- Alexis Reed -
The sunshine boring against my face.
I snapped my eyes open, wincing.
"Oh god, I still want to sleep." I grunted, but decided I couldn't sleep anymore once I've woken up from my deep slumber.
I did my morning routine and heard my stomach grumble.
I went downstairs in the kitchen greeting Cathy a "Good morning".
She's fixing breakfast and so I took my mug and boiled some coffee in the coffee pot.
I sat on one of the seats in the dining table and Cathy followed.
"How's your sleep?" Cathy asked, spreading orange marmalade on her toast.
"It's good, I guess." I smiled, taking a sip of my mug of black coffee.
I searched for Eve but she's nowhere to be found.
"Where's Eve?" I asked.
"On a date with Danny. It's been a while she's been out with him." Cathy chuckled.
"That's... nice." I snickered knowing how much Eve wants to have a date with Danny however didn't get the chance to.
"So any plans for today?" Cathy asked, taking a bite of her toast.
"I... I don't think I have plans for today." I shrugged.
"Oh? Well then, we can stay at home or hang out later if you want?" Cathy giggled. "I've always wanted a new manicure."
I chuckled and simply nodded my head in response.
Somehow, I'm liking Cathy.
She became the mother I once had.
"Speaking of which! There's a delivery for you!" Cathy says, snapping her fingers and leaving the dining room.
Delivery?
But I didn't order anything.
The next thing I know, Cathy came back inside the kitchen holding a bouquet of pastel-colored tulips.
"It's for you. I don't know who sent them though. Maybe there's a card." Cathy smiled, giving the bouquet to me.
"Thanks." I replied, taking it from her.
I searched for the card and flipped it open. There's no name though.
To: Alexis
You're beautiful. :-)
Meet me at Central Academy, 5pm.
I'll be waiting.
Truly yours, ❤
My heart skipped a beat. I like mysteries like this.
Plus, I love the flowers.
"Cathy, looks like I have plans today." I smiled faintly, putting away the flowers.
"That's a shame. We'll hang out next time then. Have fun." Cathy smiled back.
I don't know why my heart is hammering on my chest.
Somehow, this kind of mystery-- I feel like it's going to be Darren.
We haven't talked lately but.. I feel like he's going to tell me another story of my past.
I happily skipped to my room and raged my closet.
Oh, what to wear? :/
* Eve Cadillac *
It's been a while I had a date with Danny and I'm growing nervous.
Danny swerved the car and we landed on a nice spot in the parking.
The trip was completely silent and I just pray Alexis to forgive me for not telling her about the date!
He pulled over but he's not moving.
The next thing I know, he stopped the car and took me by the arm.
"W-What...?" I asked confused.
He didn't respond but his gaze is trailing down my lips. I did the same and oh god, they look so kissable right now.
He leaned in and I puckered up my lips ready for his kiss.
The next thing I know, he looked away and got out of the car.
I was left stunned.

Hey! I was expecting something here!
My eyes followed him as he opened the car door for me.
What the heck is wrong with Danny?
I decide to just get out of the car and follow him behind.
For Pete's Sake! He's not even holding my hand! We're like... walking side by side.
This is so frustrating.
We went to fall in line because we're planning to watch a movie.
While waiting, I bit my lip and decided to be extra playful.
My arms wrapped around his neck and I felt him shiver against my touch.
"Danny.." I said in a sultry tone. "Why are you so quiet today?"
Danny's eyes once again trailed down my lips and then to my chest and then back to my lips.
He slowly unwrapped my arms from his neck and he grunted.
"Eve, there are a lot of people watching..."
Say what?
Since when did Danny care about the people watching?
The last time I checked, he wants to do what he wants and he doesn't care about what people would think.
"That's not the Danny I know." I hissed, crossing my arms on my chest and not minding him.
He bought the tickets in silence and I was observing him.
Something's wrong.
Something's definitely wrong here!
I just watched him, trying to analyze his moves but I got nothing.
He bought the popcorn and sodas and the weird part? He bought two sets.
We usually share a big bucket of popcorn and an extra large Coke.
Now he wants to eat it separately?!
I can't take this anymore.
I took hold of his two shoulders making him raise one brow.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked.
"N-Nothing." He shrugged.
"Oh, there's definitely something." I hissed.
"I said it's nothing." He insisted, "Let's go. We'll be late for the movie."
I decided to just let him be.
I don't know what's up but he'll tell me soon.
We entered the movie house and I decided to make my move.
The lights went off and I slowly leaned on his shoulder.
I felt him frozen and then he tooks hold of his arm and stretches it.
Of course, by default, I stopped leaning since he's stretching his arm.
He's doing this on purpose.
I groaned internally and chewed my popcorn vigorously, taking large gulps of my Coke.
I often steal glances of Danny but his gaze never left the movie screen.
Really? Does he like this movie that much to ignore me?!
Truthfully, when we go watch a movie, we just make out or something.
Right now, he avoided my touch! Twice!
I was growing irritated but I wanted to try once more.
If my prediction is correct, he wants to break up with me.
I inched near him and slapped his popcorn bucket making it fall to the ground.
He was shocked and surprised.
I took his Coke, opening the top cover and drinking all of it like a maniac. I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand.
"A-Are you alright..?" Danny questioned.
"Oh, I am. Are you!?" I spat. "You avoided my touch twice now. Okay? Twice! Don't you get I'm trying to seek your attention?"
He fell silent and glanced back at me, his blue eyes piercing my soul.
"I've had it." I say, pulling the collars of his shirt and unbuttoning the top buttons.
"D-Don't do this." He stuttered.

"I had enough of you." I say, tears welling up my eyes.
I took him by the collar and slammed our lips together.
Our lips collided and somehow, it's like they match.
I moved my lips passionately against his but he seems reluctant.
He kissed me back and the next thing I know, we're making out.
"S-Stop..." He muttered under his breath.
I didn't budge and continued kissing him.
"S-S-Stop it this instant.." He says a bit louder.
He pushed me away and my eyes were glassy.
"I can't believe this, Danny!" I sobbed.
"Eve... I..."
"You do want to break up with me." I bawled.
"What? I didn't --"
"I don't want to hear anything from you anymore! I should've known! You didn't want to kiss me. You don't want me anymore." I sobbed.
I stood up from my seat, smoothening the creases from my jeans and running off like a little kid.
The movie isn't finished yet but I don't care.
I want to go home.
I don't want to have a date if it's only going to be like this.
I don't want to hear those hurtful words he's going to say.
I don't want you anymore.
I'm sorry...
Let's break up.
No, I'm saving myself from hearing those words come out from his mouth.
I sobbed, having no place to go.
Screw Danny! He didn't even follow me when I left.
Since he brought his car, I don't have a ride.
I'll take the bus then.
This, by far, is the worst date I ever went to.
- Alexis Reed -
It's almost 5 in the afternoon and I decided on wearing a simple spaghetti top and some jeans.
We're going to our school after all.
I remember it as the school I went to when I was in middle school.. and some of my high school days are spent here.
I let down my hair and smiled at what I'm seeing.
"I'm so hot." I winked at
my reflection in the mirror.
I curled the ends of my brown hair and went down the stairs.
I checked my watch and it's 4:30pm.
Great, I'm just in time.
And so, I took the bus.
It was a fifteen minute drive to the school.
When I got there, I still have a couple of minutes to spare before 5.
There wasn't much people since it's a Sunday.
At first, the guard won't let me in the campus so I did some sneaking out and found my way in.
Infact, I remember sneaking out a lot of times when I feel like not going to school.
I remember my parents kept telling me to enjoy my life as a student because it's harder to work and look for a decent job if I don't do well.
It made me smile, thinking of such little gestures about my parents.
They care about me.
A tear sprung on my cheek and I quickly wiped it away.
How I wish they didn't die that early...
I wanted to have a normal life--
I'm still young...
I was walking around the dark hallway and lobby when I spotted a figure.
A strange shadow.
It was scary... the shadow looks as if it's following me.
I was so scared I decided to walk faster but it's still there.
It seems to run after me-- I can't keep up at all.
Where's the light?
How come the lobby seems to be darker and darker.
I wanted to shout--
No, nobody would hear me....
I'm all alone.
I'm frightened.
That's when I felt someone grab hold of my waist and cover my mouth.
I whimpered but my throat was dry.
"Shhhh!" He whispered in my ear.
It sent shivers down my spine but I couldn't move.
That's when I felt his hand playing with the hems of my shirt.
Oh my god.
I wanted to scream so bad.
"Do you remember the time we skip classes and go to this exact same spot?" He asked.
I nodded my head obediently.
Yes, I remember clearly...
God, I missed him so much.
I missed his scent.
"We would go to this spot since there's no distraction... and the place is dark. We would do really naughty things in this place." He says, kissing my neck.
How come I can't run?
You're free. He's not attacking you.
How come I missed his touch?
How come I wanted to be touched by him so badly?
"It's all in the past now. Don't do this." I say, mustering the courage to push him away.
"You don't want to do this?" He asked, his eyes piercing my soul.
I don't, right?
Do I?
I was about to walk away when he took hold of my wrist.
His grip is not even tight so I can push him away if I wanted to.
I can run if I wanted to.
That's when he crashed my lips on mine.
His lips taste the same.
Soft and luscious--
I kissed him back-- Why? Why am I doing this?
I tugged on his hair as I wrapped my legs around his waist.
He pushed me against the wall and kissed me harder.
I straddled on his waist, a moan escaping from his lips.
He trailed down hot kisses on my body and I couldn't push him away.
"I know you're liking this." He playfully whispered in my ear.
He quickly took off my top and played with my fresh, perky skin.
"I'm not--" I denied but my bothy stated otherwise.
"You do."
After a few minutes, I was gasping of air.
I couldn't believe myself.
Hot tears were rolling down my cheeks.
I took my clothes from the floor and quickly dressed myself.
He left a while ago and I was naked, lying on the floor, my mind flashing those images of him and me in my head.
I bawled and cried my eyes out.
Carson....
Carson and I did it.
I had the chance to stop it but I didn't.
I opened my cellphone and dialed a number.
I shouldn't be calling him.
I have no shame.....
After sleeping with a guy, I'm here, helplessly calling another guy to comfort me.
What am I?
I'm a monster...
"Hello?"
Darren picked up rather quickly than I expected.
I didn't say anything at first, letting my tears roll down my cheeks.
"Alexis...? Are you prank calling me?"
Darren...
He's such a sweet guy... and yet...
Knowing Carson tried to rape me I still--
Ugh. I shuddered in disgust.
I'm disgusted with myself.
"Darren... please come here..." I whimpered, my lips quivered.
"Where are you?" He asked worriedly.
**
Okay, not the best chapter I could come up with.
I'm sorry with that. -,-
Please forgive me, my dear fans!
Lately, I'm exhausted.
I don't know why but I just am.
Anyway, what's wrong with Danny? what's wrong with Alexis??
Any comments?
Send some love
Love,
x
me. :)

God Slaying System
Issac was known to be one of the strongest players of Blue Sky City. During the initial stages of the start of The Heavenly Domain, he had already gained a lot of power and was going to become even stronger then the guild leader. But, he was betrayed by the guild leader as he feared he would be more powerful then himself and was killed until he got back to level 0. Heck, they even stripped him of his 'Sword of Heroes' that he got from completing the Diamond Ranked quest and took it away. After all that, he was banished from the guild left with nothing. Now, he could not even compete for being strong as he was. That was the time he found the God Slayer Temple. After this encounter, he was no longer the same as before. The main point is that I got the inspiration to write this novel by reading the novel “Reincarnation of The Strongest Sword God”. So, you may find some minor similarities but, well the story is completely different and the ideas are mine. So, enjoy reading my novel. This novel is also available on Webnovel under the same name. The updates on the novel are a bit faster there.
