Do you have a snippet of Secrets of Seaton?

I haven’t opened the google doc in over a year but you can have the first chapter because it’s all I’ve got and it feels weird splitting it up. massive spoilers for book one if you haven’t read it, obviously. I don’t think I’ve posted the last half of book one publicly anywhere so it’s major spoilers with minimal context. enjoy! 🫧

(heavily unedited, it is what it is lmao)

***

The dry grass crunched rather loudly beneath my sandals as I climbed the hillside. With the beach below, the melodic white noise of the ocean was almost loud enough to drown it out completely. It barely touched my ears. But I listened for it. The hill was somewhat steep and every crunch echoing upward was a reassurance I retained sure footing.

Sandals weren’t the best footwear for this kind of activity—as least, not this kind of sandal. They were the most inexpensive pair at the gift shop and I had no other options, what with the husks of my tennis shoes hanging damaged beyond repair in my hand. I clutched the heels in one hand, using the other to help balance as I climbed, salt water still dripping from the soles.

Finally, I reached the top. The view was no longer an endless, sun-bleached green. It was a robust city street with window-shoppers, pale but colorful buildings, and vibrant hanging baskets. Seaton. The Eastern part of it, at least. I’d explored the sporadic bits of the Western side rather thoroughly already. It was a much farther walk to town than I was used to. Before, I lived two minutes at most from the nearest end of the Cape. Now, the quickest path is a twenty-minute trek through sand, a saltwater creek, and two large hills.

I wondered why Nerissa was so insistent on living outside of the city as I followed the road, headed for the sidewalk. Surely we would have found the pod by now had we simply rented rooms within city limits. Here, they would know who we were. They would know how to find us. Marina had sent word ahead of us to let them know we were coming, but no one had reached out.

It begged the question, did they even receive the message? She’s called almost every day since we arrived. My real mother. I wanted to call her ‘mom’. After everything that happened, my heart ached for someone to take that place, but something always stopped the word from leaving my mouth. Things like ‘mom’ and ‘I love you’ and ‘I miss you’ all caught in my throat.

How could I put another woman in that place, when the first one was still so fresh in my mind? Leanne plagued me like a bad rash. At night, I laid awake wondering what she was thinking when I sank her ship. Did she have time to have the last word? Did she truly understand what was about to happen? What was it like to know the girl you raised as your own daughter was about to kill you?

Exhaling slowly, I attempted to swallow down my thoughts, instead moving my eyes to the shop window at my left. Glass trinkets lined a display along the length of the window. At the end of it, near the door, hung beaded jewelry with what appeared to be pieces of shells dangling between the beads in the places of pendants. The next shop was full of children’s toys and plush animals ranging from sealife to trademarks like bears and dogs.

A whimsical portrait of a whale was painted along the back wall that spanned its entire length, the creature’s eyes soft and animated like a cartoon. It matched the store’s overall youthful aesthetic. At the counter stood a little girl with her father, clutching tightly to a blue unicorn plush with a glittery horn. Her eyes were so bright as they were glued to the toy. A bittersweet smile found its way to my lips at the sight.

On the other side of the street, a restaurant’s patio was completely full, seated patrons all talking loudly to be heard by one another over the others. Soulful but beachy music could be heard even from my spot on the other side of the road, only worsening the guests’ abilities to hear. Though, they didn’t seem to mind. All wore smiling, happy faces, holding shaped glasses with colorful umbrellas. Next to it, a bookstore. After that, an antique shop.

It caught my eye just for its nature alone, but the rustic storefront adorned with hanging buoys and beach-themed signs was intriguing enough to draw me in. I trotted across the street to the other sidewalk and ducked inside the open glass doors. The store was much larger than it seemed from the outside. Tables held a wide array of items through the center of the shop, the register and a glass case to the right of the entrance, and various hanging items—along with more signs—lined the far left wall.

“Talofa!” A broad-shouldered man stood behind the register counter. He beamed at me the moment I stepped through the door, the white of his teeth a stark contrast to the warm glow of his skin. “Looking for anything specific or just browsing?”

“Oh, um, just browsing.” I returned the gesture with a smile of my own, but it was not nearly as bright and inviting.

“If you have any questions, just ask.”

“Thank you.”

I turned left and followed the wall, taking slow steps to allow my eyes a little extra time to take in each item displayed. The hung signs looked rather old, with rust chipping away the paint at the corners, but it highlighted their years of use. They were probably beloved on whatever building they used to call home. On the right, various things lay out on the tables—lamps, small anchors, and nick knacks of all kinds.

Though, what intrigued me most was a short podium for hanging jewelry. Necklaces filled each peg that protruded from the wooden center on all sides. There were pendants of all shapes, sizes, and colors, and I found myself lifting a finger to turn the podium on its base. I only scanned the jewelry briefly as it turned stiffly. But they were all worn and damaged by age and sea salt. My eye caught on a silver chain, longer than the others, and I reached for its pendant.

Hanging low enough to touch the table was an old cross, rounded at the top, thick silver with delicate carving at the bottom of each end. The weight in my palm felt heavy, unusual. It looked just as damaged as the rest of the jewelry, its shine eaten away by age and the elements—but I couldn’t stop staring at it. Then, I felt them. The thumps against my skin. They were gentle and rhythmic, a familiar beat that traveled straight to the back of my mind, almost as though I was listening to it just inside the shell of my ears.

It startled me. Eyes wide, I stared down at the pendant in my hand in bewilderment. Could this be a talisman? How could a Kelpie’s necklace end up in an antique shop like this? Quickly, I looked up to find the shopkeeper, but his eyes were already on me. Not in a menacing way—like a friend waiting to see my reaction to something funny or cute. “Um…where did these necklaces come from?” I inquired.

He turned and began around the end of the counter, walking toward me on the other side of the table as he replied. “They come from all over our coast. Usually shipwrecks, found by locals and travelers looking to make some money on vacation from finds they don’t want,” he explained. I could barely hear him over the incessant beating. “That one you have there was sold to me by a diver who claimed to find a wreck that’s quite a local legend.”

“What’s the legend?” I asked, raising a brow curiously.

He stood in front of me now, towering over me a bit as he looked down at the cross in my hand. The man eyed it a moment, gaze flickering once or twice up to my face, as if questioning something I couldn’t quite place. I supposed it probably did look odd—my tense posture and iron grip on the pendant. But he answered me after only a second’s pause.

“The Eversor sank during a storm almost a year ago. Eyewitnesses claimed dark clouds gathered over the ship as it neared the coast, and they heard a loud crack before it started going under. Once the ship had sunk completely, the clouds went away, and the crew was never found. Most local divers refuse to go near its suspected location—old superstitions—but there have been a few brave enough to look for the wreck.”

My eyes rounded. “None of the crew survived?”

“Not to our knowledge,” he shrugged, a brief but solemn expression on his face. “That piece came in about a month ago. Diver said it was deep inside the wreck, in the captain’s quarters. I wasn’t sure what to make of it. The pendant almost seemed to vibrate.”

“Were there any others?”

“Just this one.”

“How much do you want for it?”

His lips curved upward in a small smile of excitement, a physical embodiment of now we’re talking. “Make me an offer.”

Nerissa had given me money in case of emergency, or if I should need it to find the pod for any reason. A part of me that was a bit more responsible, reasonable, was scolding me for even thinking of spending the emergency money on something like this. I didn’t need to get involved in something new, something that had nothing to do with me, and would probably resolve itself eventually. But the gentle beats at the back of my mind grew louder, quickly becoming insatiable as I considered an offer.

Whoever it belonged to wanted me to go through with it. I could feel it. They were urging me to purchase it, to return it to where it belonged. Exhaling deeply, I shifted my weight between my feet. “Would you take fifty?”

The man hummed as if in thought. Then, he grew a wide smile. “Deal,” he nodded. “These things belong with people who will appreciate them.”

I bit my tongue on the other end of a relieved ‘thank you’. He lead the way to the front counter where he rang it up on the register and I dug into my pocket for the emergency money. There was only ten dollars left, but I couldn’t think of anything I would genuinely need it for before heading back to the rental. The man was easy-going and clearly a local—it would be stupid to leave without asking any more questions I needed answered about this place. Or, more specifically, the people in it.

The story he gave me about the shipwreck was suspicious. If only a couple of local divers were courageous enough—or foolish enough—to. So, I smiled up at him in thanks as I took hold of the rope handles on the paper gift bag he tucked the necklace into, and spoke up. “You wouldn’t happen to know any of the local divers willing to dive that wreckage, would you?” I asked, squinting an eye as if to say it was a long shot. And it was. But, I also needed to be careful in how I tread these waters.

It would be all too easy to give up something important by accident. “Not personally, no,” he gave a shake of his head. “But there is someone who might be able to find one for you. Adrian Delmar. He’s currently a surfing instructor down at the Surf Shack, near Pontas Beach. He’s got connections from when he was a scuba instructor a few years back.”

Suddenly, my tongue felt dry. Adrian Delmar? The man Dylan said to look for? If what Dylan said was true, and Adrian did in fact know how to find the local mermaids, then I would need to go straight to the Shack. “Oh, that’s great! Thank you for your help,” I said, as I turned to leave.

However, the man’s voice stopped me before I could reach the door, “You’ll want to wait to head to the beach until tomorrow. It’s too long a walk and the Shack will be closed by the time you get there today. They open at six AM.”

“Oh, alright.” I gave him a grateful nod, though it was hard to hide my disappointment completely. I was so close to making the connection. But the last thing I wanted was to be rude, so I smiled still and thanked him once more before exiting the shop, returning to the warm outdoors.

I tried to focus on the positives as I began the trek back to the rental. Now, I knew where to find Dylan’s friend. And, once I talk to him and explain the situation, he can take me to the pod. All I had to do now was wait until morning. Over the edge of the cliff that looked over the sandy coast, the sun was only a couple of hours away from the horizon. It won’t be long now before it sets and night falls, and I can easily pass the rest of the waiting time with sleep.

Although, I wasn’t sure how easy it would be to fall asleep now. I was too excited. Perhaps I could borrow one of Nerissa’s books? Doubtful. She kept them locked in her bedroom all day, and only she could unlock the door. Nerissa had been a proper recluse since we first arrived in Seaton. I rarely saw her when I was inside and, when I wasn’t, Emma told me she didn’t see much of Nerissa either. I often wondered just what she was up to in there that was more important than getting Emma to the pod.

What was the purpose of studying her spellbook? Was she planning to use it for something nefarious again? I wanted to believe that she truly wanted to change, to stay away from dangerous and prohibited uses of magic now. But it was incredibly hard not to give up that belief. With a heavy sigh, I reached into the paper gift bag in my hand and grasped the talisman. Leaving the city, I could look it over more privately, with the last of the sun’s rays as a kind of spotlight.

The tarnished silver reflected the light as I turned it in my hand, examining the craftsmanship. It was clearly made by someone who took pride in intricacies. There was a rope-esque design on one side with a braid appearance that followed the border. My thumb grazed over the carving carefully, testing the texture beneath my skin. Again, I could hear the beating in my head. “Who are you?” I whispered, thinking aloud.

It was such a beautiful talisman. I couldn’t help but wonder how it was lost—though, it was most likely stolen. If I could hear the heartbeat, didn’t that mean the owner was still out there somewhere, looking for it? A bit absentmindedly, I reached up to grasp at the cross around my own neck. After experiencing David’s heartbeat in my palm, it felt utterly wrong to hear nothing but empty silence.

Though, I couldn’t give up yet. Kane said that some come back, and if this talisman’s owner being alive meant anything, it was that he was telling the truth. They do come back. David loved humans too much to simply give up. Still, my chest ached if I thought about it for too long. David always had a way of finding me, largely in part because of the necklace he’d given me—so, logically, this talisman’s owner can also find me. When they do, I can give it back.

The walk back to the rental was sombering with all of these thoughts in my head. My mother, my real mother, what I’d done, what I was going to do. When I finally arrived at the house, Emma was relaxed against one of the wooden lounge chairs on the deck behind the house. Soaking in the remaining sun, no doubt. As I hopped up the steps on the side, she noticed my approach and smiled in acknowledgement before sitting up, turning to place her bare feet against the sandy deck.

“I hope you’re hungry, I’m making seafood gumbo,” she said, pushing down the chair in order to stand. “I’m just waiting for the timer to go off and then I’ll add the shrimp.”

My mouth curved up at the edges instinctively at the mention of the pink prawns. “That sounds great. Have you seen Nerissa much today?” I asked her. Emma began walking with me toward the back door. Though, I took an extra step to reach the door first, pulling open the sliding glass for her as she answered my question.

“Not too much. I heard some…sounds, in there earlier. But nothing since,” she shook her head, headed for the kitchen.

The inside of the house looked smaller than the outside somehow. A small kitchen against the right wall with stools at the counter a few feet in from the door, it opened to a small but cozy living area on the left, before a single hallway lead to the three small bedrooms we divided up and the one bathroom we all had to share. Most of the exterior siding was drastically sunbleached, but the interior walls and decor were bursting with color.

Coral and pale blue walls matched the beach-themed throw pillows on the couch and the light-proof drapes. Table lamps and mounted light fixtures were all nautical—the driftwood lamp on the end table by the living room couch being my favorite. It felt the most authentic. Emma tried her best to make the most out of the small kitchen space, though she hated the yellow backsplash. We stayed up late a night or two ago joking about all the therapeutic ways we would remove it.

I didn’t know her very well at all when we first arrived, but Emma had proven to be quite easy to get along with. I’d felt myself getting more and more attached to her and her baby, as though it were one of the girls, someone I considered to be like a sister. I was genuinely excited to meet it. However, I wasn’t so sure that I would. Once Emma was settled with the Seaton pod, Nerissa and I were to return to Cape Coral, and there was no guarantee I would be back to Seaton again.

The thought left a heaviness in my chest, an odd taste on my tongue. Emma stood in the kitchen now, holding the lid to her stew pot in one hand and a wooden spoon with the other, slowly stirring around the contents of the pot. She looked rather at home despite the stress of her emergency relocation, and I couldn’t help but relax my shoulders in the presence of the infectious calm. “I’m going to try to talk to Nerissa,” I announced, as I started for the hall.

She glanced up briefly, focused on her creation, and gave a nod. “Good luck!”

I exhaled. It was difficult to resist the feeling of dread threatening to come over me as I approached Nerissa’s door. It was shut tight, as it always was, and not a single sound slipped through the wood. Hesitantly, I lifted my hand and tapped my knuckles against it twice. “Nerissa, it’s me,” I told the door. “We need to talk. I might’ve found a way to the pod.”

As usual, there was nothing. I waited a moment in silence by the door, shifting weight between my feet to ease the soreness from all the walking I’d done, and I could hear the echoes of Emma cooking in the kitchen—the scrape of a spoon against a pot, the sizzle and pop of hot liquid, accompanied by a rich scent of spice. All it did was make me realize how hungry I really was. My stomach was beginning to twist and hollow out. Then, my blood ran cold with adrenaline as the door yanked open.

Nerissa stood in the doorway, the rest of the room darkened and unintelligible behind her, and she stared at me with tired eyes. Though, there was no mistaking the annoyance on her features. Her under eyes were colored a faint purple that looked exceptionally pigmented against her skin, fairer than I was accustomed to seeing. Had she been sleeping? Was she even leaving her room to eat? The sight of her was almost concerning enough to delete the purpose of my visit from my brain.

I blinked hard as she snapped a low and groveled, “What?”

She punctuated the word with a dip of her brows. The girl sure knew how to look downright menacing when she wanted to. “A shopkeeper told me where to find Adrian, the man Dylan said would help us. I’ll go talk to him tomorrow,” I explained, swallowing to force it past my dry throat.

“Good for you.”

Nerissa moved to take a step back—attempting to close the door in my face, I knew—and I spoke up, “Oh, I’m sorry, am I keeping you in the loop? Am I forcing you to participate in your redemption mission? How silly of me.”

Her eyes rolled to meet mine and I pursed my lips, lowering my brows in an expression of disgust and annoyance. Two can play at this game. She paused as she stared me down, but only long enough to speak. “Maybe if you stopped using me to make yourself feel better, you’d get something useful done,” she said.

My head recoiled on my shoulders and the door snapped shut between us.

Guide to Finding High-Quality Platinum Jewelry Near You

Platinum jewelry represents elegance, durability, and a timeless choice for any occasion. Whether you are searching for the perfect engagement ring, a special gift, or a personal indulgence, finding high-quality platinum jewelry is paramount. Given platinum's significance and cost, choosing the right piece from a reputable retailer is crucial. This guide will walk you through the steps to locate high-quality platinum jewelry near me, ensuring you make an informed and satisfying purchase.

Step 1: Understanding Platinum Quality

Before venturing out to shop, it’s important to understand what sets high-quality platinum apart. Platinum is a highly durable metal that naturally has a brilliant white shine that does not fade or tarnish over time. It is often used in nearly pure form (usually 95% pure) which makes it hypoallergenic and ideal for sensitive skin. Look for hallmarks such as "950 Plat" or "Pt950" which indicate the purity of the platinum, signifying that the metal is 95% platinum and 5% other alloys.

Step 2: Research Reputable Jewelers

Start your search by researching local jewelers who specialize in fine jewelry, particularly those well-known for their collection of platinum pieces. You can begin online by checking reviews on sites like Google, Yelp, or even social media platforms. Customer reviews can provide insight into the quality of the jewelry and the level of customer service provided. Additionally, consider asking for recommendations from friends or family members who have purchased platinum jewelry.

It’s beneficial to select jewelers who are accredited by reputable industry organizations such as the Jewelers of America or those who have certifications from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). These credentials often indicate a higher level of professionalism and reliability.

Step 3: Visit Stores and Inspect the Jewelry

Once you have a list of potential stores, it's time to visit them. When inspecting platinum jewelry, look for its finish and craftsmanship. High-quality platinum jewelry should have a smooth and consistent finish without any visible blemishes or rough patches. Check for the quality of any gemstones used; they should be securely set without any wiggling.

Discuss with the jeweler about where they source their platinum and the types of alloys used with it. This conversation can provide you with insights into the quality and durability of the jewelry. Additionally, a knowledgeable jeweler should be able to provide you with a detailed history of each piece, including its design and manufacturing process.

Step 4: Compare Prices and Services

Pricing for platinum jewelry can vary widely depending on the retailer, the complexity of the design, and the current market for platinum. While it might be tempting to go for a lower price, remember that this could affect the quality of the platinum and craftsmanship. Compare prices among different stores but weigh these against the quality and service provided.

Additionally, inquire about the after-sale services offered, such as cleaning, repairs, and possible return policies. Good customer service can make maintaining your platinum jewelry easier and enhance its longevity, making it a crucial factor in your decision.

Step 5: Certifications and Warranties

For added assurance, ask for certifications for any platinum jewelry you are considering. A certificate from a reputable lab about the purity of the platinum and the quality of any gemstones involved provides authenticity to your purchase.

Moreover, consider stores that offer warranties on their jewelry. A warranty can protect your investment and provide peace of mind, ensuring that you can enjoy your platinum jewelry for years to come.

Conclusion

Finding high-quality platinum jewelry involves thorough research, understanding the characteristics of platinum, and choosing reputable jewelers. By following these steps, you can ensure that the platinum jewelry you purchase is of the highest quality and that it will be a lasting symbol of beauty and endurance. Remember, investing time in selecting the right piece and the right jeweler will result in a timeless addition to your jewelry collection.

Navigating the World of Jewelry and Rolex Watch Repair: Your Guide to Finding the Right Shop

In the bustling landscape of American consumerism, the quest to find the perfect place for jewelry and Rolex watch repairs, as well as for selling precious pieces, is akin to searching for a hidden gem. The right shop can mean the difference between a treasured item restored to its former glory and a sentimental disaster.

Understanding the Importance of Expert Jewelry Repair

When it comes to jewelry repair, expertise and precision are paramount. Whether it's a family heirloom or a recent purchase, your jewelry holds both financial and emotional value. It's essential to choose a repair shop that understands the intricacies of different metals, gemstones, and construction techniques. Look for a store with certified craftsmen who are experienced in handling a variety of repair needs, from simple clasp fixes to more complex restoration work.

Selling Your Jewelry: Trust and Transparency Matters

Deciding to sell jewelry can be a tough emotional and financial decision. When looking for a place to sell your pieces, it's crucial to find a reputable dealer who offers transparency and fair pricing. A trustworthy jeweler should provide a detailed explanation of how they evaluate and price your items. They should be knowledgeable about current market trends and offer a price that reflects your jewelry's true value.

Rolex Watch Repair: Specialized Care for a Luxury Timepiece

Rolex watches aren't just timekeepers; they are symbols of craftsmanship and enduring style. Repairing a Rolex requires a specialized skill set. Seek out shops that have certified watchmakers specifically trained in Rolex repair and maintenance. These specialists should have access to the right tools and genuine parts to ensure your watch functions flawlessly and maintains its value.

How to Find the Right Shop

Research and Reviews: Start by searching online for “jewelry repair near me” or “Rolex watch repair.” Read reviews and testimonials to gauge the reliability and quality of the services offered.

Certifications and Expertise: Verify the credentials of the jewelers and watchmakers. Look for certifications from recognized institutions in the industry.

Transparent Processes: The best shops will be open about their repair and evaluation processes. They should be willing to answer your questions and provide detailed insights into the work required.

Personal Recommendations: Sometimes, the best leads come from friends or family members who have had positive experiences. Ask around for recommendations.

Initial Consultation: Before committing, visit the shop. Observe the staff's knowledge, the workshop's cleanliness, and the overall customer service.

Continuing Your Journey in Jewelry Care and Sales

Once you have selected the right shop, it's important to establish a relationship with the jeweler or watchmaker. A jeweler who knows your personal style and history with your pieces can provide tailored advice and services. This rapport becomes particularly beneficial for future jewelry purchases, repairs, or sales.

Moreover, educating yourself about the basics of jewelry care, the specifics of your pieces, and the current jewelry market can make your interactions more fruitful. Knowledge empowers you to make informed decisions and ask the right questions, ensuring your treasured items receive the care and valuation they deserve.

Remember, the world of jewelry and luxury watches is not just about transactions; it's about preserving stories, maintaining luxury, and celebrating beauty. Whether you're repairing a cherished watch, restoring a family heirloom, or selling a piece that no longer fits your life, the right jeweler can make all the difference in ensuring your jewelry journey is as brilliant as the gems it involves.

Final Thoughts

Finding the right shop for jewelry and Rolex watch repair, or to sell your precious items, is a journey that demands diligence and patience. With Malak Jewelers, your experience becomes easier and more credible than ever. Remember, it's not just about the financial transaction; it's about entrusting a part of your history to someone who understands its worth.
