《》SCENE-22
Advertisement
It is the day of mehendi and the villa was all decorated for the wedding and other rituals. The ladies came down along with the groom side and sat on the seats arranged for them and the mehendi designs sat infront of the bride applying mehendi as slow music started.
The environment was joyful with kids running around and the gents and ladies laughing talking to each other as the waiters serving the drinks to the guests as Deva came down and looked at Gayatri who's laughing at something Hima was saying.
Siva came out of the kitchen holding a plate full of variety of sweets and walked towards Gayatri and fed her a sweet smiling and distributed the sweets to everyone and finally she stood infront Deva and beside him Noel and Prem took the sweets smiling but when Deva was about to take a sweet she turned around and went away making Prem and Noel chuckle.
"Hima come and apply mehendi too" saying Rani Meenakshi Devi made Hima sit on the couch and the designer started working on Hima's hand as one of the aunt's said "You know if your mehendi turns red you'll get a good husband who's going to love you all your life" making others laugh.
Siva chuckled at Hima's expression leaning on the pillar away from the king's family as everyone stood dancing for the songs making the remaining clap at their steps. Hima was dancing with her cousins when she bumped into Deva who caught her before she could fall both of them staring at each other.
Gayatri cleared her throat bringing them out of their lala land and moved away from each other ignoring Gayatri's teasing looks and pulled Deva onto the dance floor and started dancing. Noel came and stood beside Siva saying "Why are you not joining?"

"I'm not. I'm just an employee and I don't want any braty aunt to comment again" Siva answered making him nod and held her wrist dragging out towards the garden making her say "Where are you taking me?"
He made her sit on the swing as he took out the mehendi making her confused "You should also get a nice husband don't you think?" Noel teased making her chuckle at his silly comments as Prem joined them on the swing away from the family.
"But do you know how to design it?" Siva asked making Noel bite his tongue and say "Let me try it'll be my first time and it'll be a practice to impress the girl I like" which made her hit him on the shoulder as Prem chuckled.
"This is cool having our private time in all the drama" Prem said sighing and leaned back on his hands enjoying the cool air as Noel held Siva's back of the palm and was about to design something when they heard "You better be good at what you are doing or her hand will turn into bloody red" and saw Deva walking towards them.

Until then, I'm allowed to post the first of three books as this one goes through the last round of editing. The amazing cover art was created by the extremely talented Wesley Souza.)

That means that as of April 3rd you won't be able to read the full book here anymore, instead I will start to publish chapters for Immortality.Download (Book 2) here very soon!
8 171Deep Space Combat School: Nexus
In the deep of space, a fully automated battle school instructs students and prepares them for leadership in the military, politics, and business. But the station holds secrets that none on board suspect, and when things go wrong the students must find answers for themselves.
8 149The Last Marshal
Weird West Fantasy Noir Once the Republic Marshals brought order to the chaotic lands along the Frontier, facing dangers both human and supernatural with ancient wisdom and a six-gun —but that was a long time ago. Destroyed by conspiracy and betrayal, all that remains of that secretive order is one nameless man on a trek though the West seeking revenge on the woman he blames for the Marshals' fall and his disgrace. When a visitor from our world joins him on his journey, they together must confront the horrors of a strange land, the mysteries of the past and the real meaning of their quest for justice. The world of Tellus is what 19th Century Earth would have looked like if the stories of Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgeson were real. History in this world moves slower. The old faiths persist and civilization never conquered the dark corners of the map, at least not without being inextricably changed. Technology and culture takes a little longer to evolve in this land, as people here tend to spend more time pursuing their elaborate revenge plots or trying to avoid being the next sacrifice to the Outer Gods rather than advancing science or statecraft. Imagine Cormac McCarthy by way of Edgar Rice Burroughs, though a little less testosterone-drenched than that description would imply. Three caveats: First, there are deep mysteries here, including how such a world came to be and who controls it. Second, this world is not wholly unconnected from our own. There is a historical point of divergence, but in the distant past. To paraphrase Twain: history in this world is not a repeat of our own, but it does often rhyme. And finally, this is not a setting that lends itself to happy endings.
8 148The Gray Ranger: Unforgiven
Tassendile is a country where magic and firearms are used side by side, humans exist beside bizarre creatures, and the four moons grant people incredible powers. For two thousand years, Vashiil, the malevolent Black Moon, has been imprisoned in the Graylands. It is the job of the Gray Rangers to patrol this cursed dimension and ensure that it and its minions never escape. They have only one law: never fall to Vashiil's temptation. Never use its power. Kulgan was found guilty of that sin, and has been on the run from justice ever since. Now, after years of exile, the kidnapped daughter of a powerful governor may be able to give his life meaning again. Spoiled and petulant, the young lady Adlis is so desperate to get home that she will accept help from anyone-- even someone like Kulgan.
8 336Born with an Innate Technique in Jujutsu Kaisen
An ordinary college student dies in an unfortunate accident and wakes up as a baby. In the first year, he realized he was not in a normal world, but one where monsters that nobody can see except himself roamed about. In the fifth year, something awakened inside him, a power that may give him an edge over these monsters and turn him into something extraordinary. In the tenth year, he discovered he was in Jujutsu Kaisen, and in the fifteenth, somebody took him to Tokyo Jujutsu High. Let's watch, this fortunately (to the readers) unfortunate man's road to power, full of action and adventure. --------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: I don't own the cover nor do I own Jujutsu Kaisen, I only own my SI and OCs. This is my first work and my first language isn't English so, be ruthless and gentle, find your inner peace and after that comment and make reviews. My main posting site is Webnovel, so the chapters are posted there earlier.
