《Finding them》Chapter 11
Advertisement
Once the twins were asleep Daniel turned to his sons. "Right, now they are asleep we can talk more. Darcy especially doesn't like loud noises, when she is touched without knowledge she pretends to pass out as you saw. This is due to the abuse she suffered her entire life. Dakota protected his sister a lot. He is very protective of her and observes everything. They haven't had much exposure to food and neither like wearing shoes. The only thing we can keep on there feet are these slippers. We will be booking an appointment to have shoes properly fitted. I am also taking time off from work to stay with them and Mitchell will be stepping into my roll" Daniel told his sons. "What do you mean abuse?" Asked Eddie. "It seems they have been abused most of there lives and don't trust people. We don't know what happened all we know is how they react. When they build trust with you, they seek comfort from you. Dakota is always on high alert but has relaxed a little with us now" Daniel explained.
The more that Daniel and Mitchell explained to the others the more upset they became. How could someone harm a child like that? As they discussed things that needed to change in the house Jamie's phone rang. "Oh shit, dad I forgot to tell you Nan and Pops called and they are calling again" Jamie rushed out before answering his phone. "Hiya" Jamie said into the phone. "Don't you Hiya me Jamie, you were suppose to get your father to call me. Is he back from his emergency trip which you refuse to tell me about?" Was heard coming through the phone. "I'm good Nan thanks for asking. I'll put dad on the phone for you" Jamie rushed out handing the phone to his father earning him a glare.

"Hi mum" Daniel spoke calmly to his mother. "Don't hi mum me. What the hell Daniel? What is this about an emergency trip which your son refuse to tell me about" his mother fumed out. "Mum quiet down. I got a call last week informing me that I was there father of ..." Daniel started. "What you have another child? You didn't think to tell me?" His mother screeched. "Mum you will wake them up. I was going to tell you, we just got home and they are sleeping right now" Daniel replied calmly. "They? What do you mean they?" His mother asked. "Twins mum and they are three. Dakota and Darcy are there names" Daniel replied. "Charles get here now. We have more grand babies to spoil" his mother screeched. "What are you carrying on about Angie?" Daniel's father called back. "Our son went to pick up his children which he didn't tell us about. They are three, three Charles. We have missed out on three years of those babies lives" his mother fumed out.
"Hello" Daniel's father took the phone. He had no idea what his wife was sprouting out about. "Dad, I just got back from my trip. I had to pick up the twins. I had no idea I had fathered them until I got a call last week. We only just got home today and they are sleeping" Daniel explained. "Right and they are three? Well your mother is booking tickets we will be there at the end of the week. God I hope she has calmed down by then otherwise she will whoop your arse for keeping this from her" his father told him. "Dad that's not a good idea. Darcy and Dakota were in foster care and it seems they were abused" Daniel tried to explain. "Your mother won't listen. Sorry Daniel best prepare them for the visit. I will try to calm her down and explain to her but you know how she is. Say hello to the boys for me and we will see you Friday" Daniel's father said before hanging up. Daniel looked at his sons, "they will be here Friday and mum is fuming" Daniel told his older boys earning nods from them all.

Daniel and Mitchell dozed off on the couches as they had barely slept on the flight home either. Darcy was the first to wake and looked around. Hunter saw her awake and waved to her. She pulled Ellie in front of her eyes. He smiled at her "hey sweetheart" Hunter said. Jamie and Eddie had gone to do other things because they didn't want to sit and wait for the twins to wake up. Darcy looked around again seeing Dakota sleeping next to her and Daniel with his eyes closed and Mitchell who was also sleeping. Darcy began to panic, someone was always suppose to stay awake so no one could hurt her or Dakota. "Hey sweetheart it's ok, I am here. You are safe and I won't let anyone hurt you ok?" Hunter told her softly. Darcy nodded her head and smiled at Hunter. She likes his hair and wanted to touch it so lifted her arms up to him.
Hunter quietly walked over to Darcy and put his hands out for her. Darcy touched his hands and then pulled away watching Hunter in case he reacted to her touch. When Hunter didn't move she touched his hand again and watched his face. Hunter stood still and just smiled at her, he could see she was cautious but also curious and he didn't want to scare her at all. Darcy tugged on Hunters hand so he crouched down so he was eye level with Darcy. Darcy smiled at Hunter and reached for his hair. Hunter leant forward which allowed Darcy to reach his hair. Darcy ran her hands through his long curly hair "soft" Darcy whispered and smiled. "Yeh it's soft" Hunter replied watching her closely. Darcy gently pulled his hair and ran it over her face before smelling Hunter's hair. "Pretty" Darcy whispered and continued to run his hair over her face. Dakota was awake and watching his sister and Hunter closely, he was making sure he wouldn't hurt Darcy. "Kota wook, pretty, soft" Darcy stated, she knew when her brother woke up, it's was a sixth sense they both had. Hunter looked at Dakota who was watching him closely and smiled "I won't hurt either of you. It's my job to protect both of you" Hunter told Dakota who gave a small nod of his head in acknowledgment. "Would you like to come play? Or maybe eat something?" Hunter asked them both earning a nod from Darcy, she wanted to play with her cups again.

Isekai'd slave
Edward, a regular guy, is transported to another world at the wrong time and place. Slowly, he adapts, paves his way, and faces whatever misfortune awaits. This is my first work. I'm mostly messing around with different themes/characters. The first few chapters are pretty inconsistent, containing most of the rough experimentation, but if you can get past them - I'm sure you'll have a much nicer time. Do not expect anything of notable quality; however, any advice/criticism/suggestions are greatly appreciated. The story won't involve any dark themes, so no excessive violence, rape, etc. Discord

The Arcane Prince
Book 1 is complete and fully posted here on RoyalRoad. The story is on break as I work on Book 2, which will be posted once I have finished writing it. Max is a twelve-year-old boy from the slums who dreams of seeing the world, learning magic, and adventure. On the same day that Max learns his first spell, he meets Colt, a noble-born lad on his own path to power. Colt is kind. Oblivious to the world, but kind. By his grace, Max begins to learn under Colt's instructor, even hunting monsters in the forests to the north. Max is talented and grows in power quickly, but as he prepares for the first of his adventures, the kingdom faces the greatest threat in centuries. Posting Schedule: Every 3 days until the end of Book 1 (Chapter 45). IMPORTANT NOTES: 1) This is a story about an OP boy doing OP boy things. By the end of Book 1, there will be few fights that he struggles with, and he will rarely, if ever, find his life in peril. 2) This is a slice-of-life and adventure story, which means that there will be periods of chapters without any action or conflict, but also periods of chapters with battles and exploration/adventure (the latter mostly being Book 2+). 3) There will be NO petty squabbles or conflicts going on in this story, because it is meant to be a fun one, not a high-tension, drama-filled story. So it will NOT be that. If you want lots of action or lots of conflict, then find another story to read because this isn't it. 4) There will never be an overarching evil/villain/conflict to deal with in this story past Book 1. Ever. 5) Book 1 is entirely written and can be considered a standalone story on its own. Right now, the story may last 2-3 books, or it may last 7-10 books. It is guaranteed to make it through Book 2 or 3, and if I decide to go with the bigger journey I have planned after that, then it will be longer. There will be a several-month wait between Book 1 and Book 2. 6) The story contains the sexual content tag, but it will not contain any unless Max and his future boyfriend reach 18+ years of age in-story. If I decide to bring the story to a conclusion with Book 2 or 3, or they never reach that age in the full story for the long journey, then I will remove the tag. 7) There are currently absolutely no plans to make this story into a harem if I write the extended story. If I write the extended story and decide at some point to make it one, then I will add the appropriate tag and inform readers of this decision. However, there are currently zero plans to make it one. 8) This story takes place in its own story universe, with its own rules. Please keep that in mind when reading it and other stories.
