Chasing After My Wife Chapter 542
Advertisement
She was elated to finally knew that she would be able to have a tour around the place. It was one of the places that she wanted to visit since she was in high school but she was always busy with several stuff, putting on the trip on hold and totally forget it after many years. It would be a waste if she wouldn't have a proper tour in the place.
She swam for few minutes more, basked under the sun, chatted with her husband and ate different kinds of food. She did all these since she finally got an agreement for a tour with him. She was no longer upset.
After an hour, she put on her robe and wore her glasses. "Let's go back inside. It's getting hotter here."
"What time are we leaving for a tour?"
"Around one in the afternoon."
"Got it." Travis took hold of her hand and linked their fingers together. "What will you wear to go out by the way?"
Jillyanna stopped and her eyes went wide. "Oh shoot! I forgot! I totally forgot! Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
"I thought you considered it before proposing that condition to me."
She looked at him without saying anything. Travis also looked back without saying anything. He wanted to find out how long she can last without asking him for help.
"What are they doing? I thought they made up already. Are they still fighting?" one of the soldiers asked his comrades.
"I don't think so. They looked to be fighting but their eyes held love and care."
"How the hell did you see that? "
"It's none of your business. A single man like you won't understand it."
"Tsk! I'm starting to despise couples now."

"That's a problem with singles."
"Shut up!"
Travis and Jillyanna didn't know that the soldiers were talking about them and they were still staring at each other. Travis blinked his eyes and smiled. "I'm giving up. I'll shop some clothes for you."
"How do you plan to do that?"
"I'm buying it online."
"I see. I thought you will leave me and go somewhere to buy it."
Travis pulled her close and wrapped his arm around her waist. "I would never do that. This is not our house and you would never want me to leave your side as well, right?"
"Yup. My husband knows me best."
"Of course." Travis kissed her temple as they continued to walk back to the elevator, back to their hotel room. Travis pulled out a shirt from his clothes and underwear from her things while Jillyanna was taking a shower to rinse the chlorinated water off of her body.
She didn't have any decent clothes to wear outside and she didn't want to wear those kinds of lingerie around him either. She would awaken a certain beast and she would be the one and only victim that he would ravage. It would be troublesome if that happens.
While she was inside the shower room, Travis looked for malls around the place that offers delivery in an instant. He wasn't planning to order that many clothes for her or else, he wouldn't be able to enjoy the view of his wife wearing the lingerie in her closet.
He ordered a black denim shorts that has a crisscrossed silk ribbon design on the sides, a white spaghetti strapped top with a blue butterfly embroidered on the center of the chest, and a white high cut shoes to pair with it. He paid extra amount to have it delivered within an hour.

When Jillyanna came out of the shower room, she put on the clothes that Travis chose for her while waiting for the clothes that he ordered. It was the third time that they bought clothes in a whim and it was all because of her. Last time, she was able to chose her clothes, this time, she had no idea what he bought but she trusted him.
"Let's watch a movie while waiting?" Travis suggested while turning on the smart TV. "What do you want to watch?"
"You choose. I don't really have anything in mind."
"Okay." A grin emerged from his lips as he chose from the set of movies provided as default by the hotel. There were horror movies, comedy, drama and some erotic movies on the lists. Since he was the one who was tasked to choose, of course, he will choose something sexy and hot. Jillyanna didn't know what he was choosing since she was drying her hair and had her back facing him. "Let me dry your hair." Travis offered as he took the towel, hair brush and dryer from her.
Jillyanna took a plush cushion pillow, placed it on the carpeted floor and sat on it while Traviis sat on the couch behind her. The movie was playing in front of them and she was watching it with intent focus. It looked interesting and there was a bit of dram added into it. It was a story of a man who fell in love with a woman who saved his life. After making sure that he was out of danger, he disappeared in his life. When they met again, he did his best to make sure that she won't escape from him. He had done all he could to be gentle, to be kind, to be honest and to love her with all he got.
"This movie is quite nice. I didn't know you were into this dramatic type of movie." Jillyanna commented while she leaned her head on his lap.
"I didn't know that this is a drama." Travis responded. He was starting to doubt his choice now.
The movie continued and Jillyanna continued to watch it, too. After almost half an hour, her hair was almost dried and the scene that Travis waited the most has finally come. It was the scene where the man and woman made love, the scene that would embarrass Jillyanna the most.
"Why did you choose this?!"

The Undead Revolution
This was my first attempt at writing a story, in hiatus indefinitely. This story follows Silvy, half-elf, a rare race despised by both humans and elves. Having never met her father, the first years of her life were spent together with her mother, who had to leave her native village because of the blasphemy she had committed by giving birth to Silvy. At the age of eight, Silvy became an orphan and was left to fend for herself. Her mother had died of illness, Silvy’s life turning upside down: the child went from living in a modest but cozy home with poor but daily meals to live outside the walls in the slums, where crime was commonplace and food was scarce. Luck had yet to abandon her completely though, because a group of orphans like Silvy decided to help, integrating her into their group and teaching the tricks of the trade; that is, stealing and swindling. But fate had not yet finished playing with her. Kidnapped and frightened, her life will turn upside down again when she awakens as undead, but still able to think clearly.

Apollyon's Curse
Within the pages of folklore and fantasy, tales of people who chase after the dream of eternity, of living forever, rarely find a happy ending. They are either struck by the grim truth of reality, give up, and return to mortality or face a ghastly realization of their wishes. The latter often the worse fate, as they come to realize, only far too late, that what they sacrificed was worth far more than the time they gained. Ultimately, the common thread in these stories is that “immortality is as much a curse as it is a blessing”. People either realize it early and give up or are doomed to inevitably face its consequences. In the world Enrich lives in, that saying does hold merit. Every pathway towards eternal life has shackles of its own. They bring those high above down to the ground, evening the playing field. It is thanks to these fundamental laws that ambitious mortals are able to defy the heavens and achieve immortality themselves. The variety of methods result in each of these bindings varying in intensity and degree of freedom. Enrich’s path doesn't break this trend. Though, after what he did to himself, most wouldn’t even consider him a living thing anymore. On the day of his ascension, a world’s worth of souls were melted and recast. On that day, the human’s path had reached its conclusion, recast into Apollyon. An artifact, a weapon, is eternal, after all. As for the curse? The payment will be made, as it must. So why not offload the curse to someone else? Mortals throw their lives away for all manner of petty reasons, noble or otherwise, especially in desperation. Eventually, someone will be willing to foot the bill. Most will if given the chance. The bait is far too tempting, after all. Power, status, knowledge. All at their fingertips. If only they say “yes”. And Apollyon is very willing to help any lost souls. If they give up everything in return, of course.

The Designated: Out of Control
It happened quicker than anyone would have imagined. Multiple hurricanes were one thing. People had dealt with that in the past. But, like kids playing dominoes, one thing crashed into another. Areas affected by hurricanes needed resources all along the Gulf and East Coasts drew rescuers and resources away from other parts of the country. When wildfires lit up the Pacific coast and mid-west, those areas were already understaffed. Driven by hurricanes in the Pacific basin, uncontrolled wildfires burned through towns, destroying everything in their paths. Across the Pacific, Asia didn't escape. From the Philippines, across China, into Indochina, and Bangladesh and India. Typhoons and cyclones pounded the coasts and far inland. Widespread flooding forced millions from their homes and across international borders. Mexico was hit hard and thousands died in mudslides as Katia slammed into their East Coast. The refugees fled north and west. Rumours started that hundreds of thousands were headed for the US border. Instead of running out of steam in the southern US, several hurricanes tore up the eastern seaboard, devastating cities and renewing their strength before veering east across the Atlantic. Maria and Ophelia veered east and slammed into Europe, reaching as far as the Netherlands and Russia before finally dissipating. After that, too many weather stations were offline to provide any form of co-ordinated information or warnings. Wildfires in Portugal burned ahead of the storms, fanned by hurricane winds. They sparked wildfires leapfrogging across Europe, beyond any one country's ability to cope. Already uneasy from multiple terrorist attacks over the summer, anti-refugee groups seized the opportunity to stage protests across Europe. Some turned violent as they clashed with police forces. Several governments declared martial law to quell the rioting and enforce evacuations along the path of the storms. Rumour and speculation overwhelmed facts. Unrest spilled over into widespread violence. Then sickness broke out in the displaced populations. Within a matter of a dozen weeks, tens of millions died. In the coming winter months hundreds more would follow. The Designated Project was activated.
