2024-10-29 19:42:56Horrible! This was getting out of hand. King Mitchalus has been so stubborn, stuck in his pride. He refused to sleep in the same quarters as me. The executives were taking notice. I was sure they all thought it was my fault. They kept their lips sealed and their minds at ease around me. That alone made it obvious they either pitied me or blamed me. This was the Antarctican Pod, everyone was busy and their minds often buzzed with thoughts. Then it stopped around me. And only me.
Prince Torus was busy most days but once he spotted me, he never spared me anything but a death glare. Without a doubt, he was blaming me for his brother's actions. Unlike the executives, he was not discreet with his disdain.They were all accusing me of doing something, yet King Mitchalus got away with his actions scotch free. Heck, all there was left for him to do at this point was bed another mermaid. He mated both his paramour and his first mate. Therefore, he was unable to impregnatRelated chapters
The Hidden King Marvelon
The ancestral world was nice to sleep in. No dreams were out to prevent resting. No extra noises or discomfort. This place was awesome. I loved it.Sophia left a couple of hours ago. It could be minutes. There was no way to tell time here. It did feel like a long time. I dozed off twice and she had not returned. As per my request, she left to gather information from the ancestors about where Queen Ophelia might have sent Craig. I just wanted to ensure he was okay. Once that has been ticked off the list, I would return home and get myself sorted out before Fenon's visit.Alex was yet to show up too. Which meant Amoria had not left for Fel's ceremony. That gave me peace of mind. I still had a little time left. Once everything went smoothly here, I would be able to have enough time to get all my priorities in order.Sophia returned with two mermaids. Though they had different appearances, their demeanor was similar. Out of the three women, Sophia was th

The island was under attack. It was still too early. Damn you, Fenon."What is our defense status?" I asked, desperately hoping we had enough manpower to fight off Fenon's guards.Mia thrust pieces of metal against my chest. "Please put this on, sir."This was it. I took too long to get to the friggin' treasure room. Even though time dwindled, I was still too careless."There are guards positioned to keep you dad at all cost, your majesty," Mia reported. "We don't have a lot of protection, so Martin and a few are trying to hold off the enemy from gaining access to the castle."Most of my guards were on their way here. Craig had managed to teleport some of them here before he left for his home. Still, we had the remaining traveling here via ship. Mia and Martin were even supposed to hire more guards. All those were supposed to be done before Fenon got here. We expected him to arrive later. Surely, the ceremony has not started yet

The time was here. The time for Princess Fesel to become a Queen. I was more than looking forward to this. We were not invited but because this Kingdom was allied to the Sea Witch Queen, we were given the privilege of getting a broadcast. We would not be able to view everything as when we would be in the City. Rumor has it that only the eyes of sorcerers were able to witness certain things. Why? I was still not sure about it.I never questioned it. The executives were the ones I had to talk to and it was odd that my mate never taught me these things. Their words, not mine. Of course, it was talked about when they thought I was not listening. Therefore, I limited the number of questions asked. These days all I did was eavesdrop. I admitted I was a bit clueless about being the Queen. Mitchalus was always busy and when he was not he avoided me. There was no other way to gain information.Hence, I fixed my schedule, so I, too, would be busy. It has helped a whole l

I spotted the first executive down the hall and requested an assembly of all the executives and guards migrated here from the Southern Pod. Before the ruin of our City Father had sent away most of our people to seek refuge at other Kingdoms. Most of those people have not returned yet. I was not willing to allow them to travel the sea since Fesel had not become Queen yet.Once she became the Sea Witch Queen and things were back to normal, I planned to clean up what was left of the Southern Kingdom, and rebuild it before summoning my people. Since Mitchalus and Fesel were such good friends, I was banking on that friendship to put to rest what happened in my Kingdom. For the sake of my people. I was looking forward to it since Mitchalus refused to speak to me. Things would be better once I lived in my Kingdom while he lived in his.Until then, King Marvelon needed my help. We were friends. Even if not for friendship, I had to do this for my King. To accomplish my
The Hidden King Marvelon
With our limited manpower, we were able to hold off the attackers from exiting the beach. I knew my guards were skilled but no way in hell did I realize they were this amazing. It like playing a freaking video game. Everyone was in tune with each other. Martin spat orders and everyone followed. Their strategy was phenomenal.Once someone in our team was injured, a new guard went out in the battle as a distraction while someone else helped the injured man off the battleground. When the enemy figured out our strategy, Martin came up with a new one. He was like a real commander. Just spitting ideas and making everything work. At one point, I pictured him leading an army.I would have been a great asset to this battle if my men would just let me participate. Fenon was not here as yet. Everyone wanted me to be ready when he came. If I helped now, my energy level would be depleted. I needed to be at full strength to face the bastard."How many men do we ha
The Hidden King Marvelon
Martin's older brother Terranean was a cool guy. He was way too chill towards the circumstances we were in. I would be lying if I said his behavior did not have me being a little relaxed. One thing for sure this guy had a thing for fruits. He kept repeating that they were the only land delectable that could be eaten underwater. I had to give it to him there. He was flat out right about that. Still, I thought his love for fruits was because they could be used beneath the ocean. He seemed to brighten up at the mention of those fruits.Of course, it had to take a merman to appreciate those little things we didn't when we were on land. Which had me thinking back to the merfolks diet. I couldn't help but wonder if fish was all they consumed. Raw fish. All day every day. No wonder they liked other things with flavors. Things that were cooked and sauteed in seasoning and sauces. Even in this case, fruit was a prized possession.I figured when I invited them all over,

Little by little the atmosphere started to feel less calm and more chaotic. The enemy has retreated to the other side of the beach. Still, the air was filled with tension as we all waited for what was next to come. The cool breeze turned into a hostile wind, whipping the trees from left to right. Black clouds covered the sky. The sea was anything but calm.It had begun. Without being there, I could tell by the behavior of the ocean. It was excited, crashing waves as high as a hill into each other. A new Queen was being chosen. That was enough to be excited about. The only sad part of this ceremony was that the previous Queen would die. I wanted to speak with her one last time. Everyone knew her as the 'wicked Queen' and maybe she was. She did send her child away to be alone forever. But, I saw her as a lonely mermaid, who was afraid. If only we had time, maybe she would have forgiven Craig for leaving her and she would bring him back. We could have worked as a family. One

We were ready. Arrangements were made. Strategies and planning were made. Everything was organized. All my men were piped. The environment was even more riled up than before. The sky and the ocean mirrored each other with the same black and harsh behavior. Regardless, we waited.I changed into this ridiculous armor thing. It was uncomfortable but helped to protect me. I didn't have my crown nor my trident but I didn't want to leave my men alone to get it. There was no telling what would happen if I took too long. I needed to face Fenon before this started. One last time. I had to give my all, not just for myself or Fel but for my people.Lightning pierced through the sky, lashing out on the ocean. With each slash, the water got rougher. None hit the island or the trees.Then within a blink of an eye, everything went still."Is it done?" Aegean asked. "It looks like the ceremony is complete."Aqualia gazed up at the sky. "That's

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

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

"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

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
