THE CRYSTHALIAN CHRONICLES; From Lost to Hiddenย ย ย SEVENTIETH-SIXTH CHAPTER:
---Miguelโs POV--- To say the past several days or even week have been a cake walk would have been a grave understatement. The only thing I can say is that we caught the alphas, and the rogues disbanded in response to it. Though the king ordered teams to hunt them down and bring them in to be questioned. But we didnโt stay to see what happened. The King decided the alphas of the packs could handle the aftermath, especially since it was their members who were put in harmโs way. Though Alpha Seth tried to grill Meri when he got her to the house, RJ wasnโt having it. Alpha Seth did stay around so he could speak with the king and Alpha David about the aftermath of the courthouse. The real surprise came when the judge, Judge Mathews, or for me Elder Andy of my momโs coven. I have met him several times, but I didnโt know he was a judge or that he was overseeing this case. Yeah that was a surprise but he just clapped me on the back and asked ab

---Meridaโs 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 Naโs 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 wasnโt here, as he had to stay behind and help with th

I didnโt move a muscle as I looked from her to the big cat. I had met him earlier in the week and learned that he wasnโt like the other War cats. In fact, he didnโt have a handler, as he refused to submit to anyone but my father. Thatโs 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. Thatโs 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 hasnโt 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 didnโt see and plus, I had the handlerโs permission. Which they all did. But M

I wasnโt sure what to do, as no one was in the foyer. But one hope was to get attention from someone and maybe help. โThat was really stupid little girl.โ 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 couldnโt 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 donโt care for others who arenโt 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. โYour not a regular here. Who sent you to spy on us?โ he questioned. I wasnโt sure how to answer that as why would he think I was a spy. โYou should answer me before I dec

---Sarahโs POV--- I was seething as I watched the vampire council argue about Meriโs 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 donโt see that Barbas ever being friendly, heโs always causing issues. He doesnโt like anyone who he sees as below him. Yet he doesnโt understand that he has no power, him being Councilor Sylviaโs 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 didnโt 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.

---Ericsonโs POV--- To think my little apple could be so stubborn, especially when sheโs 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 thatโs all he could do. Not that he could do anything, as Maniac refused his touch or treatment. โTell me what to do and Iโll do it.โ 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, โOk, ok! Now you rest as Steven

---Unknown POV--- Itโs been months and I finally learned where they hid her. She was tucked away at the castle. I was pissed for that meant I couldnโt see her or get close but I had a friend in the castle and they could check on her for me. โHello Des, whatโs up?โ came Melody Rieraโs voice. She wasnโt 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. โMelody, I need you to look into a young lady that just arrived in the castle.โ 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. โSheโs a young girl with light brown or dark blonde hair. Sheโs quiet.โ โAre you talking about that girl t

---Meridaโs 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, Iโm 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. Itโs like she sees me as glass or better yet that sheโs hiding something from me. But for the life of me I canโt think of what she is hiding. โMeri, are you listening?โ 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 didnโt notice anything. Another

---Meridaโs POV--- โPlease Lucy I just want to hear.โ I begged as Lucy tried to leave my room for the tenth time since I asked her. โMeri I really didnโt want to tell you, as youโre going to be worried.โ She says. I am scared sheโs going to run before I get her to talk so I grip her shirt with both hands and yank her to my bed. โLucy, you promised to spend your last night with me, and I just want to know what really happened after you left the courthouse that day.โ After looking at me for a moment, she finally collapses on my bed. โI donโt know why you want to know now. Itโs been months since then and everythi

---Zanderโs POV--- Rubbing my eyes, I look around but itโs dark, though I know my sister isnโt here. Hearing raised voices, I figured dad was back, except mom sounded scared and was pleading, why would she be pleading when dad is here. Plus, I canโt hear my sister. Sister wouldnโt just stand by and listen, she would be comforting mom or yelling at whoever was stressing her. Getting up I crawl across the floor and look down into the house. I see mom struggling with someone Iโve never seen before but as he moves to the door thatโs when I notice sister. He has sister in his arms and heโs trying to leave with her, but itโs sisterโs reaction that scares me. For there is no reaction (sheโs not hitting him, smiling, crying or even scowling) sheโs just holding onto his shirt with a blank look and empty ey

---Meridaโs POV--- It had been another long day. More trying to remember my past lives and how to control the flow and influence on this life, not that it always worked. Let alone did I have a reminisce every day or today at that. Not that my teacher believed me. He believed I was blocking myself from remembering. Then again, I really missed Mr. Bell, but he couldnโt be my teacher, and I wanted to be treated like any other person. So yeah, I had been enrolled into the local Crysthalian School. *Girl itโs not you, he thinks someone is holding us back.* Nadia finally speaks up after several days of just standing by and watching. *Who does he blame?* I asked as I settled in bed and hope sleep will come

I really shouldnโt get comfortable but looking around the table at everyone, I just want to live in the moment. This right here is what I want. And Iโm hoping to never go back to that hellhole. โHey Zan, you ok?โ Ma asks me as she passes the green beans to me. โYeah, Iโm perfect Ma, just realizing itโs been a year since you took me in and gave me a home.โ I said as I took the green beans from her and placed them aside. Then turning back, I hugged her. โThank you!โ โOh Zan, your welcome.โ Ma choked out. I knew she

---Meridaโs POV--- I was so surprised when the first โCRACKโ and boom lit up the sky. Iโve never seen fireworks, as I was always left home or busy doing something. My former parents always had their reasons, and I think it was to keep me out of view. But here on an island, with a castle in the distance and a beach under my feet, I wasnโt hiding. I was hiding who I was but not physically. Everyone here knew my name and welcomed me with smiles or hugs. Smiling as I watched the fireworks, I was surprised once more when my dad appeared next to me. โSo, is it everything you imagined?โ I could see the โLittle Seaโ part in his eyes, as he smiled down at me. Looking around I was surprised to see the staff had gathered around us and was blocking us from the nobles that were standi

---Sarahโs POV--- The night dragged on as I waited for my chance to run but I didnโt know what had been planned. The king making his appearance almost a half an hour after the ball started or that he ended up picking me as his princess for the night. A total shock and it also meant I had to dance with a few councilors or their sons. My mom kept appearing in my line of sight and telling me to smile. I would have punched that last son in the face, if Ericson hadnโt approached and stole me away. โAre you better now Sarah?โ Ericson whispered in my ear. I tried really hard not to let the shiver run down my spine. But I just couldnโt help but fall for him. Nodding my head as I just knew my voice would cra

---Meridaโs POV--- It was disheartening to hear that Crispin wouldnโt be at the party, but I did understand. Though where I got the ideal of my wanting a dance with him or asking for a raincheck. It was embarrassing especially since Lu and Mi not only heard but saw his reaction. I was so happy that Sarah reacted and pulled him away. โOK tomato lets go, or are you hopping for Crispin to come back and swipe you off your feet?โ Mi asked as he adjusted the sleeves of his shirt. Punching him in the arm, as I walked past, I picked up my shawl and wrapped it around me. โShut up Mi.โ โMeri you canโt blame Mi, your still red in the che

---Sarahโs POV--- Today was the ball and I was really upset. Because of my familyโs standing I had to attend the ball, but my mom promised I could leave after the first dance. What my mom didnโt know was, I was going to skip out during the first dance. No one would notice me or even care, though that meant I would miss the first hour or so of the beach party. Meri did a really good job on the party and put a lot of work to make this year great. The staff were really excited, and I didnโt blame them, as I was excited too. I even had my other outfit hidden downstairs by Lucinda. Though she also was hiding spare clothes for Jenn, Jayla, Cora, and my brother. Except I donโt think my brother is going to be able to leave.&

The following days sucked but I was busy, so I really didnโt have time to think or dwell on anything. I was helping with making decorations and assisting Lucinda in the fine details of the beach party. Then again there was a lot to sort out after the incident with the noble girls. From the clothes that went missing, to the destroyed items, a lot had to be replaced or fixed. Then again, my dad has been even busier, as all the councilors had many questions. Plus, he had to explain why he brought outsiders, mainly me, into the castle. Mr. Bell was around for a few days and even took time to talk with me. ~(*o*)~ ~(couple days ago)~ ~(*o*)~ Walking around the fourth floor of the library, I really took i
