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. It is also believed that you will live longer with
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
Narek's POV It was lunch break and I had already finished off my last class for the day. I missed having Nyx around and wondered what she might be up to, if she would be less busy, or perhaps, agree to hang out. I walked down the hallway, straining from time to time to catch a glimpse of Nyx among the bustling students to no avail. I was about to give up hope when my eyes suddenly caught sight of her at one corner of the cafeteria, dining with her friends. I recognized one of them as Clyde and clenched my hands jealously. Not wanting to let my anger get the best of me, I stood at one place watching Nyx lovingly as she ate and laughed without worries. "She is an epitome of beauty and brains, isn't she?" I heard someone ask beside me and cleared my throat distractingly. I didn't remember I was ogling at her for so long and smiling at the same time. I raised my eyes to see the person who had spoken to me and instantly bowed politely in respect to the older teacher standing beside
Nyx's POV I had just invited Otis as well as Clyde to come watch my transformation and they were equally happy for me. The countdown to the moment the moon while showing up in the sky in its full glory was drawing near and my excitement was increasing. I had just walked into another hallway on my way to my last class when I felt a pair of hands pull me aside. "Liz" I rolled my eyes, "Cindy was right after all, why do you always act like a freak and tend to scare people away all the time? What do you even want with me?" I snapped but she choose to ignore my questions. "I haven't heard from you Nyx, have you finally come up with a decision?" She requested and I struggled out of her hold. "Yes and my answer is a big No, I am going nowhere with you leech. As a matter of fact, I have gotten all the answers I require so I'm sorry your services are not needed anymore. Excuse me" I retorted and tried to leave her sight. She stopped me by placing an arm in front of me, an evil smirk st
Nyx's POVThe awaited day finally came and I couldn't be happier. Aunt Gacia had come by earlier that afternoon to drop off the beautiful gown she had purchased for me just for this very occasion.From time to time, Mrs Toddleboar's warning resounded in my ears and I could help but feel terrified of what lay ahead of me. But I had Narek by my side, he always reassured me that all will be well. Otis could as well feel my restlessness and offered me warmth the best way he could.Narin helped me put my hair in place, she grinned at me widely. "You are so beautiful Nyx" she complimented and took out a handmade bracelet she made from cowries and pearl beads."I made it just for you as a congratulatory token into your new phase of life," she said shyly and I felt my eyes water. I slowly took it from her hands and wore it around my wrist, "it's beautiful" I muttered, staring at my wrist in admiration."Thank you so much, Narin, for all you do. I appreciate you dearly" I said appreciatively
Nyx's POV It was both exciting and fun to run around with Otis in our non-human form. Clyde was not kidding when he revealed that I would be so tired by the time I had finished transforming because heck was I so weak and unable to lift a finger after the run. Otis licked my ear and I snuggled into his body feeling slightly better. We returned to the rock to find just Clyde with the box of goodies he told me about. I asked Claire to let me return to my usual self and Clyde immediately took his eyes away since I was naked. He stretched my gown towards, his hands covering his eyes. I chuckled at how cute he was being and slowly took the gown from him and draping it over my body. "So, where is everyone?" I requested, sitting beside him and taking a slice out of the pizza before. Otis returned to his normal state as well and sat beside me. I offered him some snacks which he accepted with a warm smile and bit into his hungrily. I turned to Clyde, "You're not answering" I remind
Narin's POV My heart pounded in my chest as I struggled against the tight restraints that bound me to the cold, metallic chair. The vampire who had barged inside the room and attacked me fiercely was smirking menacingly as she forced a gag around my lips. I thrashed and struggled with the restraints again but she had tied it too tight that I was certain my skin was starting to get ripped. "Now be a good girl Narin and wait in there till your roommate arrives, only then will you be rescued" she cackled evilly while pulling the door open and dragging all the clothes in the wardrobe, out of the hanger like a maniac. She dumped them carelessly on the bed causing some of the clothes to litter around the room. Her eyes met mine and she smirked with a wicked glint in her bright red orbs. "What? You have something to say?" She asked in an almost sweet voice that caused shivers to run down my spine. "Ok, I will let you speak since you are being so respectful," she said with a smirk and
