NINA
Nina was sitting in one of the benches that can be found around the pack's land. She seems to be in deep thoughts, until her mother went and sit down next to her.
''Nina? Is everything alright?'' Amanda asked her daughter, Nina smiled and shook her head.
''I was thinking about Adonis and i's conversation the other day.'' She admitted. Nina always told her mom her problems, because she knows that her mother can help her.
''What is it about?'' Nina took a deep breath.
''Well, it's about the pups. Mom, i think he wanted to have a kids already.'' Amanda's mouth formed an 'O' shape realizing what Nina's problem is.
''You're not ready yet aren't you?'' Nina nods her head.
''I mean...it's not that i don't want to have any, it's just i still have a problem with my other mate. I need to fix there relationshit i mean ship.'' Nina said making Amanda raise her eyebrow.
''Why? You still love that bastard even though he harmed you?'' Nina sighed guessing this would be her mother's reaction.
''He is still my mate mom. And i know he have hurt me. But....i....i cared for him. He wasn't that mean to me all the time. He was nice....and caring. ... Well for most of the time.'' Nina explained.
''That is your decission to make sweety. It's up to you to tame those beast.'' Nina turned to her mother.
''How do i tame the beast?''
''Seduce them! You know! It's there weakness when we girls do the thing.'' Nina's eyebrow furrowed.
''What thing?'' Amanda laughed hard. And shook her head at how inoccent and confused her daughter looked.
''Darling what i mean by the 'thing' is when you stand infront of them naked. It helps to calm and at the same time arouse their desires. Get me?''

''Oh!!!!! Did it always work?''
''Tsk. Of course it does. You're father couldn't even fight the temptation.'' When Amanda realized what she just said, her smile turn into a sad look. Nina sensed it and gave her mother a comforting hug.
''I still miss him. He's still the one that i know the goddess gave me. He's still your father.'' Amanda said, she stared at the sky and took a deep breath.
''Nina....what ever happened, always love your mate, always support them and always forgive them. Understand that, they aren't perfect and one's in a while they would do shit that might hurt you, but never give up. Don't be like me, i was a coward. I didn't even try to fight for him.'' Nina stands up and went infront of her mother.
''Mom! That's not true. You fight for him. Remember? How many times you tried to save your relationship with him?'' Amanda gave her a sad smile.
''Yes i did. But not hard enough.''

''Hiiii! Luunnnaaa!'' The kids said in union making Nina laugh, she shook her head.
''Well hello. Are you bothering Gamma Nix?'' The kids shook their heads still looking at her.
''Well, how about you bring me flowers from the garden? And whoever picked the most pretties flower will have a price.'' The kids cheer up and started running in the garden's direction.

''I wish i was that good with kids. But, now how can i help you luna?'' Nina smiled and held her sister's hand.
''Can you do me a favor?'' Nix raised her eyebrow.
''Of course. What is it?'' Nina smiled at her sister.
''CanyoufindBryanforme?'' There was a long silence before Nix speaks again.
''I'm sorry what? I believe i heard you wrong? Can you repeat it more slowly?'' Nina nodded her head and took a deep breath.
''I said. Can.....You.......find....Bryan......for.......me?'' Nix stared at Nina for a while and as if she just grew another two sets of eyes.
''What the actual fuck?!ARE YOU CRAZY?!'' Nina covered Nix mouth when she shouted and noticed that the packs attention was on them. Nina gave them a shy smile and drag her sister into a more private place.
''What the fuck? Nina? Have you hit your head or something? Are you okay?! Did he gave you a potion or something?!'' Nix asked worried of her sister.
''No! No! Listen please let me explain! I want you to find him, well because....I....he's my mate. And i wanted to fix there relationship. This pack needs two Alpha, it was too big.'' Nix one's again just stared at her.
''Nix?!'' Nix blinked and gave her yet another look. Nina slapped her sister in the face to snap her out.
''Ouch! Hey! That's mean!'' Nix said holding her left cheek.
''I'm so sorry okay?! It's just would you help me? Please? Please?'' Nix tried to ignore her sister's plea, but give in to it anyways.
With a deep breath she said.
''He's already here. He is captured by Queen Georgia and was sent here. He is in the west side of the territory. But i couldn't bring you there. Ask your mate first,before i take you there.'' Nina was left speechless. Bryan was already in the territory...............

8 140Dominion Expansion (a 4X LitRPG)
Clay is one of the world's top players of 4X games, a genre where the goal is to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. He's also one of the only players in the world to so stubbornly stick to the one city strategy, a favorite tactic of his that involves only ever using a single city or planet depending on the game's setting. All that matters to him is winning with his favorite strategy, but earning the respect of his fellow players for taking a sub-optimal strategy to its highest level has always been a nice bonus. And now it is because of his skill and entertaining determination that he has been chosen to represent a higher realm in a strategy game where the fate of Earth and dozens of other worlds are at stake. To the victor goes the spoils, and the spoils include entire worlds and billions of lives. That's how he ends up representing the ascended realm of Hell in a grand "game" between an entire pantheon of godly beings and other higher powers. But while it may just be a game to those overseeing it, it is a genuine war for survival to those participating in it where billions of real lives will go to the victor of whoever wins, and many will die before the game is over. Quick Author's Notes: System inspired by Civilization, Endless Legend, Stellaris, and Crusader Kings 2. Combat mechanics inspired by the Total War series. Slow-paced with many long-term plans. Protagonist has a personality heavily inspired by Ron Swanson. Know who that is and love him? You should like Clay. Know who Ron Swanson is and hate him? You'll probably hate Clay. Planning on writing every single day (turn). Days with important things happening will have the system/game mechanics be the priority of the chapter. Days where there isn't really anything important happening will be more slice-of-life and focused on character interactions. Designed a dice-based randomized map generator to create the world as the story goes on, so I don't even know myself exactly what's going to happen as a lot is dependent on world generation. Tech tree with hundreds of technologies already designed. There is a "harem," but it's not the main focus, the girls won't be cardboard cutouts, and I'm not going to completely forget about any previous women in the relationship whenever a new one comes along. One last thing. The "game" starts off with primitive technology level. The current plan is for the "endgame" tech level to be equivilent to WW2-era technology. After that and war just gets boring until you end up in space. Cover is temporary and made from royalty-free stock images while waiting for the real cover's commission to finish.

Would a resurgent Empire quash those ambitions once and for all or will it all crumble in the face of an even greater threat emerging from the depths of dead space? The Bloodlet Sun follows a cast of characters flung across the different corners of the knows worlds, as their intertwining stories affect the course of history and perhaps the survival of all sentient life.

"You said he was dead."Lyla inched closer and whispered, "He had no pulse!" "Maybe he was just stunned.""We carried him all that way," she said. "He wasn't breathing.""But maybe he woke up after we left him down there.""Woke up?! His neck was broken."Jack hung his head. He couldn't make sense of this."I know how this is gonna sound, but..." He choked on his words. "When I went to pick up my car from the body shop yesterday, he was standing across the street. Watching me.""Who was?!""Keenan. I swear to God.""No way," she asserted. "That's crazy talk. He's dead.""It was him." Jack nodded. "He had a frickin' giant tattoo on his neck." A shiver flashed down Lyla's spine. Jack confirmed what she'd been dreading.
