《Reason to this madness (Jay Halstead x reader)》I don't know much (27)
Advertisement
We had a glass of champagne in the limousine. Jay wouldn't tell me where we were actually going but something told me it was the restaurant we had agreed on. After driving for about 20 minutes we finally arrived.
"Wait 5 minutes before coming out...please." I could tell Jay was nervous as he got out of the car.
I looked around the car but the windows had now been covered. After what felt like forever there was a knock on the window before the car door opened. It was Will and he too was in a suit.
"Will?"
"Would you come with me please?" Will extended his arm out for me. He helped me out of the car. The limousine drove away and Will and I were now standing in front of an archway filled with flowers and fairy lights that created a pathway.
"Will what is going on?" I felt butterflies in my stomach.
"You'll see." He winked as we started walking down the pathway. It was quite a good distance and the twists and turns from the archway wouldn't let me see what was at the end of it.
Finally the pathway was finishing and I could start to see everyone from the firehouse, Chicago med, and pd. Deep down I knew what was going on but it was just too good to be real. Once we arrived at the end of the arched pathway Will walked away leaving me to walk the last stepping stones on my own.
At the end of them stood Jay whom I saw was on the verge of tears, along with over half of the people there. I made my way over to him.
"Jay? What's going on?" I had a massive smile plastered on my face.

"Baby, I think it's safe to say that our story has been a wild one. When we first met we certainly didn't start off on the right foot and I would say we've encountered more bumps in the road than most people do in their first year and a half of dating. But as soon as you walked into my life I understood why I didn't work out with anyone else." He stopped for a second and I could tell he was trying to fight back tears. "With simply watching you for a single minute I find 1000 new things to love about you." He took a deep breath. "I don't know much but this much I do...I want to spend the rest of my life with you y/n y/l/n. I want you to be the first person I see in the morning and the last one I see at night. I want to make a family with you, grow old with you." Jay got down on one knee and took a small white box out of his suit pocket. "Y/n y/l/n Will you marry me?" He asked as he opened the small box revealing a beautiful ring.
With tears streaming down my face and a knot in my throat keeping me from answering I gave him a big nod extending my hand so Jay could slip on the ring.
Jay stood back up and I lunged forward to hug him. For a moment it was just us, cherishing this perfect memory. We pulled out of a kiss and I heard cheering. I looked around at my friends, some wiping tears off their faces, all with smiles so bright. We walked over to them. The first ones to hug me were Shay and Gabby.
"I measured your finger at the hospital." Shay whispered in my ear while we were hugging making me laugh.

"I know it's a little early but I want you guys to be my maids of honor." I told them once we pulled out of the hug causing us all to break into tears again.

Later on that night Jay and I walked down the archway together. "You did it you know?"
"Did what?" He asked me.
I stopped and turned to face him. "You made this night perfect."
He leaned down to kiss me. "You know what?" He whispered.
"What?"
"I can't wait to introduce you as my fiancé." He whispered leaning down to kiss me again.

Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (Demonic LitRPG)
A LitRPG and Epic Fantasy adventure: The son of a mafia boss finds himself abruptly plunged into an alternate world where he must find a way to survive the horrors of a realm called Oblivion, make pacts with demons, form unnatural friendships, and figure out what the hell is going on – all while dealing with the depressing reality of his past. An artificial intelligence has ascended into godhood and has thrown Trey’s home into Chaos, pulling millions of people into an enchanted new life... or, in Trey's case, a violent nightmare. As far as he can tell, he is locked into what the system prompts call a ‘Death Game.’ Here, artificial reality is manufactured for the enjoyment of a being called the All Spirit, and he has a very real chance of truly dying. Just how real is this place though? Is it merely a simulation, a realistic game of life and death… or is it something much more? Elves, dwarves, undead, and other races only thought to exist in fairy tales are now a reality. Black magics, pantheons of gods at odds with one another, predatory symbiotes, and an unholy calling, the significance of which he has yet to grasp, are all entangled with his fate. ============================================ ============================================ Some things to expect when reading this book series: - Brutal storyline where no character is safe and choices have real consequences. Heavy on action, survival, and adventure - An isekai. The main character struggles to find himself, repeatedly crossing the line between good and evil as other important characters influence his life - Harem (explicit), though this only starts about 180k words in. - Good amounts of crafting, town building, and guild building later on - Good amounts of fantasy-related LitRPG stats, rank ups, and evolutions. Heavy focus on demons and black magics - There will be many points of view, but there is only one primary/main character that takes up 90% of the POV - A long storyline. Currently (as of 7/26/2021) I have about 1500k words written, though much of it will have to be heavily edited and re-written. I also plan to go far beyond 1500k words if people like the story (A lot of it is also in the 'backstories' book that explores the guildmates, the link is below) - Chapters will have an average of about 4k-5k words, a little longer than most other books on RR, though there will be exceptions for more and less. I just didn't like posting chapters that didn't feel complete, and 2k words often felt like too little. - If you like super-heroic and goody-goody characters, this story is not for you. ***Updated once a week***

WISH MOUNTAIN
I could give you a typical synopsis that you'll gloss over...or I could tell you the essence of what the story will be. Still with me? Great! Let's get to it... WISH MOUNTAIN is inspired by fairy tales and, in a way, animated Disney movies. The biggest inspiration of them all is Beauty and the Beast. Why? Because I love it and hate it at the same time. The thing I hate about the movie is how the villain, Gaston, never got a chance for redemption. The movie was all about what is on the inside that counts, right? Beast went from bad-to-good because Belle learned to love and care about him. Was Gaston not worth that same chance for redemption? Sure he was a bad person, but so bad that he couldn't also undergo the same kind of change for the better? It was this question that got me thinking... what would Gaston's redemption look like? What kind of story would that be? From this nugget an entire epic story unfolded that has both outgrown, but has never forgotten, that original inspiration. So what can you expect? In essence: something like an epic, adult-orientated Disney story, which is gloves-off when it comes to violence and character trauma. I'll be doing my best to write a story that is as close to a classic adventure fairy tale with real stakes and meaningful characters as I can. The story begins with two orphans; Amaryllis and Chicory, who are whisked away to the magical WISH MOUNTAIN, and are faced with fending for themselves all alone. This is a HUGE story that will take YEARS for me to finish. If you're ready for a journey to Wish Mountain, then Once Upon a Time begins with Chapter 1...

Lord of cauldrons
A man reincarnated to a world where cultivation ruled supreme. One were even practices like human cauldrons and dual cultivation was commonplace and a part of the culture. What was not commonplace was treating these cauldrons with any ounce of respect or affection. These cauldrons were like pills or potions to be used and consumed or thrown away. They were often just a stepping stone in one's immortal path. One man thought, "What if they were my immortal path." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My chinese knowledge is limited to wuxia/xianxia books and cultivator games and I will only follow it loosely, I have my own cultivation system which will be basis for this story The reason I am writing this is because I have yet to find a dual cultivation story that has something I really wanted to read. Using the 'cauldrons' like Pokémon and the 'cauldrons' being the main source of power. I will update this at a minimum of once per week.
