---Merida’s POV---

“Wait what?” I look to Theresa and then forward, but I can’t see Ericson as he is now focused on driving and the other guy was observing our surroundings. But from no one’s surprise reaction then they know. *Wait Ericson escorted him to the meeting earlier!* I feel Nadia poking my head and just know she is smirking as she watches me put the pieces together.

“That guy up there is your guard and not some friend or employee!” I asked just to have all the pieces. Theres still a lot to ask but let’s start small.

“Well, his title is King’s Left Hand of the Armed Guard. His name is Warrick. Though you are right he is my employee, but I do value his friendship that he gladly offers me every day.” Davien/the king says. in response to his words Warrick waves his hand but never pulls his eyes from watching for possible obstacles.

Looking at Ericson, I don’t say anything but point to him. Davien, understanding what I’m asking, answers. “Ericson is also my employee, but I have k

    Lunch was fun. Well as fun as having an energetic 4 year and a group of vampires all sharing a table. Plus, the king/ my new dad and Ericson. It was confirmed they were not vampires, as I watched them not eat and talk about what tasted better. Well except for Theresa who did eat, just not as much as everyone else.Then again, I was wondering what her true relationship was to Mama Ang. For if I remember correctly, I think they are cousins or something, that grew up together, only they lost contact in high school for some reason. Only to be reunited when I was 7 or so, she even moved in for a period of time before she got her house that’s just a few houses down from Mama Ang’s.That’s when I was hit with a memory. I was 8 and I was staying a week or two at Lucy’s as my family was out of town. It was Saturday and we had to go to some BBQ event her close-nit neighborhood was holding. I saw Theresa in the kitchen helping cook the food but as we left, she was standing at the door waving goo

    Sitting there in a nice restaurant and having a good time, I was floored by how fast it changed. I just watched as half my family left and without explaining why. Callie was not happy, but she understood she didn’t have a say, so she just waved goodbye to me. Smiling as best as I could I waved back to her.I was angry that they tried to hide those letters from me, and that Callie even touched one. But I was worried that there was more than just that and they didn’t want me to know. As I was seething, I noticed that guy from the car, Warrick, (I think) whispering in Davien’s ear. Looking at him, I see his happy expression switch to an angry one. Then I see Crispin on his feet heading to the entrance, Sarah was next to me and saying something but none of it made since. Ericson was also on the move, but he was heading to my wheelchair. It had been parked at the far wall, so it was out of the way, and started rolling it to me. Before I could even grasp what was going on. Davien picked me u

    *It’s the memory. You need to put it to rest or you will die like you did back then.* Nadia shrieked, as I continued to cough, only to start seizing. It lasted only a few minutes, but it caused a lot of commotion in the car as well as pain for me.“Theresa, SOMETHING IS WRONG. She can’t breathe!” My dad roared as he positioned me across the seat, so I was facing the ceiling, and he was next to me. I wasn’t sure what was going on. But seeing my dad ripped his jacket off and folded it up to put it under my head. Then with his handkerchief he wiped my forehead, which suddenly felt cold. Looking back at the ceiling I wondered if I was going to die like this.But not long later Theresa was in my view and examined me. I could hear Sarah directing the driver to drive faster and something else that didn’t make sense. “Yes, we need a mixture of blood from high elites and serum of my brother. We will be there in…” I couldn’t hear that last part as I started coughing again and seized once again.

    ---Another’s POV--- Sitting in the back booth as I looked around the restaurant, I just wondered what I will do from this moment on. It’s been a good run, 30 long years, 25 one of those years with my late husband and now my cook Carl is leaving. He understood my husbands’ recipes and how to treat our regulars. Will the few we have left, given how things have changed. No one wants to eat at a Ma and Pops or even give back to the neighbor these days. I don’t blame the people but also wish they would just give us a chance to show them a different type of cuisine. Which leads me back to why Carl is leaving me, he got a chance to study at Advanced Culinary Arts school in Manhattan, Fort Nethers Territory. He has till the end of the week then he has to drive up there. It will take him at least two days, I’m hoping he will take four days and enjoy the sites and territories in between here - there. Once he gets to the school, he won’t have time or the energy to spend touring Manhattan. It’

    ---Miguel’s POV---“What do you mean she collapsed?” I yelled as I entered the mansion. Lucy had already run up the stairs in search of her with Sarah hot of her heels. Most likely to guide her to the room that’s Meri in this place.“Hello soul guide. It’s been a while!” came his voice. He never changes no matter what era we are in or what’s going on. King Davien Hawkyns, the true father of my soul partner and a walking nightmare if you cross him. He was seated on the couch across from the lobby in the dark seating room. The lights were off, and the curtains closed but the light from the fire was enough to bask him in a soft glow. which added to his overall dominating aura.Though in truth it wasn’t the fire that caused his glow it was his own inner aura. In the sun or under the artificial lighting, his skin tone looks pale or almost off-white, but if you watch as he passes through shadows then you’ll see his inner light shining through his skin. It is one of the many reasons people f

When she didn’t make any moves, I started tickling her again, but she didn’t react, so I pinched her in the armpit. >She yelped as she rolled off me and slapped me in the chest as she asked, “Why did you do that?”“Je t'ai demandé de déménager! Merde, Lu!” I reiterated as I adjusted so I could roll onto my side and look at her. >Only I was surprised to hear her next statement, “Meri when are you going to stop speaking like that. I don’t understand what you are saying. Well not exactly as I know you and can guess what you are saying.”“Lu, de quoi tu parles?” I demanded of her as I sat up. >“See what I mean, something is wrong!” hearing Sarah’s voice I looked across the room to the door.

    At this little gesture everything in the room changed. Sarah, Lucy, and Miguel were questioning me about what happened to me and where I learned French and plus why did I think Miguel’s name was Mickeal.Davien and Ericson were at the door talking with Theresa and Steven, then Theresa sprinted out of the room as Steven walked back to me. But before he could get to my side, a gust of wind blew into the room, and I was being picked up and moved. I say move as the next thing I can see is another room and Crispin. Everything happened so fast that my head felt light-headed and woozy.“Just breath in and out. That’s it. I got you Meri!” Crispin said as he sat in front of me on the bed. “Can you tell me about the life, or the memory recall you just went through!”“Comment as-tu fait ça? Pourquoi as-tu fait ça? Qu’est-ce que le rappel de mémoire?” I asked one after the other as I continuously took breaths. I knew I needed to get handle all of this or I would get overwhelmed. “How did you d

I can’t believe who I’m seeing, it’s been years since I’ve seen him. “How was Oaxaca City RJ?” I asked before running over to him and jumping up to wrap myself around him so that I could somewhat give him a hug, given how huge he is. Which amounting to me hanging off his chest as I smiled up at him.“Hey Monkey, still hanging around I see! Oaxaca city was great but that was last month, I actually got back last week but you already left to come get our lost princess.” RJ laughed as he hugged me tight to him as he spun us around the kitchen. Everyone moved out of our way and before long we were in the dining room. Our laughter filled the room until I heard Lucy.“Who are you talking about? Who’s the lost princess?” Lucy asked.“Oh, hello there. Sorry Monkey distracted me earlier. I am Ericson Jr Solace, but everyone calls me RJ.” RJ detangles me from him and walks to

    ---(;P)~ ~(Nixie’s memories)~ ~(d:)--- It has been three weeks since after leaving the hell hole that was our old life at that village, and we still haven’t reached our destination. I’m worried for my sister Anneliesa as she didn’t sign up for this and plus, I haven’t been able to really talk with her. As they are keeping us apart. For some reason we couldn’t ride in the same carriage and plus that strange guy King Davien who just asks me weird questions about my childhood. Though I really don’t mind answering as my Angel, Crisal is also riding with us, and he is a lot of fun to talk with. Except he keeps the king in the conversation. So, I’m just playing along for we have to be close or at least halfway there, to this unknown destination. For I am so over this ride down memory lane. I did know that getting in the carriage meant I was at King Davien’s mercy, but he has of yet tell me what he wants of me in return for taking me from my un

    Groaning as I collapsed on the ground, I just wished today could be over already. *Why did I agree to this again?* I ask Nadia as I stare at the ceiling of the studio. I knew I didn’t have long before that mad woman, Cecilia, came for me. She just didn’t let up, didn’t even matter that I was still recovering from my injuries or that I was a novice. She came at me hard and demanded that I didn’t quit, or she will strike Maniac. Which she has a few times when I really did try to call it quits. Maniac didn’t really like that and reacted horribly. He almost tore her arm off when he locked on her lower arm. She didn’t flinch or yell, just looked at me and waited for my response. I told Maniac to stand down and not to react to her. So, I really can’t stop, as if I don’t move, she’s going to attack Maniac and given he is actually listening to me, he could get hurt as he won’t block or move. Groaning once more, I sat up and looked right at her. She’s just s

    ---Merida’s POV--- So, getting hurt was kind of a blessing as I no longer had to assist Lucinda, but I did miss our talks, or really her stories. But now I get to hang out with Jenn and Sarah and watch them in their training classes. Though it is boring at times, Nadia helps get me on track by telling me how I can do those moves. In fact, I’m really surprised how much nicer Nadia has been lately. Even her voice is more soothing and comforting to me. I really am enjoying it, but I also miss her harsh words and shrill tone. Even her loudness is absent and that troubles me. It’s like she sees me as glass or better yet that she’s hiding something from me. But for the life of me I can’t think of what she is hiding. “Meri, are you listening?” Sarah asks me as she drops on the bench next to me. Jenn is across the room putting the stuff away. So training is over, but I was zoning out, so I didn’t notice anything. Another

    ---Unknown POV--- It’s been months and I finally learned where they hid her. She was tucked away at the castle. I was pissed for that meant I couldn’t see her or get close but I had a friend in the castle and they could check on her for me. “Hello Des, what’s up?” came Melody Riera’s voice. She wasn’t high on the rooster as a laundry maid, but she knew everything that was happening in the castle. Being in the laundry room, she could hear all types of gossip and ask about personal items given she needed to be aware of who owned what and where to send it or how to treat it. “Melody, I need you to look into a young lady that just arrived in the castle.” I say, I pause to think how to describe her without telling Riera who she is. I figured they are keeping quiet for the moment as she is still young and unaware of our world. “She’s a young girl with light brown or dark blonde hair. She’s quiet.” “Are you talking about that girl t

    ---Ericson’s POV--- To think my little apple could be so stubborn, especially when she’s hurt. Only it was the fact that she was determined to see to Maniac that I relented and assisted her. And when I say assisted, I mean I picked her up and carried her to the other side of the room and held her as she fussed over the flea-bitten annoyance. Though it was his response to her that really shocked me. That overgrown menace just rolled his eyes at her as he let her touch him and kiss him. Sharing a look with my king, who patiently watched, we waited till the vet said that’s all he could do. Not that he could do anything, as Maniac refused his touch or treatment. “Tell me what to do and I’ll do it.” Meri suddenly said. The vet, seeing no harm in it started to instruct her, while we assisted as she was still not allowed to move her left arm. Before long Maniac was patched up and licking her as she spoke to him, “Ok, ok! Now you rest as Steven

    ---Sarah’s POV--- I was seething as I watched the vampire council argue about Meri’s intentions. How I know they will choke when they learn the truth! As any relationship or good graces, they were hoping to build with the Princess when she is found, just got destroyed. Though I really don’t see that Barbas ever being friendly, he’s always causing issues. He doesn’t like anyone who he sees as below him. Yet he doesn’t understand that he has no power, him being Councilor Sylvia’s beloved is all show. She is the one infatuated with him and made him her beloved when her true beloved was killed in the last war. That vampire was strong and respected, he died protecting a town full of people and he didn’t expose his nature or the mission that was happening nearby. In fact, Steven says his sacrifice and courage that day ensured the mission and that we won that war. Though the thing that gets me is that Councilor Sylvia got her seat in honor of him.

    I wasn’t sure what to do, as no one was in the foyer. But one hope was to get attention from someone and maybe help. “That was really stupid little girl.” the guy growled as he stood up and shook the dust off his clothes. Shit he was a vampire and from his clothes and the room he found me in front of, he was one of the guests. I know he couldn’t be a council member as they were in a meeting right now but maybe one of the assistants. *There was no way I could fight him off or get him to wait until someone arrived. Help!* *Girl those pompous asses don’t care for others who aren’t in their coven. They would rather face the consequences then wait to hear anything. We need to do something.* Na rumbles, I barely listened as I watched the guy step to me, as he looked me over. “Your not a regular here. Who sent you to spy on us?” he questioned. I wasn’t sure how to answer that as why would he think I was a spy. “You should answer me before I dec

    I didn’t move a muscle as I looked from her to the big cat. I had met him earlier in the week and learned that he wasn’t like the other War cats. In fact, he didn’t have a handler, as he refused to submit to anyone but my father. That’s why he was made a War Cat of the castle, as he was very good at recognizing who was welcomed and who needed to be watched. That’s how Lucinda explained him to me before telling me his name. And what a name it is. He is called Maniac as you never know what he is thinking or will do. Only he hasn’t hurt any staff of the castle and just scares people if they act up. He has scratched a few people, but Lucinda said they were asking for it, but beyond that everyone just kept their distant from him. So yeah, waking up to him nestled in my lap was a shock. The first day here Lucinda let me pass out the treats to the War Cats, as long as the guests didn’t see and plus, I had the handler’s permission. Which they all did. But M

    ---Merida’s POV--- So, a lot has changed starting with my location. I am now living in a castle, in a huge room that shows one of the mountains of the islands of Crysthalle, on Crusillia island. And I even got a puppy, a pug to be more precise. I named her Ladybug and am being taught how to care for her and train her. Lady Rowana says it will help me in building my confidence and showing her how will I lead. Will that was Na’s interpretation of it, as Lady Rowana just told me I had a month to show my skills. Not that I understand a thing of what she was asking of me. But Na told me to agree, and Sarah was nodding her head to agree, so I agreed. Though what floored me was I was to help the Head Maid with her chores for the next 2 weeks as everyone else went to training to learn how to fight. Yeah, that sucked to be once again separated from everyone else. Though I was ok that Mr. Bell wasn’t here, as he had to stay behind and help with th
