《Salted Shores》Dr. French
Advertisement
Dr. French called up his caretaker and the police on February 2nd. He had purchased all his Maine property on a recommendation from another doctor 20 years ago. It was a steal compared to today's prices and now his best destination for retirement. The place that kept him going back to run the hospital every day at his important job.
He had a vivid imagination and filled it with plans for summer parties, nothing-fancy wine and cigars by the ocean, day trips to the marina, and the newly modernized golf course that still managed to be nothing-fancy. The fresh lobster he would be putting in his mouth moments after it had taken a dip in a bowl of hot butter. Now, things are becoming fancy.
He needed to make sure everything was under control. He had four years left to go, and he wasn't about to let his grand old nest egg be jeopardized. The caretaker had become too decrepit for his job, and so he was demoted into doing whatever unnecessary small tasks he felt like taking on around the property as a reward for years of service.
The new caretaker was an ex United States Navy Seal. A man who had become too damaged from combat to be able to form close relationships with others. He would live alone in the guest house. Fully disciplined in the art of living off the land in any tundra, he would chop the wood for the big stone fireplace, hunt game year-round, grow food in the gardens, and fish a five-trap license out of Dr. French's small boat. Now the Dr. had full time access to fresh fancy lobsters.
"I hope you've found my estate sufficiently accommodating," French said over video chat.
"Yes Sir" said his henchman as he stood behind a fresh pile of chopped spruce tossed in a pile next to the guest outhouse.

Tales of the Implock - A LitRPG Monster Evolution Story
Nyx - A demon, weak and small, too fleeting of a creature to survive the infernal wastes in which he was born - but after multiple brushes with death, the otherwise inconsequential demon experiences a destiny-changing encounter with an unknown and eccentric god, foreign to this world. Cast from the domains of old and conspiring gods to a land of which is sheltered from the divine, beyond the reach of whence they scheme, the impling who soon would come to be known far and wide as Nyx will find a new purpose. Born of Pride, with the fires of ambition fanned and burning deep within, Nyx will grow, learn, and evolve. From a weak and pathetic impling, to that of a mighty arch demon of untold demonic power, nothing would stand in the way of his ascent. Yet, the yearn of power might not be the only thing the power-manic demon will come to desire as he will encounter others who might just matter as much to him as the ecstasy of power does. [Info]This story features a wide breadth of characters with unconventional views, morals, and actions. There is no black and white - there is only grey. In a world where strength rules, notions of good and evil blur. The protagonist of this story is not a hero. He is not human. He is a megalomaniac demon trying to find his place in the world of which he has been discarded. This novel is my first crack at making something serious, a piece of work I can be proud of. It is a part of a bigger universe that I am creating, The Aethos, and I fully intend for this story to be professionally edited, then self-published on Amazon. The novel will continue on for a long adventure, as each arc will be made into a proper book. Therefore I heavily encourage feedback and interaction. Anything to improve my story and my writing is greatly appreciated. Thank you, and welcome to the Aethos. [Schedule] - Five chapters a week. [Discord] - Here

With You [Cannon Kuroo x reader]
You are a manager for the Karasuno the volleyball team, along with Kiyoko. When you met the captain of the Nekoma, Kuroo Tetsuro, at a practice game, life became more interesting. Read to see what happens when you two meet again at a training camp.(Absolutely no angst because only happy thoughts. Cannon Kuroo, because fandom Kuroo is sorta toxic. Please read, comment, share, and vote for no reason.)P.S: Y/N does not play a sport, not at all. (The reason why is that I hate sports and I've seen to much of the sporty girl x Kuroo. I wanted something different and everyone seems to think that Y/N is a fit person with some attitude, especially with those Kuroo x readers. I wanted Y/N to be normal and nice with no attitude and no sass. Thanks for listening to me rant. Oh and sorry if you're fit this fanfic works for you too and you're beautiful too.)
