《Other Worldly - Magi Fanfiction》Chapter 50 - Sleepless Night

"So you were acting like that because of what Mei told you?" I asked him, with a bit of blush on my face. I would need to go talk to my friend to see exactly what she told him, cause some thing I'm sure he would not want to know about.
"Well it also makes sense," he said, "We're similar in that regard." I jumped into bed next to him, once again ignoring the fact he was naked. You'd think I'd be used to it at this point.
"Sin here's a little fact you should learn," I sighed, grabbing his hand and giving it a kiss, "I need to put on an act around everyone but you. You are the only person who knows the true me." His eyes lit up like an excited child.
Arms reached out and wrapped themselves around me, pulling me into his chest. "I love you," he whispered into my neck. I flinched as I felt his tongue graze against my skin.
"Sin," I complained, rushing to push him away. "I'm not in the mood." This didn't stop him from climbing on top of me nd nipping at my neck. I sighed in irritation. He gets like this after he has been stressed. I guess planing everything for the proposal had been getting to him.
I did I quick manover, so that Sin was face down in the bed and I was straddling his hips. Of course there was still a blanket covering his lower half. "Ady, what are you doing?" Sin asked, sounding a bit worried.
"Just relax," I told him in a soothing voice. I brushed his hair out of my way and pushed the palms of my hands into his shoulder blades. He let out a releasing sigh as I applied even more pressure. My hands worked up against his smooth back. There wasn't one place on this man that wasn't muscular. Not long after I started the massage I could here his small snores and I claimed off his back to lay down next to him.

He looked so peaceful there sleeping, hugging a pillow into his face. I tried to fall asleep for the total of five minutes, but my mind wouldn't shut up long enough for me to even get the least bit tired. I sat up. I turned to look at my swords that I had leaning against the wardrobe, where all my clothes had been moved to. "Hey Altezca," I called out my djinn, not scared of waking Sin, as he was a deep sleeper.
"Yes my princess?" she asked as she appeared. She gave off a soft pink glow in the dark room.
"Do you think I'm doing the right thing?" I asked, getting up out of bed and walking out to the balcony. "I mean, Aladdin had been titled Solomon's Proxy, or Reincarnation in some case. And they have all came from your fellow djinns. The few djinns have called me Solomon' s Heir, which makes sense, I'm the oldest. I would have been the one to succeed him. Am I meant to be the ruler of this world, like father was over Alma Torran? " I was looking out over the star filled night sky.
" Oh, sweet Atiyah, " Altezca sighed, pushing a loose strand of hair behind my ear. " Your father never wanted to force you into anything, everything is your choice. "
" But am I making the right one? " I repeated, "I still want to help this world, but now wherever I offer something people will think I'm just going what's best for Sindria. But I'm not." I slid down the Pilar I was leaning against and was now sitting on the ground with my knees in my face.
I was a mess of emotions. I was happy I was engaged. I was confused about what was to come. I was worried about my decisions. I was excited for the wedding. I was always an emotional mess but managed to hide it extremely well. I wasn't even sure if Sin was aware.

A hand was placed a top my head. I recognized it as Altezca's. That was her way of comforting me. "M'lady," she sighed and sat down next to me. "If I can take the ease off your mind in anyway, please tell me."
"Assure me that what I'm doing is right thing," I looked up at her and begged with pleading eyes. She gazed at me with sweet pink eyes.
A smile was spreading across her face. "Without a doubt," she assure me, "You're heart can never be wrong. Stop doubting what you know you should do." I returned a half hearted smile to her when she suddenly disappeared due to the approaching sound of feet slapping against the ground.
I turned to look at the doorway, only to shield my eyes in disgust. "Cover up Sin!" I snapped, not taking note of my volume. I was too disturbed to properly care.
"What are you doing up?" he asked in his half groggy, naked state. "The sun's gonna be up in a few hours."
"I was thinking, now I'm cringing," I informed him, "Just go back to bed I'll be there soon." I waved a hand at him as I stood up.
Sin grabbed onto the collar of my white night dress and pulled me back in. "Only if you come with," he yawned. Even for being extremely tired he was still strong. If anything he would be a good ally to have. No, bad Audria! You love him nothing less. You'll stand by his side no matter what. Just using him will only bring him and yourself pain. " You can tell me what you're think about if that will help you sleep." My fiance offered.
I shook my head and tilted my eyes down to my feet. He had forced me to lay down in bed next to him, spooning me from behind. "You should only be thinking happy thoughts," he said in a hushed voice. I felt his fingers lightly trace the rim of my ear, sending calming waves through my body. I remembered my mother in my previous life would do that when I couldn't sleep. It was always calming no matter who did it. " Everything is falling in place for us to be together." That's what he thinks.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.

Berserker- Crank Wars
Nearly 500 years have passed since the so-called apocalypse where souls dominated their control over the human vessels and grew into fierce monsters. A small frail kid saved humanity from getting wiped out of the face of the earth through his strangely powerful and unique techniques and taught them to the humans that followed him. He became a legend and humans developed special powers called cranks from his teachings. Humans couldn't procreate anymore. A very few thousands of last generation humans that remained or stayed alive by becaming crankers now constitutes the only humanity left on the planet. And they should continue to keep levelling up their cranks by slaying monsters and siphoning their souls to stay immortal and most of them tend to form teams to increase their odds. Everything was wrist-slittingly boring like that until one of those teams went ahead and mistakenly awakened the legend kid from his deep, and sound slumber. --------- One Chapter @Everyday -------------------- Unfortunately, I don't own the cover. I found it on Pinterest. And edited it a little.
