Izzy's PoV:
Squid carried me into his house and put me down on what I was pretty sure was the sofa, although it was hard to tell as I was so dizzy. I could vaguely make out that Squid was talking to some people. I slowly turned my head in the direction of the other people to see if I could see who they were and immediately wished I hadn't. Pain shot through my body and my head felt like it exploded. I shut my eyes, I was in so much pain. I don't really know what happened next as it was all just a blur but I remember pain, pain worse than I had ever felt before, then a lot of movement, then I was in someone's arms. I opened my eyes to see the floor about an inch from my face. I must have rolled off the sofa and, I assumed it was Squid, caught me. Squid lifted me up and I heard him say something. I felt someone else walk past me then Squid put me on the floor. There where pillows on the floor and then someone stepped over me, I opened my eyes to see who they were. I recognised them immediately even through the blur. It was Tomohawk, he was lighting the fire. I felt the warmth hit me and the dizziness got slightly more bearable. "Thanks Tom." I said weakly. He smiled at me and then turned to Squid who was behind me. "I'm gonna go to bed. What are you going to do?" He said. "I will stay down here with Izzy. Can you tell Nicole to set up the spare bed for Flo." Squid replied. Tom nodded then walked out of the room. "Are you feeling any better?" He asked me. I nodded, "slightly." Squid put his hand on my forehead, "What were you and Flo doing out there?" He asked me. I thought about what to say. Should I lie and say we were going for a walk or should I tell the truth. But then all those thoughts left my head as I felt pain in my ankle. I remembered twisting it, my foot must have gone numb with cold but now it's warmed up I can feel the pain again. I groaned and tried to sit up to pull my shoe off, but I sat up way to quickly and the dizziness overwhelmed me again causing me to fall back to the ground. Squid tried to catch me but, as he did so, he lent over and his arm touched the wood burner that was boiling hot. He yelled in pain and dropped me, I hit my head on the ground and I nearly passed out. I could hear an alarm and there was a burning smell. I felt extreme heat near my back and I tried to roll away. I saw a figure rush past me and try to grab Squid. I heard Squid say something that I couldn't make out, whatever it was the other person wasn't happy about it but they grabbed me and lifted me up over their shoulders. I knew who it was now, it was Tom. He had come in to get Squid but Squid had told him to get me. Tom rushed out of the room and handed me to someone who rushed outside. I could hear sirens, I tried to look around me, I could see lots of smoke, two fire engines and and ambulance. Nicole was carrying me and she rushed towards the ambulance where someone else tried to take me. Although I hadn't known Nicole very long, I felt safe around her, Squid and Tom, it was the safest I had felt in a long time. So with the last ounces of strength I had I clung on to Nicole, not letting go. They managed to prise me off her though and I was carried into the ambulance. Squid and Tom soon joined me. A breathing tube was put over my mouth and I could see that Squid had the same. There was a horrible burn up the side of his arm and onto his back. Suddenly all the pain that had happened to me in the past few days exploded inside me, my ankle felt like it was disintegrating, the side of my leg felt like it was on fire and my head was hurting like crazy. I was in so much pain the world started to fade. The last thing I remember before I blacked out was movement, sirens, people crowding around me, then black.

Tower of Somnus
When humanity first encountered alien life, we were judged and found wanting. The Galactic Consensus interviewed our leaders and subjected us to a battery of psychological tests to determine our progress as a society. They found us to be selfish, wasteful, impulsive, and boorish neighbors. Earth was blockaded and our collective encounter with our extrasolar neighbors rapidly faded from memory. All they left behind was a hypercomm relay and a handful of subscriptions to a massively multiplayer game that participants played in their sleep. The Consensus said that it would let us interact with our neighbors in a controlled setting. That it would teach us to be better members of the galactic community. The megacorporations that controlled Earth ignored the game until they learned that the powers earned from clearing dungeons were just as real when day broke. Magic, supernatural abilities and rumors exploded from nothing and a subscription to The Tower of Somnus became a status symbol. Katherine ‘Kat’ Debs doesn’t have much, but it could be worse. Born in an arcology, she was assigned a job in the megacorporation that raised her almost as soon as she could work. Despite the stability of her corporate life, she wanted something more. A chance to claw her way up the rigid social and financial ladder to make something of herself. A chance that wouldn’t come naturally to someone as familiar with dark alleyways and the glint of steel as she was with office work and corporate niceties.Book One is up on Kindle Unlimited as of 7/6/22 - https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B2X3L8H5

My Hermit Life
My name is Solomon Ars Regis I am a veteran who lost both legs while on duty. One day after I was released from physical therapy early I came home to find my girlfriend cheating on me with my brother, feeling betrayed I scream at them to leave my house. A few hours of brooding later I decide to go to sleep. When I wake up I am in a forest in a different world. Hi this is my first story so please dont expect much. Disclaimer - I say hermit in that he lives in a cave in a giant forest with his wife and and master with occasional visits from his parents or other creatures. I do not use hermit in a religious sense or in that he lives entirely alone. The first few chapters are worse than some later chapters. If you can get through to chapter 24 you will find that the quality increases. I will do a rewrite eventually so look forward to that . . . . . if you want.

Falling For A Man Of The City
He stood up momentarily discarding his shirt, eliciting a small moan from me at the sight of his physique. His body would always take my breath away at the black ink and scars littered holding a story of their own. When my eyes moved down past his pectoral muscles to his pants I felt my breath hitch in my throat at the view of his manhood straining against the fabric. If I didn't feel shy with the way he was admiring me, I certainly felt shy when he reached out to remove my underwear. It was the first time I had ever allowed anyone to see a part of my body that I had been taught to guard fiercely so it was only natural that I look away feeling self-conscious. Considering I wasn't making any effort to hide it, he chuckled lightly making me blush when he went further to spread my thighs gently unveiling the secret that I had been yearning for him to see. "You have such a pretty pussy," were the words that came out as more of a growl. Turning to look at him, I found his eyes already watching me causing my chest to constrict in sweet agony, "I'm going to enjoy eating you, my little gazelle," he cooed gently falling to his knees in a prayer like motion. Only this form of prayer was far beyond holy but aimed to please and was sacred in its own way... ***When Aaliyah Winston waltzed into the city of New York in search of a new life, unexpectedly she is thrust into a world. She gains more than she bargained for once she catches the eye of the leader of the Mafia. Drenched in decadence and an allure that has her throwing all caution aside, he proves to be more than meets the eye. As they indulge in an attraction so powerful and addictive surpassing that of any drug it's in their aim for love, when family secrets and lies are exposed. It's quite a risk to allow a man like him into her bed. Yet the true test of whether they'll survive lies if she can accept hands that have been painted in blood holding her heart.
