《A Beautiful Nightmare》Chapter 02 (continuation): Heart, A place you shouldn't listen to

" Your majesty" she addressed Queen Helena bowing on one knee, "Aunty It's a pleasure to see you," she added kissing the ring on the Queen's hand. " The pleasure is all mine" Aunt Alaina replied before screaming curses to what Aerial had worn.
"What in the Amelia have you worn!" she screeched placing her hands on her frilly dress while Aerial mentally rolled her eyes. The beating of boots on the marbled floor echoed grasping everyone's attention." Oh, Queen Alaina hasn't she always worn dirty rags" that familiar voice Aerial hated laughed at his lame comment.
Amelia kill me now! she thought " Mother" he claimed hugging Queen Helena and placing a kiss on her cheek. He was wearing his horse-riding uniform doubtless he had horse riding lessons. "Prince Laen" Aerial started bowing respectfully. " Alaina how many times should I say that we aren't having a party to dress all frilly with ball gowns." the Queen replied winking at Aerial before smirking at her son. Aerial faced the grey orbs, throwing daggers at her and stuck out her tongue playfully while he rolled his eyes leaving the hall. "Speaking of party, I would love to invite you, Aerial, to the coronation it's a masquerade ball so don't forget to wear a mask." the Queen invited kindly, groaning Aerial answered kindly " Yes your highness" she stated emphasizing the word highness knowing the Queen hated that name.
Aerial POV
" Aerial? Shall we walk through the garden?" Helena requested " Yes your majesty" I replied mockingly.
Grass and bushes took over the marbled floor, the passage was black dark with only a lamp brightening the way, she had lead us to a tiny passage from a door hidden behind the bushes. "Oh my God", the words rolled out of my plump lips unintentionally, at the end of the passage. The surrounding was more than my hazel eyes could take, It was a jungle full of flowers. The city was clearly visible, the scared mountains glistened from the rays of sunlight, clouds floating like the sweet candy fluffs they made in the market.

"Beautiful isn't it?" a velvety voice broke my thoughts. She was sitting near a pond tracing a flower with her soft fingers." Your mother and I used to always play here" she stated as I sat next to her sucking the surrounding. " It is wonderful Elina" I replied. Giggling she commented "Never stopping old habits are we" she questioned placing her palm on mine. Worry took over my features, brows furrowed I wondered off of losing Luna " But I haven't even found my powers yet how shall I save Luna?" I ruminated.
" Fate shall decide dear" she replied. Nodding I lay my head on her shoulder.

" It was a pleasure meeting you, your majesty so I take it as my cue to leave." she replied "Aunty?" Aerial questioned asking permission to leave. " No!" a voice erupted behind her, she turned to face Princess Clair running to hug her" Clair...- ca..n't breath" she gasped breathlessly.
" Clair! act like a princess!" Aerial commanded mockingly using Helena's tone. Helena rolled her eyes walking to the dining room to chat with Aunt Alaina **why hadn't she left yet?** Aerial thought." I have so much to tell you!" Clair shrieked tugging Aerial towards her room.

The Silver Mana - Book 1: Initiate
I used to be a healthy, young guy with a normal life - I had a career planned in professional soccer, a girlfriend, lots of hobbies, and loads of fun. Until the accident. Which changed my life. A few years later I had adjusted to my new reality, adjusted to being in a wheelchair, adjusted to having someone take care of me 24/7. And then the world changed. Old people and kids did not make it. And neither was I supposed to make it. But never count me out. If anything, I am tenacious. This new world was different. People could do magic. And there were monsters. And what about me? I had mana as well, silver mana. Which no one else seemed to have. The only problem was, I did not know what to do with it. Until I really needed to. Author's note: This is the rewrite of Silver Mana. The first bunch of chapters (until I will have caught up to level 2 of the dungeon) should be quite familiar to people that have read the original. There are some changes in content, but the story follows the original fairly closely for at least the first 150-200 pages. Most of the changes are in the writing, and some of the details of how things work. A few of the side characters get a bit more attention too. Some general comments to avoid disappointment: 1. The MC likes to swear. If you object to reading the word "fuck" at least once and usually multiple times each chapter don't read the book. "Fuck" is such a great, allencompassing word... fuck that; what the fuck?; fuck me! Fuck! one word, expressing so many nuances. And, frankly, the people I know that use fuck as a swear word.. they often use it a lot. 2. If you are looking for immediate progression, rapid advancement of the story, etc.... read another book. This one takes a bit. 3. I am NOT Pirateaba (who is writing The Wandering Inn) or anyone close to that level of productivity. If you expect to read 10k words every 3 days, or even just once a week... sorry. I've got a busy life. This is for fun, I have no patreon, paypal, anything, so I write when it is fun and however much is fun. Not more. And sometimes that turns out to be a decent amount, sometimes nothing. I have another book (Marrow) so that complicated things - basically I switch between the two whenever the muse strikes me.

Red Street Daybreak
August Samuel Hatch was born under an inauspicious pattern of stars. It's granted him what is widely considered the most unlucky of inconveniences: becoming host to a powerful but pernicious spirit that will act as his guide and protector--and one day end his life. Sairne is sworn to stand by August's side and, when the fancy strikes her, advise him, all in the service of atoning for a past life she can’t remember having committed a grave enough offense to earn her soul indentureship in the mortal realm. Bound by a celestial contract neither one can negotiate, their fates are all they've ever known. But in a city ruled by religious right and where magic runs deep as bedrock, their search for a missing friend leads them to a dark conspiracy that could transmute the very magic that binds them to their fates, and that might grant them the ultimate choice: do they save the city or save themselves? Cross-posted on Wattpad and Ao3. For fans of fantasy YA story beats if they starred adults instead, 1920s inspired setting, lots of banter, larger cast of characters, somewhat soft magic system. Completed, but being actively edited prior to posting! I'm the only captain on this ship, so mind any errors.
