't matter to them if I screamed and thrashed around just for them to stop. Later on they got fed up with me screaming and moving around so they tapped my mouth shut and tied me down on the bed till I soon on just laid there and let them do anything. I-I just can't get those memories out of my head! No matter how much I try I just can't get rid of them. I have a scar on my thigh to remind me of what happen Greyson!" I didn't know I was crying till I started to hiccup and my face was dripping tears.
The line was silent and all you can hear out my sobs and me sniffing.
"I just want it to stop." I said through my sob.
"I-I'm so sorry Jordan." He whispered.
I continued to cry and I closed my eyes but I gasped and open my eyes when I felt a hand on my wrist and pulled the phone out of my grasp.
I look up through my blurry eyes and I see Jaxon standing there with boxers on in front of me.
"Bye Greyson." He said then he clicked his phone off.
I continued to sob because I didn't know how long he's been there. I wrap my arms around my self and buried my face in my knees. I felt the couch dip and then I felt his strong arms wrap around me and pulled me into his chest.
I continued to cry into his chest while he was telling me soothing words in my ears while rubbing my arms and my back.
"I would never let you get hurt again Jordan. I promise." He whispered.

8 661STEM: The Topical Dungeon
Inspired by CORE: The Volcanic Dungeon by Ace Arriande and a spiritual successor to my writing prompt series Evolution Barricade, STEM is a series following the reincarnation of Kaden into the fantasy world of Brogdar. Reborn as a "DM" and a plant, Kaden tackles the challenges of being the agent of the chaotic god: trying to be his very own dungeon master. However, unlike other stories, Kaden is often making fun of and dealing with disadvantages that the normal reincarnated hero would never have to worry about. A parody of the normal tropes of isekai, STEM is a periodic series that is intended to release a minimum of once per week. There may be times where there is more than one drop, but those would be special occasions. Additionally, the content tags are simply to try and ensure my readers know these stories can encompass a large variety of things. They may not immediately be in focus, but they will all end up appearing!
8 181Windwalker
Having subdued its surrounding enemies, the former Sulic Empire is faced with unrest brewing from within. Society is torn in two. The reigning mentalists constantly persecute the subjugated elementals under the pretence of curbing the explosive potential of their destructive powers. Meanwhile, schemes and political interests clash as different groups within the Governance military elite vie for control. And in the shadows, Sulic’s old enemies have been lying in wait a long time, looking for the first sign of weakness to make their move. Against this backdrop, two ordinary individuals fight to maintain stability from opposing sides: a low ranking telepathic recruit with nothing to his name but good intentions, and an unregistered elemental contractor with a murky past. Can they reconcile their differences and help steer Sulic away from tearing itself apart? Windwalker explores themes of societal struggle and self-discovery. Book One: Rising Wind Kal has trained to be a soldier his entire life. His days are simple, and his duties clear: enforce the rules, upkeep the peace, and most important — police the elementals. If they step out of line, the Governance system corrects it. But when Kal encounters a young boy whom he suspects might be an illegal earthborn, he can’t bring himself to report him. Despite his training and the advice of friends, he decides to help him onto what he believes is the right path. This choice lands him in more trouble than he bargained for, and he soon discovers that the veneer the Governance is built upon an ugly and crumbling foundation.

8 160Dungeonborn - Double Down
He was a boy, starving and unwanted in a desert town without a name, without a hope, and without a care for a lowly street rat. Dead in a gutter without even enough flesh on his bones to tempt the rats who were his neighbors. From such lowly beginnings springs greatness, for the God of Resurrection has seen fit to bless this pathetic wretch with a second chance at life. But Gods and men are cruel in equal measure, and the place of his rebirth is just as unfit for life as the scene of his first demise.
