The relationship between witch, Marisol Vera, and mortal, Ray Vera.
History[]
Early Life[]
A few years after Marisol was forced to leave Dexter and Macy Vaughn due to the price of Macy's resurrection, she met Ray and married him. They had a daughter, Mel. Seven years later, Marisol conceived her youngest daughter, Maggie with Dexter. Although Marisol pretended that Ray was the father of the child, Ray always knew that she had given birth from another man.
When Maggie was five, Ray left Marisol and hardly ever kept in touch.
Throughout the Series[]
In "Jingle Hell", Mel and Maggie argue over Ray visiting. Mel believes that Ray abandoned them when they were younger and the fact that he is always finding excuses not to see Maggie while Maggie trusts him. Later, Ray texts Maggie and tells her he can't make it, hurting her.
In "Witch Perfect", Maggie learns that Ray is only Mel's father while Macy's father is her biological father which also explains why Ray had been distant from her.
In "The Source Awakens", when Macy rewrote reality to make it that Mel couldn't grow up with a mother, other than the circumstances of their break up, it seems like Marisol's relationship with Ray stayed mostly the same. Only, in this reality, she didn't dupe him about Maggie's paternity, due to Ray leaving with Mel when she was toddler for her safety.
In "Guess Who's Coming to SafeSpace Seattle", after discovering Ray was actually alive, Mel and Maggie eventually had to tell him that they, and their mother, were witches. They began to doubt that their parents' relationship was based on deception one way or other. Ray claimed that he did love Marisol, despite her not being fully open with him.
In "Curse Words", Mel asks Ray to tell her what really happened between him and Marisol when he left them. Ray reveals that when they first met, they were both professors of the Hilltowne University. They fell in love and got married, but because Ray was traveling often for his archeological career, Marisol was left alone to take care of Mel, which made her lonely. After a long time of loneliness, Marisol fell back into the arms of her ex-boyfriend, Dexter Vaughn. Ray found out about the affair and Maggie's existence from it. Despite their effort to try to make the relationship work again, the knowledge about the affair broke Ray's heart and drove him down a dark path until he left them.
In "Don't Look Back in Anger", TBA
Between "Not That Girl" and "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Sandwich" with the appearance of Kaela Danso, Mel and Maggie wondered how she could be related to them by blood and Marisol or Ray were two of the possible contenders until, thanks to Filiation Frame, it turned out that her bioparents had nothing to do with someone from the Vaughns or the Vera Family.
In "Unveiled", TBA
In "Truth or Cares", TBA
Trivia[]
- Mel resents her father due to her parents' horrible relationship, although later she found the strength to forgive him when she found out that her mother had broken his heart by cheating with another man.
- It is unknown if they were on good terms prior to Marisol's death however due to Mel's reaction of the mere mention of him it's implied it wasn't. In addition, it seems that he came to her funeral only to steal her unusual relics, including a Darklighter Talisman.
