《Hybrids | BTS FF》Chapter Forty-Two

"Now you know our full stories, would you care to share yours?" Jin asks with a small smile. I look up at him, reciprocating his smile as I ask him, "what'd you like to know?"
"Why'd you continue with the HPS after you were attacked?"
"I had dreams growing up which put me off the idea of ever running my grandparents business. I'd always wanted to become a fashion designer, not a carer. When my grandparents passed, my parents took over the original HPS building, continuing it in their name.
I decided to build a new HPS after the other had closed because I wanted to do something for myself. After the attack, I realised that not all hybrids were bad, weirdly enough. I guess it was Solar who helped me find who I was because she saved me that night. She helped me to not lose myself...
I can't take all the credit because it was a joint effort between a big group of friends who just wanted people to come together and protect, heal, save."
"What about your dream for fashion designing?" Tae asks, confused. "Did you just abandon that dream?"
Sighing, I relax further back into my seat. "For the first few years, I took it up as a hobby. Every now and then I'd make clothes and blankets for the babies or children because that was what I was best at. I had to learn to do adult clothes because they were bigger and I was only really good at the smaller stuff because I didn't manage to finish my course. I don't regret changing my dreams for the HPS because I got to save lives everyday and see them flourish."
"What did your parents say?"
The question sparks sadness within me. My face falls down; smile drooping, eyes losing colour. "My parents didn't live long enough to know of my career change. I lost them at a pretty young age and I had to learn everything about hybrids from scratch...it was a hard thing to do, but I managed it with the right help."

"Do you regret anything?"
I looked over to Jimin who was practically curled over Yoongi's lap. "I don't regret a thing," I murmur softly with a gentle smile. "You have to experience different things and learn from them to become a better you. It can take a while, but you'll eventually get there. I know that I still have a lot to work out but I feel that with the right people around me, I'll be able to conquer anything."
"D-Do you regret taking us back?" Kook asks shyly.
"I'm not gonna lie...It hurt me a lot, the way you guys treated me. As soon as I saw you guys for the first time, I felt a connection that I just couldn't explain. It took some therapy to figure it out but it became too late. You ended up leaving me and I felt unwanted. It was a horrible feeling that really kicked me down. Bringing you guys back into my life has me scared...I don't want to be abandoned again or lose you for good. I felt happier when I saw you in bed with me this morning because it filled me with relief...relief that you hadn't left me and that I wasn't so alone anymore. I'm hoping that we can stay together and not be broken apart because of our pasts. I'm not telling you to forget them or to just suddenly like every human you meet. I'm just asking that you give us a go and that you can try to view some things more differently than you used to."
"A fresh start?" Yoongi asks curiously.
"Sort of, yes. We can begin again, together. Learn to love, together. Heal, together."

You World
You were web surfing on RoyalRoad, wondering about what kind of crap you will stumble across while you searched for your daily dose of stories, seemingly with nothing better to do in your life.

You waited for the page to load, then began reading the synopsis with maximum concentration. By now you are probably wondering why this novel is written in the 2nd person perspective and why the hell the narrative has suddenly changed from the past to the present tense – or what kind of weed this author smoked while writing this. While lost contemplating, an invisible force attacks your body, ripping your soul apart. Your body doesn’t feel anything but your conscious fades away as your precious soul is taken away from you, somewhere far and far away… [small hiatus - working on a more serious project :)] Tags: 18+ Mature, weird stuff, weird stuff, and even more weird stuff.

(DEMO) Colorless vol.1- Phantamoire Enigmata
This is a demo volume consisting only seven chapters. The sole reason of this publication is to show the world a glimpse of the project. Therefore, the final quality of the product will be lot more refined and polished. This demo might get deleted from RoyalRoad after the actual publication. Synopsis: "Knights wearing their shining armor serving righteous justice riding their glorious horses." We all have heard that story- Heroes who do the right in the purest way without any tampering. But, is it really that easy? Is the world and it's heroes really that pure? After all... fairytale is just a lie. I might be the first author in the world who despises writing. I haven't read any story books or novel in my entire life but children's story book (not even ten of them). So, why do I write? Simple answer- the story. Inexperienced I may be but I believe my project and it's quality. The actual story will be posted somewhere in 2019. The story will be devided into 7/8 volumes and 90 (approx.) chapters. I have been working on this project for 1 year now. It took me 5 months to finalize the concept and plot, 7 months for the story and it's already been 6 months in writing along with 2 times of total revamp.
