《》SCENE-2

Prem turned in his seat looking at the bride who sat in their car still shocked and saw Deva who's eyes are narrowed looking at her and cleared his throat making her open her eyes and looked at him with a blank face "You don't even know how much you helped me today but I've to bother you with one more favour drop me at the airport" which made Deva grit his teeth.
"First you sit in my car and now you're asking us to drop you off? Do you think you own it?" Deva gritted out making her notice him for the first time.
She narrowed her eyes at him saying "Oh hello watch your tone. Do you know how much I had to plan to escape that marriage? Why can't you be a gentleman and give a lift to the decent lady here?"
"You escaped from your own wedding and you call yourself decent? I don't understand how they fit in the same line" Deva scoffed making her roll her eyes and huffed facing forward.
"You seem to be the only sane person here please drop me at the airport I've a flight to Hyderabad tonight and if I don't board the plane my family will drag me back and marry me off" She requested like cute puppy making Prem blink and gave a look to Deva who seemed irritated.
Prem smiled at her nodding making her smirk while he asked "No offense but if you didn't like the groom why didn't you say no from the start?" making her sigh taking off her earnings.
"If he was actually my groom I would've said no but he was my sister's groom and she should be the one marrying him today" She said making him confused.
Seeing the confusion she explained further "That monkey sitting on the mandapam is a match arranged for my sister but my idiotic sister loved someone else and eloped with him. Instead of her my so called father the great Suryanarayana gaaru wanted me to sit beside that monkey as his bride so that our family's respect in the society will not be damaged. I thought that just may be he would see me as his daughter atleast if I marry that monkey but come on yaar why would I marry someone just to please my father so he'll love me back that's why I escaped from the emergency exit of the hotel but they saw me and started chasing after me and after that you know everything" making Prem raise his eyebrows a little understanding her problem.

"I think you did right" Prem said making her nod as the car stopped at airport. Three of them got out and the driver got the bags of his employer and his assistant while Prem continued "You are lucky we are going to Hyderabad too" making her look at the men walking inside but stopped making both the men stop too and followed her gaze.
"Mavayya.." she trailed off looking at her uncles while they blocked the trio's way. One of her uncles who stood in middle took a few steps forward and stood directly infront of Deva and warned "Siva come with us don't make our family more embarrassed".
"Maavyya..you know that this marriage is wrong why are you forcing me into this match? Is it my fault that akka eloped with some other guy? Why should I be the one to get punished?" Siva asked tired of running away.
"Siva we understand that you are not ready to marry but Amar is a nice guy earns millions and will take good care of you. He's one of the most eligible guys in our family" Another uncle explained trying to convince his niece.
Siva sighed saying "Baabai he may be the most eligible guy for marriage but I want a guy who's eligible for sharing my love. The love that I never got from neither my mother nor my father" making her uncles sigh.
"We understand that you have dreams too but please stop this and come with us Siva don't make it complicated" Warning her maavayya was about to near her when she hid herself behind Deva making her uncles narrow their eyes continuing "Don't tell me you are eloping too" and was about to hold her wrist when Deva blocked his hand.

God complex
A hero is summoned to another world, vanquishes evil, yadda yadda, saves the kingdom and lives happily ever after. There is no such hero in this story. Just a desperate youth with great ambition and very little to lose. A zero to hero style story set in a country clearly inspired by modern USA with just as many issues and the minority of mages often pulling strings from the shadows. I am also hoping the whole thing won't turn out edgy enough to cut me. I want to rely on actual good writing rather than cheap powertrip gimmicks. edit: Please don't mind Zetari's salty review. He is quite literally making up any use of the torture and human experimentation trope and says MC is blank after 4 chapters where he conveniently stops reading just at the start of his first character development. For extra entertainment, I will be uploading chapters two at a time and compose a relevant poem through the chapter names. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 89For Grass and Glory
Being old is difficult. But losing the love of your life to natural selection and being left in the dirt is even harder. Join Walton in his final journey as he figures out if his principals are just as important when there is nothing left to lose. Combating hypocrisy, youth, bad diet practises and a general lack of respect towards humanity, Walton's struggles are the true adventure of the everyday man. A story about unlikely friendship, being old, unexpected beauty, and the obsession of kicking a round leather ball in the best way possible. A story about a new world, and its possibilities. A story about the grass, and let us hope, a small bit of glory? Author note: This is a project of mine I started in 2016 and recently been writing for again. Writing for me is something I love to do, but can't always find the time for. This is also the reason I have not finished (or come close to) Ethereal Space yet. I get distracted. I started this novel intending to create something else, to break a bit with the current go to's story wise in the litRPG or virtual reality communities. So, this is my attempt at "Something different" I would love feedback or just your general opinion. But most of all, I hope it entertains. Enjoy!
8 165Cast Under Ellitis
Ellitis, a world of sword and magic. Massive in size, with most of its surface unexplored. Where dragons and spirits dwell amongst men and demi-humans, where gods and devils alike barter with mortals and immortals. Beautiful as it might seem, mystical even, Ellitis is not a world for the frail. It is a place where the strong prey upon the weak, and where the weak struggle with every fiber of their being to overthrow the strong. It is here, in an unsuspecting corner of this world, that an unfortunate soul was born an orphan by the mischief of beings untold. Eliot Wyon, formerly known as Eliot Alderman, was just a mediocre engineering student in his past life. Perhaps without any help, this life of his will be just as boring as his last. But throw in an impish ex-goddess to help him along. Maybe, just maybe, he could make this life a bit more interesting. ----------------------------------------**Author's Note**---------------------------------------- Hello Everyone, I am Vi, Cat Vi. This is my first attempt at writing a story. I am a complete beginner at this. The closest thing to an organized story I’ve ever written is essay reports back in high school. There might be syntax errors and weird language all over the place. So, apologies in advance. I’ll be trying my best to make this story as interesting as possible, and with your feedback I am sure I can make something nice out of it. Constructive criticism is appreciated. And you are welcome to comment any errors you might notice. I’ll try to fix them up as soon as I can. For now, I don’t have a schedule. But if the story gets traction, I will try to work something out. **Cover Image Drawn by me.
