My Pawn 2 (Rias X Reader Volume 2)

Ch 11 - Redeem

As the night falls and nearly strikes midnight my body just froze. I'm punching into work at 7 AM on Sunday and after a week I'm unemployed due to an ultimatum. I stopped my original work myself and Lady Relentlezz have given a nice concept for and realized something. I've been having these flashbacks. The decisions I've made writing, the directions in these books and my personal life I've made. Some on weeks of thinking and others based on coin flips. Wow. Inside my mind is a dangerous place. Holy hell. A few pieces of advice for all the people reading this -

- Every career choice can be bashful
- College professors had said I'm a storyteller and that's it. Writing isn't taken seriously. Well... 1,400+ I'm pretty sure I can say not every opinion matters
- Men! When you're lady says she wants nothing for V Day that is pure bullshit! Be smart and grab her something. Could be small. Whatever. Do it up.
- Hard work cannot beat bad or no nutrition. You might pass out like I did during my 62 hour work weeks. Eat good and rest.
- Give back, love others, work hard, don't stop dreaming, and don't lose confidence

Sorry for ranting.

Anyways we are back with Issei having the mother of all nightmares and he is waking up in panic mode. What's the poor bastard's next move?

Enjoy.

Scared and shaken up Issei takes Ravel's advice and heads off to the shower. Throughout the whole manor the only lights that were on were the nightlights that light up the staircase as the kids were to carry flashlights if they exited their rooms past dusk.

Issei walked down the hall and into the shower. Turning on the hot water as steam filled the room. It was a rough one for him. Nightmares were a rare thing for Issei. It just wasn't in the norm for him.

Maybe my dreams are trying to tell me something. That was awful. I love Asia. Yui too. It just hurts. He turned around and grabbed a washcloth. I look at it now and I've been a real jerk. Shower and meal sounds great and all but I just want to clean up and see Asia. I'm just craving it. She's always been at my side. Through and through no matter if it was with other women or having kids and nothing in life off the top of my head. She makes all of this possible. And of course I bullshit and screw up. Thinking with the wrong head. I have five kids, three wives, and another to be married. I am playing favorites. What kind of man am I? Kiba is a good husband. Yet gives in too much. Gasper has no backbone. Wait a minute. (FN) has the best relationship in the House. I got to ask him."

The man finished up and turned off the water. Grabbing a towel and having a quick seat before stepping out. He takes a look at his phone. It's just passing 3 AM.

"Guess it's time for me to meet my maker." He sighed. In a bathrobe he exited the shower and into his room. Interesting enough it wasn't used often. Only for when he wasn't feeling well or all wives agreed he was being bad. Instead of the couch he would sleep alone. Going to the dresser he put on some shorts and a plain white tee and sat on his bed. Still thinking. Will she kick me out? My brain says yes and my heart says no. The thought raced through his head. He had to go through and at least try it otherwise it would just eat him. Here goes nothing.
