Cassandra
I received a big hug from my friends when we got to our house. My family and I are very grateful to Fabio. During those two hours I heard nothing that they mentioned Nicolas' name. Smile is all I see on their lips and joy in their eyes.
I smiled. How I miss their smiles. I miss this feeling. I feel the security in my heart when I see their smiles.
I got up from my chair when I saw Fabio get up and head to the kitchen. I followed him.
When I entered the kitchen I immediately saw him on the counter pouring wine. I approached him. "Where is Alfred?" I asked.
He drank first before facing me. "Nicolas doesn't know yet that you are no longer in Daniel's place. Alfred told me that Nicolas doesn't want to see you because he's mad at you for what you did. I know it is not your intention to tell them where the data is and I think you just did that because you had a reason.Nicolas and all the members of the head of la familia were ordered to kill you on sight.The head of the la familia was furious for losing the data. I'm sorry Sandra. "
My knees went to jelly. I didn’t know that all my plans would be like this. "I thought Daniel couldn't get the data that easily because I know how Nicolas values things but I was wrong. I'm sorry."
"Alfred wants to talk to you. He will come here tomorrow and don't worry Nicolas doesn't know what Alfred is doing. Alfred wants you to be safe so he did this behind Nicolas' back."
I nodded. "Alfred will take you tomorrow to a safer place. Daniel will definitely make a way to get you back. Just trust Alfred."

"Why is Alfred doing this? I don't understand, he's Nicolas' friend and right -hand. What if Nicolas finds out he'll definitely be killed."
Fabio grabbed both my shoulders and then stared at me intently. "Listen to me Sandra. I will do everything to protect you. I will not let anything bad happen to you. Even if our first meeting was not good, even if I was your stalker or did something bad to you, I will not let anything bad happen to you. I'll protect you no matter what happens."
"Thank you so much Fabio but you don't have to do that thing. I can do it myself. During the time I was in Daniel's hands I learned how to fight, think and take steps. Daniel doesn't hurt me but I know what he's thinking. I stayed with him so he wouldn't do something I don't want, but it doesn't mean I don't need your support anymore I'm still a woman and one day I'll need you still help. "
"That's good to hear. I'll go now I still have to do something." I just nodded at him and looked at the receding figure. I sighed as he left.
What am I going to do now? Everything is messed up. Maybe I'll just wait for Alfred and listen to what he plans. Wait. Why is Alfred doing this I don't really understand.
The next day I prepared myself for whatever Alfred would say. My life is in danger according to Fabio because of what I did. Nicolas and the la familia had eyes on me, maybe when I came out of the house I would be dead immediately.
At nine o'clock Alfred's car arrived. Still the same as he uses. He smiled as I greeted him in the living room. I crossed my hands against my chest and raised an eyebrow.

"It's nice to see you again Mrs. De Luca."
I crinkled my nose of what he said. "What are you doing Alfred? Don't you know you can be harmed by what you're doing? You know Nicolas."
"I know. La familia is in trouble now so I need to take you to a safe place."
"How can I make sure this place you're talking about is safe? You're still Nicolas' men so you might set me up."
He laughed. "Oh come on Mrs. De Luca, I won't do anything that will harm the boss's wife."
My forehead furrowed even more. "For your information Alfred Nicolas and I were separated."
One of his eyebrows rose. "Really? I didn't know that. We didn't know you were separated. The boss never said you were separated-"
"You're mistaken. We're separated and ..." I couldn't continue what I was about to say when my memory returned when I saw the paper Daniel was holding with my signature. "... I'm married to Daniel."
He went near me and led me to sit on the sofa. "You can't marry that man if you're still married to my boss."
I shook. "No."
His phone rang. He looked there then turned to me with apprehension.
"What?"
"Nicolas is coming here."
I immediately got up.

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]

The Last Breath
When Yezzu first sent his sons to the realm of men, they brought with them the magic of the gods. They created the three kingdoms we now have today being Dremshen, Ex'ol, and Kantillion. In the five thousand years since the gods left, much has changed. Great wars were fought, Universities were built, civilizations were created. One thing remained after the gods' departure though, their powers. Today, the balance of crafting the three gods brought has shifted. In the beginning, each had the same skill as the other, but the magic that was passed down through the millennia has diminished. The struggle for power that started long ago is coming to a defining moment. Plots of war and assassination are being weaved. Don't despair, for we may yet be saved from the disasters to come. Our hope lies in three young crafters. The first is William Divus, who sets out from his small village into the Dremshen Kingdom to study crafting after his father's passing. His questions about his father and his quest for knowledge drive him. Next comes Ehzahn Obasi, an Ex'olian thief with unparalleled skill. He steals for the thrill, no longer needing the rewards that come with it. He has just achieved his lifelong dream, but he will soon learn how much he underestimated the fallout from his daring theft. The last is Ki Soru, the niece of a powerful duke. She showed promise with crafting at a young age, so she had the best training the Kantillion Kingdom had to offer. Ten years have passed since her lessons began, leaving the king unsatisfied with the results. Her life is upended when her new teacher arrives, revealing a secret kept from her that changes her whole life. These three are our heroes. They were born in separate kingdoms under vastly differing upbringing, but each with their own part to play in the challenges to come. Here begins our tale of mischief and misery with only but a sliver of hope.

The carnomancer
Jackson was but a normal american just looking to get by in life. unfortunately for him life had other plans as a terrorist bombing took place in the air port in london where he was getting off at. The resulting explosion killed him instantly, and now he has been reincarnated into the world of Rokna.In this new world of magic, monsters, and conflict join him under his new identity Adimir freelancer the adventurer half-elf as he seeks a way to live out an exciting life of researching new and creative ways of combining magic and science. But with a tyrannical empire beginning to prepare for a bloody war the signs of turmoil begin to loom on the horizon. Adimir will face numerous challenges. Both challenges to those native to this world, and against other people have come from earth. Author's comment: I'll be uprfont with you on the entire war thing that the description hints at. Yes it will eventually happen, and many of the strange and out of place things in the beginning will tie into that. Not that it will be explained until much later in the novel. In fact the first 100 or 200 chapters will be spent on the main character growing stronger as an adventurer before the entire war even begins to start rearing its ugly head. So for those eager for the war to kick off sorry, but there won't be a big explosive war so early. At least not with the empire (although if you read carefully you may be able to pick up signs of how close the war is with what happens in the story). But the wait (I hope) will be worth it as it will be diving into some of the stuff a otherworlder in a significant position of power could do with the right knowledge. With that little warning over with I hope you enjoy this novel of mine. Its my first actual attempt at writing a story for people to read so please keep that in mind. If you have any criticism please tell me. I'd love to read them and will be using them to help me in improving my writing quality as time goes on. Experience is the best teacher after all.
