LaMelo
I was outside getting some shots up with my dad and Zo. "Come on Melo what's wrong with you today?" My dad asked as I missed another basket.
"You and Dom going through it again huh?" Zo laughed. I ignore him trying to focus on my shooting, but I missed again. "I guess that's my answer." Him and my dad laughed.
Gelo comes outside,looking all mad, "What happened Melo?" My dad and Zo were confused, "Don't worry about it. It's none of your business."
"But it is though because Dom is family to me and you always find a way to fuck shit up with her!" He charges at me, but luckily my dad and Zo grabbed him.
I would've got laid out
"Why re you defending her? I thought you were my brother?"
"I am You your brother," He calms down, "But I'm defending whoever is right, and you were outta pocket last night."
I waved him off, "How am I outta pocket when she's the one doing me wrong and going behind my back?"
"That's the thing, she isn't! She doesn't entertain any of those dudes but for some reason you stay thinking she does."
"But-"
"Ain't no but," he cuts me off, "She's not like these females who only messed with you because of your name. She's not using you for followers, or fame, she loves you with everything in her. She even gave you the option to leave when she found out about the baby, because she didn't want you to owe her anything."
I start thinking about all the things Dom has done for me. She really has stayed by my side and supported me through all the stressful times.
"You'll never find a girl that will ride you like she does, and that's a fact." He storms off. I looked down at the ground feeling stupid.

"Son whatever you did, go make it right."
I can try to make it right, but will she take me back?
Dominique
I woke up with a headache and I felt a complete mess. Last night I came to my room and cried until I fell asleep.
"Hey girl how you doing?" Mo comes and sits down next to me on my bed. "I don't know, I feel so many different emotions all at once." I try to hold back my tears.
"Its okay Dom," She lays me down on her lap, "Let it out." She starts rubbing my back and I break down."Why would he do this? I didn't do anything and out of nowhere he starts to accuse me of things."
Last night caught me by surprise. Everything was fine between LaMelo and I, so I was confused on why he would have suspicions.
"Are you going to leave him, or have you not decided yet?"
"I meant it when I said I'm done." This was my last straw with him. "I don't know what I'm gonna do without him when the baby comes."
"Don't worry, we will help you with everything. You should've known that already." I sighed, "Yeah, but it's not the same."
When the baby came, we planned on me moving in, so LaMelo and I can share the load and spend time with him.
My mom came into the room, "Dom Melo is here to see you."
"Let him in." I get up from Mo's lap, wiping away my tears. LaMelo comes in as Mo was leaving and she stares him down. "Just know I don't like." She walks past him.
"I didn't expect you to be here. I thought you would be with Shareef."

"I cancelled because it made you uncomfortable, and I understand why." I shrugged, "I know we had history and honestly if you went to hang out with Ashley I would feel some type of way too."
We could avoid that whole argument last night, if he just told me why he didn't want me to be with shareef. I would have my suspicions too if it was the other way around
"Can we talk about last night?"
"What is there to talk about? You think I'm a hoe that's cheating on you." I shrug my shoulders, "I don't know what else there is to it."
"I'm sorry Dom, those were just words that I didn't mean."
"Well those words cut deep LaMelo. How could you say those things about me?" I felt the tears swelling in my eyes.
"When I seen Shareef I remembered everything that happened not too long ago and I assumed the worst."
"Well that was your first mistake. I know I cheated in the past, but I meant it when I said I would never put you through that again."
"And I meant what I said too, but I get paranoid."
"Paranoid over what? This whole time I've been by your side supporting you! All I do is stay by your side so tell me why you think I'm cheating on you."
"I don't know to be honest. I'm just worried that you'll leave me." I shake my head, "Really? I'm carrying your child, so tell me why would I want to do that?"
He stayed quiet, "See you can't,because I would never leave you. There wasn't a reason for me to leave until now."
"What do you mean until now?"
"I can't do this anymore, especially after last night. You hurt me LaMelo, and scared me. I never seen you act like that before."
"I don't ever want you to be afraid of me." He tries to come closer to me, but I back away. "It's too late for that."
I can see how bad that made him felt, "Babe I'm sorry. Please don't leave, what about the baby?"
"We'll be fine without you. You can just focus on basketball like you wanted."
"Dom please don't do this." I shake my head, "I'm sorry, but I can't be with someone who doesn't trust me."
"I'll do whatever you want me to, please don't leave."He begged, "Whatever you need from me you can have."
"Melo I don't want to leave you, but I think we need to re-evaluate our relationship and see if we should really be together." I sniffle, "When you come back from Lithuania we can talk, but right now we're over."
"Well if that's what you want." He starts getting teary eyed. I hug him,"You do know that I still love you right?" We stay in each other's embrace, not wanting to end things.
"Yeah I know," he leans in kissing me one last time, "that's why I'm gonna wait for you. I'm gonna get my shit together and we're gonna be a happy family."
I didn't want to break up with Melo, especially now when I need him the most. But like I said, I can't be with someone who doesn't trust me, so until he works out his issues, we won't be together.

The Simulations
After ascending from his last life to become a Champion our hero has his memories locked. He is told that he must compete in competitive simulations against other Champions in order to earn enough to continue to simulate his consciousness. The competitive simulations have a variety of scenario genres, and may or may not have a game interface. The first competitive simulation our hero faces is from the Summoned Hero/Traveller to a New World genre, and is set as Fantasy Realistic - no game interface. He must ensure that the person he chose in the simulation's setup survives the end of the world in order to win. Author's note: I'm committing to one arc of four books. The arc has its own complete storyline. And each book has its own individual storyline as well. Each book also has 60 chapters, for a total commitment of 240 chapters. I'm aiming for a release schedule of a chapter every 23 hours.

Up In Space
New chapter every other day Iain Compton never planned to be abducted by an alien spaceship. It just… happened. And now he’s been awakened 22,000 years in the future and half a galaxy away by a pair of oddly human seeming beak nosed aliens and a space ship A.I. that seems to have more than a few screws loose. Oh, and then there's this gorgeous alien woman who he probably shouldn’t trust at all. His plan is to find a way home to Earth, even if its unlikely to be remotely the same; to find a better class of companions among an often strange and inexplicable galactic community, at least one who won’t use him or sell him out at the first opportunity; and to do something about the parasites in his brain who are supposed to connect him to a library the size of the galaxy, but seem to only be telling him that almost everyone and everything he comes across wants to kill him. But at least he can still send tweets.

A War Beyond Kings
Author: I made som mistakes early in the story that I will have to correct, but it will take some time. I have not abandoned this story, but I will be working on my computer and will not be active on royal road. "The elves start to leave their secure forest of Silvanwood for the first time in over two thousand years. Wizards are murdered in their own homes one by one to the dismay of the Jeidan Order of mages. The ancient ruins in Agnellia seem to have awoken after thousands of years of abandon. The flames of war are brewing, and the continent of Maëgor is about to witness a war like never seen before." Author’s note: This is a serious story, loosely inspired from many great works, which you will maybe be able to identify on your own. It is entirely original though. I’ll be working on this for hours every day, but that doesn’t necessarily means that there’ll be daily chapters. I don't own the rights to the cover image, and will immediatly take it down if the author requires so. Every chapter will be at least 2000 words. And congratulations to anyone who guesses on which language the chapter titles are written in.
