《The Guy Named Harrison: Book One》92
Advertisement
Harrison unlocked his phone and checked the score of the Steelers and Patriots AFC Championship game. The Steelers were winning by 3 with only a few seconds left in the game.
"Wow. This is about to be an upset."
Carrie stood beside him and watched as the clock hit 0. "Looks like we're getting the Steelers."
"Damn. I kinda wanted to embarrass Brady again."
She playfully pushed him. "Don't forget, they did mount the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history last year."
"This is really a big upset. The Pats were predicted to win by 73%."
"Well you guys got Pittsburgh. So be ready."
Harrison headed upstairs followed by Carrie. She quickly changed and climbed in bed next to Gary and Wilson. A few minutes later, Harrison came out of the bathroom having just showered.
She couldn't help but laugh when she saw his hair. He just dried it and it was tousled all over the place and it was really frizzy. "What?"
Carrie kept laughing. "Your hair."
He ran his fingers through his hair to poof it up a little more. "Is that better?"
"No. It's really not."
Harrison turned and headed back into the bathroom from what Carrie assumed, to comb his hair. He came out a minute later with it freshly combed to its normal side.
"How's it look now?"
"A lot better."
Harrison then crawled into bed beside her. "So about this Super Bowl, where are we going?"
"Minneapolis."
"Where's that?"
He broke out laughing. "Are you serious?"
Carrie playfully punched him. "Its late. I'm tired."
He was still laughing. "Wow."
"It's in Minnesota right?"
"Yeah. We're going to play where the Vikings play."
She nodded as he added, "it's really nice because that stadium is like brand new."

"Really?"
"They had a metrodome before. Then they tore it down because it deflated and put a new stadium in its place. We played in it for the first time last year and it was pretty cool."
"When do we leave?"
"Wednesday morning."
"That's only in 2 days!"
Harrison nodded. "Get packing."
"I hope I have enough time to pack. I don't pack fast."
"You'll be fine."
"What do we do with the dogs?"
"We can take them. Since my parents already said they're coming I was going to leave the dogs with them since we won't be around a lot."
Gary laid his head on Carrie's lap. "Do you want to go to Minnesota Gary?"
He stuck his tongue out the side of his mouth getting Harrison and Carrie to laugh.
"Gary, you're something else."
As Carrie pet her dog, Harrison reached for his phone and called Luke. He put it on speaker so Carrie could hear as well.
"How ya doing?" Harrison asked.
"Good. They said I don't have a concussion."
"That's great!"
"They said I should take the next two days off just to be safe and resume practice activities when we get there."
"Did you hear we got Pittsburgh?"
"Yeah. Let's get them back."
Harrison smiled. He knew what Luke was referring to. The Steelers beat them by 3 in the fourth preseason game earlier this year.
"They're gonna be good."
"I'm ready."
After saying goodnight to Luke, Harrison plugged in his phone and rolled over and wrapped Carrie up in his arms. "It's going to be an exciting two weeks."
"I can't wait."

To Burn a Kingdom
It has been centuries since Gods and Angels forsook the world of Ashaari, leaving its people Faithless and divided as Magic begins to fade. But some of their powers still remain, embedded deep in the earth as rare Gems and sometimes, in blood. Wars are waged and fought over these Gems, for what little Magic they provide. But now, a new prophecy has arisen. The Angels will return and with them, comes Magic and hysteria. - In the kingdom of Illya, Princess Arellia Virtris lives a life of opulence but she is miserable; a caged puppet whose strings are controlled by the members of her court. She yearns for the freedom she may never have but is bound by the prophecy to serve her kingdom and the Faith. But when her brother—the crown prince Vasilis— suddenly arranges an unfavourable marriage, her life begins to spiral out of her control. On the other side of the continent, mercenary Dillon Azshker jumps thoughtlessly from battle to battle. He lives only for the coin he earns and booze to drown the sorrows of his past. Life has left him dispirited save for one last reckless campaign that he hopes would end it all. As fate— or perhaps, bad luck—would have it, on the night of summer solstice, the lives of these two unfortunate souls are intertwined as they find themselves caught in the dark webs of politics and sinister schemes. When they meet and tragedies unfold, their decisions will ultimately trigger a series of events that will alter the course of history. *** Warning: This novel is grimdark and will contain descriptions that some readers may find disturbing.

LiNa's Ten-Winged Cultivation
LiNa was just an average teenage girl, who one day got hit by a flower pot right on the head. How “lucky” was that? When LiNa woke up, she was not in a hospital bed but an unknown world full of demons, mythical creatures, endless danger, and…lots of sweet potatoes. Oh, she ended up in the Land of Ruins which was one of the most barren places on this so-called Aniesian Continent, and forced herself to forget the taste of meat. She was on the way to exchange for some sweet potatoes when came across a dead young man. In a crazy blizzard, she used almost every single cell in her body to drag him home, leaving a trail of red blood across the fluffy snow, which later on…he rewarded her with a stick on the head! Right on the same spot where the flower pot hit her. Never have I seen such an ungrateful person! Better not let me see him again! And guess what? He was very much stuck with her for some time, or even....the rest of her life. How could LiNa survive these harsh conditions, babysit that icy-cold-face person, and overcome all the challenges to become a legendary ten-winged immortal?
