*Ariana's POV*
After Alex calmed me down from my crying he held me in his arms.
"Do you want to go back there again?" He whispered in my ear. I nodded my head and he kissed my forehead.
"Will you come with me?" I asked him. He nodded his head.
"Of course." He said. He held my hand and led me back to their room. "I'll wait out here." He told me. I took a deep breath before going inside. Both Jess and Aunt Nancy looked at me when I walked in.
"Are you okay?" Jess asked me. She then shook her head and sighed. "Of course you aren't. I shouldn't have even asked." She said.
"It's okay." I said. "How are you two?" I asked them.
"Could be better." They both shrugged.
"I think we all could." I said.
"Nance why don't we give Ariana some time with the boys?" Jess suggested to Aunt Nancy.
"Good idea." She nodded. The two left their husbands and hugged me before leaving the room. I slowly walked over to Dad's bed first. I sat in the chair that Jess once sat next to. I held his hand and looked at him.
"Hey Dad." I managed to say. "You have to wake up. I need you old man. You have to fight. I can't lose you yet. You told me that you are gonna be here for a long time. You pinky promised Dad. We never break pinky promises. If you're gone who will threaten Alex? Someone has to do it!" I cried. "Alright now I have to go talk to Uncle Jimmy." I said. I leaned closer to him and kissed his forehead. "I love you so much, Dad." I whispered.
I then stood up from my chair and walked over to Uncle Jimmy's bedside and sat down in the chair Aunt Nancy once sat in.
"Hey there elder." I smiled. "You really need to wake up soon. I'm not ready to lose you yet. I need you and Dad. I love you so much Uncle Jimmy." I lightly kissed his forehead before walking out of the room.
"You okay?" Alex asked me. He still stood right by the door. I smiled and nodded. He held me close and kissed my forehead. "I love you so much." Alex told me.
"I love you more." I smiled. We then walked back to the waiting room, hand in hand. When we got to the waiting room James, Gloria, Gram and Gramps went back to the room to go see their sons.
"Do you want to go get coffee with me?" Alex asked me. "I'll get you a cappuccino since you don't like my coffee." He smiled.
"Alex, right now is not the best time for a coffee date." I laughed.
"Do you want your cappuccino or not?" He laughed.
"Of course." I smiled.
"Anybody else want coffee?" Alex asked everyone. Everyone's hands went up.

"Jonathan, Stephen come with us so you can help carry the cups." I said to them.
"C'mon Stephen we can be third wheels!" Jonathan laughed. Stephen laughed and walked over to us with his brother.
"This isn't a date." I laughed.
"I was kind of hoping it was." Alex smiled at me.
"You can make it whatever you want it to be." I winked at him.
"Ugh stop with the flirting." Stephen groaned.
"Never." I smiled. We then walked to the elevator and rode it down to the cafeteria.
We ordered the coffees and had to wait for all of them to be made. We sat down at a table.
"Have you talked to Lacy?" I asked Stephen.
"Yeah." He nodded. "She's gonna come up tomorrow. Her parents might come with her." He said.
"Okay." I nodded.
"You know what we haven't done Stephen." Jonathan said to his brother.
"What Jonathan?" Stephen asked him. Jonathan looked and smiled at Alex. Oh God. I think I know what he's going to say.
"We haven't threatened Alex." He said. Stephen looked at my boyfriend and smiled.
"You're right, we haven't." Stephen said.
"No. You two will not threaten my boyfriend. He's already gotten threatened by my Dad, Lacy and Uncle Jimmy. I think that's enough." I said to them.
"Alright, but let's make it clear. You break her heart, you die." Jonathan said.
"I know." Alex nodded. "If that ever does happen, which it won't, I will be waiting for you all to come kill me because I would deserve it." He said. I looked at him and smiled.
"This one's a keeper, Ariana." Jonathan nodded in approval.
"Thanks Jon, I know he is." I smiled at Alex. My boyfriend smiled at me and we kissed.
"Ew don't kiss in front of us." Stephen groaned. Alex and I both smiled as we kissed. I pulled him closer to me as we kissed.
"Ugh." Jonathan groaned. Suddenly something as thrown at our faces. We pulled away and looked at what hit us. It was one of those small things of creamer. I glared at my uncles and they smiled.
"Really?" I frowned. "I don't throw things at you and Lacy when you kiss." I said to Stephen.
"Yeah but Lacy and I don't make out in front you." He said.
"Uh on the way to school one time in my car you did." I laughed.
"Oh yeah." He nodded. "I remember that." He smiled.
"Of course you do." I rolled my eyes. The person making over coffees then walked over to us.
"Your coffees are ready." He told us. We walked over to the counter and got the coffees and my cappuccino of course.
"Thanks!" We all smiled at him.
"No problem." He smiled. We all rode the elevator back to the fifth floor.
"Here's everyone's coffee." I said. We put the coffees on a table and everyone got theirs. I took a sip of my cup and then regretted it. "This is black coffee." I groaned. I looked at Alex and saw him smiling at me. "You disgust me." I shook my head.

"I'm sorry babe." He smiled. "Can I have my coffee?" He asked me.
"If you give me my cappuccino." I smiled. He held out my cappuccino and we switched. We both took a drink of our hot drinks.
"Now that's better." I smiled. He chuckled and we sat down in the seats we once sat in before. He wrapped his arm around me and I felt him play with my hair.
"Your hair is so soft." He looked so amazed.
"Thanks." I laughed.
"I'm serious!" He laughed. "Whatever you do to get your hair like this, keep on doing it because I am loving how soft it is!" He smiled.
"Okay Alex." I laughed. I then realized something, I don't think Baze knows that Dad and Uncle Jimmy were in a car accident. "Jess?" I said. She looked at me and smiled.
"Yeah?" She asked me.
"Did you tell Baze about all of this?" I asked her. She gasped and pulled out her phone. "I'll take that as I no." I quietly laughed. She was on the phone with Baze for a short time.
"He's on his way now." She told me. I nodded and turned my attention to Alex. He was trying his best to keep his eyes open.
"Babe why don't you go home and get some rest." I suggested to him.
"No." He shook his head. "I'm gonna be here with you. I promised you that I would be the there for you and so I am." He said.
"Alex you are trying your best to keep your eyes open. You're so tired." I said.
"Ariana why don't you go too? You both need some rest." Jess suggested. "Justin will kill me for saying this, but you can stay with him for the night." She said.
"You up for it?" Alex asked me.
"Sure." I nodded.
"But Stephen and Jonathan have to be there with you." Jess said.
"Why?" Stephen, Jonathan and I all groaned.
"Because I'm positive you won't doing anything if these two are there." She smiled.
"Fine." We all three said. We all then hugged our family.
"Call me if anything changes." I told Jess.
"I will." She nodded. Jess then kissed my cheek.
"I love you. Be good at Alex's." She whispered in my ear.
"I love you too and I will." I laughed.
"C'mon Timberlakes." Alex chuckled.
"Now as Justin would say," She said.", 'you try anything with my little girl and I will kill you'" She said in a deep voice, trying to act like my Dad. We all laughed.
"Yes sir." Alex laughed. All four of us then left to the hospital and got in Alex's car. "One of you can have the guest room and one can have the couch in the living room." Alex said to Jonathan and Stephen. The two brothers looked at each other and began arguing over who will get what.
"Where will I sleep?" I grinned at Alex. Jonathan and Stephen were to busy arguing to pay attention to Alex and I. Alex chuckled and smiled at me.
"With me of course," He smiled. "But if you aren't comfortable with that I can give you the guest room and make them sleep in the living room." He said.
"No it's fine." I smiled. He smiled and nodded.
"Alright." He said. We arrived at Alex's apartment. "Just make yourselves at home." Alex said to Jonathan and Stephen. Alex walked down the hallway and came back with three pairs of sweatpants and one t shirt. "You guys can wear these tonight." He said as he handed us the clothes. He handed me a pair of black sweatpants and the t shirt. The shirt was a Memphis Grizzlies shirt.
"How come she gets a t shirt?" Stephen asked Alex.
"Because she's my girlfriend." Alex smiled at me. I smiled at him. I love hearing him call me his girlfriend.
"Alright boys, we're going to bed." I said to my uncles.
"Blankets are in that closet." Alex pointed to a door.
"Night." The brothers said to us.
"Night." We said.
"If we hear anything going on in that bedroom, we will come in there, tear you two apart and kill Alex." Stephen called.
"Yeah, yeah we know." I said.
"We're serious!" Jonathan called.
"I know!" I said. Alex and I then walked inside his bedroom. I changed in his bathroom that was attached to his bedroom and went back into his room. He laid on the bed and looked at me.
"Come here princess." He said. He held out his arms for me and I went to him. He wrapped them around me and rubbed my back. I rested my head on his chest. "Just cry, I know you want to." He whispered. He was right, I did want to cry. So I did. I cried in his strong arms.
"I'm so scared." I whispered to him.
"I know. So am I." He whispered back to me.
"You are?" I asked him.
"Of course." He nodded. "Those two have became like my family." He smiled. He wiped away my tears and kissed my forehead. "I love you and we are going to get threw this together." He told me.
"Okay." I nodded.
"I promise." He said. I then pulled him close to me and kissed him.
"I love you, Cowboy." I whispered to him.
"I love you, Princess." He whispered to me.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
