The Rise Of Nathalia Carter Chapter 765

Angelo's body froze for a second, then she turned and smiled at Drake, taking her hand back.
"You should say hello to me, do you, Miss Watts?"
It was just ordinary words, but Angelo felt that it sounded like a command. She felt annoyed by the way Drake delivered it.
"I don't want to talk with you," she complained inside. But Drake was the boss. Thinking of that, she could only give in.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Thorne. Nice to see you again," An awkward smile showed on her lovely face.
After that, she fled to the shooting studio. As soon as she got inside, she saw a familiar figure. But it was not Clarence.
"Hi, Angeline, this is the hero of the movie, Jeremy, the new star."
As Clarence's voice dropped, Jeremy turned around, smiling. But when he saw Angelo's face, he was surprised.
"Senior," he couldn't help calling out.
Angelo was stunned when she heard that. She didn't expect to shoot with the same partner after she came back to life.
Yes, she had shot with Jeremy, who played Jasper in the last movie. So, she kind of knew this boy.
But Angelo didn't forget her identity as Angeline, a new actress in showbiz, now. And Angeline had never acted with Jeremy.
Thinking of that, she looked around and then pointed to herself with a blank face, "Who are you talking with, Jeremy?"
Seeing Angelo like that, Jeremy then found that Angelo had no Adam's apple, and she dressed as a girl, so he was more puzzled.
"This is Angeline, Angelo's sister."
Drake's voice sounded at this time.
He had known that Jeremy was the hero of the movie, which was also one of the reasons he invested in it.
Everything develops rapidly at this time. The Thorne needed new people in showbiz to help with their further development.

"Hi, Mr. Thorne," greeted Jeremy, respectfully looking at Drake. He knew Drake's identity now. Thanks to Drake's help, he got this role. So, he respected him.
"Yeah." Drake nodded. Then he sat on a chair and picked up the newspaper, looking relaxed.
"Oh, you're the senior's sister. No wonder you look so alike."
The doubt in Jeremy's heart was solved. He gave a kind smile. He shot his first show with Angelo. Although they didn't finish shooting it, it had a great impact on his acting.
When he felt proud of his acting, he would think of Angelo, who motivated him to keep improving. And that was why he got the chance.
Almost every person got famous after acting in Clarence's movies. It was like a ladder to the red carpet.
"I hope we can work well. I am looking forward to a great result of this film,"
Angelo gave a genuine smile and reached out her hand. Jeremy hurriedly reached out to shake hands with her.
"So do I. Don't worry, I know you can act better, even though you're just an amateur," Jeremy added.
Angelo wanted to raise her eyebrow upon hearing the statement from Jeremy because, in her past life, she acted in several films and television series. Still, she restrains herself from answering further as she knew everyone thought she's Angeline. They looked at each other and smiled.
Witnessing the scene, Drake put down the newspaper, and his eyes looked cold.
"Angeline, you must have read the script yesterday. So, let's start shooting today. I'll guide you if there's something wrong. Then you can do more practice," said Clarence, with a smile.
Angelo nodded. The content of the script appeared in her mind.
When Angelo and Jeremy were in the right place, Clarence's voice sounded, "Action."

In this scene, the heroine had thrust down the tall building but was saved by the hero, and then she kissed the hero.
Everything went well until the kiss part. Somehow, Angelo was a little resistant.
"Stop."
The two stopped. Angelo looked at Clarence with sorry.
She had shot many kiss scenes, which were all very good. But why can't she do this now?
"Angeline, you did very well before, but the kiss part is not good. You have to let go."
"Yeah."
Angelo nodded.
Then she tried several times with Jeremy but all failed.
"Angeline, just let go. It's just a kiss."
"Yeah," replied Angelo, but still, she resisted it.
After trying several more times, she couldn't act to her normal level, which even made her doubt her acting.
Clarence couldn't do anything about it. He checked the time and said, "You can take a rest. We'll shoot later."
Hearing that, Angelo sat down, grabbed a bottle of water, and started to drink.
"It's said that when a girl falls in love with someone, she can't shoot the kiss part anymore," joked Jeremy with a smile.
Somehow, Angelo suddenly thought of her kissing Drake. She shook her head with a sad look. She didn't know why she couldn't do the kiss part well.
Drake, however, raised his eyebrows when he heard Jeremy. He put down the newspaper and said, "You can imagine him as me."
Angelo froze and then blushed. She hurriedly looked away and mumbled, "You wish!"
Jeremy was surprised when he saw that. Soon he seemed to understand something and smiled.
He looked at Drake and Angelo, thinking that they were indeed a good match.
"Are you ready? Let's try one more time," said Clarence.
Angelo put the water bottle aside and went to her place.
Looking at Jeremy, she suddenly thought of Drake's words.
"Just have a try," she thought and slowly closed her eyes.
Soon, she opened her eyes. There was a mischievous look on her face, but deep in her eyes, there was a touch of affection.
Quickly, she tiptoed up and kissed Jeremy on his lips, then she turned and ran away, leaving Jeremy staying there.
"Stop. Good!" said Clarence with a satisfied look.
It was just the scene he imagined.
"It's perfect. You've made great progress, Angeline," complimented Clarence.
Hearing that, Angelo smiled and looked at Drake with a pair of complicated eyes.
Noticing her gaze, Drake thought of something, and his face looked much better. Seeing that, Angelo hurriedly withdrew her gaze.

The Harrowbird's Crown
(Formerly: Tales of a Harrowed House) Synopsis: This is the tale of an exiled royal family who, after their bloody reunion on the island of Providence, return to a war-torn homeland where once more, powerful forces pit sibling against sibling in a bid for the crown — and once more, the magical streets of Auctor echo their infamous motto: “Fire will Reign as Harrowbirds Soar!” From his humble beginnings as a shoemaker’s son, his year spent as a daringly brazen orphan caught between rivaling Houses and a mad ghost, and his fight for the crown after his return to Auctor, Corbyn faces a coming-of-age story unlike any before him as he discovers magic and birthright are two things he never knew he had. From the intimate narrative of a childhood that was never her own, her year spent struggling to find the person she is rather than the person her family needs her to be, the secrets she hides, and the truths she finds, Halle discovers herself on the fabled island of Providence as her House collapses around her, bids to enter a legendary school of magic in her homeland of Auctor, and fights for a crown she never knew she wanted. A high-action, character-focused story written with a poet’s styling, The Harrowbird’s Crown is a tale that will transport readers into the conflict and conquest of a royal family back on the rise.

Chapters are usually between 2.5-3.5 thousand words (though some, like the first and second chapters, can run up to 5k words).

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.
