“Welcome to the hotel, sir and ma’am. He said looking at Jacob then me. I just nod at him.
While Jacob was talking to that man, who I guess is the manager, I started admiring the hotel. I’ve never came in such a big one before. Even though I only came to hotels for work, never once in my life I ever saw such a big one. Big was an understatement, I would say it was HUGE. There were a lot of lights in the hall causing the room to shine. The walls were cream and the ceiling was white with big chandeliers hanging. At the middle of the room, there was a big staircase leading to I don’t know where. People could sit on the red sofas which were available and it had gold poles. This hotel is so…
“Mia what are you doing?” He murmured to me. I was interrupted by the famous Jacob.
“What?” I snapped at him.
He looked down and I followed his gaze. I was holding his hand.
“Oh I'm sorry. I guess I was so excited.” I told him while removing my hand.
His lips turned into a smirk showing that he was amused by my childish act but he said nothing and continued to talk to the manager.
“Stupid Jacob,” I murmured under my breath.
“Did you say something?” He turned and asked me.
My eyes widened with fear and I stuttered while answering him:
“Uh...uh no” I denied.

He again continued to talk with the manager and then he took out his wallet and took out a card which I guess is his credit card.
At last, I thought.
“Mia, we have some problem.” Jacob told me. I waited for him to elaborate.
“There's only one room which is available and....”
“What? I won't share a room with you!”
He took a step forward and said with that stupid smirk on his face:
“You want to share the room with me?”
I took a step back and replied with disgust: “No”.
“Great! As there is only one room, the manager has offered us to rent the penthouse as it is empty. And I guess it is more practical than to share the room. What say?”
I put my finger on my chin and pretended to think. I did that to annoy him and I think I succeeded as he said in an annoying voice:
“C'mon Mia, what's there to think?”
“Okay then”, I replied.
The manager came back with Jacob's credit card and our key cards; one for me and the other one for Jacob. I did not even notice him leaving.
“Enjoy your stay in our hotel,” He said to us.
“We said ‘thanks’ and went in the direction of the private elevator.
We went in and Jacob pressed the button of the penthouse. And we rode silently. The lift was a transparent one.
“You know, you can see people but they can’t see you.” Jacob said.
“False.” I said back to him.
“Try waving at this man. He is looking at the lift right now.” He said before gesturing to a man on the stairs next us.
I waved at him and the man waved back at me. OMG! I was right. We can see each other. Jacob’s laughter made me turn to him and I glared at him. How dare he?

“Stupid why did I believe you? I should have known.” I said hitting him on his shoulder.
“Oh my god it was so funny. I didn’t think you would actually do it.” He said still laughing at my stupidity.
I looked back at the man and saw that he was still looking at our direction except that we were a bit far away from him.
“It’s okay at least the man was sexy.” I said gesturing to the man. This stopped Jacob’s laughter and he just stood there looking at the buttons of the lift. When the lift stopped, Jacob went in front of the door and I followed behind quietly thinking about what was Jacob’s problem. Jacob took out his key card and opened the door for us.
“Are you sure you are in the right room?” I asked him after seeing my surrounding.
“Yes Mia; go inside, and choose whichever room you want. I'll be right back.” He said before going away.
“Okay.” I said rubbing my hands together. “This would be fun.”
I examined each and every room and finally I chose the blue one. The walls were painted in four different types of blue. There was a king-sized bed in the middle with gold pillows; my favorite. The curtains were also gold with a small lace of blue at the bottom. There was a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom.
Lovely!
I opened my suitcase and swore when I saw the clothes that Jordan bought for me. Is that girl mad? Doesn’t she know what to pack for a business woman going on a business trip? How could she? She packed short shorts, sandals, heels, flip flops, dresses. I opened another suitcase; the small one. OMG! There were bras, panties, bikinis not to forget nighties, all kind of them. But they are very provocative. I thought.
I found a note in one of the make-up bags.
Dear Mia,
I know you have opened your suitcase and saw your clothes. C'mon don't be angry.
I laugh at this. She knows me so well. I continued to read her letter.
Anyway have fun but don't make me an aunty. I'm too young.
I was now rolling on the floor laughing, literally.
There's a small packet in your bag left side. Don't forget to use them. Byes see you. Oh call me.
Love XOXO
Jordan.

The Sorcerer
This is a fanfiction based on Harry Potter, written by JK Rowling. BEFORE YOU LEAVE, as fan fiction isn't what royal road is known for unless your book is called Borne of Caution, hear me out. This is based 200 years into the future. Hogwarts will be very different, and besides some references, we will follow no characters from the book. In my opinion, this is more of a new, mature, and more realistic version of that universe. If we want to put an analogy to it, I'm borrowing the house, but it's my furniture and things on the inside. Synopsis - 200 years since the battle of Hogwarts. The muggles know - magic is no longer a secret. Wizards and witches show their magical traits much later in life now, their powers weaker than previous generations... and to make matters worse, there is a steady decline in the wizarding population. Follow along as Lux, a muggle-born, shows the world what one determined young wizard can do.

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.
