《RESCUED AND RISEN》Chapter 12 Repost
Advertisement
Wattpad wasn't showing updates for the first post for some perons so I decided to reposted it.
I've been here for probably just over an hour and started actually working about half hour now after Katie show me around and explain to me what needed to be done. I was either going to quit, get fire or slap somebody in the eye if another drunk guy smack my ass.
If I was correct, precisely only 30 minutes since I had went to deliver few tray of drinks and I had gotten smack on the butt three times. One of the guy had even refer to me as 'fresh meat'. These were types of behavior I was used to experiencing at Lollipop Tease but at least this wasn't by drunks. As far as I can tell this was the normal behavior for bar, I saw other men do it to another waitress. I had only started working not even a day as yet and I didn't want to get fired so I decided to deal with the repulsive behavior while I have to. I spent five years being owned by Alfredo if that didn't prepare me enough for instances like this, nothing else will.
"Ugh!" I groaned in disgust as I slam the tray down on the bar counter.
"A rough first day sweetie?" Katie chuckled.
"If I'm being touched by another drunk guy I am going to hurl" I said wrinkling my nose.
"Sorry babe, it's just part of business though" she said giving me a sympathetic smile.
"Are employees allowed to drink while on the job or get discount on drinks?" I asked frustrated.
"You know what? I know what can help" Katie said as she took up a bottle and pour whatever it is in a shot glass before passing it over the counter to me. "Here, try this. Its on the house"

"What's this?" I lift the glass up to my nose sniffing it's contents before tipping and back and shuttering. "Damn!...that's strong".
" I know right" Katie giggle. "Think of it as a welcome to the job shot. Now get over here so I can start teaching you about all the liquor and beverages".

"So my first week of work wasn't that bad" I said to my mom.
"I don't know I still don't like the idea of you being back in the club scene" mom replied.
"I know but mom this isn't like that type of club. I'm serving drinks there not ...performing for them" I said to her. "I don't really feel degraded like before"
"You still have to be around disgusting men and even worst drunks" mom said to me. "Its still just..."
"It's gonna help me get back on my feet so I'm gonna stick to it until I can get something better" I replied. "I'm even thinking of searching for a second job, that way I can save enough money for your heart procedure".
"Amy no, I don't expect you to be working your butt off just to make a few dollars to help me. Its not..." Mom started but I cut her off.
"It is my job now. You'd do the same for me so let me do this for you" I said to her. "Or at least let me try"
"You know I've always wondered how on earth I was so lucky to get a wonderful daughter like you" mom said with a small smile.
"I guess you were just lucky enough to be my mom" I chuckled.

Lucas's POV
I was going to discuss some important business
about a new casino opening that Gio had put me in charged off with him. He had told me to get back to him when there was any new development, so here I was at his and Lexi's house. I had the access to come here whenever I wanted seeing I was his right hand man and best friend. Earlier when I informed him I was stopping by I knew to go to his office when I got here but the minute I had arrived here, I was wondering if I should probably return another time.

I'm pretty sure it sounded like he and Lexi were arguing. If I'm mistaken I would be sure that the argument sounded a bit intense. Was there already trouble in paradise? This was an awkward situation for me, I was expected here so here I was but with him and Lexi arguing about whatever I wasn't sure if I should go and interrupt. Lexi already hated me and if I go and interrupt she is most likely to blow up more and in addition to that Gio is most likely in a really fowl mood. This could go either of many ways. Gio doesn't like to be messed with when he's upset and if he was upset with his wife or if she was upset with him and I go in there now, I'm most likely the one that everything will be taken out on. I considered waiting for a while but since I was already here I guess I'd just have to be on the receiving end of this conflict. The sooner I discuss things with Gio the sooner I can leave.
I walked to Gio's home office door and knocked. At my knock the arguing stopped and seconds later the door was opened roughly by Giovanni himself. By the look on both their faces whatever they were arguing about was definitely intense and they did not like the idea of being interrupted.
"You wanted us to discuss business" I said to him. "Did I after all come at a bad time?"
I watched Gio eyebrow twitched with anger and his jaw clenched but instead of snapping at me like I had expected I was surprised by his respond.
"No you didn't. Come in. I called you to discuss business and we are going to discuss things" Gio said seriously before turning to his wife. "I'm going to be busy now, we'll talk about this later"
"Gio" Lexi said in a defeated tone I wasn't expecting.
"I said later Lexi" Gio said a bit harsh surprising me completely.
"Fine" Lexi sighed shaking her head. "I'll go".
"You should" Gio replied in the same tone.
Sighing Lexi turned towards the door and brushed passed me as she exited the office. Slamming the door behind her, Gio turned to me.
"So what's the development?" He asked me completely ignoring the fact that I just witness all that a minute ago.
I could have asked what the hell was up with them but decided to stay in my lane and not stick my nose where it doesn't belong, especially when Too is clearly that furious. If its something he wants to talk about, he will when he feels like it.
"I got a perfect location for the new casino"

Barbarians
The Triumvirate has known peace for 10,000 years. Their technology dwarfs that of Man, and for almost a century now Humanity has done everything they have asked of us, in order to learn even a fraction of their secrets. With their help, we have abolished poverty, and hunger. War is now a thing of the past. We have made incredible strides in a very short time period...and yet the Triumvirate races keep us at arm's length. They see us as half-evolved apes, too violent even now to keep company with our betters. They call us...Barbarians. But sometimes, a Barbarian is exactly what you need. (This incredible piece of artwork was a commission by Harry Rowland (@rowl_art_)...and I couldn't be more amazed at the job he's done. If you're looking for something like this, give him a yell.)

The Sun's Remnant
Two people are transported to a world with magic, but it is no Wonderland. When the god of light died, he decided to take the world with him. At least, that’s what many believe in the Kingdom of Rhine, a once vast kingdom of which only a small corner remains — and even that is threatened. On one side, by the Twisted Forest, a corruption spreading from the deathplace of the gods that has already swallowed up most of Rhine. On the other, by the resurgent Kagrathan Empire, resurrected by the infallible God-Emperor Karlatz. A holy order of knights carry out their mission despite the death of their god. A band of talented misfits prepare for a heist out of their league — by stealing. Mages hunt for secrets even as the world ends. A ruler does what must be done to save the living, no matter the cost. Into this world of magic and murder, two adrift souls are inexplicably dragged: a mother estranged from her young daughter due to her own mistakes, and a young man with a love of fantasy who has gradually drifted away from his friends and family. As they each struggle to find their place in this world, they must also answer the question: do they want one?***Content Warning: I've drafted about 100,000 words (most of the first volume), and there is no sexual content so far, though I may add it in the future. There is occasionally gore and traumatising content as the story demands. I commit to keeping all of the above non-voyeuristic. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

What happens when those given power of unimaginable proportions fulfill their objective and become without aim? Some may continue to use it wisely, but, more often than not, it is abused.

They engage in an endless power struggle for the only ones that can oppose them is each other.Here in this world of might and magic, a reincarnated man makes a small mistake, he accidentally skipped the skill and stats screen in the process of reincarnating. His stats are nothing but ones and has no innate skills or talents. He sits yearning for a life undetermined by others.If you have reached this point and are willing to put up with my garbage along with my inconstant uploading, then welcome and I hope that you find some enjoyment out of this, even if aimed at myself.
