Chapter 97: Risa tries blending in

"Hmph, that son of hers," she shook her head wiping her hand.

"Ugh! Is that how he behaves towards her?"

She shook her head in irritation, "How I wish I could get rid of those two! They are definitely going to spoil things for me," she bit her fingernails, "What am I going to do now? I think they suspect me," she creased her brows.

"She sighed, "Hm, I have to get rid of them without Oberon asking questions and at the same time, in a very nice way," she grinned.

"They would not know what hit them," she smirked.

She twisted her lips, "In order for that to happen, I have to be more like her, like Nyx, else, nothing is going to change," she nodded.

She exhaled, "Acting like her is sure hard though, I already hate her too much," she rolled her eyes.

She sighed, "Play your cards well Risa, you never know what is going to happen next," she shrugged and laid down properly on the bed staring at the ceiling.

"I can do this, it is not a big deal, is it?" She whispered.

She exhaled again and closed her eyes, "Why is this so hard?" She clenched her fists.

"Ugh!"

There was a knock on the door, she snapped her eyes open, "Wh- who is it?" She asked.

Elena came in, "Nyx, how are you my dear?" She smiled.

Risa felt her insides coiling, what was she doing here?

"I.. am fine your majesty," she blinked nervously.

She went to sit beside her, "Are you okay? Do you feel any pains? I was so worried when I saw you in a pool of blood, it was terrifying," she held her head.

"I- I am fine, thank you for asking your majesty," she sighed.

"Do you need anything?"

’Hm, Nyx do have a lot of attention here.’

"Yes your majesty," she answered quickly.

"What do you want?"

"I would like to take a walk round the garden," she answered.

"Now? No, I think you should have some rest, walking around in this condition is not good for you at all," she tried to explain.

Risa got irritated, she wanted to talk back at her but suddenly remembered Nyx would never talk back at an elder.

"But.. I really want to take a walk, please let me go," she pleaded with puppy eyes.

"I really care about you and would not want anything to happen to you, please rest, you are still recovering from that injury, it is a miracle you survived."

Risa was growling inside, she clenched her fists, resisting the temptation not to talk back at her.

"Yes, your majesty, I will do as you say," she exhaled.

Elena held her hand, "Thank you child, this means a lot to me, I really do not want anything to happen to you ever again. I shall continue keeping a close watch on you."

Risa panicked, a close watch?

"A- a close watch? What do you mean your highness?"

"I just want your safety my dear, I failed once and I will not fail again."

"There is no need for that, I can be on my own, I am not a child anymore."

"Do not get me wrong dear, I am not trying to make you feel like a child, I am just saying this to make sure you are safe at all times. You are not passing through what you have already passed," she said firmly.

’What did Nyx pass through? Oh goodness, I should have made a lot of research! I hope I do not eventually make a mistake.’

"About that.. uh.. that is all in the past now, why are you making such a fuss about it?"

Elena was a bit embarrassed, "I am just making up for my mistake."

Risa looked away, "It is fine, I will be safe but that does not mean you have to watch me all the time, I need my own space too."

Elena was hurt by her words, "O-okay, if you say so then," she sighed sadly.

She stood up, "I should leave you to yourself now. Please rest well and do not over bother yourself, okay?"

She nodded and faked a smile, "Thank you your majesty, I will be fine," she chuckled.

Elena nodded and left the room.

Risa bit her lips, "All this is making me go crazy, ugh!"

She held her head, "Be calm Risa, be calm, just blend in, it is not much of a big deal, I can do this."

She exhaled deeply, "I can do this."

***

She screamed again for the umpteenth time, "Help! I am choking here! Anyone?!"

The walls were also closing in on her, the darkness thickned.

"Help me! I want to get out of this place!"

She kept hitting the walls but there was no progress, "Oh, goodness, is this how I am going to die?" She asked in despair.

She hit the walls again, "Help! Please!"

"You need help?"

She turned around, "Yes, please help me, get me out of here!"

"Tsk, only on one condition."

"I will do anything just get me out of here!"

There was a low, evil, chuckle, "Then give me your wolf, only then will I get you out of here."

"My wolf? Why?"

"Do you still want to get out of here?"

The walls were coming closer and closer, she was already suffocating since there was no air.

"The walls are closing in already, do you still want to die or give me your wolf and live?"

She was in a dilemma, giving him her wolf and living, or refusing and dieing.

"What do you even want my wolf for? I will not give it to you!"

"Tsk, happy death day then," he laughed and the walls finally closed in on her.

"Nooooooo!" Her voice was heard.

______

"No!" Nyx screamed and snapped her eyes open, panting wildly.

"Oh, it was just a dream," she said a bit relieved.

She looked around and tried sitting up but she felt a sharp pain in her chest.

"Ah!" She hissed in pain.

"You have finally woken up, hm, are you not just one lucky wolf."

She faced the direction of the voice.

"Father?"

"Hmph! Do not call me your father! I am not your father."

She creased her brows, "What am I doing here? Why have you brought me here?"

"Does that matter? The only thing that matters right now, is that Risa is now the new Luna," he grinned.

She gasped and tried to stand up but the pain in her chest would not let her.

"Curse you!" She yelled at him.

He rolled his eyes, "There is absolutely nothing you can do to me, you are as good as dead," he smirked.

"How could you do this to me? Did I ever say I was interested in being the Luna?"

"But you already are, I just wonder why you are so lucky sometimes," he frowned.

She inhaled sharply and looked at herself, "What have you done to me?!"

"Just a little stabbing, nothing much," he chuckled.

She screamed, "What did I ever do to you? Why did you do this to me?"

"That does not matter, just get ready to die soon, you are just being a nuisance alive."

Her eyes watered but she refused to cry, she had to think of something and very fast.

"Just wait till I get my hands on you!"

"Ha! In that state? Oh my!" He laughed sarcastically, "You can do nothing to a fly in that state!" He mocked.

"I am not scared of you, do your worst!"

He got angry and grabbed her chin, "Listen, if I wanted to, I would have strangled you right here and now, so do not push me to the wall."

Despite the pain in her chest, she grabbed his hair and ripped a good number of strands from his hair causing him to yelp in pain.

"You worthless fool!" He tried to hit her but she took his hand and twisted it before he could do anything else.

He yelled and stepped back, yelling in pain.

"Do not try that mistake of thinking I am that same Nyx you once knew, I might be injured, but I am not helpless!"

He cursed her over and over again but it did not seem to shake her.

She tried to get up again but the pain in her chest forced her to stay on the bed.

"I swear you will regret this Andrew!"

She moaned and tossed her head backwards hissing in pain.

"You little witch!"

"You know I am not one, I am still a werewolf, unlike your puny little daughter who was probably picked up from the streets," she talked back.

Andrew was surprised at her audacity, when did Nyx become this rude?

"How, who taught you this rudeness?"

She looked away, "That is not for you to know, you should go do something else," she scoffed.

"I swear, I will definitely kill you Nyx! Watch me as I do it!"
