Suddenly, there was a loud crash, and the door to the conference room was kicked open. A group of men stormed into the room, their guns trained on Mr. Smithson, Risa, and Aiden."Drop your weapons and surrender," one of the men barked, his voice harsh and menacing.They were dressed in dark suits made entirely out of leather, and even though none wore masks, they carried themselves confidently despite carrying weapons capable of killing instantly should any attempt occur against either party involved. They surrounded Mr. Smithson, holding onto pistols pointed directly toward him. The leader stepped forward first, stepping between him and the others so nobody gets hurt accidentally due to stray bullets flying everywhere. This guy seems familiar…The man pulled off his black hat revealing short brown hair cut close above an angular jawline covered with stubble. Risa was the first to hiss at the familiar face, there was no way she would forget the face of her captors much less the leade
It's been a week since the incident that had happened in Feystone, and now that they were back in Collow, everything seemed back to normal. The city had returned to its usual rhythm after an unusually dense heatwave. Most of the residents were out enjoying their lives while those who weren't present were probably resting up for tomorrow morning or maybe even planning something fun they could do. It didn't take long for Aiden to notice that his presence was missed around the mansion as all his servants rushed about trying to get things done without him there; however, it wasn't until late afternoon on a quiet evening when Gregg came knocking on his door that Aiden finally decided that enough was enough and went downstairs to see what had him so excited. When he opened the front doors, he found himself face-to-face with one very happy-looking young man wearing a suit made from expensive fabric which shimmered under the sunlight shining through the windows. It took only seconds for rec
'What the fuck?!' Aiden exclaimed in his thoughts, trying his best to reel in the amount just mentioned.Gregg coughed loudly from beside Aiden who turned away from Lance momentarily, looking down at the floor as he tried not to laugh out loud at what had just happened, especially since he knew exactly what was going through Aiden's mind right now: 'That would be enough for me to buy a small building and make enough investment to gain twice as much in Draenor.' He could only imagine what would happen when Risa found out what her lover was thinking when she came home tonight—especially after hearing all this information! "I see," Aiden said calmly after regaining control of his emotions. "That's quite a sum of money, isn't it?" Aiden asked with a forced chuckle.With a quick overview of his stats he requested from Lyris, he continuously stared at it.–––––––––––[Name: Aiden Lancaster][Gender: Male][Age: 22][Level: 2][Height: 180cm][Inventory: 2][Spending Quota: $52150][Merit p
Ding! [Merit+30000]Aiden's brows twitch slightly before his eyes widen momentarily before relaxing and returning to normal: 'I guess I can use them for something useful.' After all, there wasn't any point in having them if they weren't going to be used for anything at all—especially when he could already see himself using them for more than one ability at a time—which meant he'd be getting even better upgrades soon enough if he wanted.Lance stared in shock at the alert message in his view which showed a new credit with a value of $1.5 million."Sir," Lance began nervously after taking several deep breaths trying desperately to keep control over the situation at hand as he looked up toward Aiden with wide-open eyes. "Y– you have this much..."'If I wasn't locked out of my monetary inheritance, that flimsy amount wouldn't have been able to cover my daily expenses,' Aiden thought silently while staring straight ahead into space, not bothering to look at him anymore, but instead simply
"You weren't really a hard nut to crack," Aiden deadpanned, causing Gregg's face to turn bright red."I see the way you look at her, open flirtations masked as compliments... It... It reminded me of how I used to act around her when we first met, and before we knew each other better." Aiden said quietly as he stared straight into space again without saying another word for a while, having his words sink in.I'm still scared shitless man!" He said nervously before taking several deep breaths trying desperately to calm himself before continuing. "What if she's still into you"Aiden shook his head slowly in response. "She isn't…" His voice trailed off momentarily until finally adding softly yet firmly: "She's not interested anymore... I had come clean on my umm private moments with Risa.""You what?!" Gregg exclaimed in shock, "you...""She had almost gotten a whiff of our relationship back at the penthouse two weeks ago, It's no secret that someone as smart as she is wouldn't figure it
[R-18]She stood there watching Aiden sleep with a smile on her lips as she reached down between her thighs with both hands rubbing her clit furiously as her hips swayed back and forth in time with the rhythm of the movement of her fingers against the sensitive flesh of her swollen labia. She felt the wetness of her arousal dripping down the insides of her legs and onto the floor beneath the bed where it pooled around the toes of her bare feet.Climbing onto the bed, she straddled his legs, placing one knee over his thigh, which caused his hard shaft to rub along his stomach, causing his eyelids to flutter open slightly; his eyes widened when he realized who was lying next to him—and how close their bodies were—and then he smiled widely once he recognized Risa's expression: a look of pure lust that only came from a woman's desire for sex... He knew exactly what Risa wanted now—and so did she: "Aiden..." Risa whispered softly into his ear before leaning forward and kissing him passion
"I never thought I'd be glad to be back here!" Risa muses happily after the trip has arrived in Draenor.It was relatively peaceful, most certainly not what she expected when they first left for Collow but then again… maybe it wasn't so bad being back home again; at least until now... "Where are we going anyway?" She asked Aiden who seemed lost in deep thoughts throughout their journey on foot across the city toward a small village where there were no signs of life or any other living creatures around them—not even birds or dragons flying overhead—which made her wonder if something might've happened to everyone else since none of the other members of the guild could have possibly said they knew nothing of this place."We're heading to see Mr. Smith," he replied, looking down and away from her as he walked along beside her."Oh yeah, that makes sense." Risa nodded her head, pulling on Gregg who felt uneasy about returning to the place that reminded him so much of what he had lost."Do
In an undisclosed location,Mr. Smith stood silently in the shadows watching over several people who were working diligently to complete their tasks while others were resting or eating their meals—all while wearing their normal work clothes—and yet another group were gathered together talking amongst themselves while drinking something hot to warm themselves against the cold night air—which made him wonder if they knew how close they really came to dying not long ago..."You know," one man said with a laugh after taking a sip of whatever drink he held between both hands before placing them upon his chest and looking around at everyone else present, "it's been quite some time since we've had any fun like we used to have back when it was nothing but a peaceful city." He added before turning his attention back toward a dark alleyway, "you should join us."Mr. Smith looked away as though nothing had happened. He simply stared straight ahead into space without saying anything. He wasn't in
Raymond didn't miss the nervous look in Aiden's eyes, and he gestured to the waitress, indicating for two more coffees. "Don't look so worried, Aiden," he began, leaning back in his chair. "I'm not here to stir up trouble, quite the opposite, in fact."Aiden gave a small laugh, rubbing the back of his neck. "You have a knack for popping up unexpectedly, Raymond," he said, meeting the older man's gaze. Raymond chuckled, a sound that reminded Aiden of crunching autumn leaves. "Guilty as charged," he admitted. "But it's the only way to catch you off guard, isn't it?"The two men shared a smile, the ice of formality finally beginning to thaw. When their coffees arrived, Aiden took a moment to appreciate the smell, the warmth of the cup soothing his nerves.Raymond's knowing smile widened as he caught sight of the green card. "I see you've been putting that to good use," he said, pouring a cup of coffee for Aiden. "Now tell me, how have you been?"Aiden hesitated for a moment, not sure wh
Four months had passed since their wedding, and it had been nothing short of bliss. Aiden recalled, a month after his marriage, he had the privilege of being the best man at Gregg's wedding to Zin. It was another day of joy and friendship, another day of unforgettable memories. As he watched his friend recite his vows, he couldn't help but feel a sense of profound happiness. It was as if life had come full circle, their shared dreams finally coming true.Now, Aiden found himself in the grandeur of his living room, the plush furnishings reflecting his luxurious lifestyle. His gaze lingered on a group photo from his own wedding that hung on the wall, the silver frame capturing the raw, unfiltered happiness of that day. James, the ever-loyal butler, had snapped the photo, capturing a moment of pure joy, their faces alive with laughter and love.A smile tugged at his lips as his eyes scanned the faces in the frame-his radiant wife, Risa, Gregg, Zin, and Mr. Smith. It was a precious mement
From the beautiful ceremony that echoed the purity of their love to the lively reception that followed, everything was truly enchanting. The laughter, the joy, the well-wishes, everything contributed to creating an ambiance of happiness and love.As the guests filled the beautifully decorated hall, the after-party began in earnest. The buffet tables were laden with an array of delicious food, while the bar was stocked with all sorts of drinks, catering to everyone's preference.Zin, in her elegant emerald green gown, was fluttering around Risa like a protective mother hen. She was diligently making sure that Risa was comfortable, frequently asking if she needed anything. Her worry was transparent, her gaze constantly darting to Risa's small belly. Risa, although touched by her friend's concern, found it amusing and gently assured her that she was fine.Amidst the laughter and conversations, Gregg detached himself from the crowd and moved towards Aiden, who was seated at a table with M
A week had passed since that day, the culmination of which was their big day, the day of their wedding. It was a day that echoed the magnificence of their love for one another. The wedding venue was the most eccentric hall in all of Collow. It was an architectural marvel, a symphony of nature and architecture that combined grandeur and simplicity in a harmonious blend. Tall, impressive stone columns held up the lofty, wooden ceiling, creating an ambiance of grandeur. The hall was filled with the beautiful scent of fresh pine, lavender, and honeysuckle, creating an earthy, calming aura that reflected their shared love for nature. The vast windows draped in flowing sheer curtains allowed the sunlight to filter in, casting a warm, ethereal glow over the space.The wedding was filled with countless guests, all eagerly awaiting the arrival of the bride. The air buzzed with anticipation as soft music filled the room. The melodious notes of the violin and piano created a magical, enchantin
The news of their forthcoming child was still fresh in their minds as they sat down to discuss their imminent wedding. The room was filled with a sense of exhilaration, excitement, and anticipation. The huge dining table was strewn with various wedding catalogs, color palettes, floral arrangements, and tentative guest lists. Risa, brimming with an ethereal glow from her pregnancy, was a picture of excited expectancy. Her green eyes sparkled with a mix of joy and anxiety, her fingers fluttering across the catalog pages as she attempted to decide on the most fitting color code for their nuptials."Aiden, what do you think of this one?" She pointed towards a palette that was an array of earthy colors, inspired by nature.Aiden leaned over to see what she was indicating, his gaze falling on the hues of deep forest green, soft brown, and a touch of gold. He studied it for a moment, his blue eyes reflecting the colors she chose."It's perfect, Risa. It truly reflects who we are, connected
[R-18]'When am I never ready?' Gregg replied in his thoughts, but instead of going along that line of thought, he gave her a tender smile as he brushed her hair away from her face and planted soft kisses on her cheeks and along her jawline."You're my dream girl." He whispered softly into her sensitive ears.Zin's breath caught in her throat as she looked at Gregg with a surprised smile. He had said that to her countless times before in different ways and situations, but it felt different coming from him now. He wasn't saying it because it was something he wanted her to do. It was simply how he saw her.With an easy grace, Zin disrobed, letting her clothes fall to the floor until she was wearing nothing but a sheer white slip of lingerie that accentuated her curves and accentuated her light pink nipples that were already hardening beneath the thin fabric. "Must have been the flour and grease on them," Zin teased with a playful smirk, stripping off the remaining clothing as quickly a
"Is everything alright, Risa?" she asked, her tone hinting at her worry. "You've never declined wine before. Is there a reason you're saying no tonight?"Risa glanced at Aiden, an unspoken question flickering in her gaze. Aiden gave her a reassuring smile, a silent signal for her to share their secret. "I'm not feeling unwell or anything," Risa began, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's just that...I... we... are expecting."The room fell silent, as if the words had sucked the air right out of it. Zin blinked, looking between Risa and Aiden, trying to comprehend the gravity of the news. Meanwhile, Gregg stared at Aiden, his eyes wide with shock."Expecting?" Zin repeated, her mind racing to decode Risa's words. But then it clicked, and she let out a startled gasp. "You mean...you're pregnant?"Risa nodded, a shy smile playing on her lips. "Three weeks along."Aiden reached for Risa's hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. He looked at her with such warmth, his eyes sparkling with
The shadows began to stretch across the rooms of the quaint duplex that Zin and Gregg called home as the golden tendrils of the afternoon sun began to retreat for the day. In the heart of their dwelling, Zin's culinary skills were on full display in their small but well-equipped kitchen. The tantalizing aroma of a home-cooked meal filled the air, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. In contrast, Gregg's domain was the dining area, where he was meticulously attending to every detail. He nervously adjusted the tablecloth, smoothed out non-existent creases, and repositioned the silverware for what felt like the hundredth time."Gregg," Zin's voice carried from the kitchen, filled with a lighthearted teasing note, "You're going to wear holes into the tablecloth if you continue fussing over it like that."A sheepish grin spread across Gregg's face at Zin's playful comment. "I just want to ensure everything is perfect, Zin," he replied, his voice shaky. "Aiden's accustomed to high-end,
A smile, brimming with mischief, gradually began to play across the features of Aiden. The playful glint in his eyes danced as he declared in a voice imbued with teasing suspense, "I'm not going to share that with you." Without any further ado, he reached into his pocket, pulled out a small box with intricate detailing, and handed it over to Gregg, who was visibly caught in the throes of anticipation.Gregg accepted the box with a sense of curiosity bordering on fascination. He gingerly opened the lid, and his pupils dilated in astonishment as they beheld the singular object nestled within the folds of velvet that lined the box. Inside lay a shimmering golden card that reflected the soft ambient light in a playful dance of colors, emphasizing the meticulous engraving of a stylized dragon that marked its surface. The card was encased in a pristine white border, upon which bold, black words stood out in striking contrast: 'What you seek is within.'Aiden, struggling to contain his amus
