《The Academy 2》3
Advertisement
I was sitting on one of the cobblestone walls while I read the history chapter. It was really boring, but I at least had to semi understand the topic that was discussed today. Zara and I would soon have to get together so that we could work on our new project. The teacher had decided to keep the groups the same, meaning that Zara was stuck with me again. She acted like she was annoyed, but I think she secretly likes me.
"Boo!"
I screeched and fell off the wall. Much to my shock, I was rescued by two arms. Alicia giggled as she placed me back in my previous spot. She then sat next to me and pulled her knees up to her chest, as she stared at me with a grin. I narrowed my eyes at her, but that did nothing to break her facade.
"Meanie!"
"What has you so distracted?" She ignored my comment and reached for my textbook. Her eyes quickly scanned over the topics before she let out a hum. "I assume this is the thing that Zara's been bitching about."
"Ya, round 2 for our project begins soon. Watcha doin here?" She grimaced at my informality. I often did that to tease her about her formal way of speaking.
"Can't I just want to see my beautiful petite amie?" I crossed my arms at her. "Fine. I'm going on a business trip and want to know if you'd like to accompany us?"
"Who's us? And where are you going?"
"My sisters and I. And I think Japan. I wasn't really paying attention to Tamsin this morning. What do you say?" I couldn't really say no to her pleading eyes, so I nodded with a smile. "Yay! Let's go since we're already late."
"Wait! Like now?" She nodded. "But I haven't packed."
"Don't worry. Our staff has packed for us. My sisters should already be on the flight that we are extremely late for. If we don't leave now, then the entire flight will consist of Tamsin's complaints." She dragged me to an awaiting Bentley.

"Remind me why she's on this trip with us again." Tamsin exaggeratedly asked.
"Because it's a girls' trip and mom wanted us to bring the girl that-"
"Z!" Gemma cut her sister off. "It's 2021. Don't assume people's gender!" Zara looked about done with Gemma's antics. "Do you identify as a female?" Gemma asked which resulted in me slowly nodding. "Alrighty then! Carry away and you now have permission to address her using female pronouns!"

"I'm really happy you could come with us." Alicia turned to me.
"That makes one of us." Tamsin muttered.
"Weeeeeeeell, it's not like I had much of a choice." I awkwardly laughed.
"You're right. You didn't. Mother wanted us to assess the alleged 'gold digger' our sister is dating." Zara explained.
"Gold digger?" I turned to Alicia who awkwardly plead the fifth and averted her gaze.
"Z, that wasn't nice!" Gemma gently slapped her shoulder.
"But it's the truth." She countered.
"She's just trying to get under your skin. Ignore her." Ali advised me.
"We all do." Tamsin chimed from the back.
"So how long is the flight to Japan?" I tried to shift the conversation.
"Japan? I thought we were going to Singapore?" Gemma was confused.
"Nah, we're going to Beijing." Zara scrolled through her phone.
The twins began bickering about where we were actually going. Ali offered me some snacks which I was grateful for since I was a bit hungry. Tamsin looked about ready to lose it at her sisters' bickering.
"Both of you are wrong! We're going to Hong Kong! Were any of you listening to me this morning?" They answered her question by ignoring her and doing their own things. "Typical. I'm going to sleep. Do not interrupt me or invade my space." She threateningly glared at all of us before moving to the back of the jet.
"There are several beds in here, so feel free to take one when you get tired. It's gonna be a long flight." Gemma loudly yawned.
I nodded at Gemma who cutely smiled before watching something on her computer. I used the opportunity to catch up on some of my homework and subtly stare at my gorgeous girlfriend. She had quickly finished her homework and was preoccupied with some work she needed to complete before her business meeting. She'd often catch my stare and would reply with a smirk, which would make me avert my gaze and blush.
After a while, Tamsin decided to grace us with her presence. I guess she couldn't stay cooped up in the room for over 20 hours. She moved beside Ali and began discussing the negotiation plans. I gazed over and saw that Gemma had discarded her movie for paperwork. Her and Zara were debating the best approach for the production plan.

"What do you guys actually do?" They all stopped and turned to me. "Like what businesses do you do and what are your roles? It feels like you guys work full time even though you're in high school and college."
"My parents own a variety of businesses, but our main niche is in biotechnology and computer software. Z and Gemzi mainly handle the software side while Tammi and I are the biotech gurus." Gemma laughed at Ali's joke. "Our job description is kinda all over the place, but to give you an idea... I guess you could say the twins are co-CEOs of the software side while I'm the CTO and Tammi is the CFO of the biotech side." I stared in awe at the girls.
"Have you seriously never googled us?" Tamsin asked in disbelief.
"No." I quietly answered. All of them were shocked, but said nothing.
Gemma just smiled and went back to discussing the legal implications of Zara's idea. I never realized how smart Gemma really is. She acts aloof and a little air brained, but she's a shark when it comes to business. Zara and Tamsin didn't really surprise me. I expected them to be highly intelligent, but their real intelligence surpassed my expectations. Alicia had always been regarded as the smartest sister and I now understand why. Even though she wasn't "as versed on the software's side," she made great suggestions to her sisters. It seemed like they all respected Ali's opinions regarding business deals, negations, and strategies. They're all geniuses, but are actually really humble about their acuteness.
I spent the remainder of the time observing how hot Ali looked when she was focused. The girl was solving differential equations and complex programs in her head. I can't believe I fell for her "I'm dumb at math" persona.
When it was about midnight, Boston time (I'm not sure exactly where in the world we are right now), they decided to call it a night. Tamsin retired to her room. The twins decided to sleep together since Zara has, in my opinion, separation anxiety.
Ali and I were talking about random things when I let out a yawn. She chuckled and announced it was time for bed. She directed me to an empty room that had a queen sized bed. She jumped on it and beckoned me next to her. I laughed as she grabbed me by the waist and spooned me.
It didn't take long until I felt kisses on my neck. The kisses soon turned to sucking, which led to some fun things ;)
I awoke in the arms of my lovely girlfriend. I took the time to admire her angelic face. I gently twirled her golden locks in my finger and smiled. Last night was really fun. I tried to get up, but her arm was securely around my waist. It was then that I noticed I was completely naked.
"Where are you running off to?" Damn, her raspy morning voice is sexy.
"Umm... I was just gonna get something to eat."
"I agree that I'm hungry as well. Guess I must satiate my appetite." She replied before lowering herself down my body.
We ended up making ourselves presentable after a few rounds. We walked into the main room where her sisters were working. Gemma was bobbing her head along to the music coming from her air pods while Zara had Beats headphones on. She had the music blasting since I could loudly hear it. When we got closer, I observed Tamsin's scrunched up face. She turned to us and let out a disgusted scoff.
"Thank you for the free concert. I truly enjoyed hearing you moan and call my sister 'Daddy.' Word of advice, the walls are pretty thin." Zara seethed.
I felt my face heat up and I knew I was probably redder than a tomato. I heard Tamsin mutter about it being absolutely disgusting, especially when she was trying to concentrate and get work done. The only one who didn't seem fazed was Gemma who just laughed at my embarrassed state. She laughed even louder when she played the audio recording of Ali and I going at it. Ali quickly snatched her phone and deleted the recording.
Ugh! This is going to be a long trip and we haven't even landed yet. How could they even hear us over the loud engine?! I can't believe I'm THAT loud.
"Harder, daddy." Ali and I groaned when Gemma imitated me.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
