Chapter 83: Choices

"Risa?"

Risa stared at her with wide eyes, "Nyx, you?"

Nyx was dazed for a while after which she recovered.

"What are you doing here?" Nyx asked.

Risa walked up to her, taking in her features, "How come? I mean, you are not dead?"

Nyx frowned, "What was I expecting?" She rolled her eyes.

"You are the mother of Oberon’s heir!" She gasped.

"So? How is that your concern?"

"Nothing, I am just.. surprised.. you were alive all these years? Where did you go?"

"Nowhere, it is not in your best interest to know," she held her head angrily.

Risa was still in shock, "So.. you carry his heir.. you definitely have some power, oh moon goddess, you are now a queen! If I was the one who married him, I probably would have been the one who carried his heir!" She whined.

"Stop being a fool and go back, you are bothering me," she said pissed.

Risa looked at her with reddened eyes,"You!" She pointed at her.

"Do not try doing something funny, if you touch me, the Alpha will come for you, remember, I am the mother of his heir," she smirked.

"Show off! Bloody show off!"

"You know it is the truth, it is not a show off," she said calmly.

"Tsk, you must be swelling with pride right now, hmph," she folded her arms across her chest grumpy.

"Do not be so pained, she rolled her eyes, there are better werewolves out there, you must surely have a lot of them at your fingertips, so go for them and keep your eyes off its boundaries."

Risa was hurt by her words, she charged at her but suddenly remembered that she was the mother of Oberon’s heir hence she was not to be touched.

"I will definitely come for you Nyx, I swear!"

"Do not waste your time sister,go do something with your wasted life."

She gasped loudly, "Wh.. what?"

She shrugged, "You heard me, go do something with your wasted life, no need coming to threaten me, they will not move a stone."

"Are you.. what.. how could you...?" She was short of words, her eyes swelling with tears.

Nyx smirked, "Do not cry, I was just saying," she scoffed.

"How dare you?!"

"Lower your voice, there is a banquet going on, you might be embarrassed for interrupting such a great feast," she smirked.

Risa clenched her fist, if she was given th opportunity to strangle Nyx, she would have done it wholeheartedly.

"I hate you!"

"I know you do, now go away from here, go do something else with yourself."

"Show off! Let me go get mother! She knows how to take care of you!" She stormed off wiping her face and angry.

Nyx sighed, "Unfortunately, I am not the Nyx who was so fragile six years ago, I am a whole different person," she straightened her face and walked away , already getting tired of the whole scenario.

"I have to go back, there is no way I am staying another night here," she shook her head.

"I have to be away from everyone, completely, or else it would turn into something worse."

She had to retreat to another part of the palace, where she was sure Risa would not find her. She wanted to get away from trouble as much as possible.

"We have to leave by nightfall, I am already tired of this place," Nyx told Dora.

"That is a good idea.. but what about Archi?"

"What about him?"

"You know how he was before he came here, would you want that to continue with him?"

She paused, "Oh, that..." she held her head and sat down, "Archi might suffer from that ailment again," she gulped.

"Yes, that is what I am saying. Even if you want to move away, at least do not be so far away from Oberon, think of Archi in all of this."

"Oh dear moon goddess, how am I supposed to cope with all these?"

"I do not like it too, but we can not lose Archi, can we?"

She shook her head, "I love my son," she bit her lips.

"If you do, you would not want him to go through all that would you?"

She shook her head, "Oh, no, no, I will stay but, I do not know how much more I can take, I want to stay away from all these people."

Dora held her hand, "Nyx, focus, you are not here because of all these people, you came here because of your son and the pack, so do not bother, you are not here because of them."

"I know, but it seems I am too soft, I can not seem to resist."

"Then learn it, you have to learn it."

She sighed, "Oh, goodness," she palmed her face.

"Be calm, you will be fine, you have to get used to everything, you will be fine."

"My son, I want to protect him, but.." she held her head, she was very confused.

Dora sat beside her, "Do not worry about him, just make sure he is around Oberon, even if you do not want him to be with him."

She nodded, "Yes.. I should," she sighed, short of words.

"Loosen up Nyx! What is wrong with you?"

"I am just worried," she closed her eyes, "I do not want to damage my son,if he continues seeing me this way, it could affect me, and I am this way when I am around Oberon."

"Compose yourself, once you are, everything will be a walk over."

"I hope so, I am literally freaking out, I do not want to..."

"Calm, calm, everything will be a walk over, do not be so pressured, lest it rubs on Archi."

She raised her head, "I do not want that," she shook her head.

"Then prevent it, make sure it does not happen, you can do this and you will do it, you have no choice," she shrugged.

Nyx sighed, "That I have to do."
