《My Mute Mate》Ch. 33
Advertisement
I was watching Sym gleefully get pushed on the swing by Calum and Ashton, when Drake suddenly plops down next to me.
"Hi." He grins at me as he lights up a cigarette. He offers me one and I shake my head. I wave slightly and he chuckles.
"Don't worry, you can link me. I'm in the pack." His voice pops up in my head and I sigh in relief.
"That makes everything so much easier." We avoid looking at eachother so it doesnt look like we're mind-linking.
"Yeah.. I like the way your voice sounds. It fits you." He compliments me and I feel my face get hot. Suddenly someone gently grabs at my arm so I look up to see Daniel.
"Hey, can I talk to you for a second?" His familiar soft voice asks me and I nod. He helps me up and we walk away from everyone.
"Hey, so I don't know how to say this but that's not a good idea." Daniel scratches the back of his head and I cock my head.
"What's a bad idea? The smoking? I know, thats why I said no."
"No, no. I meant Drake." His voice lowers even more and I feel my eyebrows scrunch together.
"What do you mean?"
"I saw him giving you the smile and you blushing and it just isnt a good idea, okay? He's bad news."
"But you're friends with him, aren't you?"
"Well... Yeah. He's my best friend but it's different."
"How?" I watch Daniel try to explain when it suddenly dawns on me.
"Daniel. You're not jealous, are you? Do you like me and are getting jealous because some other guy is being nice to me?" I smile slyly as his face turns beet red.

"T-Thats not true! Just, be careful Dove."
"Don't worry. I'm a big girl." I grin widely and go back to sit next to Drake.
"What'd Danny want?" He asks and I half laugh half wheeze at the memory.
"Oh nothing. Just has some things to accept." Drake grins and puts out his smoke. Right then, Sym sits right next to him.
"So Drake, when'd you get out? I thought you had another month?" Sym asks and Drake chuckles.
"I got out early on good behavior." He explains and I cock my head.
"He got caught in a knife fight and resisted arrest." Sym explains, seeing my look. I suddenly begin how heavily Daniel meant that he was a bad idea.
"Wow Sym, way to go. Look at her face. I was trying to ease her into my terrible past." Drake lectures sarcastically and Sym rolls her eyes.
"Past? Also, stop hitting on my friend. It's weird." Sym grins and my face starts burning again. I immedietley look beside me at Daniel and he shrugs. I look back over to find Drake and Sym arguing playfully.
"Yes my past. I wont get arrested again."
"So youre not gonna do anything illegal anymore?" Syms voiced is heavily laced with doubt and Drake starts grinning.
"I never said that, I just said I wouldnt get arrested again. Also, it's not illegal if you don't get caught." He gives her a wink and she sighs.
"Yet you don't let me get into any trouble."
"Well, yeah. There can be only one."
"What? Only one what?"
"Only one disappointment in the family." Drake leans back as he casually calls himself a disaopointment. Is his thought of himself really that low?

"Hey Dove! Come on I'll push you!" Calum yells from the tire swing, making me smile. I get up and jog over. Cal and Ashton help me up before standing on either side and pushing me. I end up spinning way too quickly and almost fall off, but have fun all the same. Im stopped suddenly, dizzily seeing Ashtons wide smile staring me in the face.
"Wait! Let me just climb on here!" Syms voice sounds from behind me and she climbs up to the top of the swing. I grin as they start swinging us.
"I came in like a wreeeeeeckinng baaall!" Sym purposely sings poorly, forcing her voice to crack multiple times before laughing. "I don't know anything but that."
"Of course you don't." Drakes amused voice sounds from nearby, but everything is blurry right now.
~Time skip~
I sit on the tire swing happily as everyone talks from the ground. I don't know why they let me have the swing, but I'm happy nonetheless.
"So what now guys?" Drake asks, sipping from a can of soda he got from his truck. I shrug with Daniel and Calum.
"I want to do something that we probably shouldn't do." Ashton pipes up after a while and I don't like the smile that spreads across Syms face after.
"You mean like Truth or Dare?" She says lowly and for some reason a knot forms in my stomach. I havent played this game since elementary school.
"I'll pass." Ashton opts out and Sym shrugs.
"Everyone else?" I shrug and nod while everyone else lets out a begrudging 'sure'. Sym rubs her hands together mischieviously.
"Wow, only Ashton is smart enough to opt out. Everyone else is willing to be at my mercy... Intresting." She laughs evilly at the end and Daniel groans.
"Oh come on just start the misery already." Drake laughs as the sun begins to set behind us. He lights up another cigarette as my knot tightens. I don't like the bad feeling this is giving me, and my gut's usually right.
"Well then, lets begin my children."
"I'm older than you."
"I was trying to set the mood, Cal."

The Verant Chronicles - Book One
The once powerful Verant Empire had been brought to its knees after seven years of civil war. The war maybe over, a new emperor maybe at the helm, but the empire remains broken. Deadly plagues, encroaching monsters, divided political loyalties only scratch the surface of the problems the empire now faces. Highwaymen make the roads unsafe, powerful wizards go unchecked and goblin hordes threaten local towns and villages. Elwin doesn’t want to spend his days as a farmer and dreams of adventure. He, his brother Rith, best friend Emerson and adopted cousin Anna, decide to go out into this world as adventurers hoping to seek fame and fortune just like in the books they read. The empire is at a crossroads as Elwin and his friends experience the aftermath of the war, they must come to terms with what it means to live in the Verant Empire as one of it's citizens. It all begins with an intriguing map sewn into cloth, written in a strange language and depicting a place that doesn’t seem to exist. Elwin and his friends decide to go to the capital city to join the adventurer’s guild and find someone who can translate the map and hopeful recognize the locations depicted. Along the way they encounter lizard creatures, goblins, former soldiers, a bard, druid and a powerful wizard who has his own eye on the map. They meet new friends and create deadly enemies. From great plains to a bustling metropolis, to a town devastated by an earthquake, their world of Gaia has a gritty realism to it and the empire is only a small part of a much large realm. It is a Romanesque world teetering on a renaissance in which Gods, gunpowder, armored knights, griffin riders and magic coexist uneasily. Elwin and his companions drink, they swear, they have sexual encounters, they make mistakes and face serious moral dilemmas at every turn. Planned out to be 30+ chapters in total including a prologue and epilogue. Chapters will be released about twice a week when possible.

The Fate of The Summoned (being ReWritten)
The Fate of The Summoned In the world of Aethion things are vastly different than on Earth. There is Magic and Monsters, as well as Demons and Dragons. Throughout the history of the world there have been many wars, both between all the various nations and kingdoms and between those nations and kingdoms and the Demonic forces lead by a Demon King or Lord. There are times that the Demons gain so much more power than the other nations, or that the others are embroiled in a war against each other and the lone nation is targeted by the demons. It was during these occasions that the various Gods and Goddesses started giving two things to the races. The First of these things were the Blessings, magical blessings given to the worth for chosen things. The Second of these things were the Summoning rituals, magic rituals that could summon beings from somewhere else, that would be Chosen, by the gods. These beings have almost always come from our world, Earth. It has been centuries since this practice began and the countries of the world have almost always flourished for a time after a Chosen or group of them were Summoned. All of the countries treat the Summoned well, almost like kings or princes in their own right. Well, not all countries, there are some that have treated them almost like slaves, though those countries don’t usually last long. There is one though, that has lasted, for a long time due to their connection to their Patron Deity, the Goddess of Light. They only accept certain types of Summoned and they dote on certain members of the country more than others. Several years ago they performed a summoning, as they were being plagued by overflow from the dungeons. Now they, like the other countries of Aethion, have performed the ritual to fight against the current Demon King, who is said to possess a Blessing. This is a story about Fate, and those that fight against it and those who accept it. In this story the main character(s) do not fight their fate, like those in my other story, rather they embrace it and let it shape them, though that does not mean they are total slaves to it. While there will be similarities to most other Hero sumoning novels, i hope the Mcs abilities and such will make it unique.
