CASSIDY P.O.V.
"Arianna..." i whined for the hundreth time.
"Come on, your going to come whether you like it or not" she said, serious.
"But i dont wanna-" i said. "Leave Isaiah" she finished my sentence.
"School" she said throwing a gift bag at me. I opened it and it contained a beautiful gown that was slit to show one of my legs. It was beautiful and I was bawling at how Arianna thought of me while she was shopping. I hugged her so hard."its all I can afford" she added and I thanked her so much.
"Put on the dress, come on were going to prom" she cheered.

I looked pretty hot with some light pink eyeshadow blending in with the white, and some red lipstick. I didn't even know that was me in the mirror. I had curves!! Omgzz... Arianna changed real quick finishing her makeup.
" leygo" she said ghetto while we got in her moms car. The prom was decorated in a hall and it was packed with people. I guess thats what you get for opening it to everyone under the age of 19.
"Hey you have a date right?" She asked and I looked at her with a really look. Her and her date left to the dance floor while I was sitting at the losers table which was pretty fun actually. We started playing cards and then once someone put money in it. Shit got serious.
"Cassidy?" I heard someone say behind me, but I wave them off.
"Unless you wanna fit in, its not gonna be with them" I heard the someone speak again and everyone went quiet.
"Jerk....these are my family and this is where I fit in. You can go with your lame ass dickheads group" I said standing up for my people looking in back of me to who the jerks voice was. I looked and it was Zach laughing his ass off(he was playing with me) so I gave him an evil smile.

"Cassidy?" I heard another voice said behind me. It was Ayden, god why do we all go to the same school. He look handsome in his suit, wearing a blue tie brought his eye color out more.
"Would you dance with me Ms.Winters?" He asked and I took his hand. He placed his hands on my waist and I placed mine on his shoulders, not comfortable to wrap around his neck yet.
"How's the baby?" He asked sweetly smiling at me.
" Handsome like his father, smiley like his beautiful mother, and healthy" I said smiling because Isaiah was really something.
"Definitely beautiful, gorgeous and perfect like his mother" he said "I'm sorry" he added.
"No don't do that" I said looking at him.
" I'm stupid but I need you in my life, by my side-" he was cut off by Zach.
"How do you say that thing when you ask someone to dance when there with another person?" He asked thinking.
"May I cut in?" He said finding out and Ayden hesitated but then he handed me with him. He looked at me like he had more to say.
"Did I happen to say I'm sorry" he said. What's up with these guys apologizing now. I've been happy being a mother and still a teen for the past week without them.
"I was drunk, I'm stupid and I decided that I'm moving out to go live with my aunt and make a life for me to go to college and get a degree in something involve with photography" he said smiling thinking about his future plans. I was so excited for him, hugging him, jumping up and down in his arms just grateful that he's leaving his past.
"I love you--r ...your thinking " I said and I was freaking out inside and screaming at myself of why I almost said it. Omg I feel like an idiot. He's getting his life together and I had to interfere by saying almost three words. I look down embarrass.

" Thank you Cass" he said resting his head in the crook of my neck. I close my eyes taking in his scent and how comfortable I felt right now. I open my eyes and I saw Ayden look at Zach with hatred but turned that into guilt. Then he looked at me with guilt and hurt, he suddenly turn and left. That's when I knew that I needed to let go of Zachary and be with Ayden. I need not to be selfish, and he's my baby father. He needs me.
I let go of Zach and said "hope you reach your goals and have a family who supports your every decision in life. I love you but I have to let you go, goodbye Zach see you soon". Walking away with tears in my eyes, I let go and walked all the way to where my Isaiah and Ayden would be....home.

Summon Imp!
Travel with a newly born demon as he grows and learns in his own world as well as in other worlds as he gets summoned again and again. Usually to die or kill for others in strange and exciting places, but it's never certain what the next one will bring. It has its perks. With each new world comes a new story with new experiences and new lessons. There is always more to see, more to learn and more to know. Maybe, someday, it will all make sense. For now he will just work hard to become stronger, to be useful and, hopefully, survive that way. A coming-of-age story, but different. Things start to slow down to a crawl. Colors blur into one another until my vision is completely white. All I can think is "Shit, not this again!" I hate being summoned. _________________________________ updates once a week until I get more time The idea for this story began in two places. One was the ridiculously rapid pace of gaining power in many novels. Both in games and in novels, I enjoy the struggle of the beginning character, why always the rush? The other was the way many monster or non-human MCs always seem to hurry to become human (again). It always felt like a cheap way to grant the character extra powers without the difficulty of writing a non-standard thought process. Thus I wanted to write the slow(ish) progression of a monster character gaining strength and intelligence, while remaining distinctly non-human. There are no stats, xp or systems, no reincarnated soul or completely formed being to start with - unless I want to make fun of those. While the MC 'evolves', the process takes months if not years to proceed step by little step. Sit down with me and imagine, what would it be like if...
8 169Heart of Cultivation
Book one is now available for purchase or download through Kindle Unlimited! Jian was a prodigy, at least until he discovered that his path of cultivation had hit a dead end almost as soon as it began. That was all years ago, though. He has long since resigned himself to his fate and prepared himself for a dull, ordinary, but happy life. Stunted cultivation or no, he's clever enough to carve out his own comfortable niche. Unfortunately, not all of the matters from his past have been settled. When a reckless mistake threatens to cost him everything, Jian will have to prove that he's desperate enough to rise to the occasion. Or that he's capable of avoiding the consequences. This is an affectionate reconstruction of the xianxia genre. I will be deploying the tropes from the genre that I enjoy in a framework that I think makes sense. The story updates on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes other days.
8 93The Man With RPG
Just a guy minding his own business but then tragedy struck. Sent back in time thirteen years in the past, he relived his school days not without a partner in crime. A system in his head, he thought he was crazy but it was real, but a bigger surprise waited for him. The past didn't seem like the past that he knew. A past with heroes and villains running around in the world with each day world-ending events kept on happening. What should he do? Turn into a hero or be the bad guy? Better yet should he be just a bystander and mind his own damn business? Well, we'll see.

Re: Apocalypse game now has a Webtoon adaptation!Aliens have invaded our world. A hundred metallic flying saucers covered the skies of the world’s largest cities, forcing 10 million humans each year to play their absurd VR ‘apocalyptic games’. [Entering game, round four...][Human vs. Bio Mutation][Main Mission: Survive for 7 days] Humanity was forced to survive a series of different apocalypse scenarios: Ice age, Nuclear Fallout, AI Meltdown, Apex predators, etc. all for one promise: [Defeat all rounds and we will leave your world in peace] Every year, the whole world would watch the games in terror as their loved ones suffered and died, with less than 1% managing to return. After 8 years, Alan D. Angello and his team, humanity’s greatest hope, were also defeated. When all hope was lost, Alan was reincarnated 3 years before he joined the games. Will Alan be able to make a difference this time? ##### This is my fifth Novel, hopefully, this one will show all my experience after writing for 2 years. Its VR + Squid games + Apocalypse moviesIf you like any of those you will like this oneCheck out the movie trailer to give a teaser of the novel. Click link below Re: Apocalypse Games Teaser Trailer
