《Crazy》20: Dinner

"Okay?" Was I supposed to serve myself then walk to the room? Or was he telling me to eat out here with him?
"...fûcking Cole." I heard the end of his low rambling and turned to look at him as leaned against the small kitchen island.
"Are you going to serve the food anytime soon?" He looked at me angered as if I'm doing something wrong.
"You can serve yourself." I grabbed a plate and grabbed two pieces of chicken with two spoonfuls of rice. My mouth was salivating looking at my creation.
Food is my love.
"You're such a bîtch." He went around and stood very close behind me as I placed the lid back on the rice.
"You won't say that once you try it." I looked around the drawers for a fork and right when I was about to open the one closest to the doorway his hand stopped me.
"Other side." I turned around without hesitation and walked to the other side, successfully finding the utensils.
I grabbed a fork for Drew and then dove into my food.
Man, I was good at this. This was one of the few dishes I'd mastered.
"Mm." I couldn't stop moaning out my satisfaction for this food.
"That's very distracting and cringe-y, stop." I looked at him and looked back down at my food.
"Fine." I finished eating after him even though I started eating first. He ate so damn fast.
"C'mon," his hand tugged at my elbow. I looked at him sadly and he nodded his head in the direction of the room.
"Back to the dungeon." I mumbled under my breath.
"Ungrateful bîtch." He mumbled back.
If I wasn't a prisoner here I'd most likely try to attack him but with the stuff he feeds me, I'm not strong enough to take him on.

"Dîckhead." I said this one so low I knew he didn't hear me. I smirked to myself as I walked ahead of him, as always.
"Just because I've decided to be nicer to you doesn't mean my threats don't still apply."
I nodded my head but what I really wanted to say was, Oo I'm soooo scared. He wasn't as scary as he used to be.
In all honesty he wasn't a very scary looking man, he was too good looking to be scary. It was the room and his words that made him scary. Not his physical appearance.
"Why did I have to come meet your brother?" I decided to break the silence.
"Someday you'll see." What the fûck is up with this mystery shît?
"Of course, I always do." He chuckles humorlessly.
"You'll regret ever loving your own father." We reached the door and I opened it walking in without saying another word.
He didn't apologize and I didn't expect anything near an apology from him but then again I thought we had moved on from this.
But I couldn't stop thinking about what awful thing my father could have done to this man?
This shell of a man that hides behind a façade and pretends to be someone he's not.
Just like I said to him, I'll find out, I always do.

I should be sleeping but I wrote this to say thank you for 300 reads!❤️

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
