The Deceitful One

With the advent of steam power, mankind has advanced and ushered in the industrial revolution. This is the age of steam locomotives, automatons, guns, and cannons, as well as curses, magic, artifacts, and the occult. Hidden in the shadows are a group of extraordinary people who wield enormous power and strange abilities that normal people cannot even begin to comprehend. They are known as Transcendents! Bryan, a wily thief with a penchant for mischief, lost his parents at a very young age and was forced to live on the streets. That is until his whole life turned around when he was shown the Path to becoming a Transcendent. The Theft Path specializes in deceit and illusions. It can steal everything under the heavens. Even the powers, thoughts, and lives of others. Follow Bryan on his journey through this dangerous and treacherous world as he steals from gods and robs the mortals. This is the story of The Deceitful One. *** My novel has a steampunk world setting, so expect a lot of steam-powered technology as well as retro-looking futuristic inventions. Furthermore, there will be churches, secret organizations, and cults. So if you're a fan of LotM—which I have taken inspiration from btw—you will definitely like my novel. Also, this is my first attempt at writing a novel so you might find some mistakes here and there. Just know that I'm constantly trying to improve. Cheers! *** https://discord.gg/ZwFUa2zM

Acquired Taste

After a thirty-minute warm bath, Bryan and Lily came out of the bathroom which was connected to Lily's bedroom on the second floor of the villa.

Bryan went toward the single-seater, blue-colored cushioned couch by the floor-to-ceiling window and sat there, looking outside and admiring the nighttime view of the vineyard.

Lily who had wrapped a white towel around her torso went to the bedside table and took out a small silver-colored container the size of her palm from the drawer. She then walked to where Bryan was sitting.

As she approached Bryan, she took off her towel, revealing her slim abdomen, wide hips, round butts, and thick thighs. Meanwhile, her blonde hair still slightly wet from the earlier bath further accentuated her alluring beauty.

She then went around the couch and sat on Bryan's lap. Bryan simply smiled at Lily's attempt to arouse him and then his gaze landed on the silver case in her hands as he asked curiously, "What's that?"
