《Our Little Moon》Chapter 8 - i need to ask you something
Advertisement
🌕🌙
The outside was still dark when I decided to get up. It's been a week since my room was being renovated and since then I was sleeping in my brothers's room which was really nice because I felt so safe and comfortable.
And now, my room was done since yesterday and here I'm, alone and miss any of my brothers's hug. They asked me if I want to sleep to anyone of them, but I shook my head and said that I have to try to be a big girl and sleep on my own which they respected even they said that I shouldn't have to be alone.
Which was correct, because right now I felt so alone, that's why I woke up early and feel not good.
They are like a medicine to my aching wounds. They keep healing me until the pain became less painful.
Looking back, I was wondering where I would be or how am I going to move on if Ares didn't take me in. I don't know if some family can accept me the way my brothers accepted me. I cannot tell that it was only because I'm a blood family, because according to the diary that I'm reading, she was accepted and loved by her adopted parents. So it is not only by blood.
Anyway, since I started living with them and had little misunderstanding in the beginning with Hady and Eros, eveything else seems good. The longingness that I felt for my Mommy have lessened because of them and I can't trade them for anyone else.
I love them so much that it hurts.
That I don't know if I can live if one of them gets hurt.
Because of me.
"Bambina, can you come with me in my office after breakfast?" Ari said in a serious tone and face.
And right now, I feel little scared because I remember, I did something not nice today.
🌙
"Boo!"
"OH MY GOD!" Apollo shouted while throwing his pillow on me. It didn't hit me hard so I am good.
"What the hell Luna! You will give me a heart attack!" He said dramatically that made me laugh before jumping on him. He caught me with gentleness and I love it. Soon, after he recovered he told me to do same with the others which I like, since it's been my plan all along.

When I open Hady's room, he's sleeping with his stomach and without hesitation, I tickle his ear using the feather that me and Poly have taken from the dream catcher that hung on our living room. I know it's bad but they wouldn't know, right?
Right?
Just for few seconds and Hady was on his feet and looking so angry to whoever tickled his ear.
"What the fudge Selene?" He asked in low tone but enough for me to be scared, his eyes darkened but when I pout my lips and show him my puppy eyes, his eyes soften immediately and smothered me with lot of kisses.
"Don't ever do that again Love, okay?" I said sorry first to him before I told him yes, although I am not sure of it.
Soon, I went to Eros' room and found that he's already awake so I pout my lips again.
"Come here Princess." He asked and I do come closer to him. I gave him a kiss and said 'Good Morning Bubba'
"Good morning my Princess. So why you're up so early?" He said and I know that already, that's why I am waking them up, but just not the normal way.
And I cannot tell him my plan.
"I didn't have a nice sleep because I miss your hug bubba." I said truthfully, no doubt about that.
"Oh! I am sorry princess for that, if you like you can sleep here now." He offered but I have a mission that I need to finish first. So I declined politely and get away from him as fast as I could because he tried to cage me.
My next stop is Diony and when I enter his room, he's still asleep and I smile because I cannot wait.
He's also snoring and I giggled. My bad because I chose to tickle him on his nose.
And that is what I did. And just few seconds, he sneezes and it was so funny to look at. I bite my lips to not laugh because he will feel sad but when some of his saliva was splash on my face, I cannot stop myself to react.
"Bubba, I feel like I took a shower!" I told him and before he could say anything, I run outside and wiped my face.

Geez, morning saliva was not good idea I think. But it's my fault so I have to deal with it.
So now, last but not the least, my oldest and scariest Bubba.
But sweet and I love him so much.
And my mission is so easy this time than I imagined because normally, Ari didn't sleep with blanket, so his feet are showing where I'm standing.
I smile when he groaned as I start stroking the feather on his big foot, and because I am naughty, I do it on both and suddenly, I heard him laughing.
He's laughing.
Like me.
Lika a kid.
And it inspired me to stroke them like I'm doing a painting.
Soon, he's laughing so hard then sit straight while hiding his feet from me.
"What the he—-, Artemis?" He asked while still in daze. His one eye is still close.
"Artemis, did you just tickle me?" He asked again and this time I nodded my head. And before he can speak again I run outside of his room because the sun is rising up and I need to get dress and do my business.
Breakfast is near and I am not sure what awaits me.
But one thing that I am so sure is.
Mission accomplished.
And I smile.
🌙
"Hmm, I think someone is in trouble." Apollo stated. I look at him and pout my lips.
He's my accomplice, he helped me with my mission, so why he's telling me like this?
"Am I in trouble, Ari?" I asked with my puppy eyes that earned low groan from them.
"Quegli occhi sono illegali." Hady murmured, before continuing with his food.
(Those eyes are illegal.)
"Sapeva di avere potere su di noi quando usa quegli occhi assassini." Diony muttered under his breath before looking at me and then smile.
(She knew she has power over us when she's using that killer eyes.)
Maybe for them, but I'm not sure this time with Ari, because he didn't answer me and just ask me to eat all my food.
I sighed silently and hoping that my maximum punishment will be NO watching movies, but I like to watch! Especially with Hady and Poly.
So maybe no candies for a day? But I love my gummy bears and worms too! so I hope he wouldn't give me that punishment.
But my thoughts was cut-off because of Ari.
"Bambina, You're not in trouble. You're kid and it's normal to be naughty sometimes. Though next time don't tickled me again." He said in serious face but smile afterwards.
And my eyes widened because he's not mad and I'm not in trouble.
"YES!" I shriek and fist bump in the air, before I realized that it's not good especially while we're eating.
So I muttered sorry.
"Baby, don't worry, it's alright." Diony cooed when he noticed my sudden action.
"Thank you Diony. And I'm so sorry about today, early in the morning, but I think where even because you showered me with lots of your saliva." I said and then giggles.
Eros almost choke on his food and drink his water.
While Hady, Apollo and Ari couldn't help themselves but laugh so hard. That their laughing are so contagious that I cannot control myself from laughing too.
And what else can I ask for?
As Ari said, I need to come with him at his office. And if I'm not in trouble? Why am I here?
And he's looking at me, like he cannot decide if he will talk to me or not.
"Bubba, what's the problem?" I asked sweetly, and he smile at me immediately.
"Actually, I need to ask you something, but I don't want to pressure you. Because I don't want seeing you in pain." I hummed while listening.
What does he needs to ask from me.
"Before I start, I want to ask you. Do you trust me Bambina?"
"Yes." I said abruptly. No question about it.
"Okay, so this things that I will ask you may cause you stress, so you tell me if you want me to stop, alright?" And I said yes again.
"Right, so Artemis, my question is, where were you before your mother's death?" He asked softly as my eyes started to brim with tears.

Beneath No Sky: Chronicles of the Atmospheric Sector
After bringing themselves back from the brink of annihilation, humanity's future seemed bleak. However, it's remnants, throwing aside the old order and donning a new mantle of progress aimed to rise above their ancient disputes and go forward as one. Once the Earth reached it's natural limit, and colonies around Terra and Luna had shown promising results, humanity finally decided to make the move to the stars. Believing this to be the start of a new age, they eagerly poured across the solar system and further beyond, greeting what space had to offer with hope and optimism. It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope. They theorized that their problems were born of an inherent sense of home and, in order to rid humanity, now comprising of the Terrans as well as all the other known species of the galaxy, of this burden, decided to move far away from civilized space, into uncharted depths, to start anew. Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama. Multiple POV protagonists and lots of unnecessary detail. Somewhat psychological. My first work on this website. Cover is AI-generated, cover font is Salvar Font by Salvar on fontspace (https://www.fontspace.com/salvar-font-f42807).

The Shattered Universe Saga - Deus Vult Alpha from Omega
This is book one. Rick West, a wounded Marine with a very unique past is transported, with a significant portion of Earth's population, to a new universe. One that is shattered and yet to coalesce under a divine law. This is the story of a military man who begins the saga immature, rough, careless of other’s feelings. A young man whose focus is on getting laid, fighting, and winning at every turn, regardless of cost. He gets caught up in a strange occurrence, along with a billion others, and finds himself in an oddly familiar place where life is lived as a timed-event role-playing game. He discovers that within the shattered universe he is a Mystic Player, a Marshal, a figure of power, potential, and probability. If he wins, he may even able to wrestle unto himself the very throne of heaven. Rick starts to build his Pantheon with his most trusted companions, friends, family, and a harem of strong and talented women. He faces challenges within himself and others, and also must lead his faction into battle with men and monsters. As Rick and his companions progress through the adventure games within the pocket universe, he develops a greater understanding of his humanity and the qualities of what makes each of us uniquely valuable. He grows mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, without really noticing how he is leaving his old existence behind. Striving against him for truly ultimate power are a thousand others with the same potential, the same possibilities. All are aligned on the spectrum from the brightest of minds, the lightest of hearts, to the darkest of souls. All Mystic Players, be they Monster or Marshal, share one characteristic. They thrive in chaos. And a shattered universe is a universe in chaos. At the end of the Saga, will the winner be someone worthy of emulation and even, if it were appropriate, of worship as an exemplar of divinity. Will the title granted to the Final Victor be EXEMPLAR, or will the title be DESPOILER? That is the question.

Dungeon Crawler Katia
The aliens killed everyone on Earth...almost. Every structure, from the Taj Mahal to the lowliest lobster trap, vanished into the earth, killing everyone inside. The survivors were given a choice: Endure on the surface without food or shelter or tools, or descend into a world-spanning nightmare dungeon that is also a reality TV show. Katia, an art professor from Iceland who has given up her humanity to transform into a shapeshifting doppelganger, meets up with Carl and his cat, Donut. Together, the three fight to survive in a dungeon filled with Clarketech goblin murderdozers and pyramid-scheme fairy moonshine-makers. The above is, of course, describing Dungeon Crawler Carl. With DoctorHepa's (the author) permission I'm posting some fanfic to expand on Katia, one of the secondary characters who started off not getting as much exploration as I would have preferred. I started off writing chapters that matched up to canon except from her POV instead of Carl's; that lasted a couple of chapters before going off the rails and spinning off into a completely new story, which suggests I should really go back and renumber all the chapters as soon as I find some tuits.
