" HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO TOUCH ME AGAIN THIS TIME? "Mia yelled as soon as Jin placed one hand over her shoulder and flipped her gently down. Her entire body was shivering. It was the body's automatic response to her previous experience." Mia! Calm down! I am not here to hurt you! I am not that beast! "His words rang as empty as the hollow of the tree trunk they were in." Mia I am sorry that I am having to do this by force. But I need to get that pendent out of you before heading back to the immortal world! "Mia wanted to take a step back but her back was already leaning against the wood." But... But you were sent flying... "" The pendant mistook me and my intention as belonging to the beast. It took a moment to adjust! ... Mia now I will need you to lay down. Let me start the process already. We don't want to be more delayed than we already are! "Mia had no other option. She had to head back to her son in the earliest. Over powering this being was out of question. Surrendering wa

The entire mer kingdom was gathered in front of the mer castle.It was more happening than their annual festival.The sight of males in their region was rare.Now there were two in front of their very sight.The one missing for several years and the one yet to be coronated." My dear mer-witches! "The queen was at the pedestal addressing her subjects." Today is a very special day! "Her statement was met with loud cheers. " We are again reunited with our males after several decades. It's a miracle in itself to see two of them together. Is it not? "Again loud cheers followed." Would we all not want a share of them! "This however followed with a loud shush. " Why the mum? It's not a crime to want a man in our lives. It should not be that way. Never. "Murmurs followed."Look at all the creatures on land. Mortals and immortals alike. They enjoy happy conjugal relationships while we have to spend our days killing our own husbands. "Another round of murmurs. But this time it was more

" NOOOOOOOO! "Ruby gasped over and over again.The Queen was surrounded my the entire mer-population.Like the pistil of a flower , covered by layers of petals, they were protecting their Queen who was in a trance like state. Immersed in her occult.Ruby watched as the mer- witches dropped dead one by one. Their blood tainting the waves." What on heavens is happening! " But before Roe could get her questions answered, something dark lashed their way.They ducked to void.Lin spied Anjana and the mer-boy." Roe, look over there! "The veil that had kept Anjana hidden all those years were lifted by Mia's touch.Now he was as visible to everyone else like he was to Mia." That's the creature that helped Mia back at the Land of the Lakes! But...what is that beside him? "Anjana did have a strange structure since nobody had ever seen a full grown mer- male apart from the Queens and their inner circles."That's.. That's Crystal's mate! They are tied up... It means they are not on the Queen

" YOU BUNCH OF MORONS!You think you have the power to stop me! "The mer-queen had finally opened her eyes. But it was nothing like her ordinary self. It was thousand folds terrifying.The barrier around her was broken. She aught to have been vulnerable but she became more hostile.Her elite guards were gone. She was all that was left of them." Back off! "She commanded killing a number of mer- witches at one jolt." They all die if you take a step closer! "She was now creating a hostage situation." I am doing all this for you. Can't you understand! It's the only way our population get to live and grow... "" NONSENSE!You are just to engrossed into pleasing your darkness. The way to our future is not by killing our own kind. It's the way Crystal showed us.She was a true queen even after she gave up her throne to save a single life. His life! "Jade pointed towards Anjana. She looked furious." Crystal gave up her life but showed us how we could co-exist. Look at her daughter. He

They were drenched from head to toe as they ran trying to catch the little culprit.It was not raining at the moment but he had called the ocean waters and made it shower on them." Mia get hold of your son. He is becoming too powerful ! "Ruby was the one baby sitting him. He was too fond of her. But he got mad when Xie sneaked in from behind and pulled her under him.He was about to plant a kiss on her lips when the little minion unleashed the shower , soaking them wet.Jade had taken the helm of the mer- world. She happily married Anjana and pronounced him king.Ruby agreed to Xie's marriage proposal. And she came to the land to live as his queen.But she needed to keep going back to the mer- world to revitalise herself. Xie had given up his chance of claiming the throne for this reason and decided to settle near the shore.This way, Ruby never had to miss the waters.Boshu went to live with Roe in the Wolf kingdom. His phobia of wolves had long disappeared. It only came back when R
