    Chapter 15

    Oooh, slice of life chapter, I'll see what I can do Wes.
  2. 15 “They got the mechanic from the garage before I could get to him.” Constantin cursed under his breath and hurried to the bar in his study to pour himself a drink. “What about the one from the hotel?” Constantin asked. “You told me you took care of him.” “I did. We paid him off and made sure he left the country. We’re running out of space to maneuver. We might have to leave too. It’s gory business murdering a Prince of the Realm.” “We haven't even had the state fu

    Chapter 14

    Leon is actually the eldest son of the second son, which is why he stays at Castle Arguro. However, Constantin (who is, eldest son of eldest son) is of the feeling that grandma queen won't give him the throne when his dad, Prince Isaak, eldest son, is removed from his position for crimes etc. Hence, the take-matters-into-own-hands-and-make-it-happen idea. I dare you to read that aloud, it boggled my mind. Next time I'll write a more sayable (i'vemadeaword) plot...lolz. Good fun. A lot of thoughts on royalty...hahaha. I'm in fantasy world, so all matters of abolish are like a dream. Just for the awesome comments and thoughts, I'm off to upload the next chapter in a few. Thank you so much for reading!
  4. 14 Queen Amethea sat at the head of the table in the family living room, watching her family members walk in dressed for a wake. Each of them wore a different level of grief on their faces at the news of Leon’s death. She remembered assembling these same people when Kleopas and Anastasia died. That time, she had been unable to talk much and had left Olivier to voice all her opinions. This charade pained her, but if it would end the attempts on Leon’s life, she would sanction anythin
  5. 13 Bullets hit the side of the Jeep, metal clawing its way into metal. It was so loud, Leon wanted to jump out of the jeep and run. Logan would not let him. A strong arm pushed him lower to the floor, holding him down in a crouch. Logan’s tone remained calm as he gave orders to Shirley and the rest of the team. The Jeep started moving again. Leon assumed they were heading to the castle. It was only a minute away at top speed. The gunshots continued. Logan’s arm tightened ar
  6. 12 Leon crossed the street and kept walking until he found a trail leading him to the beach. There was magic in the water when the sun descended into its depths. Leon spent a few minutes immortalizing the color on the water and the sky with his camera. When he had enough pictures, he sat on the sand, removed his boots and watched the sunset. Logan joined him after thirty minutes, choosing to keep a wide gap between them. “The sun is almost gone,” Logan said. “We should be gett
  7. 11 Leon woke up at five a.m. in the morning the next day, his head feeling heavy. A soft groan slipped from his lips and he rolled to his left side. Painkillers and brandy were the devil, he should never have tangled with either, but they numbed the pain now flaring in his chest. He could not bear the thought of David in hospital. Reaching for his phone on the bedside table, he rubbed sleep from his eyes and found Dr. Joley’s number. He called her and sat up when she answered on th
  8. 10 Closing the bathroom door behind him, Logan leaned on it, and took in several deep breaths to calm his heart. He could not bring himself to regret kissing Leon. It felt right, like they belonged. Leon had not pushed him away because he didn’t like it, but because he did. Logan smiled at that thought. Shaking his head, he got his cellphone and dialed Commander Stevens, moving away from the bathroom door. “Lt. Commander.” “Sir, we are at the hotel for a few more hours
  9. 9 Leon might have refused to take on his role as a Prince of the Kingdom in the Capital Palace, but the government officials had not forgotten him. Even now, as he sat opposite two Ministry of Tourism officials, Logan could see that they regarded him as His Highness, Prince Leon. They wanted Leon’s support in promoting tourism projects through the new hotel and any trips Leon would take out of the kingdom. Leon negotiated for an equal deal for the hotel and the tourism ministry. A s

    Chapter 6

    I apologize for this, bad editing on my part, posting too fast. I think I need to watch out for this. Riku was originally Ren in my first Draft, hahaha, the name slipped on me in Chapter 6, what a fail! I've edited it. Not as bad as the GOT coffee cup though...hehehehe. Petr is my favorite person in this story. He'll explain the club one of these chapters, hehehe.

    Chapter 8

    Like taking back what's his... I'm all for shattering glass, but looking through it is also such fun angst, hehehe. Thank you @Netvoyager
  12. 8 Dressed in his service khakis, Logan followed Commander Stevens into a private meeting room at the Aeras Naval Base. A comfortable room set up for private conversation with four leather armchairs and a single door, no windows and the vents secured. Logan waited for his Commander to sit before he followed suit, taking the chair next to his boss. “Sir?” Logan started to ask. “I’m sorry to cut your leave short, Logan,” Stevens said, his voice laced with tension. “Orders came
  13. Part Two 7 Four Years Later They said time healed all troubles. Logan gave an internal scoff. In his case, time had aggravated his troubles. He doubted those who made the time observation had ever faced his brand of troubles. Dragging on a white t-shirt, Logan ran a negligent towel over his damp hair and dumped it into his duffel bag. He zipped up his bag and hauled it, leaving the changing rooms. He walked down a long corridor, turned right at the end and straig
  14. 5 Logan knew he fell in love with Leon on their whirlwind road trip in Norway through to Sweden. After their hiking trip to Trolltunga, they rented two motorhomes and decided to explore the country on a road trip, getting supplies in every town they ran across. They started in Odda heading to Tromso, driving across the luscious natural beauty that was Norway, and camping out nights. Logan spent hours with Leon. Without choice, really, there was no distance when they lived in a motorhome
  15. 4 Leon glanced at Logan who sat next to him on their flight. He was asleep, covered with the blanket the flight attendant gave him. His head tilted back, his lips parted in sleep. Logan looked tired. Leon’s phone beeped and he slid his finger over the dark screen bringing it to life. ‘What did you have for dinner?’ ‘Why aren’t you answering?’ Leon stared at his mother’s questions on the family chat with a small smile. ‘Sorry, Mom, I got distracted. Logan grilled steaks for di

    Chapter 2

    I high-key love your reactions Wes! No low-key about it. This author says they love you back. It's a slow burn with a great epic moment soon to come, and then I'll drop that steady ax, just warning y'all early, hahaha. Thank you so much for reading!

    Chapter 1

    Yes! Let's! This just happened, lolz! I guess coming off of ML, I'm still low-key channeling Ilaria. It sure did. Here I am writing 'slice of life', hope everyone likes it, lolz. Me too....lolz. I'll admit it. Coming off of the Morgan Lore, is a hard act to follow...lolz. No magic, or awesome Sage with her magic to help me out in this one. (Curiously nervous)
  19. 3 Leon stared at a picture of Logan leaning on a tree at Eibsee Lake. The lighting was phenomenal, casting Logan’s face in a perfect profile. Dark hair cut in a neat military style, those gorgeous blue eyes staring in the distance. Logan was tall at six-foot-two, Leon often found himself looking up when they stood side by side. Logan wore a simple t-shirt and jeans in the picture, his feet in military-grade black boots. Leon sat back in his chair breathing out slowly and then chuckled.
  20. 2 Leon loved horses. They were handsome, loyal and excellent judges of characters. Horses were the best companion to have. He always knew his limits with a horse, but with humans, not so much. At twenty-two, he had spent most of his life in a whirlwind of study and business assessments: his father set for him tough, rigorous and trying programs and expected him to excel. When his father thought him ready, he sent Leon to Harvard at the age of seventeen, away from the safety of home f

    Chapter 1

    Thanks Andre!
  22. Part One 1 Leon handed his precious Oxford Certificates to his mother and watched her tear up at the sight of them. He had graduated two days ago. He officially had a Master’s in Business, and he was proud of it considering the amount of work he put in to get it. His coming vacation would be a relief from the insane roller-coaster of exam halls and lectures. He was looking forward to a few months of fun before he moved on to the next stage of his life. It was mid-July. His parents
  23. Leon and Logan fall in love on a six-month trip across Europe. When tragedy strikes, they are separated by life's decisions and must make their way back to each other.
  24. Woo hoo!! Thank you so much Cia for the feature!

    Climaxes

    Blade was a bit of a let down...hehehe. I've been working on a story that when I thought I was getting to the big end, I realized I was only just starting. It was a bummer to stop and be like, how do I rewrite this again so it's not so flat, I guess the climax didn't ring true at all. Now I'm stuck in the limbo of research and planning. This was a really useful article. I think I've some clear head now. My favorite movies, in terms of great planning with awesome climax, there is the 'House of Flying Daggers'. I really didn't see the twist coming at its height, also, Lucky Number Slevin, it has some great planning, the climax was amazing. Thank you for taking the time to write these articles!
