Nyx's POV

Otis lounged at Clyde without warning and successfully pulled him away from my body.

"I knew it would come down to this, you sneaky sly" Otis snarled and delivered a heavy punch to Clyde's face.

"Otis!" I screamed in horror

"Stay out of this mate" he returned, his eyes blaring with anger as he grabbed Clyde up from his collar.

"You bad being, I have always known your intentions towards my princess were bad" Otis threw Clyde off and he staggered slightly to remain standing.

"What do you want from Nyx? Or you can't see she is taken already? Stay away from her and stop pretending to be good with all this pretentious facade you have put on display to win her heart I presume" he spat.

"My intentions towards Nyx are clear and there is nothing I'm faking to be with her" Clyde counteracted Otis's accusations thereby riling him up the more.

"Shut up silly. Your plan is to deceive the Uren princess. I know your likes, so pretentious and fake, always looking for attention and a

    Nyx's POV I turned back and faced him squarely, "There's actually no need to go into details Clyde. You saw nothing, let it remain that way" I told him in a serious tone. "No, there's no way I can let such revelation slide like it is nothing. You are meant to be a werewolf Nyx but back there, your transformation was nothing close to a wolf. Your mythical being is different, in a good way though. I think you are a special princess" he uttered and I rolled my eyes inwardly. "You are not letting go of this discussion anytime soon, are you?" I mumbled and he shook his head negatively, a playful grin on his face. "I want to know everything Nyx. Besides, you said you needed a listening ear earlier today, something must be up with you and you know Princess, I'm always here for you" He pressed on and I sighed heavily. "Was that your mythical being just now? What creature are you?" He asked. "It's.. it's complicated" I managed to respond but Clyde still Persuaded to get me to explain be

    Nyx's POV We all retired to our various classes for learning. I made sure to be in class early enough so as not to get on Ms McMillan's bad side again. We were going to write a test on History and ethics just as she had stated in her last class. I settled comfortably on my desk and waited patiently for Ms. McMillan to show up for the tests so that I could get it over with. As if on cue, Ms McMillan walked inside the class alongside an older male teacher whose face was as stoic as that of Ms McMillan's. "Students, this is professor Merlinia and he will be assisting with the supervision of the tests today" She announced and gestured for the teacher to come forward. "I hope we can work together with ease?" The venerable wizard, Professor Merlinia, with a long flowing beard, stood at the front, ready to administer the examination. Ms McMillan stood at the farthest end of the classroom staring at us with hawk's eye. She made to poke her eyes with two of her fingers and pointing at

    Nyx's POV "Where is this place you speak of? Is it in the school compound? Outside the gates of Salvador or worse still in the human world?" I asked curiously and Liz grinned evilly. "This shows your interest, I will make arrangements for our stay and trust me, the location is no place you should be afraid of, I will go with you remember" she smirked and touched my shoulder, letting her hand brush across my chest as she took it away from my body. "How do I know I can trust you?" I squinted my eyes at her suspiciously and she chuckled. "I mean no harm, princess of the Uren pack. I just want the best for you but if you feel I'm not to be trusted, you can disregard my offer to show you how you can get answers to the puzzling questions in your head. But if you are curious about your true identity and the reason you were created a hybrid or worse still, how you came about to have the blood of an exiled Clan running in your veins, then I suggest you do what is right.

    Nyx's POV "I'm sure my relationship with Elrond is no news to you and you are well aware of the new development. I regret pushing Elrond away without giving him a chance at least and I have been trying to get to him to no avail. Elrond would not speak to me no matter how much I ask, he seems busy with his newfound girlfriend at all times and I feel left behind. I want to make things right between us even though we cannot be more than friends, I just can't continue to bear Elrond's cold shoulder towards me" Cindy complained and I gave her a cheeky grin. "So how exactly do you need my help because, from your explanation, this sounds like a 'You' problem, not a 'me' problem" I uttered, emphasizing on the you and me while wriggling two of my fingers in the air. "Nyx" Cindy whined. "What?" I returned with a slight chuckle, "How am I to help you?" "Talk to Elrond, please" she replied and I clicked my tongue. "That's not how it should be Vamprina," I told her "Don't call me that"

Besides, if there's any person that is in the right position to explain all that I am confused about and at best, provide me with all the support I need. Someone I can comfortably confide in without fear of being exposed, is Narek and since he had requested my presence, it would be best I go right away. "Urm, Cindy. I'm sorry I won't be going with you anymore, something came up and I have to sort things out, myself" I told Cindy whose face fell sadly. "Okay, I hope it's nothing serious" she was still concerned. I shook my head side to side while smiling brightly at her, "it's nothing I can't handle" "I guess I will be going on my own then" she muttered and I looped my arms with hers. "I'm counting on you because I trust you Cindy. Do a good job, don't appear shaky or shy. Just go straight to the point and remember to.." "Respect his decision, I got that Princess" she completed

    Nyx's POV Mates? How can that be? "You must be surprised Nyx but it is the fact dear. We are mated, that explains the connection between us" Narek stated and I gulped. "When.. how.. is that even possible?" I asked in pure confusion, staring at Narek weirdly. "It is Nyx, you are my mate" he repeated and I almost burst out laughing at how crazy that sounded to my hearing. "Narek, I am mated to Otis Agni. You witnessed our bonding, how is it possible that it is you I am mated to? What of Otis? What happens to him and our mate bond?" I asked, my eyes searching his face. Narek slowly took my hands and kissed them tenderly, "Trust me, I didn't expect you to immediately embrace this development Nyx, but there's nothing you or I can do. This is fate princess, we don't control it and can't tamper with it as well. It may sound strange to you but you are double-mated and the one who gets to mark you first obtains more of your love.

    Miss Pendleton's POV I paced around my suite, my right hand on my waist while I bit into my left fingers, deep in thought. "I have tried to get her to listen, Sylvia, your daughter is not so easy to deal with," I told my sister whose face was on the magnificent mirror in my room. "Well, you are not trying enough Gacia, time is ticking and I'm getting impatient. Don't give me that silly talk about how stubborn Nyx can be, she's just a child, you can easily handle her so why make stupid excuses to justify your sluggishness in one simple duty I put to you" Sylvia snarled angrily I eyed her, "You don't know Nyx anymore Sylvia, she is not the same timid girl you brought down here for me to take care of. She has gone wild Sylvia and makes her decision irrespective of the repercussion" I told her but she scoffed. "She has gone wild or you are starting to grow a soft spot for her? Perhaps, you are afraid of her now, that is why you do not want to get her down here by every means" Sylvi

    Nyx's POV I and Narin retired to bed later that day. We had just taken dinner and were currently lying on our separate beds. I was gazing at the ceiling, my head filled with thoughts on whether to tell Narin about my transformation. She has been the definition of a good friend and sister, I consider her special and important in my life so what's the big deal telling her all my darkest secrets? I turned to my side, "Narin", "Nyx" we called simultaneously and chuckled at each other. "You go first" I smiled. She pushed her face towards my bed, "can I come over?" She asked politely and I instantly scooted to create space for her to join me. "Of course" Narin went under my duvet and smiled brightly at me, "Brings memories of my times with Nahendra. We used to make tent houses with our bedcover in the room at night. I remember making ghostly sounds when the lights are out and making him scared out of his wits" she said with a sad chuckle. "Later on, I read stories to him and som

    Nyx's POV "Noooo" I yelled and fell to my knees. Ms. Toddleboar's warning resounded in my eardrums. "A war is coming and it is your fight. It is going to be a deadly one, you will lose your loved ones but at last, you shall be victorious. But you have to be ready and face all you meet, else you fall into the darkness and your ability taken away from you like it never existed in the first place" This was what she was speaking about, my eyes turned to Narek who was sprawled on the floor, his eyes held so much pain as he gazed into mine. Aman stood above him, panting heavily as blood trickled down his injured face. Clyde's tattoos and runes had finally wiped away from his skin and he fell limply to the floor, drained. Tears gushed out of my eyes as I clasped my hand over my mouth and cried bitterly. Aman moved away from Narek's side and joined Otis who was standing beside Sylvia. "No, no, no this can't be happening" I muttered breathlessly, running towards Narek who was hardly

    Nyx's POV "I came back as soon as I sensed you were out of your hiding after searching for you all over the woods. How dare you stress me out like that!" Sylvia scolded me. Her voice was coated in anger which she had bottled up in her chest. I rolled my eyes inwardly. "You ingrate, I have tried everything to explain things to you but you wouldn't adhere. In the long run, you too shall be rewarded greatly only if you and your aunt allowed this exercise to take place. But what did you two do instead? Invite your weak friends to stand up against us and now you are yelling for us to stop tormenting them" "I am no ingrate Sylvia and I wish to remind you that this mission will remain impossible as far as I am still alive and breathing" I retorted and she smiled darkly. "Even if it costs the life of your dear mate and friends?" She asked while raising her hands in the air and at the same time, a dark energy enveloped Otis, Narek, and Clyde, raising them high in the sky as they struggl

    Nyx's POV After some time of resting just like Clyde suggested, the antidote worked fervently and Claire bounced back to life in minutes. I was glad she was now safe but at the same time, I needed to make sure my mates, Narek and Otis were okay as well. "No Nyx, it's dangerous. I can't let you go out there alone" Clyde stopped me when I was about living our temporary hideout. "Then come with me. This is my battle Clyde and I won't be able to bear it if they lose their life in my place. Remember what happened in the case of Miss Pendleton, I wouldn't be able to bear losing another loved one to the hands of those evil beings" I returned stubbornly. He rubbed his face in frustration, "Still Nyx, I don't think it is right for you to come out to join the fight. I have been in a fight with Otis and I could tell you that with the ability he possesses, he will do well in taking care of the Sorcerers. Not to talk of Narek who is a master in the arts of magic, defense, and attacks" Clyde

  • Taming The Reaper's Heir   Chapter 138: My Vulnerable State

    Narek's POV The pain I felt from trying to break free from the barrier of radiant energy I was trapped in was agonizing and I roared loudly in frustration. My mind wandered back to Nyx who had run off long before now and Aman is back already. I wondered if she is safe and neither Aman nor Sylvia were able to get to her. Those sorcerers did not seem like they were going to give me some time to absorb the electrifying effects their cage was pushing into my skin as Gin formed some sort of dark ball and sent it my way. This was me in my vulnerable state, I was bound and unable to easily break free from the cocoon they put their hands together to create. It was a powerful one that was sizzling with electric fury and threatening to burn my skin as soon as I attempt breaking away. The dark ball penetrated into my chest and I howled out in pain, the effect constricting my heart in such a painful manner, I thought he was going to pull it out of my body. Odin did not seem like he was don

    Otis's POV The Sorcerer who was standing just before Narek's frail body fell to the floor due to the impact of my wolf's collision with him and the older one instantly rushed to his side to help him up. I made my way to Narek's side, still in my wolf form, and licked his wounds to express my concern. He squinted his eyes at me, trying to make out my identity and when he did, he released a frustrated sigh. "Otis, you still came after all I told you" he grumbled and groaned in pain, "Nyx, have you seen her anywhere?" He managed to ask amidst the growl that was coming from his throat. Narek's bones began to crack and his skin color began to change, I could tell he was on the verge of transformation, and quickly stepped away from him. I had just taken four steps backward when my feet were suddenly swept off the floor but I was quick to regain my composure due to Xavier's inner strength and resilience. My eyes met with that of the older Sorcerer who was glaring at me coldly. He se

    Narek's POV Once Nyx began running away from the evil sorcerers for safety, I raised my staff to the sky, my eyes gleaming with a mix of determination and a hint of uncertainty. The elders and late Miss Pendleton's sister sure were daring but I wouldn't want to appear frightened or intimidated by the presence. I would do all it takes to make sure Nyx is safe from them, even if it means fighting them off with my very last strength. "He will be easy to handle, Go on Sylvia. Get your daughter back to us, Gin can go with you" The older-looking elder in their midst stated. "No, I am going to fight him instead. He made a fool out of me earlier but it's high time I put him in his place" Gin snarled while glaring daggers at me. "I'm fine on my own Odin, I can find my daughter and bring her back without the help of anyone, let alone a weakling" Sylvia eyed Gin before snapping her fingers and disappearing into the air. "Good then, I guess it's worth a show" Odin cackled mischievously set

    Nyx's POV With a swift speed, I never expected to possess, I grabbed Aunt Gacia and fell to the floor with her in my arms. Her face became pale in seconds and tears dropped from my eyes. She slowly reached for my face and wiped my tears away, smiling sadly. "That's him, the intruder!" One of the elders growled as he made to attack Narek who fought back with matching strength while the others stood on standby and watched on. "No, please don't die on me Aunt, we need to escape here together" I cried loudly, pulling her to my bosom. Her bleeding wound was already staining my hands but I did not mind. "Nyx, you must go now" she coughed, dark blood spurting out of her mouth. "No, I'm not going anywhere without you" I returned stubbornly, struggling to get her to stand on her feet. "Stop being stupid Nyx and save yourself" She clasped my hand, staring right into my eyes in pure concern. "I'm sorry I couldn't do much to help you but I believe it is not over until it is over. You mu

    Nyx's POV "Garcia, haven't we waited long enough? Why is it taking so long to change?" The grumpy elder, Aman complained after he had asked Aunt Garcia to change her outfit to no avail. "Thank you Aunt" I whispered to her ear after she had broken the news about Narek coming to my rescue to me. She only squeezed my hand lovingly, a satisfied glint in her eyes, "anytime niece". Sylvia noticed the both of us and cast Garcia a warning glance, Miss Pendleton did not seem bothered by it anyways. "Garcia, a word" Mother requested, slowly moving away from the table where I lay and pulling Aunt Garcia alongside her. "Not again, why do you ladies always find a way to slow us down in everything" "Enough Aman, let the sisters talk" the Elder with the ancient book reprimanded grumpy Aman for always complaining. "What an insatiable being" I muttered under my breath as I glared at him from behind. I was certain this was Aunt Gacia's way of stalling them and I was grateful things were falling

    Narek's POV I barged into Miss Pendleton's office, my fist clenched in anger and my face stoic and unsmiling. Her back was turned against me as she stood before the window at the back of her desk. Staring outside the bustling surroundings of the school, she sipped from the green mug she was holding in her hands. "What is this I hear about Nyx? She was abducted right under your nose and there's nothing you are doing to see to her return?" I asked in rage, trying my best to keep myself together and not cause a ruckus. Unlike me, miss Pendleton was at peace and did not seem so worried about anything. "Did they snitch on me already?" She chortled instead and sipped from her mug, "Whom did you hear about this from? Narin Oregon, her roommate or Otis Agni, Nyx's mate?" "That is not what is important at the moment Miss Pendleton" I returned through gritted teeth while tightening my hands which was in a fist. "I understand they are worried about her. Why wouldn't they? Nyx conside
