Chapter 80: Lady Nyx

Oberon sat on his throne, still soaked in worry. He didn’t want to imagine Nyx’s reaction, he held his head, still expecting their return.

He stood up and paced around the room, "Why are they not back yet?"

He bit his lips, still waiting for them.

"Please, Nyx, come back with them, please," he muttered.

He sat down again but this time not on his throne. He held his head, "What have I done?"

A bodyguard entered, "Your Majesty," he bowed.

He raised his head, "Any news?"

"The elders have returned your majesty," he said.

He stood up, tension in his eyes, "Did they come with Nyx?"

He shook his head, "I do not know your majesty," he bowed his head.

His face fell, "Okay, thank you," he said.

He bowed and left the throne room.

A few minutes later, the elders filed into the room, they all did obeisance.

"Good day your highness," Demetrius greeted.

He raised his hand, "You may rise, is Nyx with you?"

They all stood up, "Well.. your majesty.."

"I came with them," her voice boomed.

He raised his eyes, and they fell on Nyx who came in with Archi.

His eyes softened and his lips went up, he took some steps towards them. Archi’s eyes brightened, "Yay!"

Oberon kept his gaze on them and hastened his steps. He got to where they stood.

"Nyx..." he called.

She avoided his eyes and looked somewhere else. His eyes fell on Archi who was excited to see him again.

"Archi," he attempted to hold him but Nyx drew him backwards. Oberon understood it immediately and restrained himself.

"I did not come here because of you," she said firmly, "I came here because of my son."

He bit his lips, "Oh, I see."

She nodded, "I want to be excused please," she said aloud.

The elders nodded and left her with Oberon, Nyx looked at Archi, "You can go there now, I will be with you shortly," she smiled at him.

He nodded and left the throne room.

She faced him, "I think it is time for a talk."

He sighed, "Okay, what do you want?"

She arched her brow, "I have decided to come here, but I will want you to know that I have some terms along with it."

He nodded, "Let me hear them."

"We have to stay apart, I do not want to be under anyone, neither do I want to be bound by your customs, I do not want to be involved in any official matter of yours, and yes, stay away from my son."

He blinked his eyes, "But why all these conditions?"

"I came here, because the pack needs my son, and definitely not because of you," she rolled her eyes.

"But Nyx I..."

She shook her head, "I can only allow that physical contact all because of the presentation to the pack, besides that, it is a no."

"Nyx, you can not do this."

"I have not forgotten that you are still with your fated mate, so, definitely I can not have anything to do with you."

He felt his heart fall, "Nyx I am very sorry," he bent his head.

Her lips turned downwards, "I do not want your apology, all I want is our distance, I do not want you anywhere my son or me."

"He.. is my son too."

"I was the one who took care of him for six years, you have nothing to do with him," she frowned.

He closed his eyes, "I am sorry, just give me a chance."

"I will not," she shook her head. She turned around to leave the room but he held her hand to stop her from leaving.

"Please let me go," she said.

"Please, Nyx try to understand me. I am actually making a promise to you."

"It is not too late to break it," she said coldly.

He made her turn around, and wrapped her in his arms, "Please, just give this one chance, I am pleading."

Her heart skipped a beat when she was close to him, his familiar scent filled his nose, she had to fight the internal conflicts that was going on with her.

It has been six years since he last held her that way, and his one touch was sparking off the desires in her again.

She shook her head and disengaged from his arms, "I already warned you, stay away from me," she said firmly.

He looked at her with hurt in his eyes, "Could you just find it in your heart to forgive me?"

She eyed him angrily, "Leave me alone."

He still held onto her hand tightly, pulling her to himself, he set his lips on hers.

She gasped when she felt his lips on hers. He was very passionate from his side, she only stood there in shock.

He wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her closer, exploring her mouth. She was getting dazed, Oberon had always been a good kisser and this moment was making her weak at her knees.

Realizing what this kiss meant, she pulled away from him, rage in her eyes.

"What do you think you are doing?!"

He had a had this satisfied look on his face.

"Are you out of your mind?" She yelled.

He smiled, "No, I very much wanted to do that."

She was so enraged, "I literally told you to stay away from me!"

That moment, Selena entered the throne room, her eyes fell on Nyx, and she gasped.

"Oberon? What is this witch doing here?!"

They both turned around and looked at her, Nyx wiped her mouth, "Now, I have come across another vampire," she rolled her eyes.

"You!" Selena yelled and advanced towards her.

Nyx rolled her eyes and walked past her, not minding her ranting.

She quietly walked out of the throne room, leaving them to their selves.

Selena looked at Oberon, "Why is she here?"

"Because she has the heir you could not birth," he said irritated and left her standing there.
