The way to the car took a long time. It felt as if they were lost. Meredith's face was buried in Ellis' hair, trying not to look around her. She was slinching a few times when doctors were yelling but everything seemed to be blurry.
When they finally reached the car, Derek helped her in before helping the kids
"Are you good?" Derek asked her
"I'm fine" She gave him a small smile, trying not to look out of the window. She started to fidget with her hands while they were making their way to the dream house.
"Hey" Derek noticed and grabbed her hands "I love you" He whispered
She nodded and whispered "I love you too" back but it was barely loud enough to understand
As Derek was driving on the ferryboat the kids were asking to go out
"Hey, guys. Let's stay in today, so mommy doesn't need to get out" Derek said, knowing Meredith couldn't handle so many people at once. She was close to a breakdown by the cars surrounding them
"I know a game we can play!" Bailey told them "I am going on vacation and I will take an umbrella with me" Bailey told them "Now everyone has to remember it and add an object. Ellie, you're next"
"I am going on vacation and I will take an umbrella and my bear!" Ellis co-operated
They kept playing the game and Meredith clearly calmed down. They kept going till it was time to drive off the ferry. Derek slowly drove off and a car behind them honked at them, making Meredith finch pretty heavy. Derek quickly drove off and parked the car. The kids had no clue what was happening and kept quiet while Derek got out the car and walked to Meredith's side, holding her close against his body

"It's okay, it was nothing. You're okay" He kept whispering in her ears while stroking her hair. He did that until she calmed down and gave a nod to show she was doing better
"Let's go home" Derek suggested and climbed back in the drivers' seat
Derek grabbed her hand and hurried his way towards their house
"I'm gonna grab your wheelchair" He said and got out, grabbing her wheelchair while the kids, except for Ellis got out
"Daddy!" She yelled
"Wait a second, Ellie. I'm gonna help mommy first"
"Nooo" She whined
"Help her first" Meredith smiled as Bailey and Zola were waiting for them
"Okay baby, here you go" Derek said as he helped Ellis out of the car
"I wanna help mommy too" Ellis smiled
"Okay, let's get mommy inside then we can all grab a snack" Derek said and lifted Meredith out of the car and wheeled her inside.
"I'm gonna grab mommy's favourite blanket!" Ellis yelled and ran upstairs to Meredith and Derek's bedroom
Derek placed her on the couch and placed some pillow's behind her back and underneath her legs, making sure she was getting the best care as possible
"Der, I'm fine" She smiled as she leaned back against the pillows
"Mommy, can we cuddle?" Zola asked innocent
"Of course" Meredith smiled and opened her arms while the kids crawled closer
"I'm gonna get your meds" Derek said and walked back to the kitchen, allowing himself to breakdown for a minute
...
"I want spaghetti" Bailey said against Derek
"Then we'll east spaghetti" Derek replied
"Mommy? Can I talk with you?" Ellis asked
"ZoZo, why don't you help Bailey and your dad in the kitchen?" Meredith said and Zola walked to the kitchen. "What's up baby?" She asked Ellis

"You remember that I told you about Sophie? The girl that pushed me?" Ellis told her, not looking into her mother's eyes
"Yes, did it happen again?" Meredith asked with a lot of concern
"A few times.." Ellis sighed
"Why didn't you tell us?" Meredith asked, feeling guilty for not knowing sooner
"You were in the hospital and daddy stayed with you" The little girl quietly replied
"I'm sorry, baby. What about we tell daddy tonight and we call your teacher?" Meredith suggested but the little girl shrugged
"I don't know" She said as she shook her head
"We have to tell your teacher, Ellie" Meredith said as she gently rubbed the little girl's arm
"Can we watch a movie tonight? Because I really missed you" Ellis said as a tear escaped her eyes
"Of course, Ellie Belle" Meredith smiled and hugged the girl closer
The two fell asleep on the couch while Derek, Zola and Bailey were making dinner
"When can we go to the playground?" Bailey asked Derek
"We can go soon if you want" Derek said
"Will mommy come too?" Zola asked
"No, Zo. Mommy won't be able to for a while but you guys can play in the garden and mommy and I will watch you" Derek replied, knowing Meredith would react bad to the amount of people on the playground
"Okay.." Zola sighed
"Dinner is almost ready, shall we go put the plates on the table?" Derek asked Zola and she nodded
"I'm gonna get mommy!" Bailey suggested
"Wait a minute, bud. I'm gonna need to help mommy. She won't make it by herself" Derek said
Bailey nodded and waited impatiently by the doorway until Derek grabbed his hand to go wake up Meredith together
"Mommy" Bailey whispered but so far only Ellis woke up
"Mommy?" She muttered
"We need to wake mommy" Bailey told Ellis
They gently kissed Meredith's cheeks before she woke up
"W-What?" She stuttered
"Shh, Mer. Dinner's ready. i'm gonna help you up" Derek whispered as he placed a kiss on top of Meredith's head
"Hmm.. thanks" She whispered as she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes
"Come on mommy! I'm hungry" Bailey yelled as he run towards the kitchen

Maou Shoujo Magical Chaos
Volumes 1 to 7 are available on Amazon! The books are going onto a different track, so don't miss the new adventures of Chaos! Death and Reincarnation. Kuroe Makoto, the tomboyish ace of her high school track and field club, never spared a thought for these things before. However, when she falls asleep in her Tokyo home after an exhausting marathon and wakes up in a fantasy world, those concepts become her reality. And unlike in the common light novel setting, she isn't reincarnated as the naturally good-looking and talented human hero who gathers a harem effortlessly. In fact, she isn't reincarnated as a human at all. She is reborn as 'Chaos', child of the demon queen and heir to a kingdom at war with humanity. Maou Shoujo Magical Chaos puts the Japanese high school girl in a tentacle monster, in this strange tale of a sound human mind possessing a horrifying creature's body. Join Chaos on her oftentimes humorous but also perilous journey through a world of sword and sorcery, as she discovers a newfound appetite for life, terror, and demi-human girls. This story features just yuri, as the female protagonist only has interest in other females. Current Release Schedule: One to two chapters every week. Expect an announcement if I can't keep to that. Pledge of Completion: With the release of the ebook on Amazon, I pledge that this series will never be dropped, and see completion. Standalone spin-off featuring Senka: Red Mantis and Avenger Doll Cover art by Peperon.

The story of Larin the Builder in the aftermath of Awakening This short story is the epilogue of Awakening, the first book of the Chronicles of Mother's Gate series. This epilogue is a great follow-up to the novel, a bonus story that adds extra layers between books without being necessary to the main storyline.Waking Up follows the story of Larin, who is alive but unconscious after her ordeal in the Nine Hells. She awakens in A'lara City a few days later and recuperates under the steadfast care of her repentant friend Jorn.As she reacclimates to her waking state, Larin struggles with her gruesome memories of the Hells and her decision to conceal them from Jorn. This story answers the question, Is Larin all right? with a resounding yes, and some storms on the horizon.It also raises the question, What happened to her down there? and includes an excerpt from the sister story Falling Down, about Larin's ordeal in the Nine Hells. Praise for Waking Up and Falling Down: Loved it. The difference between the two stories is great!The difference between Waking Up and Falling Down is astounding. So much light and love in the first story. You feel safe reading it. Healing.The second, so much darkness, pain and despair. The choice of vocabulary is awesome and makes an impact.And this set of short stories ties the two books together so well.-- Dana V. of Texas ★★★★★
8 97Medieval Terror
[Trickle! Trickle!] Blood… Pure unfiltered blood. Thick wetness of inhumane variety was drowning the contours of my defiled countenance with crimson slick. My warrior’s mien was brutally decorated with the vile viscera and entrails of the dead. Scattered all around me was a large pile of corpses floating in the bloodthirsty puddle of the afterlife. Accompanying my rest within this detestable domain was a rapacious array of lord Beelzebub’s kin. A swarm of black motile embodiment capable of aerial drifts made my bloody appearance barely visible. [Buzz! Buzz!] I was dead yet living, I could travel between the broken realms of existence and meddle with the vengeful souls. Such was possible by virtue of my life that had succumbed to the Lure of Enigma. The bizarre events that unfolded which brought me to this destitute phase of utter dysphoria was a mixture of tales that will leave a distasteful flavour of doleful buds on your tongue. If you wish to know more about my apocalyptic journey then feel free to turn the pages of my undying path. However, I must warn you, inquisitive readers. My legendary tale might cause your weak constitution to become cripple, hence read at your own peril.
