Chapter 227: Dead on revenge

Walking briskly to the guard’s quarters, Nyx had a frown on her face.

"I still do not know what to think anymore, if he is really sorry it he just wants me back because of something else," she lifted up her eyes to look at the skies.

"Pathetic," she rolled her eyes.

Increasing her pace, she walked farther down until she could see the quarter’s in sight.

"Tsk, he even acknowledges Isla, I mean she is not real," she scoffed. She could feel a burning sensation in her chest as she spoke each sentence.

’Am I jealous of Isla?’

"Of course not, why am I jealous? I came here to teach him a lesson, not crave for attention," she muttered furiously under her breath, swallowing hard, trying to calm her burning cheeks.

She reached the front door, a scowl resting on her face. A young man greeted her politely, "Good day madam, do you need something?"

She nodded, darting her eyes around, "I am looking for my son, er.. Logan," she managed to get the name off her lips.

The guard paused, "Logan? Oh.. I know him. Let me go tell him you are here. What is the name?"

"Just say his mother," she forced a smile on her lips.

"Sure thing," he turned on his heels, going back inside.

She stood akimbo waiting for Archi, while she was trying so hard to get Oberon out of her head, "How dare he? Hmph!" Her cheeks burned with anger again, "Just who does he think he is?" She crossed her hands across her chest.

"So much for a king, tsk," she scoffed.

"Mother," she heard his sonorous voice call.

She raised her head to look at him, then breathed a sigh of relief, "Son! You!" She hit him hard on the shoulder.

"What did I do?" He tried countering her attacks, but they were futile.

"What exactly did you do? Huh?" She kept hitting him, "Do you want to get yourself killed?" She half yelled at him.

"Oh come on, you know I will not die," be groaned, "Stop hitting me, it hurts," he tried running away.

"Do not get yourself killed you little.." she ran out of breath, and decided to catch it.

He breathed a sigh of relief, "Phew, can we get ouf of here? We do not want anyone listening to our conversation, right?"

She rolled her eyes, "Let us go."

He took her hand, leading her to the back of the building. It was an open space with just a few benches, and a lot of rocks, where the guards would sometimes come together to catch up on things. Luckily for them, there was no one there.

"Now breathe in, and tell me what I did," he made her sit down.

"Why would you poison the prince?" Shw whispered, her eyes wide with shock.

His eyes drooped, "That was a total accident mother, I had clearly put it in Oberon’s tea cup, I still do not know how the prince drank it."

Nyx shuddered, "This is getting out of hand. What if you do something wrong again?"

"Stop thinking so much mother, it is not a big deal," he grunted, taking his seat beside her on the bench.

"What? Do you know what you are saying? The prince is lying down there, looking half dead. He has not woken up since, or even responded to any of the medications, is that not a big deal?"

He sucked his teeth, "I screwed up, I know. I still did not intend for the prince drinking Oberon’s tea," he palmed his face.

"Hmm, why were you taken to the throne room today? Whar did you do?"

He raised his head, "I killed the assistant head guard," he shrugged his shoulders.

She gasped loudly, her eyes widening with a mixture of fear, and shock, "What?!"

"They do not know, I left no traces at all."

"Archi! Since when did you want to wipe out the entire Kingdom!?"

"Ugh, he knew too much. He would have gotten me in trouble, I just can not risk anything."

"Archi, this was not the plan. You are looking more like a rogue now."

He laughed, "Rogue? Oh we have been rogues all our lives, mother. Not being a member of the lycanthropy pack, I lived in the Savanah for twenty years of my life! How does that make me a member of this pack?"

Nyx’s heart sank with her son’s words. This was not the life she wanted him to live.

He rose to his feet, "I do not want you to start thinking about me right now, this is not the life you want me to live," he added as if he heard her thoughts, "All that matters now, is to kill him, and leave from here quietly."

"What about the heir?"

"What heir? That prince? He can take his uncle’s stead. I want nothing to do with him or this Kingdom," he sighed deeply, "I do not want to take the throne of someone I would kill soon," his eyes softened, "That would be wrong."

Nyx stood up, walking towards him she held his shoulders, "Archi, let us just forget about this, and go back home. We can always let fate decide what is best for us, I am already having a bad feeling about this."

"So you are saying, we should forgive him? Is that it?" He raised his brows.

She kept mute for a while, "Well, I.."

He took hold of her hands, gently removing them from his shoulders, "Go ahead, and forgive him then. I will take that revenge, whether fate wants it or not," a smirk played on his lips.

"But Archi.. if I choose to forgive him, does that not mean you should stop scheming?"

"This is not all about you mother! What about me?" He held his chest, "I lived without a father for the first six years of my life, was I not entitled to love from both parents? Am I cursed?" His eyes grew darker with every question.

Tears sprang to her eyes, "Archi.. please, we can always talk about this."

"I do not want to talk about anything. Let me do what I want to do. If not for his selfish perverted desires, I would not have to come here, living this cursed life I live."

Nyx went mum. Those words had driven arrows deep into her heart.

The gravity of his words soon hit him, "I.. am sorry mother, I did not mean it that way," his darkened eyes softened, "I am sorry," he tried holding her hands, but she brushed past him with tears burning her eyes.

"Mother wait!"
