Guardian Shelliot
I shifted in the vehicle away from Guardian Torus. My voice was low as a whisper. "What? What do you mean Head Guard Aquant is here? Are you sure it's him?"
Head Guard Aquant hated humans. He thought they were fragile beings who were too weak and heartless. Not to mention the views he had about Marvelon. There was no way he would come to land. Not now anyway, not when the Kingdom was in danger. He was never one to ignore his duties."How should I know?" Marvelon whisper-yelled. "The freaking man is sitting on my couch with two guards who look like they are about to kill somebody. It doesn't even look like he likes me or my household."My heart skipped a beat.Oh, the sea gods, I hoped he didn't say anything to offend him. Aquant already had an opinion of Marvelon. The King was not our ideal leader but he was trying. Aquant would never see it like that."Okay," I shielded my mouth with my hand. "I'll get there as soon as possibleRelated chapters

MarvelonThe muscles in my forehead tightened at the sight of Little Miss Mermaid and Mia. They were on the floor adjacent to Shelly's room."What are they doing?" Alex whispered to me. "Is that popcorn?"It was. They were eating popcorn and chatting. The guards Shelly's boyfriend came with stood by the door like statues. They stared straight ahead into the opposite wall."What are we doing?" Alex asked, slipping in the middle of the girls."We are watching the show," Mia answered, crunching on popcorn.My gaze went in the direction hers was in. A bright glow shone from the creaks of Shelly's room door."What's that light?" I queried.The bulb was not so bright."It's the glow of their bodies," Little Miss Mermaid's mesmerizing sigh cocooned us.My eyebrows dipped lower in my face. "Their bodies.""Uh-huh," the

"Are you okay?" Aquant settled beside me on the seat overlooking the ocean.I left the question to float around us. Something happened to Marvelon. A weird, unsatisfactory yet sadden emotion emitted from him. I couldn't tell if it was the cause of those dreams he often had. The King was a private person. He would never tell me if I asked. Patience was something I had to learn by being his Guardian.He has been sitting down by the beach for the past two hours. Princess Aqualia and Alexander joined him half an hour ago. It was nice how close they all became. Especially him and the princess. Their relationship has developed so much. I could remember how much they couldn't stand each other.Based on what Head Healer Shin said, I didn't want them to get this close. But Princess Aqua gave me a command. I was not to interfere with the process. She was sure Princess Aqua was not the next Sea Witch Queen. Something about the way she said it revealed that she

Thirty mermen and mermaids. Twenty-eight of those men were ordered to patrol the grounds and the house. The remaining four couldn't leave my side. At night, they stayed outside my door. The security system in my house was adjusted and operated by guards I now owned. Something Soph planned. As it turned out, I now owned a special merfolk security task team. They were responsible for the surveillance of my house and the community.I would have thought that was badass if the team didn't have to report to me every Friday. An entire day wasted in a room with a bunch of guards talking about defending people. That task force consisted of twelve mermen and mermaids. If that wasn't enough, I had the Royal Guards to deal with.When Shelly mentioned Royal Guards, I thought it was two or three mermen. Then she returned with thirty freaking men. I couldn't turn without seeing some fucking strange men patrolling my house with an earpiece. My happiest moments were spent in my

Formal attire.I hated Mitch and hated this stupid tuxedo. Every time I stared at or fixed my blue tie, it reminded me of Soph and everything else sucked more. Alex loved dressing up. He rocked the shimmering red tuxedo. His hair was gelled back and tied in a man bun 'mafia style'. That was the exact term he used to describe it."Damn, I look good," he praised himself. "I would date me right now."The mermaid was not lying when she said she went all out. Her purchases were stellar. They fit us perfectly. I was impressed.I stared at the standing mirror in my blue tuxedo. It reminded me of something Soph would buy. I guess she did teach the mermaid well."We should take pictures," the mermaid crowed. "The ones we could look at in the communication device and books."There was no other way to view pictures. Still, I didn't burst her bubble.She waltzed beside Alex in front of the other mirror. The red dress s

"What did you just say?" Mitch choked out. The misbelief was punctuated in his tone.The man swallowed aloud. "Sir, the King is de—""Shut up!" Mitch jumped to his feet. "Just shut up!" His voice echoed in the room.The night was done. News like this would tear any evening apart. I hated the dude but this had to hurt.Mitch backed away from the table. He never said another word but stormed from the room."Prince Mitchalus!" The Torus guy shouted but Mitch was long gone.The rest of us remained seated, trying to process how the night ended up this way.The Torus dude cleared his throat. "Thanks for delivering the message to us. Get your men and go get cleaned up. There is enough food here to share. You can have some if you guys are hungry."The informant answered right away. "Yes, Sir. Thank you.""Okay, you are dismissed."The informant exited the room with his men and
The Hidden King Aqualia
I counted my treks to Prince Mitchalus's chambers. He left in a low spirit which meant he was still upset. We needed to talk but not when he was upset. One never saw reasoning when they were not in their mind. The situation could turn out worse than it already was.I sighed.I didn't have a choice either. He was feeling down and maybe lonely. His brother not showing signs of grieving angered him. So, now he was left to grieve by himself. My feelings once I left my Kingdom were different from what he was feeling now. Though I tried my best not to think bad thoughts about what was happening at home, sometimes it saddened me not to be there.With this situation, there was a guarantee that his home would never be the same when he returned. I didn't know how to treat such a tender situation. Not with Prince Mitchalus.I paused in front of his bedroom door. The two guards there looked at me with suspicion. After what went down the last time, the

Now that everyone was gone to do their own thing, I expected Shelly to evacuate the office, and tell us she was ready. To my dismay, she was still in there with the Torus dude. I swore this woman didn't know when to quit.Blowing out my cheeks, I attempted to enter the office but stopped at the ajar door. Shelly and Torus were having their alone time and I didn't want to be interrupted. It wouldn't hurt to hear them out. After all, Shelly was an annoying yet tender person. On most days.Torus continued to assault the liquor. One glass after the other without breaks. "What are you still doing here? The show is over, you can go."That was what I was thinking too, dude. This was never our place to stay and be drawn into these people's family drama. Their secrets were theirs to keep."You lost a father too, Guardian Torus," Shelly pointed out. "You don't have to be strong. You are allowed to be angry or sad."Oh, Shelly, why couldn'
The Hidden King Aqualia
A suit of clothes was laid on the bed when I exited the bathroom. I hauled on the pants and pulled on the blouse. Prince Mitchalus woke earlier and left the room. He was still going through his grieving process. I wanted him to have all the time he needed. Thought it would be wise to freshen up before I left the manor. King Marvelon and the others left in the night. I told them I would join them during the day.The bedroom door opened and Prince Mitchalus entered the room. He slipped on a smile at the sight of me."Morning," he chirped, embracing me from behind."Morning." I relaxed in his arms as he rested his forehead on my shoulder.He raised with, "We should get breakfast," then hauled me with him to the dining area.Princess Fesel and Guardian Torus… or was it Prince Torus now? Whatever the title he held, he was still Torus. Right, he and cousin dearest were already at the breakfast table, eating."Morning
