A lot of information was learned in this chapter! Darcey did Fleur an injustice (as she did her mother before her) by not training her to be a better witch. Darcey was deeply affected by her daughter's death, but that doesn't excuse her for being a lousy parent. That being said, Fleur threw one hell of a temper tantrum, worthy of any 15 year old! Darcey and Zain's mom certainly like to keep info from their children. And finally, just like @drsawzall I wonder who "she" is.
While that is a possibility, he could have just made an assumption that a traveling cowboy isn't the type to put money in the bank. Or he could have been watching them the entire time.
I loved this "settling in" chapter. Toby is thriving as much as his new plants and bugs. His joy has spread to the rest of the family. As for Deirdre and Jasper, they are getting prepared but not obsessing over the worst case scenario.
I believe that @astone2292 is getting ready to publish his sequel to Cernunnos. Of course you need to read the original first, which I highly recommend.
I noticed the similarity between your own name and Aerohn. Is there something your not telling us? Are you really of this world? This could explain a lot!
I see no problems with Gracie running her restaurant the way she wants, it worked for the "Soup Nazi"! Although she may want to upgrade her food. Speaking of food, pineapple does not belong on the same crust as Italian flavored tomato sauce! Would you put pineapple in your spaghetti???? I think I'll just eat some of Gracie's plastic food.
Poor Micco, he's so in his own head he's not seeing the whole picture. He has several people who care deeply about him, but he won't let them in. On the flip side, we have new info! Sam was broke and he was secretly in love with Micco.
Great point, I didn't think of the possibility of Val going with him but appearing as a human! Makes me wonder if his friend and his family (Parallax's caretakers) are not human in this world. Is Parallax even a cat in this world?
As much as I enjoyed this very funny story, I had as much fun reading the comments! You really got people riled up! I can see your growth as a writer, but this has some fantastic moments.
I don't think he will, at least not permanently. I do hope he gets to see his friend again. He also needs to have some words with a certain troublesome cat!
Will Asa get a wolf? Ben got a wolf and kept his other gift. Will Elijah get a wolf? We could see a light shifter wolf and an anything shifter wolf.
FIRST ON FOUR!!!!!!!!!
Good riddance to bad rubbish! I'm sorry Toby will be sad, but he will be better off without her influence. I think she'll be better as a long distance mom. I like David, he is yet another great addition to their new family unit.
I look forward to the reunion with our old friends. I'm hoping the twins will be first on the list. Also looking forward to a conversation between Asa and Elijah, maybe another dearly departed elemental shifter's name will come up.
Now that he has the star, he needs to escape and then what? What is he going to do with the star? Will a portal just open? Does he have to go back to his starting point? The thief will try to get it back.
