"What's the plan for tomorrow?" I asked Luka. We were sitting in the dining room eating a pizza he was forced to order after I refused to cook.
"We have three meetings at the office from seven to twelve. Then, we'll take and hour lunch. After lunch I'll nees about two hours to finish up paperwork. We'll leave the office and I'll show you around the warehouse downtown ams introduce you to a few workers," He answered and took a sip of his juice.
"How far away is the office from here?" I asked, grabbing another slice of cheese pizza.
"An hour," he answered, "I'll have my assistant get us breakfast so it'll be there when we get there." I nodded and looked at my ringing phone.
"Hello," I answered.
"Oh so you just forgot all about me," Sincere said dramatically.
"I just talked to your dramatic ass this morning," I said with pizza in my mouth.
"That was yesterday to me!" He yelled.
"What do you want? And why are you calling me from Adrian's phone?" I asked.
"Give me my phone," I heard a voice say then I heard a pop.
"Don't be hitting me mother fucker," Sincere yelled at Adrian.
"Fuck you gone do? I'll piece your scrawny ass up in here," Adrian said.
"Hey!" I yelled into the phone, "Dumb ass and dumb ass senior, y'all need to relax!"
"Sorry sis," Adrian said, "Where your mans at, I got a drop earlier."
"He right here, I'm going to put the phone on speaker," I said, removing the phone from my face and go putting on speaker.
Luka sat up and listened as Adrian spoke, "Alright, Diablo knows you two are married. Which is good for Zo's protection given the alliance between Diablo and Luka. However, he refuses to acknowledge this as a formal alliance between the two of us. We would have to make the alliance public to the 'community'."

"That fat bastard thinks he's slick," I said angrily.
"What do you mean?" Luka asked.
"We obviously can't bring them here, they can't even go to the fucking airport. My people are the who's who of America's most wanted. Even if I can find someone clean, it'll be too suspicious and easily tracked back to me by the press. And we can't go there, it's too risky we'll be vulnerable," I explained.
"We'll just double up on security, I'll make sure there are extra men, no problem," Luka reassured.
"Let's call that plan B," I said.
"What's plan A?" Sincere asked through the phone.
"We're going to network it, tell people we're allied, make sure it gets back to Diablo," I pitched.
"It won't hurt to try that," Luka said with a nod.
"Oh yeah, he thinks the marriage is real," Adrian said.
"That's perfect," I said with a smirk.
"How?" Adrian asked.
"He thinks I'm Luka's weakness and vice versa. When in reality, that's far from the case. If he strikes, he'll expect a non strategized retaliation," I elaborated.
"That's smart," Luka agreed, "Listen, we have a long day tomorrow so we'll get back to you tomorrow."
"Alright, bye Zoey," Adrian said before hanging up.
"Zoey?" Luka mocked.
"Suck it," I said, getting up and throwing away my plate and walking out of the kitchen.
"Where are you going?" Luka called as I walked up the stairs.
"To take a shower!" I yelled back.

"What are you doing?" I asked Luka as I walked into the master bedroom wearing my pajamas and bonnet.
"I'm going to bed," He answered, getting in the bed. He was wearing red and black plaid pajama pants and a black t-shirt.

"Get out," I demanded.
"What do you mean get out?" Luka asked, putting his feet under the blanket.
"You're not sleeping in the same bed as me, get out," I repeated, firmly.
"We're married," Luka stated.
"And the sky is blue," I said sarcastically, "Now that we're done stating the fucking obvious, can you go?"
"Why do I have to go? This is my house, I paid for it," he stated.
"You have to go because I said so. You must have let this marriage shit go to your head, I will still fuck you up," I said, annoyed, "Now go to the guest bedroom, I have to wake up early tomorrow morning."
"Fine," he gave in, "But don't think this is happening every night." He stood up from the bed and walked to the door.
"Shut up and get out," I called to him as hell walked away. He just chuckled and flicked me off.

It starts when someone takes a life that was never theirs to take.It ends when every shard drowns and nothing remains of what they once knew. Thirteen years ago there was a massacre; a witch hunt of the worst kind with the ashes of innocents falling from the sky. Now, the world is made up of fragile glass, the cracks sharp and jagged. Hatred boils the crimson sea beneath the surface. All it takes is one wrong move- A plan to change the world.A bloody smile with an unspoken apology.A girl with bleeding hair in the monster filled mountains.A change in destiny. -for it to shatter. This is the story about the second war between nephlims and humans.This is the story of how everything ends. -- (21JUN2020 story will be active for another week, I unfortunately do not have a backlog so I can't extend my chapter updates until another port call. I do not know when the next port call will be so I will be on another Hiatus for an undetermined amount of time. Scribblehub is not blocked on my work computer so I will be able to update my story on that website. It can be found here.) This story is a draft, I'll be doing my best to update monthly; work might get in the way of that so some update might be delayed an extra week or so. There will be roughly 31 chapters in total (I have the entire plot written down for the first book and the overall plot written down for the entire series.). (Summary is also a WIP and will change later to better fit the story. Any advice on how to write a summary for multiple POV's would be amazing)

Hellfire Across the Heavens
Three centuries of FTL space travel has spread the people of Terra far across the stars and for nearly half a millennia people have asked the question, "are we alone in the universe?" The answer to that question is a resounding no. To one side, humanity is boxed in by an ancient empire whose light has burned up long ago. To the other, is a federation of alien races known as the Senate. Mankind rejoiced the knowledge that they were not the only life in a cold dark galaxy. But as first contact was made, ET's who transited into the Warp seemed to disappear without a trace, technologies traded with the other races malfunctioned or refused to work entirely, and simple translation errors led to grave misunderstandings. Before long, humanity was outcasted by the Senate and relationships soured, but even still the sons and daughters of Terra worked hard to earn the respect and trust of the Xeno's.
