The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 Prologue
The world is screwed up place. Everyone in it just wants peace when it isn't promised to nobody. We work for ourselves to try to improve our ways of life only for someone who has more to take it. Everything is about monetary gain and if you don't got the green you better have a way to survive. Help wont come when you need it. There is no home and having shame is a simple thing of the past. We all tell people to have hope. We tell them that if they work hard enough that change will eventually come and with that change they will find their happy ending. I've watched humans kill for that happy ending. I've committed murder when a tyrant thought to torture the only good thing in this world I have ever found in this fucked up place. Even when I tried to save it, I still lost it.Yeah, you heard right. I am no saint. This world is far from cupcake and t ,rainbows and their isn't not one soul that could tell me different. I have had to fight to survive since the day I lii I broke out of an
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 Too Much Information-Maximus
Just my luck. It's starting to seem like every time I'm sent to summon someone I end up listening in on their most private moments. I stand in that place just outside of reality and witness the scene before me. I press my hands against the thick film for once wishing I could break it to cause a disruption. I didn't need to see this. I know I should just come back but as I hear their conversation my feet are rooted in place. I couldn't move if I tried. "Eggs" I hear Magma say when I tune back in. I look at the tears shining in her eyes and know that no matter how much I hope for it not to be, those are tears of joy. She is not ours. I have told you this. I grit my teeth against the voice in my mind. Every time it speaks it's as if it is trying to crawl it's way out. The magnitude of its body causes an instant chill of my blood and makes my back go ramrod straight. Hating the feeling, I close my eyes and focus on reforming the barrier. We must stay separated. As I reinforce the barri
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 What a Hike-Emily
I trudge along with the group through another stupid assignment. If what I write form this current excursion doesn't lead me to front page news then I am going to have to find another station to work at. I have spent too many years doing the grunt assignments. Another curse leaves my mouth as I trip over the root of a tree sticking out from the forest floor. It feels as if we have been walking for hours. As I look around everything looks the same. The only things that lets me know that we have main any progress through the density of the trees is the winding trail behind me slowly disappearing. "How much longer until we make camp?" I ask as my breathing grows heavy from the journey once more. "It should be just around the next bend of trees dear" Bernard says. As he speaks he turns his head to let his eye drift over my form. I quickly look away from him not wanting his attention. For four years I have been working at the station. Countless times I have denied his ways of sho
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 Ownership-Maximus
After that meeting this morning I should have known that this day just wouldn't be easy. My job usually never is. At times like this it almost makes me happy that I don't have Xander's job. If I had to deal with all the species on a daily basis and their so called disputes, I would have left a long time ago. For once I thought I might have been able to walk the perimeter of all five clans and then return to my cabin to be alone. Just as I was leaving the last sector I was stopped by a whistle. I whip my head towards the water to glare at the thing that decided to call me like I'm some common household pet. For a second I consider flashing behind the asshole and strangling him. However, last time we got into an altercation I didn't like what the fishy fucker was able to reveal about me. He rises out of the water with a knowing smirk on his face. I watch as his fins slowly dry to reveal a pair of legs matching the rest of his shiny skin. I fold my arms against my chest and take up m
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 What the?-Emily
It is comfortable here. I stretch my toes in my shoes and find that I am happy with the new sleeping bag I purchased for this trip. Wait why would I fall asleep in my shoes? As I have the thought I am suddenly jolted on the platform in which I lay, and I feel myself bounce. When my eyes shoot open I find that an exceptionally large figure is looming over me. in my frightened state I scream as loud as I can and begin to hit the figure so that I can rise from what I have now seen is a couch. As I swing and fight for my life I notice that I am not in my tent but instead am in some sort of cabin. I quickly push the figure when I spot the door and try to make a run for it. Suddenly, what I now see is a giant man appears right in front of the door. I look back at the couch and then look at the door in shock. How the hell did he get here so fast. "Just let me go. I will fight you if I have to" I say with a false bravado that I don't feel. I clench my hands into fist as they rest again
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 Heated Games-Maximus
For once my endless nights of darkness don't come. Sleep seems to have alluded me. The scent, her alluring scent of warm honey is choking me. Trying to rid my nostrils of her smell I take the chance of breathing through my mouth. I groan allowed at the taste of her on my tongue. If I weren't peering up at the ceiling of my own cabin I would have sworn that she and all her curves were right here in front of me. Just go to her. Your tossing and turning is making me batshit. I turn over once more trying to ignore the voice in my head. After ignoring it for years the constant prescience of it grates on my nerves. For a moment I contemplate putting up a shield once more in my mind. Suddenly my body flares with heat and my skin pricks as if a thousand needles have hit it at once. I gasp trying to get a grasp on to some kind of control. The pain is like nothing I have ever felt. It borders on a line that I'm not quite sure I want to cross. A long groan leaves my mouth as the
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 Dragon Breakfast-Emily
Shit. A dragon. You have got to be kidding me. I knew believing what he said was too good to be true. I should have just taken my chances and made the journey back to camp last night. I slowly take a step away as my body prepares to run to get away from the monster in front of me. "Why are you afraid"? he questions me. I snort because the reason has to be obvious. I take another step backward toward the front door. When he steps forward with his hand held out my heart starts to race in pure panic. "Just stay right there. I don't want any trouble from you. Just let me go and I will pretend like we never met" I say trying to remain calm in the face of a monster. "I thought we had a deal. What about me being a dragon frightens you? I have done nothing wrong." He says as he remains in the kitchen. "Maybe you haven't. Who know? But I know that your kind eats my kind. I would like my head to remain very much in tacked thank you very much" I grit out as I continue backing toward the
The Redemption of Maximus-Book 3 Mistaken Fealty-Maximus
I pause as I exit my cabin. I make to take a step but instead of doing so I find that it's hard getting my feet to move. I look at the door, wanting to go back but know that I am supposed to be leaving. I close my eyes and shake my head. This already too complicated for me. Us. We are in this together. With I chuckle I enter the ether and head to Xander's office. First things first, I need him to approve my leave. If I can't spend time with her then doing the other things on my list don't matter. "You better be ready to put on a show. Make it believable. But don't go overboard" I warn him as Xander comes into view. To convince him I will have to come forward. We must convince hits beast too. Shit. I forgot about this part. I watch as Xander's back stiffens in his chair, and I know that I am out of time. "You better give me back control when it is time. I won't be pushed aside easily" I commend him. However, before I even finish my statement he jumps to the foref
