"I now pronounce you husband and wife," he announces. "You may kiss the bride." The priest finishes. My husband leans in close to me and I feel his lips brush against mine before they finally rest on the side of my mouth. It lasts one second. And then, he parts away. ••• Most of the romance novels end at an alter - but Lillian's story starts at one. Being married to the millionaire James Clark was not something Lillian Vince signed up for when she decided to visit her parents one afternoon, right after her college classes ended. Yet, life had been waiting to spring this surprise on her. She could have said no, but her parents' tears were all she considered before agreeing, despite her brain screaming a big no. James is anything but an ideal husband. He left the responsibility of finding a way to end the engagement before it even happened on her. But, despite every effort, she walks down the aisle.

Adrian Donati, my husband, the love of my life. "Please don't stop on my account." He says pinning me with his piercing greys. I look around. Escape tattooed in my brain. But I find none. "What did you think, that you could run from me and take my children with you?" He says getting up as he buttons his suit jacket. "They are not yours. You lost any right over them when you left me at the altar. Now they're just mine." I say, all sense leaving me. "Oh I got all rights over them, since the day my sperm made them up. And kitten, you're still my wife remember. This is not over." He says walking close to me. Way too close. Pulling me close by my waist, he rests his head on the crook of my neck, his lips brushing my skin ever so lightly as he speaks. "Quit running from me and come home. You're straining yourself and my children." He says as if it is the most normal thing to do. Savannah Greene. Hot-headed girl, whose seen her adoptive parents die right before her.

A NaNoWriMo LitRPG starring a videogame QA tester named Sam Nagai. Sam thought testing videogames would be a dream job until he got saddled with a ton of barely playable mobile games. The lack of fun in these games and small pay makes Sam typically reluctant whenever he gets a call for a new gig, but customers for his art commissions have been scarce and Sam needs all the money he can get. He finally gets a call for a new gig with potential bonus pay, but not much else is known about the game itself. From what he does know, it sounds sort of interesting. Virtual Reality? Dark gothic fantasy? Uber hard difficulty? Sam's all in for that. After all it's not real so there's no real danger... Expect a dark and scary atmosphere, nightmarish creatures, madness and despair, beautiful and desolate locales, leveling up, and epic battles. This one is for you fans of the souls-like genre and other dark fantasy games like Legacy of Kain and Onimusha! Please comment, critique and vote at your leisure! I love to hear your opinions! **Hell's Glitch in its original form. The last updates before my final draft.
