I stared daggers at the three of them. As they saw me staring at them, they knew they were in for it and all three took off running. What scared them the most, was the fact I didn’t bother to move or chase after them. I knew they had to get on the jet where they had no where to run to. They stopped running and looked back at me. Their laughing stopped as they thought the same thing I was thinking. I just smiled at them. ‘Thank you guys for the great gift” I said sarcastically. Everyone looked at us like they were lost as to what was going on about the gift, so then I had to clue them in on what had happened and the way I found out about the pet shop to begin with. After that everyone was laughing and telling the guys they better not fall asleep anytime soon.
“So what do you want to do with this little fellow” my mother asked holding the hermit crab in her hands. “Ummm send it back to the abyss where it came from” I suggested. “Dream, that’s not nice” she scolded holding that thing closer to her. “I can’t
help it, thar thing is scary looking. And look at what it did to Gus” I said. “But tell you what, if you want him, he is all yours. I don’t want to touch it.” I told her with my face scrunched up in disgust. I couldn’t help it. They looked like baby sea monsters. There was nothing cute about it. I didn’t see the fascination with them. My mother laughed at me as she carefully placed it in the aquarium, this time making certain the lid was on tight.
“Luna Penelope, there is an entire big box of things for it. A huge aquarium and all accessories the place had” Brian said still trying not to laugh at what they had done to me. Aerie smacked him “She is going to kill you three and I can’t blame her” she told him. He stopped laughing immediately. “I’m sorry Dream, I had no idea of what had happened. I never would have helped them if I had known” Aerie said as she waked over to me. “Thanks, but you do know your mate has payback coming right?” I asked her whispering. “Oh, I know and I will help” she told me with a mischievous grim on her face. “I do believe that we are going to be the best of friends” I told her as the both of us laughed.
The jet was finally finished loading as we all boarded the jet to return back home. My parents sat in front of Nathan and I to discuss everything that needed to be done for me to take the throne. “And of course there is the wedding that we must do first” my mother announced. Nathan and I both suddenly stared at her. “WHAT?”the both of us asked at the same time. “Well after we talked with the elders about the best way to do everything, they want the two of you actually married, not just the mate ceremony. That way it will be easier. After you are crowned then all you will have to do is announce him as your king and then his coronation will be right after. All done the same day instead of one day for your coronation, one day for the wedding, then the announcement and finally his coronation. Basically you will have everything done the day of you taking the throne instead of dragging it out.” She explained. Then chrissy spoke up “Don’t wor Dream and Nathan. Everything is all taken care of. All Dream will have to do is find her gown. And there is a dress boutique at the palace where the wedding will be.” Chrissy explained. “Huh?” both of us asked again. Mine and Nathan’s fathers just shook their heads and started talking between themselves. “Yes Dream. You will be having a royal wedding for the entire kingdom to witness. But like Chrissy said everything is already set and taken care of.” My mother said again. We knew that we would be getting married, but we didn’t know it was going to happen like this.. “Just let them have their fun Dream. It has to happen either way. We knew that” Nathan linked me easing my stress a little. “OK. As long as that is all I have to do then I am OK with whatever.” I told them giving in. “So when is the wedding,” I asked her. “Tomorrow” she answered. I nearly choked on my drink and Nathan started laughing.
