《The Boy Who Protected The One He Loves》16
Advertisement
Two days later was a horrible day.
We all wear black clothes and Hermione has thick bandage around her stomach, beneath the black fabric of her dress.
"Shall.. shall we go everyone," Henry asks. We nod and walk our way down to the town. I hated this.. because this was all our fault. If we just stayed somewhere else, this town wouldn't be hurt like this. Dolohov even said it was because of us!
Hermione rubs my arm in that soothing way that nobody else can. "What are you thinking about?" "This.. this all, all those deaths.. it's all our fault," I whisper with tears freely streaming down my face. I already gave up on concealing them.
Hermione wipes them away with her soft fingers. "It isn't your fault. One day or another this would have happened.. we can't deny that and that's why we trained. There are deaths but relatively very less. That was because we have trained for this. This isn't your fault Draco, neither mine or that of your parents!"
Before I can protest she kisses me. "And now shut up about that, okay love?" I nod quickly, obeying my fiancée.
We enter the heart of the town and a couple of white wooden coffins stand on small platforms. There were beautiful flowers layed down on each one of them. Hermione hugs me around my waist and we watch the funeral going on. A lot of people cry, me included.
"Everything will be fine," she whispers in my ear. I nod and bury my nose in her hair. The delicious scent of roses and candy. "I don't think so love.. we have to fight in this war, don't we?" "We will, but we will win, because we have something to fight for."

"What is it?" "Love.. and our son. Our little family." I kiss her head and close my eyes, enjoying the intense moment.
"I already told the others a war is coming. They all want to fight, you know why?" I shake my head as reply. "Because they also have something to fight for, something they want to defend. Their family, their loved ones.. even the dead people in those coffins. We will all fight against You-Know-Who."
"Why are you saying that name again?" "Because the barrier is broken so we can't defend ourselves anymore?" "Oh.. yeah, that makes sense."
We walk back to the villa and everyone begins to pack their stuff. We would send Scorpius to Grimmauld Place 12, together with Fleur and her newborn daughter with Bill, Victoire. She would care for him while we would fight and eventually Andromeda Tonks would join them with little Teddy Lupin.
Lily begins to cry when we really have to leave. Henry tells her they will return after the fight and hugs his daughter. I look at my parents, my son and my fiancée. Hermione wipes a tear away. I kiss her head for the so maniest time that day.
"Well.. shall we leave," Henry with a gobbet in his throat. We nod and Apparate to Grimmauld Place. There is Bill just kissing his wife goodbye. When he sees us he smiles slightly.
"Hello Hermione, Malfoys, how are you all?" "We just came back from a mass funeral Bill.. how would we feel?" "I'm.. I'm so sorry for your loss," Bill replies, his smile fading away instantly.
"Thank you Bill," Hermione whispers. Narcissa hands Scorpius over to Fleur. She smiles slightly at us and looks then at me and Draco. "Do you want to say goodbye?"

Hermione and I walk over to our son and Hermione kisses his forehead. "Goodbye little man, if something happens to us.. always remember mummy and daddy love you," she says, her voice full with emotion.
I press her to my chest and she begins to cry out loud. I kiss Scorpius on his head and mumble some words to him. Then.. it was really time to say goodbye. It was 1st of May now and tomorrow we would join Potter and his crew.
Yes, really exciting..

RakhtaBhushan (Blood Ornament)
[This book has been contracted elsewhere, which is why I am not updating any more. Please contact me if you want to continue reading the story.] God King Arya defeats Agni Asura Yaman. Two hundred years later, Asura Yaman reincarnates as golden prince, Suryadev, of RakhtaPrastha. Once he comes of age, a darkness begins to lurk in his dreams. Flashbacks from his past life erode his mind, his fate "unforeseen by the gods." As he seeks to heal, his path entwines with Vidyut, his long time rival. Hardened by the cruelties of life, Vidyut embraces the dark art of Tantra, for which he is both rejected and coveted by the people of the five kingdoms. Meanwhile, the kingdom of RakhtaPrastha is facing political turmoil and rival kingdoms, while the animosity between God King Arya and Yaman/Surya's supporter, Goddess Dimuka, is spilling into the human world. Princes, Spells, Gods, Spirits, Heaven, Mythical creatures, Wars, and Reincarnation, and so much more. It is based on Indian mythology, specifically Hindu mythology. But it is an original fantasy and focus is character arcs. It has BL/Gay content. Most Surya-Vidyut interactions are in the chapters marked Surya or Vidyut. The romance in this story is slowburn. **Daily Chapter Release** Cover Art Disclaimer: The cover art is using an image from Pinterest. The art has been kindly created by Ben Arisson.

Project from December 2019
Starting chapters are heavily invested in psychology and philosophy. A story about John Keene exploring a different world. This project is similar to 'Ex Legacy' and 'Aidan Alastair'; they follow similar plots. Ex Legacy has more of a completed feel so far - it's debatable, but you are free to read both of them: Aidan Alastair: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/31409/aidan-alastair-volume-1 Ex Legacy: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/48422/ex-legacy

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).

Magikind [Original]
The third millennia, a time of change and evolution. An era, where people, through countless generations, have evolved strange powers and abilities. Through several centuries of selective breeding, these beings, known as mages, have become part of the very foundations of society. However, some refused to change or adapt. They believed in purity and refused to interbreed with magikind. Known as the manush, they were a rarity among society. Now, in the fifth millennia, the manush are thought extinct. With magikind ruling the world, a three-way war grips society. In these uncertain times, a manush called Gin, will herald a new era for all Magikind. A story of how man could realistically evolve while still pushing boundaries. Disclaimer: Chapters will be edited once the first volume is done. Bear the beginning for the time being, and hopefully you can see my writing improving over time (I've learnt a lot on how to write because of this (though I'm still not perfect :P)) Proud Member of Writers to the End, WriTE The link to the pledged fictions PS. If you find the 'notes' too boring or too info-dumpy, feel free to skip them and just read the main chapters. They're there for the reader to understand Gin's world (written in the perspective of Gin). But later on, we can see some interactions between the main characters and the occasional references to his past in the notes, so it has its purpose.
