Castaway Chapter Fourteen - Haley's Growing Up So Fast

Brian takes Haley exploring on the island and helps her learn new things.

Haley's with her grandma and this leaves time for Megan and Brian to spend time alone.

Jasmin has her birthday and then ages up.

Jasmin loves her little granddaughter. 

"Oh how grandma loves you!" Jasmin tells Haley as she carries her to the hut.

Kevin has his birthday. With sparkles Kevin spins around and then ages up.

Kevin and Brian discuss their plans for the next day.

Before Kevin and Brian head out, Brian takes Haley to Jasmin so she can babysit while they are out hunting.

Everyone gathers for dinner at the main hut.

Then after dinner, Jasmin takes Haley to play. Jasmin heads down the hill to meet with Kevin and take Haley swimming.

"I worry about Haley growing up by herself. We got lucky with Brian joining our family. But I don't want her to grow up and spend the rest of her life alone." Jasmin tells Kevin. 

"I know but there's nothing we can do but try to make her happy." Kevin replies.

It's Haley's birthday and shes blows out her candles with grandma's help.

With sparkles, Haley spins around and changes into a kid.

Haley has grown into a cute little kid. With diapers and baby food behind her, she's ready to join her parents and grandparents when they go out in the mornings.

Jasmin teaches Haley how to play the game they play all the time. "Ok Haley, toss the stick and try to  knock over as many wood markers as you can in a row." Jasmin tells Haley.

Haley tosses and misses. She keeps trying and misses again.

"Oh Grandma, you always beat me." Haley says to her grandma as she grabs her face in defeat.

Haley seems happy and content on the island with her family.

Little James - Chapter Twenty One

Kristen and William throw a celebration for James. They invite many of their closest friends to celebrate his first birthday.

As James ages up to a toddler, it is apparent to all that he truly has Kristen's curse. His eyes have turned more of a red color, and his skin has a soft pale glow.

After James's nap, Kristen visits him in his nursery. When she enters his nursery, James waddles over to her. "How's my boy?" Kristen asks James. "Good, mommy!" James tells his mommy with a small voice.

"You are good with James. I am pleased with how you have served me over the years. You are a close and loyal servant and friend." Kristen tells her lady. "Thank you, my queen." the lady replies.

"I need a sip. Is it alright, my dear lady?" Kristen asks. The lady rolls up her sleeve and holds out her wrist. Kristen carefully takes as little as possible. When she finishes, she hands her a silk cloth to wipe the blood from her already healing wrist. Kristen tries to take turns with as many of her servants as possible, so no one will suffer or grow too weak.

"Mommy's going to get you!" Kristen tells James as she tickles him. He laughs over and over.

Little James bites into his teddy bear like Kristen did to her lady earlier that day. He rips through, tearing a hole through the bear's neck.

Lara comes to the nursery to love on James like she often does. She swoops him up off the floor and cuddles him into her arms.

Without warning, James bites into her neck and tears through her skin, creating a large wound. Lara bleeds heavily. James plays with and drinks her blood that has spilled onto the floor.

James tries to make Lara laugh by tickling her, but she lies limp on the floor. "Wady Lara, play with me."

One of the ladies walked in and discovered Lara lying on the floor, bleeding.  She quickly covered her wound to keep it from bleeding out more. They summon the royal physician to see if they can save Lara. "You might have got to her in time, but I can't be sure. She's lost a lot of blood and is very weak. If she makes it through the next few days, there will be hope." the physician tells Kristen. "What have I done! I should have been more careful! I shouldn't have fed in front of him. I blame myself." Kristen tells the doctor. "Keep me updated with her progress."

Kristen goes to James and picks him up. "Mommy has something to tell you. You can't bite people, no matter the temptation. You can make them die if you bite too deep or make them bleed too much." she explains to him. "I didn't mean to hurt Wady Lara, mommy. Will she be ok?" James whispers."I hope so," Kristen replies. She gets him ready for bed and places him in his crib for the night.

James finally fell asleep, and everyone had turned in for the day. From the shadows, a figure appears at his crib. She peers in and looks at James as he sleeps.

She places a toy in his crib, then turns around and walks away. She disappears into the darkness without a noise.

James wakes up and cries out for his nanny.

She comes in, lifts him out of his crib, and then places him in his high chair.

He eats the breakfast that they have prepared especially for him. He digs in and makes quite a mess.

Kristen arrives to see James after his breakfast and quickly notices the familiar toy in his crib. She's infuriated and goes into a rage. She's then overcome with fear.

Kristen hits the ground with a thud. Her lady was playing on the floor with James when Kristen fell. The lady jumps up to see if Kristen is alright. "My Queen, are you alright," the lady asks as she shakes Kristen. Kristen comes to her senses and slowly gets up off the floor. 

"Is this some kind of sick joke!? Did you put this toy in his crib?" Kristen yells at her. "No, my queen! I have never seen this toy before." the lady quickly replies with fear.

Kristen picks up the toy and looks at it carefully. "It looks just like the one she had growing up. Maybe it's similar to the one I had when I was a captive. Maybe I'm jumping to conclusions," Kristen says more to convince herself than anything else.

Kristen picks up James and hugs him tight. "I will not let anything ever happen to you," Kristen whispers in his ear.

Kristen tells William what happened in the nursery and about the stuffed animal she found. "I need everyone to search the castle and the grounds. I need to know that my baby is safe!" Kristen tells William. "I will get the men together, and we will make sure nothing happens to James," William replied and left to fetch the others.

William and the others search the castle and the entire kingdom's grounds. They don't find anything peculiar.

Throughout the day, many were assigned to walk the castle corridors to make sure no one got close to James.

"We searched everywhere. The whole castle has been searched and the grounds. We have many walking the corridors to keep a check." William tells Kristen to reassure her. "I would be lost without you," she replies with a sigh.

Kristen and William climb into bed and go to sleep.

Even though there are guards in the corridor and outside the nursery with a nanny sleeping in a bed across from his crib, the same women from the previous day come back. But instead of leaving a toy behind, she picks up the sleepy toddler and leaves the nursery without anyone seeing her. 

With everyone still asleep, the strange woman carries James undetected into the night.

Kristen Welcomes a Baby Boy - Chapter Twenty

Finally, after many hours of labor, Kristen gives birth. The maids clean the crying baby as the royal physician checks to make sure Kristen is ok. The maids place the baby in a small wrap and hand Kristen the baby. Kristen looks down at the baby and declares that it's a boy. She then gives him the name James.

He seems healthy, but the royal physician wants to examine him to make sure all is well with the baby and to see if he is cursed like his mother.

The Physician tells Kristen that he appears to have taken her condition. "His eyes are a bit of a pink color, not exactly red yet, and his skin is a bit pale." the doctor told Kristen. Kristen began to sob, for her worst fear had come true. "I would take all precautions like keeping him out of the sunlight and make sure he gets some blood with his milk as well." the physician instructs Kristen and her ladies.

William could not take seeing Kristen cry. "What should I do? She's been crying for hours and even instructed the ladies to take him away to the nursery." William told Robert, his best friend. "It will pass, William. Just be there for her." Robert replied.

Kristen, now exhausted from crying, starts to calm down a little as William enters the room.

"Please do not be sad. This should be a happy day for us! We have a beautiful baby boy." William says. He then pulled her close and hugged her tight.

"You are right, William. I will have the ladies bring him." They brought James in and handed him to William. William cuddled James up and cooed at him.

Kristen was taken in by the love that William showed James that she was happy and not sad for her son for a moment.

Kristen then placed James in his bassinet and stared at him for a long time. "You are so beautiful. A dream that I thought would never come true, yet here you lay. One day you will be the ruler of Winchester." she told James.

When Kristen was not tending to James, the ladies were in charge of his care. They all cooed at him and just adored him.

They prepared the mix that the physician required for James. He drank the mix and seemed to really like it.

He was a very happy baby and never seemed to cry. Everyone seemed to be falling for the bundle of joy even though they knew one day he would grow up and be just like Kristen with the thirst for blood.

After a long night, the queen's lady puts James into his crib for the day.

After a few days, Kristen and William present James for all to see.

"He's beautiful!" Lara says as she holds James up for a good look. "I do see both you and William in him. He's going to be a heartbreaker when he gets older." Lara giggles when she tells Kristen.

Kristen puts James down for a nap. The night was long, and many had come to see him. 

"Kristen has finally accepted James and seems to be in better spirits. She really had me worried." William told Robert. "I knew it would take her some time, but she would pull through it. She's a very strong woman that has been through a lot in her lifetime." Robert replied.

Kristen was now happy with her growing family. It will take some time to figure out how to raise James and see what challenges he will face with the curse.

But until then, Kristen will do everything in her power to protect and love this child.
