《Chances of Death: Seven Decks Book I》Book 2 - Chapter 80: Lord Deathless
Advertisement
The big jackass who demanded to be called, Lord Deathless, hollered at Deck Director Copton of the Acid Guild, “Hey, Director Fuck-turd! Move it with our robes!” The Director kept a smile on his face as he motioned for his men to take clothing to their guild's Fourth-Deck Guild droppers, and replied, “Yes, Lord Deathless”.
The Director thought to himself, “I wish I could fucking kill these four assholes. All they do is show up every ten years taking whatever they want. The other deck droppers in his party are all still incapacitated from mana withdrawal, but Lord Dumbass always drops without losing much of his strength or energy.” The Director continued to seethe inwardly as he thought, “Lord Deathless, what a fucking stupid name! Thankfully we will only have to suffer through a couple of days of the braggart telling everyone about how unkillable he is before they head off to the Oracle Deck.”
“Shithead! Why isn’t Soup Bowl here!” demanded Lord Deathless as he looked around.
Director Copton gestured toward the tall elf standing next to him and replied, “Soup Bowl Bob is in hiding. I have hired Aston Rosen, Associate Elf Mage Tracker, to help us locate him as soon as your party recovers from their Deck drop.” The Director was sick at the cost of hiring the Elf Mage Tracker for these asshole deck droppers, but he knew without the tracker they might kill him for his failure to present Soup Bowl to them. As much as he hated these droppers, he couldn't deny their power.
Lord Deathless went into a rage when he realized Soup Bowl Bob was missing. He spent about 5 minutes slapping around the guild guards and the Director.
Director Copton was on the ground, bleeding from his nose, ears, and eyes, just waiting for the stomp that was surely heading for his head, and ending his life. Director Copton knew this was an inner guild matter, and the City Lord wouldn’t intervene if the dropper killed him. He could only hope guild politics would stop the brute from kicking his head in completely.

Finally, Lord Deathless stopped beating on the guards and the Director. He then picked up the director by his robes, and while spitting in his face said, “Take care of the rest of my party, and you better hope this mage can lead me to Soup Bowl.”
During his tantrum, Lord Deathless made sure not to injure or even touch the Elf Mage. Even he was not willing to offend the Elf Mages. Lord Deathless threw the Director back onto the ground, looked over at the mage, and asked, “are you ready to lead me to Bob?”
The Elf simply nodded his head and turned to lead the way, while thinking, “I knew I should have charged more.”

Incursions
This blurb concerns Incursions book 1: Incarceration. If you could buy superhuman abilities, but they might kill you—or worse—would you do it? Ten years ago, in a world not so different from our own, people with powerful abilities appeared. The new powers were dangerous, dangerous to acquire—dangerous to have—dangerous to wield. World governments raced to find and eradicate the abilities and those who possess them while using the media to rule by fear. Whereas corporations sought to exploit the abilities for profit. Raz Owens was living the dream - a rising star at a job he enjoys, a girlfriend he loves, but it all comes crashing down when Raz disregards his late father's advice. He is pulled into a chaotic underworld of clandestine labs, shadow organizations, and super-powered criminals. Used as a human test subject in a place where few survive the day, he must last long enough to escape. His only advantage? A power that seems nearly useless—a heads-up display. Contains: monsters, violence, death, dismemberment, gamelit, superpowers, superpower consequences, good guys, bad guys, good guys who might be bad guys, bad guys who think they are good guys, good guys that might go bad, bad guys that might turn good, guns for hire, competence, incompetence, continence, incontinence, conspiracies, and some of what I just said wasn't true. This story is written in third person limited POV. That means you can expect to know many of the thoughts and inner dialog of one character, and only see the actions of other characters. This POV does include scenes without the main character, and thus the reader can and will know things the main character does not. Further, this means characters act on what they know, which is almost always less than the reader knows. Something else to know. These books do not hold your hand. If you're reading it and thinking "Gosh, why aren't 'they' doing some 'obvious' thing." Bad news. You probably missed something that explains exactly that. If you're seeking a light read that doesn't ask much of you as the reader, you're invited and very welcome to come on in, but this might not be the story for you.

Nowhere to Run
Nina is a young priestess that just started her journeys in the Highlands, in a faraway land. But everything falls apart when greater forces are scheming and unknown men are suddenly after her. She will have no choice but to resort to her wits, make unexpected allies, and navigate her way through unforgiving lands in order to survive. Will she be up to the task? Greetings, reader! First of all, thank you for taking an interest and read my story. This is a story I've been working through all my life. But since I'm a first-time writer, I wanted to start with something small. This is just a small part of something much greater that hopefully one day I'll be able to translate into words as well. I will try to make it interesting as possible but please bear with me. Please understand that English is not my native language, I worked really hard to write in English the best I could. So please if you find any typos and grammar errors let me know. I'll try to upload new chapters as soon as I can. Although I had originally planned to deliver a chapter a MONTH, I think the real estimate would be a chapter EVERY 3 MONTHS since I also have to earn the daily bread. Cover picture made by me. The background picture is from Google but I modified it enough from the original. The story is also available on Wattpad, Inkitt, Scribblehub, and Webnovel.
