"Hey, Christian, someone's here for you.."
"Oh, fuck.." Christian said under his breath, noticing that a girl he had invited out from a date weeks ago was standing by the steps of the dugout. Viviana looked confused, getting up and looked at her.
"Who are you?" She asked the girl, looking at her.
"Here for Christian, who are you?" She replied back in a snotty tone.
Viviana crossed her arms, "His girlfriend..?" She rose an eyebrow.
"Oh, he told me he didn't have one anymore.." The girl shrugged. Viviana froze; Christian was seeing someone else? When he had just said how bad he wanted her back? It wasn't true.
"Why the fuck are you here? He obviously doesn't want anything to do with you if he's coming over to my place and trying to fix our relationship.." Viviana spat back, biting her lip to stop herself from saying anything else. "Y'know what? Forget it." She shook her head, pushing past the girl and walked into the clubhouse hallway in tears.
Christian ran for Viviana, grabbing her arm when he caught up to her, "Vi..Stop, I can explain.."
Viviana yanked her arm away, looking at Christian with hurt in her eyes and tears streaming down her cheeks. "Explain what, Christian!? The fact that you are fucking seeing someone else when you just said you want to work on us?! When you literally were just over the other night wanting to work on things, and kissed me?!" Viviana exclaimed, shaking her head. "I can't believe I let my walls down for you again.." She mumbled.
"Viv, stop. I don't have any attraction towards her. We went for drinks and then I invited her out to watch a game, but not like in the dugout like how you do.." He said, Viviana avoided eye contact with him.
Viv took a deep, shaky breath, sniffling. "Why didn't you tell her that you were with your girlfriend again..?" She asked, her voice cracking and sad.

Christian looked at her and just frowned. "Because it was when we weren't even speaking to one another, Vi. I met with her maybe two weeks after we broke up? I don't know if it's because you posted something or I posted something.." He explained, grabbing Vi's hands, which were shaking and hesitant to be in his.
"But you still let her come?" She looked at him, Christian wiped under her eyes. "I never ever saw you as a person to do this, Christian...It hurts."
"I think you and I were both trying to move on from one another and it's obvious we can't. It's obvious we're attached at the hip. I haven't spoken to her in weeks, don't know why she showed up. I'll ask them to tell her to leave. I don't want you going, though.." Christian said, giving her hands a squeeze. "I want you here. With me. I don't care about anyone else. You're my number one priority, you're my girl, and I want you to know that."
Vivi stayed silent for a moment, just nodding and then moved in to wrap her arms around Christian's torso, resting her head on his chest. "I'm not letting you go again..." She said quietly. He wrapped his arms around her, rubbing her back and just swayed back and forth for a moment before pulling away from the hug slightly and looked at her.
"I am not going anywhere, Vi..." Christian replied, kissing her head.
Lo and Ryan both walked into the hall to see where the two had gone off to. "Hey, everything alright?" Ryan asked, walking up to Christian.
Christian nodded, "Yeah. Just a mishap. I'll explain to you guys later.." He wiped under Viviana's eyes again. The guys nodded and patted his back before walking back to the dugout.
Viviana looked at him, sniffling. "Is my makeup a mess?" She asked, wiping under her eyes again. "I don't wanna go out looking like a raccoon.." She commented, causing Christian to chuckle quietly.

"It's not too bad, just some on under your eyes, but I'm sure you could fix it quick." He replied, keeping his arms around her. "Why don't you go clean up and then meet me back by the locker room?" He suggested as Vivi nodded and walked into the bathroom to clean up her face.
*************
After the game, Viviana waited by the lounge for Christian. She still couldn't believe what had happened during batting practice and she just wished it was a stupid nightmare in her head. She pulled her phone out of her pocket, texting her sister;
figuring out what i'm doing with him after this game. he's changing.
also met some girl he took out for drinks a couple weeks ago...that was an event.
wait .. pause, some girl?
why was she there?
apparently he invited her weeks ago
but she decides to show now?
after i post something related to chris?
after he posted something too?
she was trying to get under ur skin, twin.
how did christian explain it?
just that they went for drinks weeks after we broke up.
which is fine, he was trying to get over the relationship
but he said it was too hard to let go.
well, i hope u work things out
if u need anything, u know where i am. love u
The moment she locked her phone, Christian walked out of the locker room wearing some sweats and a black hoodie, walking towards Vi with a small smile on his face.
"I figured you and I could go grab a bite to eat and then maybe go back to my place? Or yours, I'm fine with either." Christian said, grabbing Viviana's hand.
"Probably my place...If that's okay. Just...not ready to go back to ou-...your place yet.." Viviana admitted, catching her slip up.
Christian nodded, looking at her, "Understandable." He replied, "Your bed's comfier than mine anyways." He laughed and unlocked his car, opening the passenger door for Viviana as she climbed in. Christian got in the driver's seat and drove off. "What do you want for dinner..?" He asked, glancing at Viviana, who was looking at her phone.
She tapped her chin, then looked at him, "Taco Bell?" She asked with a big smile on her face, knowing Christian would groan because it's 'out of his diet'. He groaned, nodding and laughed.
"Yeah, we can go there. You know how I feel about that place.." Viviana giggled, grabbing his free hand as he drove. "But, since you love it so much, we can go get some.." He said, bringing her hand to his lips and kissed it lightly.
Viviana missed moments like these; Driving in the car after a game to grab some dinner, and laughing about silly little things while some music played in the background. She loved when he would grab her hand and kiss it, or put his hand on her thigh while he drove, just gave her goosebumps all up and down her body. Something about his touch was melting to Viv.
Viv's phone was connected to the aux, she sang to the music that played. Her and Christian loved listening to Russ, perfect for any mood. She looked over at Christian as she sang all cute and obnoxiously. The song changed and it was 'Moonlight in Atlanta', a song she had showed Christian a while back and essentially called it, 'their song'. She was still holding his hand when she started filming a video on Snapchat, showing their hands and then moved her phone to show Christian, who kissed her hand again and she put the camera on herself, smiling bigger than ever.
She definitely found her happiness again.

Yin-Yang
Mages in North America seem to have it all – typically from well-off families, and able to manipulate their environment in ways most of the world would never believe. They don’t even have to bother with the mundane details of life like housework, thanks to their sensitives, who also make a useful source for extra magical energy. After all, sensitives have no use for it themselves, and if mages weren’t meant to make use of it, then the sensitives would obviously have some way to prevent that. That a mage can transform a sensitive physically, with no restrictions beyond overall mass and basic biological viability, whereas magic tends not to work directly on any other living thing, is only further proof. And look at the way they live on their own, barely a step above animals. It’s better for them to belong to a mage. Sensitives in North America live on the edge of society and survival – typically so paranoid they avoid hospitals and anything else that could lead to being tracked, many of them with little or no education and no legal identity or existence. Mages exist, and mages want sensitives for some reason, but no one ever comes back to explain what that reason is. Waiting every day for the hunters to notice them doesn’t lead to much motivation or hope for the future. And once they’re captured, they’re the property of someone with a terrifying amount of power over them. Anything is better than capture. Mages are born to be the masters, and sensitives are born victims. Or are they? Jax’s life is turned upside-down when he’s caught by the hunters and sold to a mage. Andreas is still mourning for his previous sensitive, though, unconsciously creating a difficult standard for Jax to live up to, all the more so while still struggling to come to terms with this new reality as Andreas’ sensitive. A runaway sensitive isn’t what Van expects at the mental health centre. Is this a hunter trap, set for him and the rest of the Donovan family by the hunters? The hunters would, after all, love to see them cross the line openly and finally do something they can be charged with. Either way, Miranda’s genuinely in trouble, and he can’t just abandon her to it. Snatching a sensitive out from under the hunters and hiding her is odd behaviour for a mage – but then, Catherine is an odd mage, living in disgrace in the old servants’ quarters of her grandmother’s house, responsible for cooking and housework. Lila owes Catherine her freedom; is there a way to help Catherine achieve her own, and at what price? Tension is building between traditionally-minded mages and those advocating change, and something has to break. *** Yin-Yang includes a small amount of profanity and no graphic sex or on-screen physical violence. However, sex and gender roles and relationships within the mage/sensitive subculture are non-traditional in mainstream North American terms. The key criterion in a primary relationship is not relative sex or gender, but the pairing of mage and sensitive; given the transformation of sensitives by their mages, physical sex is non-absolute for a sensitive, and gender identity can vary as in anyone else. *** *** The way mages treat sensitives is extremely varied and, in some cases is outright abusive. The struggle against that is pretty much the point of the book. It is NOT grimdark or misery-porn! However, if you will be triggered by this, please, don't read Yin-Yang! *** Complete stand-alone novel, 153K words! Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.

Children of the Halo
A thousand years have passed since the signing of the Pact: an historic agreement between the nations of the Pactlands to work for the betterment of the whole. But in recent years, the Empire of Vector has been growing more bold, submitting a claim for the long-contested Disputed Lands. When a young and inexperienced noblewoman ventures into the anarchic territories the residents call the Free Lands in an effort to discover what Vector is plotting, the last thing she expected to find was a City of Wonders. On a fateful summer morning, the Vancouver Island town of Ladysmith, British Columbia, Canada finds itself and its very residents thrust sideways from the world they know to the medieval Pactlands: a world ruled by a shadowy council of mages and governed by the laws of steel and influence. Cut off from their own world, the residents of this small cottage town are thrust knee-deep into the political, humanitarian and martial turmoil suffered by the residents of the Free Lands. Staring down the threat of the Vectoran claimant force, the hidden machinations of the High Magus Council, and desperately seeking the allies and resources they need to maintain their way of life, the residents of Ladysmith must use everything they have at their disposal to survive and claim their own place in a world they were not born to. Magic, intrigue and eight thousand Canadians. What could go wrong? Updates every Tuesday and Thursday.
