"Hey!" Meredith heard Addison came in when she was trying to feed Bella.
"Hi" Meredith smiled
"How is my goddaughter doing?" Addison gave her a warm smile back
"She didn't want to eat earlier with Derek but for now.. okay" Meredith said as Bella slowly drunk bits of her bottle before starting to refuse again
"Hey, Bel. You need to drink" Addison said as she joined Meredith
"I want her home, Addi" Meredith sighed
"I know, Mer.. we'll do another CT this afternoon. Her neuro exams seem to be promising so far. She reacts on sounds and light, she moves her limbs, not as much as we want but she's doing it" Addison smiled
"I'm so proud of her" Meredith said proud
"She looks so much like you, Mer!"
"Derek says that too" Meredith giggled
"What do I say?" Derek asked as he and Mark came in
"That Bel looks like Mer" Addison repeated
"She does!" Mark confirmed
"Did anyone talk to mom or dad?" Meredith asked
"Yeah, they'll come by later today" Derek said before he kissed Meredith and gave Bella a kiss on her forehead
...
"Derek!" Carolyn said as she and Christopher walked into the hospital all the way up to the NICU where they met Derek
"Hi, mom, dad!" Derek exclaimed before pulling them into a hug
"Where's our granddaughter?" Christopher asked proud
"Mer is trying to feed her again.. is it okay to wait a bit?" Derek asked
"Of course, dear. How's the feeding going?" Carolyn asked as they slowly made their way over to the window to check on Bella and Meredith
"When Mer feeds her she usually eats a bit more but still the same.. she's not eating enough.. She just came back from CT and her team will discuss what's best for her" He said quiet

"She'll be okay, no matter what! Your mother and I read a lot about BPD the past week. Addison gave us some interesting books about it. We want to make sure we know what's happening with our little girl" Christopher said
"Thanks" Derek said with a small smile "She's so small" He whispered
"I'm so excited.. first time holding her" Carolyn said as she kept looking at Bella who started to refuse the bottle again
"Want to go in now?" Derek asked
Both his parents nodded happily. The three made their way into the NICU and went to the corner Bella was in.
"Well, Bel.. Meet your grandparents" Meredith said as she handed the baby to Carolyn
After a couple of minutes, Carolyn gave the baby to Christopher who immediately started talking to Bella
"Hey, Bella. Nice to meet you" He whispered "I'm so happy to finally meet you"
Derek smiled as he took a seat next to Meredith, holding her close as they were watching their family.
They all started talking and Derek took Bella back in his arms when she started wheezing. He placed her against his chest and carefully rubbed circles on her back as Meredith whispered to Bella "Hey baby girl.. shht, deep breaths, you're fine"
"Should I call a nurse?" Christopher said, slightly panicking
"Dad, she's okay" Meredith said "This is.. normal.. She'll be fine in a couple of minutes and if not we'll give her some more oxygen" Meredith said as she grabbed her dad's hand
"I'm sorry" He apologized
"We understand, dad" Derek said as he gave him a small smile before turning his attention back to Bella
"She's beautiful, guys" Carolyn smiled
"Her last neuro exams looked good, her CT scan earlier looked promising.. I hope we can bring her home at the end of the week but she'll need to pass the carseat exam first" Derek smiled as he kept looking at his daughter who calmed down again and almost fell asleep while he held her close

"Dr and Dr Shepherd. Do you wanna bath Bella?" A nurse asked as she walked in
"Yes, please" Derek said as he smiled
"We'll go see Addison and Mark while you take care of your daughter. Maybe we can meet for dinner?" Carolyn suggested
"Sounds great, mom! Thank you!" Meredith said as the four of them stood up to say goodbye. Meredith and Derek took off to bathe their daughter while Carolyn and Christopher left the room before turning one final time to see Meredith and Derek took off with Bella. Finally having the family they begged for
...
"Hey, Bel. You were so brave" Meredith coeed as she carefully dressed Bella
"Should we try and feed her again?" Derek asked
"That would be best!" Meredith said before Derek went to the nurses and asked them for a new bottle as Meredith finished up dressing Bella before making her way to the chair next to Bella's bed
"Derek?" Meredith whispered once Bella started drinking again
"What's wrong, Mer?" Derek asked
"I think I'll stay home for a while when she gets released.. Webber said it was okay and I could keep my spot as long as I come in once a week for a shift"
"Of course, Mer. We can take turns" He smiled
"And dad asked me to explain everything.. they want to help us too and Addi and Mark too and.. Derek, we'll be fine and Bel is doing such a great job" Meredith smiled widely
"She is and we'll always be fine, Mer. We're Meredith and Derek" He said before kissing her as Bella started whimpering
"I'm sorry Bel, mommy is all yours again" He laughed
"Meredith? Derek?" Arizona's voice was heard as she entered the room
"Bella's results look good. We think she might be able to go home at the end of the week or in the beginning or next week as long as she passes the carseat test and if her weight doesn't drop again and we'll discuss a plan for her meals. For now we don't want to give her a feeding tube because spreading the amount of food seems to work for now. We'll see how that works out once you're home because you can't wake up every two hours to feed her" Arizona said "But guys, this is good news. She'll be home soon"
"Finally" Meredith sighed as she smiled
"Finally" Derek echoed

The Devil King
This story is a Frame Story (story within a story), and as such will contain two summaries to denote both. A man was summoned from his home world to another to serve as a Hero for the desperate Human race. Where, in between the worlds, he is tortured whist obtaining specialised abilities and a Class. However, just as he enters this new world, he is slain by way of dragon fire. Afterwards, his soul is picked up by a Goddess called Azazel and strikes a bargain with her. For a new life upon her world, he will give her entertainment. Unbeknownst to himself, she has more plans for him than simple “entertainment”. Ah, but the Universe has its own plans for the man who was summoned. Be it for good or for ill, the worlds will note the rise of something more. ***** Sarah, the Goddess of Iridescent Colours, is the Goddess Queen of the Terran Pantheon after marrying a being called the Ageless who is the God King of said Pantheon. However, after many a century of being together, and giving birth to their only child, she has come to suspect her husband of breaking the oldest laws set aside within the Universe. Tampering or re-writing a being's Story. Of which contains a being's everything; from birth to death, everything is written within their Story. Tampering with such books would not only mark the being, but cause the Librarians who take care of such items to fly into a rage and slay the perpetrator. However, with the Ageless being the fifth strongest being within the Universe, she doubts if she could find a Librarian strong enough to slay her husband for the crimes he has committed. How did she come to suspect him? Her own story contains many pages which were re-written, and the one who has access to it is both herself and her husband. Therefore, she searches for answers, and has been given the story titled The Devil King in order to find that which she desires. Even if the cost is to read the whole book before she could act fully.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
