2021-12-10 23:59:00A few more days passed and things remained the same. Well, not so much. King Marvelon decided to go back to school. Though he looked like a ghost, he still tried to study and all that stuff land folks did for their educational programs. He had this idea about wanting to graduate. I researched what it meant and it was something land folks did at the end of these school days. It was similar to the process merfolks did for the Guard Ceremonies but had a slight difference, nonetheless.
I tried not to ponder too much on such a thing. It didn't matter anyway. With King Marvelon gone most of the day, I spent my time out at the beach. The bed felt too big and empty without him. Mia appeared happier these days. I couldn't tell if it was because King Marvelon was out of bed or not. She was just less annoying.King Marvelon rolled on his side. "I have a class in the afternoon today."I stared at the hair dangling from his forehead. "Oh, okay."This sRelated chapters
The Hidden King Aqualia
I followed Prince Mitchalus into Alex's old room. It was much different than before. The mattress was void of any sheets and the pillows were in the middle of the bed. The remaining of the other things were in the same position as before. It was as if no one had been in this room for months. I couldn't help but wonder where Jayel slept or what he did in this room. If he even came in here.Prince Mitchalus perched on the edge of the mattress. He said nothing but observed me.I closed the door behind me and hugged myself. "I thought you said you wanted to talk."He patted the spot beside him on the bed. I hesitated at first but decided to comply. The thing would run smoother that way. The faster this conversation went, the sooner he would leave."What's going on between you and Marv?" Prince Mitchalus asked as soon as my bottom touched the bed.I gave the calmest answer that came to mind. "He's my King. If there was anything more

I struggled to move away from Prince Michalus but his fingers sank into my hip, holding me in place. "Would you move? I want to leave."Prince Mitchalus pressed into me. "No, I'll move whenever you agree to return to Antarctica with me. I love you and I refuse to let you go."I cackled. "You refuse? You can't thrust your love on someone, Mitchalus, that is not how it works. I want no part in you and your twisted family. I already have a King. I will never bow to Fesel. Can you allow such a person to rule beside you? The Antarcticans will notice something is wrong. They will see right through me."They would never accept me. If I showed any sign of weakness, they would exploit it. The Antarcticans needed a leader they could count on. They wanted someone who was able to create a bond with the Sea Witch Queen. I would forever see Fesel as the enemy. It didn't matter that she was King Marvelon's paramour.Prince Mitchalus rested his forehead a

Marvelon"Mr. Criag is waiting for you downstairs," Mia informed me, walking into the room.I was aware of that even before she said it. Though he masked his aura, the essence of it lingered in the atmosphere. I could tell he was disappointed with me. Mom hadn't come to see me once. I couldn't help but think it was because of dissatisfaction with how I handled the situation. This was the first time she left me to handle something by myself and I fucked it up. Shelly and Alex were dead.I wouldn't want to see me either. The sight of myself in the mirror filled me with disgust. I was such a fuck up. I could only imagine what Mom was thinking about me."I'll be down shortly," I announced.I told myself that five minutes ago. It had to be why Mia was up here."Mr. Craig insists that I don't leave your side until you are downstairs," Mia went on to say. "He wanted to remind you that he is not Aqua and you should not let hi

The rain pelted me. It was different for Craig. When the downpour ended, he was dry. I couldn't help but be in awe at how he was able to control the rain. It had probably fallen due to my sudden change in emotion. Still, I had no idea how to control it as he did. His clothes were waterless even though he was sitting beside me. I would say that was an achievement that made me somewhat jealous. I always knew Craig was powerful. He was the only merfolk no one could tell was not human.Even now, he had no aura that radiated out of the ordinary. It was like he was not even one of us. It had to take a vast amount of control to be able to manipulate one's aura as he did. Craig could do cool tricks that not even Mom could not. When my powers were sealed away, he used to send jolts of energy to me to help me to duplicate his acts. Like in the winter, he would turn the mist at dawn into the snow. Once, he scanned through my memories and displayed them before my closed lids like on

Craig left to go back home to where ever that was for him. He had to be there for something. He never stated what and I never questioned. I trusted him. He had his secrets and me asking questions would only root up the past he tried hard to bury. I couldn't do that to him. We had just gotten back on good terms. I didn't want to mess that up.Mitch followed suit. How Aqualia got him to leave was still a mystery. He was not pleased with the arrangement but made no complaints. It was weird. Once again, I said nothing. It was none of my business. I was just happy things were working out for them."Marvelon?"I glanced in the direction of the ajar door. Aqualia entered the room and closed the door behind her. For some odd reason, I kind of expected this. It was a little shocking when she had Mia clean up Alex and Sophie's room to sleep in it. I chalked it up as the deal with Mitch for him to allow her to stay here. However, Aqualia had been sleeping in my

The house became much quieter with Aqualia gone. It was hard seeing her off but we all had things to do. She was a Queen. It made no sense in hiding here with me. She had her people to think about as much as me. She was not making much fuss about her coronation which figured she was still on mental defense with the Antarcticans. I did hope everything worked out the way she wanted it.Craig was not back as yet. I have been spending more time training with my guards but it was not enough. They kept holding back. No one wanted to harm the King. I was getting nowhere with any of them. The only person that fought with me and didn't care was Martin. I figure he was upset with me but chose not to speak his mind. Again, it was because I was the King. It was an annoying title, but I had to live with it, if not for myself, for my people.It would have been nice if Mitch was here. I could have done a one-on-one battle. He seemed pretty tough. It would have been a blast an

This sucked!I couldn't put in a hit in a battle against Aquant. He just stood in the same place, toying with me. Not one hit. No matter how hard I tried, it was useless. Even when I used the wind to predict his movement, he ended up doing it faster and I kept landing on my ass. Pushing me to the ground could be considered laughable. However, one time, two times, for the entire morning was irritating. Aquant kept evading my moves. Every single one.If this was a real fight, I would have been dead already. I just didn't understand. With the old man, things were different. Yeah, so I always ran away but my skills should be better than this. One hit. That was all I needed.I pushed off the ground.This was it, Marvelon. I could do this. Gramps was far more experienced and vicious. If this was his show, I would have gotten beaten into a pulp right now. And, I spent the majority of my teenage years with that guy. I could hit Aquant. I just had

Things hadn't gotten easier with my training. The pep talk from Mia and Martin helped a little. But, just a little. The training with Torus was even more intense. I stayed on my feet for much longer with each battle. Trust me, it was not an accomplishment to be happy about.Torus's tactics were different from Aquant's. He didn't have the speed but he had so much more. He had the strength and powers to back him up. Thank God for Alex. If it was not for his training with me using those same powers, fighting with Torus would have been with me being a fish exploring land for the first time.Regardless of my efforts to fight back, I was beaten time and time again. Unlike Aquant's thrusts to the ground, Torus's attacks were much harsher. He fed me with kicks, slaps, punches, energy blasts, and my least favorite, time-outs. What were those? Well, it was when my body was held to the ground while a series of pain circulated my system. It was as painful as it sounded.

The Hidden King Author's Note
Marvelon's story has come to an end. I had so much fun with this story. It has blossomed so much since it started. The first draft was way less complicated than this final piece. The original version was a love story about Aqualia and Marvelon. However, as I wrote, the panster in me came alive. New characters joined the story and the old characters played new parts. Their lives were molded differently. Gosh, most of them probably hate me for all the tribulations I have put them through.Oh, I bet Marvelon does. Aqualia might be. A little. Oh, my gosh, since we are on the subject, I can only imagine what is going through Aquant and Torus's heads. 'All my possessions for the head of the author'. Yep, or maybe they would threaten to find me. Oh, yeah, that's it.Still, they are my babies. Torus is my favorite character in the entire story, and I thoroughly enjoyed the scene where he and Guardian Shelliot sparred in the cave at the Antarctican Manor—yes, I am the psycho who enjoyed reading
The Hidden King Marvelon
"Sorry I'm late, guys," Fel swam into the cave. "Prince Torus has become such a big baby these days."I never thought I would hear those words. Baby and Torus in the same sentence. Though he and Sophia mated, he acted aloof to the entire situation. If it had not been for Sophia and Mitch, I wouldn't have thought the guy would be mated. He was just that kind of asshole. Sophia didn't seem to mind being mated to him or Mitch. I mean, come on, she chased after an ass like me for years. I just wished she would have gotten a better ending rather than Mitch and Torus. After all, she had been through, she deserved so much more.Mitch sighed. "Where is he now?""He's in my chambers, sleeping," Fel answered."What's wrong with him?" I probed, looking for answers.Aqualia's shoulders bounced."He's rejecting his coupling urges," Fel responded. "The more he does it, the more he's losing control. And, a merger losing control is n
The Hidden King Aqualia
My heartbeat pounded in my ears. When the executive stated that the King needed my presence in the King and Queen's quarters, I panicked. Mitchalus has time and time again pointed out he had no interest in sleeping in the same quarters. This was the main reason we avoided this area. It was not meant for us. Which would explain my nervousness.Mitchalus was not the type of person to change his mind out of the blue. He would fight it until I submitted. However, before he did no such thing. Instead, he helped my ruined Kingdom to go under construction. It had to mean he accepted where we were and decided to let me go. For some odd reason, I was heartbroken. It was a much more wrenching feeling than anything else.Mitchalus gave up. It should have made me happy. All I ever wanted was to be rid of this Kingdom and ruled in mine. Now, Mitchalus was giving me the chance to do so and it was like my world was ending.Stupid girly feelings!I had ho
The Hidden King Marvelon
"Are you sure you want to do this, Mom?" I asked as she got ready to leave.It was not that I didn't want her to go. That was the plan, after all. But my visit home was different. There was a tension there that was odd. My house was always a cheery place. It made me feel comfortable and safe. However, when I went home, that calm was gone. It was as if everyone was holding on with a thin line.I couldn't tell if it was me. My relationship with Fel was not too stellar. She was different. No longer was she shy or sweet. She only stuck around because she needed my help to free Craig, and she was not afraid to let me know. Around everyone else, it would appear that she was the perfect mate. Behind the scenes, she was a monster. Too headstrong and determined to do things her way.She couldn't wait to get away from me. The more she rebelled, the more I craved her. I needed help, it was clear with my interest in women. Still, I couldn't help myself. Fel subm
The Hidden King Marvelon
My heart rate went off the charts. A chill ran down my spine. The anger in Fel's eyes had me paralyzed in the spot. This was the first time I have ever seen her and she did not look innocent and shy. The determination and anger were aimed at me. It didn't matter, though. All I wanted was to kiss her. For some strange reason, she was way hotter than before.It could be the aquamarine dress. It was too provocative to be considered such. The majority of her breasts were spilled out from the deep V neck design. The two slits on each of her thighs were enough to keep my eyes on her movements. If that was not enough, the material was thin to invite every heterosexual male. Yet, it was thick enough to hold everything from the viewer.Her hair was down. The crown was a perfect addition to the colors in her hair. Her hair had gotten longer. It swayed from her hip with the wind."Fel," I breathed.She hissed. "How dare you! How dare you!"
The Hidden King Queen Fesel
"We'll go to see her now," I ordered Amoria.Time waited on no man. I didn't have time to waste. The sooner we found the Seer, the better things were."Aren't you supposed to be resting?" Amoria observed me. "Your mother just died."If I had not been smart and severed my connection to that mermaid, I would have to be resting now. The excruciating pain would have been enough to keep me bedrisen for at least a few days.I pushed from my throne and swam up beside her. "She was no mother of mine. She doesn't deserve that title. I refused to be held back by such a mermaid.""Hmmm." Amoria opened a portal before us. "You really have changed. It's kind of scary. Too bad, I know how to handle crazy bitches."A corner of my mouth twitched at the comment. "Look who's talking? You're the craziest of us all.""Damn right about that."Neither of us moved as the hole got bigger. I didn't trust Amoria one
The Hidden King Queen Fesel
The three guards never moved or said anything. One of them was keeping a secret, yet none of them wanted to talk. I shifted my tail, getting more comfortable. If they thought they would get away with using their powers against Craigleon, they had the next thing coming."Craigleon was the best person in this Kingdom," I admitted. "I'm sure all three of you can agree. He must have helped each of you in one way or another. He helped me in more ways than one. He taught me things my parents were too busy to teach. He was patient and kind. The kind of person that you couldn't help loving."One encounter with my brother changed many lives. He was a beautiful man, inside and out. Mother's masterpiece. It was no secret she loved him more. If he had been born a girl, she would have tossed me aside from the very beginning. Maybe I wouldn't have been born."When I was younger and scared Craigleon was the one who snuck in my chambers and sang to me until I fell a
The Hidden King Princess Fesel
Everyone bowed at my arrival to the Bedding Cave. This place was essential to our Kingdom. The cave rested beside The Bedding. Once the star has been passed on from one Queen to the next, the previous Queen would be taken to this cave. Here she could relax and pass away in peace. The Bedding is next to it, which helped to rest her shell of a body there once she passed on to the ancestral world.Father was the only one in the Mother Queen chamber. The minute he noticed me, he moved from the chair beside Mother's bed."Fesel, are you okay?" he asked. Though his lips moved, his facial expression held no ounce of concern.If I had not known the other side of my father, his behavior would have fooled me like it did everyone else. However, I knew what he was like as a Father. And, this was not it. The spark he once had was gone. I needed to know what he did that caused him to look this dead. I needed to know the truth. What was going on? This was why I nee
The Hidden King Princess Fesel
My eyes fluttered open. It took me a while to recall my current situation. I was a Queen, my mother was on the brink of death, and here I was. My heartbeat pounded in my temples. I swung my tail from the bed and sat up."Your Majesty, you are awake," the dark sorcerer rushed to me. "You gave me quite the scare."Oh right. I sought out the dark sorcerer to get rid of all connections to everyone close to me. Mother was on the brink of death and I didn't want to feel that useless heartache. Therefore, I had it all taken away. I shouldn't have to suffer if any of them die. None of them took my pain when I suffered. None of them."I thought you might have died for sure," the dark sorcerer went on. "I warned you about that spell. It is a miracle you are still alive. Breaking a connection with one person is as much stress on your body, much less three people all at once."The pain was excruciating enough to cause me to lose consciousness. I
