The Alpha's long lost heir
Chapter 174: A second chance

Chapter 174: A second chance

Nyx shifted uncomfortably in her seat, "What?"

"I love you."

She blinked her eyes, and swallowed, feeling very uncomfortable, "Love.. why.. me.. what.. how?"

"You are the most beautiful woman Nyx. You have such a kind heart, and personality."

She rolled her eyes, "I am still mad at you."

"Yet, you helped me fight Aegis, and I have gotten my throne back."

"I.. had to. It is not a nice thing that the Alpha of his pack lives in.. a cottage."

He coughed slightly, "I was living with you.."

"Okay, okay, fine I get it," she sighed.

"I really do love you Nyx," his voice was a whisper this time.

She gulped, "I.. do not know what to say," she looked away, trying to keep a straight face, but her insides were racing.

He sighed, "I understand, it is okay though. I can wait for you."

"Stop saying that," she managed to look at him, "You do not have to wait for me. Pleasure is the only thing that keeps us together."

He coughed, "You are my mate Nyx."

She creased her brows, "Selena is."

"No, she turned out to me Mark’s fated mate, not mine," he looked up.

She rolled her eyes knowing fully well how it has been but just wanted to play dumb.

"Oh, is that so?"

"I can not believe she left you alone for your beta," she placed a hand over her mouth, and snickered.

"Oh, well, that does not matter. I recently realized I never loved her."

She looked at him, "What? Why?"

"I thought I loved her because she was supposed to be my fated mate. In the end, it was all a mix," he scratched his head.

She tore her eyes away from him, and dropped her gaze, breathing softly.

"Hm," she mumbled.

His hand slid over her shoulders, "I do not care how long it takes for you to finally accept me back, I will wait for you Nyx. You have all the time in the world, and it is fine."

She bit her lips. She originally wasn’t a villain, and wasn’t used to keeping grudges. The grudge she kept against him was becoming harder, and harder to keep.

She patted her wrists, "I will be fine," she muttered.

"Did you say something?"

She slowly shook her head, "No."

"I do not know about this sudden love Oberon," she finally said, "I have never been loved before," she smiled bitterly, "Save for my son and Dora, I would have probably never known the meaning of love."

He listened with rapt attention, "I am listening," he whispered.

She closed her eyes, and exhaled, "You see, Dora on a daily basis, always tries to make things a lot easier for me. She always helps me with the chores once she notices I am tired, or just take on the responsibility of taking care of Archi for me."

"She was the one who helped when I was pregnant with Archi. I would have died from all the pressure alone."

He closed his eyes, and exhaled, while he was on the palace, living life, and making life comfortable for Selene who he thought would carry his heir, the mother of his heir almost died.

"I am such a horrible person," he whispered.

"I am surprised I am still alive. I would have been dead if someone else was in your shoes," he shook his head.

She scoffed, "I am just a kind person, the fact that you did all that does not mean I should kill you. What would be the difference between me and you?"

A smile tugged at the corner of his lips when she said that. His admiration for her grew by the minute, and he just wanted to make sure he made it up to her.

"What do you want me to do for you? I said I would make it up to you, even if it means giving you more than half of the kingdom."

She laughed, "More than half? Do not be ridiculous!" She laughed heartily, "I do not want your kingdom. I want something else."

"What is it?"

"Please, protect my son, and treat him right. He has lived for six years without a father.. I want him to experience a father’s love. It has become so hard to deny the fact you are his father, so please take care of him. I want nothing else."

He blinked, "Nothing else?"

"Once he is happy, I am happy too. I want him to feel the love of both parents. I know how happy he was to finally hear he had a father. Please, do not let him down."

Oberon’s heart melted. How did he ever offend such a nice person?

A smile tugged at the corner of his lips, "I will sire do more than that," he whispered in her ears.

Her heart skipped a beat, "What?"

He chuckled, "It is a surprise."

She nodded, "Weird, but okay," she rolled her eyes.

"Nyx, I want you back in my life. I.. do not know if I am worthy of it.. but please let me back in."

"I do not want to be hurt again."

"I will not hurt you. I promise you that, and I do not break my promises," his voice was firm.

She laughed, "I hope so."

He took her hands in hers, "You are still sceptical?"

She shook her head, "No."

"Then what is it?"

She turned to look at him the eyes, "I am not willing to be your mistress."

He bit his lips, "You are not. You are my mate, I might have realized this late, but that does not matter anymore, let all those be in the past please."

She took a deep breath, "I do want to let it go.. but.."

"But?"

"I am scared. What if history repeats itself?"

Oberon was getting hurt by her assumptions but he swallowed it.

"I do not think I would have another mate Nyx."

"You could chest, and reject me," she shrugged.

Oberon wrapped his arms around her waist, drew her close, and slammed his lips on hers.

He kissed her for a while, "I can never reject you," he whispered in her mouth.

She pulled away to catch her breath, "Oh, I.." she wasn’t prepared for that kiss, and as a result, her cheeks burned.

"I want to be a family with you again. I want to take care of Archi with you by my side. If Archi grows up, and realises we are not together, he will definitely question us."

She gulped, "it is not as if I can not answer those questions."

"Please, just give me a chance."

Nyx thought for a while, and then spoke up, "Okay. Thirty days.. I give you thirty days. If you are able to win my heart in those thirty days. I will do whatever you want."

His eyes widened, "So.. you are finally giving me a chance?"

She nodded, "You will do what I want in those thirty days. You have just thirty days, so use it wisely," she got to her heels, and turned around.

"Just thirty days," she said, and walked away.

He nodded, "I will make sure to win you back," he whispered.
