"So, what do you think?" I heard Jingam's voice as I glanced over my shoulder, finding him standing behind me. He regarded me a soft smile that I returned innocently. "What did I think of what, lord Jingam?" "The garden, of course." He said, lifting his eyes as he surveyed the scenery with me. I brought my gaze back to the view before me. "It's wonderful. Lotus is my favorite flower and it's my family's crest." "I know." Said Jingam softly, he lowered himself, taking the space beside me. "That's why I had them planted. This used to be a koi pond, but I thought it'd be a nice surprise for whenever you come to visit again. I just didn't think it'll take you five long years to come back." "Lord Jingam." I feign my overwhelmed enthusiasm. "Don't tell me you had the pond converted into lotus garden especially for me?" "Why of course. There's nothing more I want than to see my little bird happy." My little bird? The delight wiped away from my eyes and my smile faded. I couldn't hide the surprise that came over me when he used the word my. The smile on Jingam's cheeks wiped away when he noticed my surprise. "Didn't you know?" I shook my head, "didn't know what?" "Has your brother not told you?" That very phrase turned my ears numb. Yuanji is filled with tricks and surprises. Of course, my brother would not tell me anything. "Eldest brother likes keeping me in the dark. I'm afraid, I don't know what's going on." "I promised your brother I'll marry you as soon as you're at marrying age. Your brother can be quite persistent. He brought you here to be my wife."

Highest rank #1 in Historical He glared at me with irritation. "Come inside!" ...And I did. He pointed to the stack of books on the floor. "Pick them up and arrange them the way they're supposed to." With trembling hands, I did what he asked quickly. Fret in the way I moved, picking up the books into my arms and lap one by one only for them to fall back on the floor over and over. I was a mess, upset, and it was obvious. This wasn't the kind of first meeting I dreamed of. The second prince was mean, and he was irritable. He had no clue who I am which made me resent it even more. He scowled as he watched me made mistakes after mistakes and after a while, he grew frustrated and bent over, picking the books himself. "Forgive me, I didn't mean to snarl at you the way I did. I'm not used to being distracted. No one ever walks in my office unless they have my permission. I don't even know how the guardsmen let you in." I wanted to say because unlike you, they recognized who I am. But I kept my mouth shut in fear of aggravating his anger. His voice took a lot gentler tone, I imagined he must've realized how upset I was and felt bad about it. I said nothing. When we're done, I rose up to my feet, couldn't wait to get out of this room. This man was so impolite to me that I couldn't wait to get away from him. "I apologize, your highness. I didn't mean to distract you in your private office." I stepped back getting ready to leave when a sliver of sunlight struck highlighting my face. "Wait!" He murmured and I turned back to look at him. "You're beautiful." He said breathlessly. I would have blushed, but he was so mean and rude to me that his compliment lost its impact long ago. "I need to go," I told him. "Wait." A wave of panic rose in the tide of his voice. The prince was afraid to lose me. "What's your name, girl?" He asked quickly. "Jasmine, my name is Jasmine, your highness." "My Jasmine?" He murmured hopeful.

Part 1 of the Kings Series. Aiden brings me closer and wraps his hands around me, engulfing me in completely. He kisses my bandage on the forehead and I await a 'I'm sorry' but it never comes. He caresses my hair and rubs my back to comfort me. My eyes well up in tears but I control them from falling. I can't be weak. I don't want him to give that power. He takes my face in his hands and his eyes meet my eyes. A lone tear drops down but I stare into his eyes, not breaking the mask I've built around him. "I can be good to you. Only if you let me. If you keep disrespecting me and my decisions, what happened yesterday would be nothing in comparison to what I'm capable of. I let go hurting you yesterday. I wanted to make you bleed profusely and chain you to my bed for weeks until you came to your senses. Your friend's ear is still intact because you of what you told my parents afterwards. Don't test me, love. And don't test my patience. You decide your own fate and your fate is in my hands. Make a wise decision. I won't let go again." "Do you understand?" That lone tear got accompanied by many lone tears and now I was crying silently. He looked at me, just waiting for an answer. So I gave it. "Yes." "Yes, what?" "Yes, Aiden." He smiles. "Good girl."

[ ] "What do you want to be little boy?" Asuma asked the younger. "I want to be strong. Really strong. I want to be the strongest person alive!" The little boy claimed with glee. His eyes glistered under the moonlight. But Asuma smiled. "That means you would be the last person standing in battle?" The little boy nodded eagerly. His tiny hand shot up in the air as he celebrated his fictional victory. "I would punch and kick anyone who comes my way! Yeah!" He punched his imaginary opponent in order to show his skills to Asuma. Two left punches and a swift kick in the air before laughing innocently. "Do you know what being the last person standing means young one?" Asuma asked him once more while placing his hand on the boys head ruffling his hair. The young boy raised his head and smiled at him showing him an pearly white smile. "Of course! It means that I am the winner!" Asuma bitterly smiled back at him as he watched him chase after a butterfly. A children's innocence was all that gave him hope. "And that everyone around you is dead..."

"You belong to me!" he said in his deep, husky voice, sending shivers down my spine. "And you are mine to love, princess!" His tone was full of possessiveness. "Let me go-" I started to protest, but he silenced me by pressing his index finger to my lips. "Shh, be quiet!" he whispered softly against my lips. I looked into his eyes, which were filled with desire and longing. "It's just you and me tonight, and I want to make it special for us," his strong voice sent chills down my spine. My heart raced as I felt his fingers at the edge of my dress, ready to tear it away. *"I'm about to do the most sinful things with you now, Jaan!"* His voice echoed in my ears. "I've waited long enough!" His voice grew deeper with desire. "No, please-"before I finish my sentence, he interrupted me as air rushed around my body. He ripped my dress in two pieces.

Highest ranking :- # 2 Fantasy (9/05/16) "Now please tell me the truth. Tell me who I am." I asked. He put those bags on one corner of the room and sat near to me. I could see tension building up on his face. He Begin, "You are a part of a prophecy. According to it, whenever a demon would rise from the underworld, a princess, a chosen one would take birth. That chosen one is the only person who could kill that demon." He paused and took a breath. "And you, Sheena...." He continued, "are the chosen one." * how would you feel when from nowhere an extremely good looking guy approaches you and says that you are chosen as a princess of a magical kingdom?? well for me it was not less than a heart attack every one is born with a purpose, I was too.... I am Sheena Gupta. I am a nerd, boring and God knows what else. it was my b'day( that I thought would be the most boring day of my life ) which became the turning point of my life......

//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me." I said between gritted teeth. He just gave me a sorrowful glance before driving the dagger into my flesh.// This is no story of love and happiness. This is a story of death and destruction.

I know, I know... Magi isn't well known but I love Sinbad and Jafar. The two really have the duo of; the outgoing, extrovert, and the polar opposite "I'll kill you if you touch them," introvert. Ok, ok. Jafar isn't really like that- ok, yes he is. Anyways, just an AU of where Sinbad met Jafar later on in life and I added a lot of mystical stuff like demons, angels, elves, goblins, dragons, you name it. Sinbad: age 20 Jafar: age 16 (Also no. I do not write sex. Don't be expecting that) Ok byeeee!

Sinbad remembered it clearly, when he was still 14 years old, Ja'far was still 10. Their first meeting at the tower found at Imuchakk. When black rukh came out from Mahad, Vittel and Ja'far's body forming a Black Djinn. He remembers it clearly as day and he thought that's it's gone from his adviser's body, he's wrong. Now he will have to pay... no... more likely his adviser will have to the pay price for having that stupid and naïve thought... what happen if something different happen when Judal destroyed barrier surrounding and protecting Sindria? What if Al-Thamen wasn't after Alibaba? Even when they succeeded on conquering Zagan's dungeon, they can never bring someone's back to life, not without its body and rukh missing. AU: when Judal entered Sindria, Dunya Musta'sim and Isaac didn't went after Alibaba and the others, and the war at the 'Magi: The kingdoms of magic' never happen...
