It'S Time You Should Wake Up Suguru

The Greek gods Slumber In Wake Of Trouble

At fourteen, Alec is biding his time in the cold, confining walls of an orphanage, counting down the days until his fifteenth birthday, his self-imposed deadline to escape. The orphanage is no home—it’s a place of harsh rules and harsh people, a prison he longs to leave behind. But as his plan to escape takes shape, Alec finds himself haunted by visions of three mysterious men, each more strange and powerful. In one vision, Alec sees a fierce, commanding figure—an older man with a wild white beard and eyes slit with flashes of lightning. This man perches on clouds, his gaze like thunder, his presence a storm waiting to strike. In another vision, Alec is drawn to a man with the calm of the ocean in his eyes, the kind of calm that can turn deadly with a moment’s notice. His serene smile hides the force of a tempest, and he appears on tranquil beaches or luxurious yachts, exuding both peace and power. The third man is a contradiction, always laughing and swaying as though drunk, his gaze dancing with fire and eyes pitch black. Yet beneath his boisterous demeanor, a darkness clings to him, thick and suffocating, like a shadow he cannot shake. Each of these men has one request for Alec: they want him to be their vessel. They come to him one by one, pleading, promising, but Alec refuses, unsettled by their otherworldly presence and the ominous weight of their demands. Who are they, these figures who appear from the sky, the sea, and the shadowy depths? And why do they want him—a lone boy desperate for freedom—as their vessel? As his birthday approaches, Alec faces a choice that could reshape his entire future. But freedom has its costs, and so does the mystery that pulls at him from the depths of his own visions.

Fourth Time's A Charm

Adrian Huh, I snapped out of it and look around me to see Stephano, Nathan, Bruce, and the newest addition that I don't fully trust Martin all seated waiting for me, and by my side is my trusted aide and best friend Dave “Ok let's begin, we are gathered here today because we've agreed to work hard to solve the mystery surrounding my father's death and unfortunately we are as close to finding something as Harry is to having a beard”. We all laughed because my younger brother is such a baby, well a mean baby but someone has been curbing him surprisingly, Harry is just approaching 23 but he's still young and childish, so he can't be here, he also can't know the truth. I was about to tell them to get serious when she burst in through the door knocking from it's hinges, wow, she looks angry but she made me angrier for wrecking this door, this is my grandma's favorite room in all of Lidapton, she's not going to be happy. “Adrian, I can take so many things but this, those tiny small brats have been disrespecting me, brats that even Chloe can handle without battling an eye, not only that but the maids as well but I simply ignored all of that because I came to Lidapton to get experience but.... I didn't let her finish before yelled in anger “Aisha leave this room this instant! there's an important meeting going on and your obstructing it, I don't have time for your temper tantrums, you'll do what is asked of you, and you'll leave when I tell you too”. I obviously said this because we were in an important meeting and she has been complaining about everything and I just couldn't take it anymore. Everywhere was quiet, the tension hung thick in the air, everyone watched with bated breath to find out what she'll do, everyone in the room knows her and her strong tendencies. While, the tension was getting thicker, a small laughter broke the silence, it was small at first but then it became a full blown laughter, I couldn't believe it, why was she laughing, she immediately came to stand in front of me, she poked my chest in a very painful way and looked even more furious than before. “Listen and listen good Mr Lidapton, I'm many things but I don't take orders and no one, absolutely no one has the right to command me”. She stopped after saying that and I thought she was done but. “Yoy maybe taller than me but that doesn't make me short, I may have no choice but to look up to you but do remember, (she forcefully pulled me down while tightly holding my collar)“I can make you look down to me, (it took me a while to understand that she had pulled me down so of course I look down[Lower than her or her level]to her, it was obvious, she was threatening me, she left my collar and headed for the door but Dave stepped in just in time to whisper something to her, she stopped,turned to stare wide eyed, she looked adorable, then she made a weird face that made me want to laugh so hard and mouthed “I'm sorry” and just left. I signalled Dave and he told me he what he told her, “I told her you were having a small gathering for your friends”. Bruce was the first to speak “It looks like yours will be the hardest to handle” “Yes,(sigh) it will be”.
