After So Long
Aubrey had been an orphan since he was seven and was never adopted for the next eleven years of his life.
After finally freeing himself from his own living hell, an orphanage involved with the underworld, Aubrey started his new life going to a prestigious university.
Almost three years later government workers came to him and claimed that his aunt and uncle had died only leaving behind their four month old daughter.
Aubrey knew he had an uncle since he was young, but he had never met him for various reasons.
Aubrey then adopted the tiny little thing as his own daughter, refusing to be like his uncle and leaving a small child to fend for themselves.
Nine years later Aubrey’s twenty-ninth birthday was fast approaching and a virus started spreading and almost instantly Aubrey and his daughter, Ember, were thrown into the zombie apocalypse.
Aubrey soon awakened four blessings and was sought after by many and Aubrey soon lost Ember to those schemes.
Aubrey spent the next seven years as a puppet only meant for killing to protect Ember, only to lose her from illness.
Aubrey’s last memory was of lying in the middle of the bloody battlefield and staring up at the raining sky.
When his eyes finally closed he soon found himself as a newborn baby in another world.
Once again he was taken for his blessings, but this time as a newborn child and was trained to be an assassin in a do or die environment.
With killing already engraved into his soul he soon was chosen as the next clan leader and later became the youngest in history.
Once again he found his last memory amidst blood and rain, and he once again opened his eyes as a newborn baby.
He was born a slave in his third life and found nothing new in his way of life of killing and obedience, until he was taken in by the Duke on a whim.
He started training with a sword, with etiquette, with words, with money, and soon proved his worth and was given a name.
No longer a slave he became a knight and swore his loyalty to the young master, the next Duke, but once again he lived in a world of killing and obedience even though in a different form.
Soon Aubrey forgot how many lives he had lived and many started to blend together, the only memory staying alive of his one and only daughter.
No matter how many times he found himself taking his last breath amongst the blood of others and his own, along with the pouring rain.
After who knows how long Aubrey awoke once more, but no longer in the body of a newborn baby, but as his twenty year old original self.
Ember would be coming to live with him soon and he would never lose her like before.
The beast had finally been released from his cage and he would no longer serve obediently, he would take his fate into his own hands.
Will the beast consume him or will someone able to calm the beast finally come along after so long?
