Game Of Bad

Arentia—an ancient continent that flourished in glory for countless ages, where power and prosperity were the pillars of its rule. It was upheld by noble families that played a crucial role in its stability. Among them, House Vermouth stood out, bearing the emblem of a colossal dead oak tree—a symbol of resilience and determination. During the Great Coup in the capital, the Vermouths did not hesitate to defend their legacy with all their might. As for Ethan, the youngest scion of House Vermouth, he enrolled in the prestigious Azurea Academy, where both nobles and commoners studied the arts of magic and swordsmanship. However, he soon faced a grave challenge—he was unlike the other students.

Yet, Ethan, heir to wood and fire, would not accept defeat. His spirit was unbreakable, and his will was forged from steel. He would not surrender until he proved his resilience to the entire world.

She was literally half naked. "Hey..." her greeting came out in a slur, and that was all he needed to know she was drunk. Very drunk, at that. "Why?" he asked simply, knowing she would interpret his question as she usually did. "I...I visited them today. The flowers on their stones were already wilted and...and...it broke me. I wanted to be happy and at the same time, I wanted to cry," Avery replied, inhaling short wisps of air before she continued, "Then I found the cellar." "Did it work?" She shook her head slowly in reply, lifting her head up in time to see a mischievous smirk curl on his lips. "Don't be sad, Baby girl. I happen to know a way to make you cry and keep you excited at the same time," he said. "Really?" "Wanna try it, Mama?" Avery nodded, slowly but firmly as he closed the distance between them. As he promised, she did cry...in pleasure. Note: This book is participating in the Cupid's Quill Contest. Your support is highly appreciated!
