Savannah's pov:
The next day, I woke up early. I took a shower and dressed up.
(Savannah's outfit⬆️)
I did my make up and made my way downstairs. Only mom and dad was awake.
"Good morning." I greeted as I took a seat at the dining table.
"Good morning." They both replied.
"You woke up early today." Mom said while cooking breakfast.
"Yeah, I'm meeting someone early today," I replied and she nodded.
"How is your project doing?" Dad asked putting his newspapers aside, giving me all his attention.
"Well, it's going great. The kids already moved in Damien's mansion. The builder already started to destroy the old orphanage and Prescott and Garett agreed to do the interior designs of the new orphanage." I explained and dad smiled.
"Look like I did a great thing to let you two handing this project. Who are you meeting today?" He asked after taking a sip from his coffee.
"Damien and I are going to meet the owner of the land which is in front of the orphanage. Since the new model of the orphanage will take all the backyard, the kids might not get any outdoor place to play. So Damien and I will try to convince the owner to give us half of the property so that we can use it as a playground." I explained and dad looked impressed.
"Damn honey, you are working so hard." Mom said while putting my breakfast in front of me.
"That looks so yummy," I said and mom chuckled.
"Better eat it now before it gets cold." She said and I nodded. I grabbed the fork and went for the eggs.
"Are you coming to the office today?" Dad asked and I shrugged.

"I don't know. It depends when the meeting will be over but I think I'll come." I said and he nodded.
"Enough talking, enjoy your breakfast."
I already texted Savannah to tell her that I was outside her house. I waited in the car. Yesterday after having dinner with Savannah, I had to go back to the Mafia world. Unfortunately, I had to fight some idiots and I hurt my arm. It wasn't that bad, just a small cut. I had a bandage around it under my suit.
The front door opened and there she was. I couldn't take my eyes off her, she looked different today. A good different. She wasn't wearing a suit but she looked really professional.
She opened the door and sat down, "Hi,"
"Hi, how are you?" I asked and I started to drive once she was settle.
"I'm good, what about you?" She asked and I shrugged.
"I'm fine," I replied.
The drive to the owner's office was quick. There was no traffic, so we reached soon. Mr Lewis, the owner, has a building all for himself. He has a lot of bodyguards and normal businessman doesn't dare to come here for deals. Not for me though.
I did one mistake. I shouldn't have bought Savannah with me here. Zach told me that Mr Lewis can be really mean and brutal with his clients. I'm not worried about myself and I won't let him say anything to Savannah.
We stepped out of the car and I make sure to walk closer to Savannah while we went inside. The guards had a gun in their waistline and they didn't hide it. I have one too but it was hidden with my suit.
We walked to the main counter and a guy was his laptop.

"Mr Lewis office is upstairs, first floor, second room to the left." He said not looking up. I glanced at Savannah and she shrugged.
We both walked to the elevator and we pass by many male employees working over here. They all eyed Savannah as we walked and I could feel Savannah was not comfortable. Seems like Mr Lewis only work with male employees. Great. I should have brought Zach and Crawford instead of Savannah. I feel like this meeting will end up messy.
We walked in the elevator and I heard Savannah sighed.
"Are you okay?" I asked, looking at her.
"I have been better." She murmured.
"If you want we can go out, I will come back and have the meeting with Mr Lewis later," I suggested and she shakes her head no.
"Let's just get over this and leave." She said and I nodded.
The door opened and we stepped out. We followed the way that the guy said and saw his office. There was a 'Mr. Lewis' wooden block on the wall, next to his door. I knocked and heard a come in.
We both walked in and Mr Lewis looked up. I immediately saw how he was looking at Savannah, with his disgusting lustful eyes. He stood up, smiling.
"Mr Turner, it's nice you could come." He said, mistaking me for Zach. Zach told me that he gave his name because he didn't want Mr Lewis to refuse this meeting.
"And you bought your assistance with you." He said, eyeing her. I felt her tense beside me and I clenched my fist.
He put his hand forward and I handshake him, tightly. He wasn't even looking at me as his eyes were fixed on Savannah. He let my hand go and immediately put it in front of Savannah.
She hesitantly handshake him.
"I hope you didn't have any problem coming here. Such a pretty lady like you shouldn't be bothered by anyone." He said not leaving her eyes. He passed his other hand gently on top of her hand and she abruptly removed her hand.
"I didn't drive here, he did. Maybe you should ask him that." She answered pointing at me.
"Take a seat," he replied instead. We both sat down on the chair in front of him and I noticed that Savannah moved her chair closer to mine. Not that I mind.
"So what's your name?" He asked Savannah and I swear he was testing my patience.

Ari-os
Ari-os is a story about a 21-year-old woman who woke up in an abandoned lab with little to no memories of her past. Turns out she is in the future now and the world became a very different place from what it used to be. Magic appeared in the world, changing it forever, and humanity created a way to control it, allowing people to increase their physical and mental abilities while shaping the world according to their will, but something caused civilization to regress, becoming a mere shadow of what it used to be. In her journey to figure out who she was, what happened to the world, and how much time has passed, Kali will discover ancient ruins, fight horrendous creatures, find how humanity has fared in this harsh world and meet with droids that walk the land as remnants from the technology that the world once had. In this story, you are going to see Litrpg elements such as a system with panels, skills, and stats (Although not inside a game, the main character has access to information about her growth much like an RPG). Survival elements will be present but it won't be the focus of the story, but crafting and enchanting on the other hand are going to be quite prevalent. Please, do let me know what you think in a comment or review, all criticisms are welcome. Also, English is not my native language so if you see any grammar mistakes, do tell me :) Chapters of ~2700 words each.

Draugr Cell //Layer 01-- Investiture:
With the end of the only war to ever reach mainland Australia I found myself living out of a small room in an old military compound that had been handed over to the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The end of the war, unfortunately, didn't mean the end of hostilities. The terrorism trend that had started back in the early 2000's with the attack on the world trade center over in America, had spread to just about every country on the face of the planet. Over time the constant threat from various groups meant the civilian police force was quickly undermanned, under equipped, and overwhelmed. They were simply unable to respond to the daily threats in any reasonable time frame, and in many situations lacked the both the skills and equipment required to deal with the threats to put them down in a 'safe' and expedient manner. Veterans of the war that were being reintegrated into society however, were just about everywhere, all the time. We have the training and the skills required to deal with just about any threat you care to mention, all we needed was access to the equipment to do so. In a world first, under the new Veterans program, the Australian government had taken the rather controversial step of allowing specifically selected veterans to go armed in public. Sure, with Australian weapons laws being very, very strict there were a number of hurdles to get over first, but that's where the selection part comes in. Tangentially that's actually how I met Brianna, my current partner. We work as ringers in Victory City, I thought being thrown into imptomtu combat operations and risking my life on a daily basis for barely livable wages was excitement enough. Then I met her... it... I don't know. An AI unlike anything else out there has wedged itself into my life and decided it needs to... look after me. What could possibly go wrong? **** This is the first book I have released, and my first entry into a cyberpunk universe. There is minimal drug use, a fair amount of sex, a bit of gory violence, and a sultry AI that has decided the main character needs a harem.
