《Purchased Wife》Chapter 32: Numbing The Pain
Advertisement
Liam was laying down on his bed, his mind wouldn't stop working. And it was only her he was thinking about. Only her.
He sighed loudly and got up. Walking, down the stairs, and saw the light above the kitchen island turned on. Emily was sitting on one of the high chairs. He walked to her and he looked at him with a wide smile while she took a sip from the mug in her hand.
He gave her a confused look. He took the mug and smelled it. It was alcohol. He sighed and asked, "What are you doing?"
"You told me to numb the pain."
She took the mug from him"So, I'm numbing the pain."
Before she could take a sip, he took the mug away and said: "You know well that I didn't mean that." She tilted her head, squinting her eyes: "What did you mean, Liam Knight?" He gave her a disappointed look and said"I'll tell you in the morning. When you're sober. Let's go to bed."
He held her forearm but she yanked it back and said through her gritted teeth"You need to stop telling me what to do. Everyone needs to stop telling me what to do. I'm not a child."
"Well, you're acting like one, Emily."
She let out air through her nose and said"Fine after I finish my drink." Liam took the mug he had in his hand and dropped the alcohol in the sink in front of her. He walked back to her and said"Drink finish. Let's go."
"No!"
"What did you say?"
"I said NO!"
"Em.."
"NOOOOOOOOOO. I'm not going to bed."
She got up from her chair and went to the sink. Bent down and took a bottle of half-filled alcohol. She opened the lid and started drinking directly.
He held the bridge of his nose and said: "Don't make me force you." She smiled and challenged him"I'd like to see you try." Her bottom lips between her teeth. Like she was being turned on by something.... or someone.
Whenever he walked to her, she'd run from her spot with the bottle still in her hand. Every time he tried to catch her she let out a scream and a giggle. Running away from his reach.

She was getting on his nerves. He grabbed ahold of the bottle with his one hand. But she pulled it back. He said"GIVE. ME. THE. DAMN.BOTTLE!" and pulled it with a hard force. She let go of the bottle making him fall on the floor. His eyes widened. The bottle broke on the floor. Far away from their reach. She started laughing out loud. Looking at his face. His eyebrows furrowed as he was still lying on the floor and she started laughing louder. He looked at her like she was a crazy person. A smile spread across his face as he heard her laugh for the first time.
Her eyes closed as she held her stomach, laughing nonstop.
He looked at her and said, "That's enough fun for one day." Before he could get up, she straddled him. She sat on his stomach, her legs on his sides.
"Very childish... get off."
She giggled"Nope." popping the P.
"Emily get off."
A hint of playfulness was in her eyes and he loved that.
She said, "Say please first."
"Emily please get off."
"Nope."
He picked up his upper body and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Before she could fall back, he wrapped his arms around her waist. She looked at him with adoration as she said"You're really pretty" He raised his brows at her and asked, "Did you just called me pretty?" She giggled and replied"Yes." She leaned and kissed him on the corner of his lips and said"Really pretty."
She removed a strand of his hair from his forehead. He gazed at her as she said"Your eyes... they're just so perfect. So blue. Reminds me of an ocean under the sunlight."
Truth be told, Liam was enjoying drunk Emily.
She titled her head and strands of hair covered her eyes. She tried to blow them away from her face but was unsuccessful. With his fingers, he lightly pushed her hair behind her ear and she just smiled at him.
She leaned down, leaving a kiss on his neck and wrapping her arms around him. Nuzzling her face in his neck. Resting her temple on his shoulders and whispered"Absolutely gorgeous." He smiled to himself and said"Let's get you to bed. Okay?" She nodded her head in his neck.

He got up from the floor and she wrapped her legs around his waist. His hands-on the back of her thighs to keep her from falling.
He walked upstairs and into her room. He set her on her bed and tucked her in her duvet. He smiled at her and said"Sleep well. Cause you're in trouble tomorrow. She grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him to herself. Kissing him lightly. She let go and said with her eyes closed"Good night."
He left the room without saying or doing anything.
He walked into his bedroom and right in the bathroom. He looked himself in the mirror. The feeling of her kiss still lingering on his lips. He whispered to himself"She's messing with my head."
He took off his clothes and hopped in the cold shower. Calming his heated body from her kiss.
He put on black sweatpants and made his way out to his room, went into his closet to get himself a shirt.
When he turned around, she was sitting on his bed.
Her clothes changed. She was wearing his zip-up hoodie. Her smooth scarred tan legs crossed on the other. He asked"What're you doing here? Is that my hoodie?" She smiled and nodded her head. He pointed to the door: "Emily, please go sleep in your room." She got up and walked to him slowly.
A smile on her face as she held the zipper of his hoodie and slowly slide it down till the end. Taking the hoody off her shoulders as she wore black lingerie. She walked closer to him and stopped till her chest touched his. His eyes on her face. Not moving down as he said a low voice"Emily you're drunk." She said in a soft voice" I know."
"Why're you doing this?"
She shrugged and said, "Well that kiss made me want more."
She trailed her fingers, a fine line from his chest to his torso.
With only a finger of her each hand, she trailed her nails on his V-line and he shivered under her touch. Not once his eyes traveled to her body. She cupped his face with her hands. His expression still blank and she said"Take me, Liam. Right here. Right now."
He looked at her arms and her marks weren't covered. He looked down at her body and her scars were exposed. Which she never liked. With her fingers under his chin, she guided him to look at her. Without breaking eye contact, he bent down, sliding his hand on the back of her thigh and picked her up.
He lied her on his bed, his waist between her legs.
She heard the sound of the zipper and realized that he had zipped up her hoodie and said"Sleep, Emily."
It wasn't easy for him to fight the temptation but he did.
He moved and lied down next to her, shirtless.
She trailed a pattern on his chest with her fingers and said: "We could be doing so many things now." He removed her hand and lied her back on the other pillow, covering her naked legs with his duvet and said"Goodnight, Emily." She smiled at him and closed her eyes.
He lied back on his side. His left hand under his head and his right hand rested on his chest. He looked to his left and saw her sleeping. He closed his eyes too.
And then felt the warmth against his body. He opened his eyes and saw her head lying on his chest as she wrapped her arm around his torso.
He let out a sigh in annoyance and closed his eyes again. He heard her say"Not comfortable." She straddled him but before he could say anything, she covered herself and him with a duvet while being on him. Her legs resting on each side.
She lied on his chest, her hands behind his shoulders as she nuzzled her face in his neck. Kissing him below his jawline.
She looked at him because she didn't felt his arms around her. He looked at her in confusion. Kissing on his cheek, she wrapped his arms around her waist by herself, and then went back to lying on her previous position.
Not even a second passed when she was finally asleep. Her left hand on his chest. He held her hand and turned it around. He saw something peeking out from her sleeve. He pushed the sleeve to her forearm. He saw two cuts.
She nuzzled in his neck more and he wrapped his arms around her tightly.

The Atropos Schema
Book 1 is now complete! NOTE: I'm adding the "Traumatising Content" tag because important characters are mind-controlled in this story. If you dislike reading about mind control, then this story is not for you. Summary: Tutorials. Monster invasions. Fantasy towns in a post-apocalyptic world. Follow Jarek Novak as he fights for survival with the “help” of his personal A.I. “To recap,” I said, trying to ignore my growing headache. “I have a mind-controlling parasite in my brain. The Atropos Schema is facilitating the destruction of my world as I know it, and if it discovers this parasite, then I’m as good as dead. Currently, my world is being overrun by monsters and soon other sapient species will fight for control over my world—unless they already control my world from the shadows.” Samantha said.

Hail the King
When the common folk hear of the Hell King, they think of many different things"It is the king of monsters!" "A calamity unfolded that knows nothing but destruction" "The true pinnacle of hatred and wrath." "A savage demon that eats children" "It's no doubt the king of despair as well as every child's bed monster." However, when you ask those scholars of ages long past, they will answer "It is one of the many riddles of life, one that no man has yet solved." "It is a great question, one so great that you shouldn't ask." "I honestly don't know." "Truly child? Since youth have I dreamed of meeting it, and you expect me to fullfill such a task in my lifetime?" "Nobody truly has any evidence it is evil, yet at the mere mention of the name I tremble in fear." One thing is for sure. Nobody truly knows who said Hell King really is. Not the greatest of cultivators, the grandest of swordsmen nor the wisest of sages. Nobody even knows where the stories of the Hell King come from, and yet everybody knows them. This is a story about a broken man, a man cursed by the heavens, an enigma to the whole world, a ruler of a dead kingdom and a monster born out of despair. "I wish not for women, I wish not for gold nor do I wish for happiness. All I wish for is to be granted eternal rest."

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
