THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden THIRTY-SEVENTH CHAPTER:
It took some doing and some crazy maneuvering, but we all got out even my dad, Davien. I’m still getting used to having him as dad, let alone having him help or even care about me or my friends. As soon as he was out, he was barking orders and people obeyed. Warrick and the driver were the fastest in carrying out his orders, while Peter ran to get the nurse. Chad just stood back and watched, until I grabbed his hand and squeezed it. Then he just collapsed onto me sobbing, looking to Larry I mouthed ‘What?’ but he was no help as he just gapped at us.“Chad, Chad listen to me. Steven will be ok. I’m ok and I was hit by a car.” I thought my words would help but instead he cried harder.At a loss for words, I just held him tight as he cried. I knew we were a sight given me short stature and his tall muscle build. Chad is on the wrestle team for the school but this year he also joined Steve’s football team at the local recreation center. Steve is really thick-headed unless you talk about f

---Ericson’s POV---The car ride back to the house was silent but not an uncomfortable one. We all just seemed to be lost in our thoughts, will Meri the most as she was probably thinking about her friend. One minute it was a carefree and light moment then it turned serious really fast. Mike the driver told me wat happened when I arrived with Mr. Rock. Though I really wanted to throttle that female teacher. Did she not have any common sense.“Ericson, can I ask you something?” Meri asked me, startling me from my thoughts.“Will you just did!” I joked with her, seeing her smile I added, “Meri, you can ask me anything and I will try to answer to the best of my abilities.”“Who was Pomona?” she asked me. I choked on the air as I saw my king looking at me. I knew this was going to happen, but in a moving vehicle where not only I can’t escape but I have to answer her with him listening.“Well, um...” I cleared my throat as I thought about how to explain this, but I didn’t have to.“Many cen

---Merida’s POV---And here I thought I asked a simple question. No, he just told me he was a mixed Alien human… *Wait he said Crustalia planet, not Crysthalle islands or even of earth. He was born in space. So…* I thought loudly not really thinking of everyone who could be listening in. I just wasn’t sure how to say it.“Meri all pure-blooded Crysthalian’s are in fact aliens of earth and cannot be actually aged in today’s standards.” Crispin says as he appears at the doorway to the living room.“Yeah, like that explains anything. Meri, they have been here since before written or even common language.” Sarah says as she sits on the couch next to Ericson, then as an afterthought she adds. “No ruling country or established culture was around when our king first stepped on Earth and friended the Natives of North America. Does that help.”“So, let’s say I understand and that I believe what you are saying, which is that my dad here,” I pause as I point to my dad and take a breath, “has bee

There were no words that I could say as I hugged Jenn. I’ve known her for as long as I can remember, and she was a rock for me until she left last year. Though what Ericson said had me questioning everything. *Is she someone from a previous life? Or can she be a child I had in a previous life? No, wait can she be my mom?**Hold up, hold up girl. Don’t go jumping there. I’m not sure who she is but we can trust her. That’s all I will say for now. I’ll look in to…* Nadia said then drifted away as she spoke to herself. Shaking my head, I smiled at her silliness.“Merry what are you doing?” Jenn asked me as she pushed me back and looked at me. “Your acting weird.”“So, you didn’t know ab…” Crispin started speaking but Sarah slammed her hand over his mouth. “Don’t listen to this lunkhead. He’s worried about Merida and with everything we have learned lately we are wondering who knew what she was dealing with.” Sarah rushed out before pinching Crispin and most likely threatening him to shut u

---Miguel’s POV---Mr. Rock gave us all 15 minutes to call our parents, as he worked on passes so we could be excused for being late for first period. Though I couldn’t care less about school as I was more worried about my family and Steve. He wasn’t the smartest guy, but he made Meri laugh and never judged her. In my book he was an ok guy, if not good looking. Meri and I always went to his games as much as we could and watched him run.He was a running back and really good. He always was where he needed to be for his quarterback or how to get around the opposing team, or even to block. Though it did help to get a touchdown, if his team assisted his run. But I have never thought of asking him out, given he really has made no inclinations that he is gay and plus I knew Chad had a crush on him.Anyone with eyes could see how protective Chad was of him on and of the field. In fact, Chad joining the team was one of the reasons they were winning this year, as Chad was a great tight end. On

---Sarah’s POV---I really felt for her, and the fact that so much was happening, and she didn’t know. I saw Theresa wave at Ericson, who exited the room only to come back and settle on the couch as he looked at the king. I could see them communicating and Crispin was listening in, sometimes it really sucks not to have a gift. Only I was distracted as Theresa and Warrick left. Something happened, as the king’s left hand only acts when someone dies or there is an act of unspoken violence. I really wanted to ask but I didn’t want to draw attention.For I was on edge about that nightmare demon in the room. I had learned about them when I was younger but was cautioned to never interact with them. Given their nature, they can’t help but want to drain a person of their fears after making them live them. And I, being a natural born vampire I don’t have many fears, but I am many people’s worst fear. So nightmare demon’s love using us to cause terror. Many vampiric children have gone missing a

---Merida’s POV---It felt really good to hear the truth after so long, but I also was ashamed of what happened. I remembered that day and how after we got back with the ice cream, I was told to get in the car and that I was grounded for two weeks. I had always wondered why but knew not to ask or else my punishment could be worse. But now I did know and was pissed just like Crispin.My former dad, no. That man! Mr. Cogswell had observed my friends and I undressing and hanging out for some unknow time frame. For Lucy, Jenn, Jenn’s third older sister Maria, and I were just being young girls and were goofing off. We weren’t in hurry to go downstairs and had been in there for up to an hour. Then again, I was meant to spend the night and had been debating on going back downstairs as I didn’t want to see Daniella. We had argued early in the day when I told her she couldn’t stay just because she wanted to. I had been invited because it was Lucille’s 15 birthday weekend, Jenn’s second older s

---Crispin’s POV---I didn’t mean to scare her when I growled but RJ was being reckless with my sister and my liege. I knew the king nor Eric would allow anything to happen to either one but there was still a risk of them getting injured if the couch collapsed out then inward. But I have to admit it was funny to watch Eric get swallowed up by the couch, as well as watch Sarah try to free him. Only to have RJ yank him off the couch and end up falling onto the coffee table and destroy it. Then all humor was gone, though I was happy to see the king holding Meri and behind the couch they had been sitting on but looking done I just couldn’t keep a smile on. Walking out with everyone, I held the chair for Meri and talked with the king before turning to find RJ sitting next to her.“Oh, knuckle head lose the scowl, we all want to sit next to her.” Sarah reprimanded me as she sat next to RJ. I just couldn’t believe her.So, I sat across from Meri only to jump when that girl, Jenn sat next to

---Merida’s POV--- It was nerve wracking to sit in the room and wait. Yes, I had an Armed Guard and a lovely female court official with me, but I really didn’t know them. Then again, they weren’t really here for me, it was just their job to be here. Though Thomas the Armed Guard was taking this seriously even as he offered me a gentle smile right after Ericson left. Then focused on watching the unknown woman in the room and the door. Though I almost jumped out of my seat when the door opened, and Ericson was standing there. I saw Thomas shifting right before but I wished he had signaled to me what was happening. Seeing my startled face, Thomas winced but moved swiftly out of the room, as Ericson headed to me. “I’m sorry Meri I should have knocked on the door, but I was in a rush to see you.” Ericson exclaimed as he took my hands and rubbed them. “Ms. Cogswell is perfectly fine here Mr. Solace.” The lady who I have completely

---Ericson’s POV--- “Ok Merida I will be right beside you or on the other side of the door when you meet with the judge. So please just relax and answer the questions simply. If you get flustered or it gets too much just call me. I’ll be right there and will handle everything.” I said as we pulled into a parking lot at the courthouse. I had asked Mr. Anderson if we could enter through the back doors but he said no. Will it was more his boss that said no. I’m not happy about any of this, not that the king was any more pleased. He’s flying out soon, hopefully within the next hour. He really tried to leave last night but those blasted council members had questions. I know that he won’t let that happen again, he will be getting on the plane and heading here soon. It just won’t be in time for this, but he will be here tonight and tomorrow. Though I am not looking to tomorrow as that’s the day of the moron getting his eyes on my poor Merida. I
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden SIXTIETH-FIFTH CHAPTER:
---Miguel’s POV--- I felt so bad for Merida. She was still dealing with the fact that Nadia was keeping a secret and all the new information she got over the weekend. As well that Nadia blocked her when she was chatting with the king. I wish had be privy to that chat, but we needed to keep the information to a few people. The less who know what’s the plan, the more chance of success. Though to say she wasn’t happy wasn’t a good way of describing her this weekend. As she cried a lot. She couldn’t believe that someone was out using her as an excuse to hurt people and now someone died because of it. Then again, the fact that Nadia was keeping her in the dark or helping on some trap, really hurt her. I don’t think she and Nadia have kept secrets from each other, not that she could kept hers from Nadia. But she seemed to really trust Nadia. It really took all weekend to get her to calm down and understand we will get those responsible for it
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden SIXTIETH-FOURTH CHAPTER:
---Merida’s POV--- You would have thought I had been living in this house in this manner all my life. I get up, take a hot shower and then use the nicest towels ever and then spend a good amount of time going through the closet. I just can’t decide what to wear. Nadia and I argue over the name brand stuff, while I scour through the more understated stuff for something I might like. Then Sarah, Lucy, or Jenn or all of them came in and get me dress. Then we go downstairs for breakfast and gossip. The guys sometimes join us, but really, it’s just us and RJ. My dad though had to leave Saturday night, he flew back to his castle as something came up and he needed to deal with it in person. Plus, he wanted to talk to our sponsor as well. He promised to be back by my court appearance on Wednesday. Something I am not looking forward to but hey I promised, and everyone has been so supportive. *How can I back out now.* *Girl no one will demand or s

---Zander’s POV--- Smiling at Nathan as I put the last of my dishes in the window, I turn and see James platting up his last. He scowls at me seeing me wiping down my half of the worktable. I just shrug my shoulders at him and turn back to the stove. Placing lids on everything as I turn the heat off, so nothing burns as everyone tastes our dishes. “Hey, you guys! Are you done yet? I’m hungry!” Ma yells as she strolls into the kitchen. Turning around I see James placing his last plate in the window. “I just have to put the rest in the oven but yeah, I think we’re done. Right boy?” James answers as he looks at me and winks. I get a kick out of him. He always tries to get under my skin like this, not t
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden SIXTIETH-SECOND CHAPTER:
---Nadia’s POV--- So, he wants to face me, then Papi I’ll see how far you want to take this. I know my girl is worried about all the people who got hurt and are still recovering but none of this is her fault. Nor can they demand her to pay or step forward. For the real person they want is me or the version of me they remember. Everyone always thinks that I’m all about causing pain and chaos. Though yes, I do like doing that but on my terms not on someone else’s. Plus, I have strict rules about who gets hurt and how much. Everything that has been going on is just plain rude. They are causing unnecessary harm and pain with no real goal in sight. For what right do they have to demand my presence or that of my Girl. She just got out of that hell hole and now she is about to face her first obstacle of this life. That scumbag! Tim deserves to rot in a hole with bugs crawling all over him. I really wish I could get 5 minutes with him. I really would show him true pain
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden SIXTIETH-FIRST CHAPTER:
---Ericson’s POV--- Sighing in relief as I crossed the threshold of the house, I paused as I sensed where everyone was. The guards and staff were mostly in their places but acting weird. Even my son was acting weird. As he was pacing outside the study where everyone else was. I’m not sure what they are discussing but I could feel the tense all the way here. Though I really wanted to just get a drink and forget this day I needed to talk with the King. For that alpha of the Moonlight River pack is going to be a problem. I really can’t believe everything he said to me or even requested. He really acted like the rogues are targeting his pack and aiming to kill off all his members. The Cresent Luna has had more fatalities, and their members had to leave their daily lives behind and hide in emergency housing for the past month. We are just lucky that most of them work for shifters businesses and that all the warriors are willing to assist in getting all t
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden SIXTIETH CHAPTER:
Swallowing down the saliva that suddenly spawned in my mouth, I cleared my throat before explaining myself, “I have been practicing how to put up a block for the past month, but the nightmares have been going on for the past year or so…” “Ever since I left!” Jenn added as she moved to the sit next to me. Grabbing my hand, she squeezed it. I can see she wants to apologize, but it’s not her fault and plus I needed to learn how to deal with them. Mi sits back down but across from me and reaches across the table to add his hand to ours. His touch gives me strength so I can continue talking. “Jenn, I don’t remember what it was like before you came into my life, but I don’t wake up in a fit or screaming or crying. I just slept through them and woke up the next day wondering about them. I know they aren’t all the same, but they really don’t scare me. It’s like they are a film I am remembering but not completely getting.” I said as I squeezed her hand back
THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hidden FIFTIETH-NINTH CHAPTER:
---Merida’s POV--- Sitting there I just watched as Mi bounced his head on the table, I just worked on Jenn’s words. It was more than I thought. I had learned that shifters tend to run in packs as a way to strengthen themselves and protect their loved ones. Though if a trouble shifter causes issues in the pack, then they are kicked out and left to wander alone. Thus, making them rogues and any person that follows them. So, a promise of a new pack, where they are forgiven is too much to turn down, even a condition like causing panic in another. But then again would they go so far as to kill shifters just to join a new pack that hasn’t been established. *Wait has the pack even been formed?* “Jenn where is this pack set to be established?” I asked, causing everyone to halt in their movement and stare at me. “I’m sorry but no new pack has been recognized in this area and with my dad here. Won’t the leader or alpha have to approach my dad to b
