《The Forsakens》This Time Really Hot Spring
Advertisement
Olga recovered her towel and covered herself. Things really happened too fast to comprehend.
The old lady: "Ethan, this girl is a flasher. Don't bring that kind of bride to me."
Kepyun: "I am not Ethan, grandma."
The old lady: "If I am your grandma then you are Ethan."
Olga: "Hey old hag, who do you think you are calling flasher? I am already angry right now, don't force my hand here!"
The old lady whispered to the ear of Kepyun again: "She is wild, at least I liked that part unlike your passed away father and mother."
Kepyun gave up speaking with both of them instead tried to wake Sakar up. Sakar was unconscious on the ground with a stupid drooling expression but it also looked like someone who has fulfilled the goal in life. A peaceful daze.
Kepyun: "He doesn't wake up, Olga!"
Olga: "So? Why are you telling me?"
Kepyun: "It is your fault that he fainted. Wake him up."
Olga: "If you can't wake him up, how am I supposed to?"
Kepyun: "Don't play the ignorant. I know you have a way to wake him up."
Olga sighed: "OK. I will wake him up."
"My towel is about to drop again."
Sakar: "Where? When?"
Kepyun: "Since you are awake, let's go to the hot spring. I once heard that hot springs are good for muscles."
Sakar: "The towel?"
Kepyun: "She was lying to wake you up."
Sakar: "But my sexar is still tingling."
Olga fearfully: "Really?"
The old lady: "Ethan, what are they speaking about?"
Kepyun: "Sakar claims to have a sense that sense sexiness around and predicts near future sexy events."
Olga: "Why are you answering when he is speaking to someone named Ethan, Kepyun?"
Sakar: "It is coming! Beware!"

Olga: "AHHH! WHAT IS COMING, HA?"
She was afraid that something will happen to her.
A door was getting opened slowly in the hall. Right at the back of Olga.
Sakar: "This one is even bigger than the previous one. I feel it."
Olga got a little bit nervous but the door opening made her think this time it may be another person. Little she knew that her towel was stuck at the bottom corner of the door. The door opened fully and Olga's towel wasn't on her anymore. Sakar: "THERE IS MORE TO COME!"
They turned at the door and saw a naked girl inside who opened the door. She looked sleepy, was rubbing her eyes with one hand, with the other hand, she was holding a small teddy bear. She was a petite, small chested girl. Looked like the same age as them. Her eyes and hair were blue.
The naked girl: "Mrs. Victoria, there is too much noise, I am trying to sleep here.
The old lady ignored her being naked: "You are always sleeping. When will you wake up?"
The naked girl: "I wish I never wake up!"
She returned and closed her door.
Olga covered herself immediately.
Olga: "And they call me flasher. Look at her!"
The old lady: "She is the laziest person I have ever met. She probably thought that it would be a hassle to get dressed."
Sakar resisted fainting this time.
Kepyun: "Is your sexar thingy for real?"
Sakar: "Of course it is!"
The old lady: "Ethan, will you and your friends use the mixed bath or the separate ones?"
Olga answered instead of Kepyun.
Olga: "Separate ones. Also, who is Ethan?"
Kepyun: "It is me!"
Both Sakar and Olga spoke: "Are you having an identity crisis?"
Kepyun understood what he just said: "I meant that she means me."

The old lady: "Follow me."
The old lady showed them the location of the hot springs. The hot springs were open but there were walls covering them from the outside. The hot water in them was really good.
Sakar and Kepyun were relaxing in the water. Olga was questioning today about how much that happened to her all alone in the bath. There weren't other customers around. She still felt dirty and smelly. Separate baths were on the opposite sides so she didn't need to think if Sakar was peeping. She really needed to relax.
She was questioning her decision to enter that party. From time to time she thought that the perverted one will be a problem for her. He even vomited on her. But it is not like she can do well in a party full of girls. Girls were even bigger problems for her. They envied and bullied her all the time. Even if it didn't seem like it at first, within time, they always come to hate her. Boys would try to pick her up while the girls hated her. She thought of Kepyun who called her 'ugly b*tch'. Maybe the only person in this school that she could have a real friendly relationship. Even regarding all happened today, she decided to stay at the party. She didn't know much about friendship but she felt good today. She even cried out loud. This was something really first for her. She couldn't remember when was the last time she cried. She was devoid of emotions, it felt like the emotions were returning. Having people to talk to was really good.
Time passed without realizing it. She heard someone calling her.
Sakar: "Olga, you have five minutes to come out. Otherwise, I will enter and check if you passed out or something."
Was this a threat or consideration? Or was it such plain perverted selfishness of him? She stopped thinking over those and got out of the water to get dressed.
Olga: "I am not passed out! Coming right away."
She dressed and left the hot spring. The two guys were waiting for her. The old lady whispered to her ear: "Please take care of my little Ethan, young lady."
Olga was about to refute about that Ethan thingy but she just gave up. She just nodded.
Olga: "Come on, we could stay in there more."
Sakar pointed Kepyun: "His grandma said that it is dangerous to stay for long. Also she didn't take money from us."
Olga: "What? Also my new clothes, they need to be paid. I did like them, can I keep them?"
The old lady: "Your money isn't accepted here. Think of the clothes as a gift. Whenever you guys want, come visit me."
Olga smiled from the bottom of her heart. May be this was also first time she smiled for real since she lost her parents. It was the day, the day she lost her emotions, the day she gained a different goal in life, the day her sole wish was raining destruction upon the people who took her mother from her. She has been through hell after that. Became a slave of the prime minister of Zagriba. Facing the killer of her parents everyday, she couldn't even disobey him because of slavery magic. She thought that today wasn't a day to remember bad things. So for now, she sent this thoughts to the back of her head.
Olga: "Thank you."
They left, on the way Kepyun and Olga were arguing about stupidity of Sakar while Sakar was defending himself. They were laughing and having fun. It looked like this was the real celebration to the eyes Olga, even though there weren't any ice cream. She thought of something.
Olga: "Sakar, since you didn't pay for the hot spring, how about we eat another serving of ice cream?"
Sakar: "OK, let's go!"

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
