Nyx’s POVI got back to the dormitory to meet the door slightly ajar. My hair rose and my eyes squinted in suspicions.I walked into the room and a gasp escaped my lips, “what the heck happened here?” I asked rhetorically, my eyes scanning the dorm room I share with Narin which was not looking the same. As a matter of fact, everywhere was disarranged like someone made a run in the room.Then it hit me, “Did Narin really leave?” I muttered within myself and picked up my phone to hear her reasons for leaving.I dialed her line to find her phone ringing on her side table. She did not leave with her phone and I know Narin well that she cannot forget her phone for any reason. Something doesn’t feel right here. “Narin!” I began to call her name but she did not seem close. Narin seemed to have disappeared into thin air because no matter how hard I shouted her name, she was not answering. I bit my fingers worriedly and passed about our room deep in thoughts, “where could she be? Narin is not
Nyx's POVI paced about our room, waiting for Clyde to show up so that we can go find Narin. The moon was starting to fade into the sky and my anxiety seemed to increase as minutes pass by.My phone pinged with a notification and I dashed outside without checking what the message entailed.Clyde stood outside the dormitory with Gus and Elrond at his sides. They were all in huge coats to cover up from the cold but Clyde's looked lighter, his muscles were almost bulging out of his clothes."Princess! Are you ok?" He asked in concern as soon as he saw me and rushed to my sides to hold me to himself."I'm fine Clyde, if there is anyone that isn't, then it's Narin" I replied and turned to the rest, "thank you, guys, for coming" I smiled in appreciation."No biggie, princess", Elrond replied with a smile."Narin is one of us, so it's only right we ensure her safety" Gus returned with a shrug."Yea, she's a rebel and the rebels got each other's back" Clyde smiled and threw his hands across
Nyx's POVWe all stared at Otis as he had suddenly grown horns."You did not do that" Cindy muttered in disbelief."Who gave you the right to do that Otis?" Gus requested while folding his hands across his chest. "I mean, you are a student like every one of us here, so why do you think you have the right to throw any student into the dungeon?" He added."The dungeon, do you know the weight of what you have done? How dare you throw a student into that dumb hole, you dipshit!" Clyde yelled in Otis's face."Don't you dare yell at me freak! I can do whatever I want because I am in charge here not you!" Otis yelled back, his fangs bared and his wolf ready to take over.Clyde scoffed, "There you go again werewolf, feeling all mighty and above others because of what? You are a Lycan and the Alpha of your pack? Or the fact that you can shapeshift, heal quickly and that you are fast? Come on Otis, we all are supernatural and we possess the same ability, so stop feeling so special and face r
Nyx's POV"What the heck? What just happened?"I thought I was the only one that felt that pressure. What was it anyways?" I heard murmurs around and swallowed heavily. I felt like something left me again and staggered weakly."Geez Nyx, what was that all about?" Cindy asked, dusting her body from the dust it accumulated while she was on the floor."It was you Nyx, you caused that huge whirlwind to spin us away" Gus muttered in disbelief.I chuckled nervously, "What are you guys talking about?" I let out a faux smile, "I did nothing""My brain can't possibly be telling me what my eyes didn't see. Gus is right, you anchored the strong wind" Elrond agreed with Gus.I shook my head, "trust me guys, you might be seeing the wrong things" "Not when two to three different persons testified to the same thing. It's definitely not a illusion but real of course" Greg stated I shook my head defiantly, "I did none of these you are saying, you guys have to believe me""You can fool anyone here b
Nyx's POVThe rebels helped take Narin back to the dorm. Cindy assisted me in taking her to our room.Narin was still shivering in fear and I felt great pity for her. "Poor girl, why did she even leave the room past curfew to fall into Otis's trap and now she's shivering like a drenched cat?Never knew that an evil place could reduce a strong figure into a visibly shakey and traumatized mess" Cindy sighed and patted my back."You take care Nyx, I'll see you later" Cindy smiled and dashed out of the dormitory at a swift speed."Must be good to be fast as a vamp. She could go places in a split second" I muttered and bolted our room door. I prepared something warm and made Narin drink it to feel better. She had already stopped shivering and was now sweating profusely.Most importantly, she was back to her normal self."Nyx?" She called out and I instantly rushed to her side."Narin, I'm sorry I didn't come sooner. I was afraid of the dark, the thought of being devoured and all that hau
Nyx's POVClasses went by fast and soon it was our lunch break. I walked down to the cafeteria alone while listening to the song booming from my ear pods and chewing gum.The picture Otis and his goons uploaded yesterday was still trending and the students were dropping their terrible comments and making fun of me but it did not even move me.As a matter of fact, I remained repellent of their snarky comments, it did not even have a single effect on me and I loved the feeling.I scuttled my way into the cafeteria with minimal struggle, courtesy of the colourful dent on my identity presently.No one would like to associate with the piss queen, and so I got all the space I wanted the moment I stepped foot into the cafeteria.I walked straight to the food counter to place my order, "Hello, Ms. Zaffron", I greeted the lady on the counter cheerfully.She returned my energy, "Princess, the usual?" I shook my head, "No I want to go for a change today. Do you have suggestions?""How about so
Otis's POVI kept throwing glares at the table Where Nyx and her friends sat eating and discussing jovially.I felt jealous, watching Nyx so free with that girly demigod, I hated the fact that he was close to her. Their laughter rang out again, and I growled lowly, "I hate him", I spat, referring to Clyde Vassas."I'm sure the feeling is mutual between the both of you" Greg supported "Yea, that fight yesterday said it all" Dylan groaned and stretched his neck painfully, "I can't feel my head anymore" he uttered with a sad frown."Come to think of it, Otis, what does it seem like you are suddenly all over Nyx again? Are you sure you wouldn't Chicken out on our plans?" Marc joined the discussion."Of course not, why do you think I would opt out of making Nyx Uren pay for making me a laughing stock in front of the whole school?""Well, because, few minutes ago, you were ogling at her" Dylan muttered."More like monitoring her" Benson mumbled under his breath."That reminds me Benson, y
Nyx's POVWe were still seated around a table in the cafeteria, discussing, laughing loudly and making fun of one another when the loudspeaker in the room went on."Hello, students" Miss Pendleton's voice came on the line and everyone paid rapt attention."I trust the day is going by just fine, Can Miss Nyx Uren come over to my office this instant?" She requested, and the line went off."Yoo piss queen! You should go see the Principal before you land into bigger trouble" one of the students bellowed and everyone burst out laughing.Clyde was about to confront him but Narin stopped him, "let me take care of this" she smirked and waved her wand in the air.The boy that just mocked me shook hands with his friends while keeping his whole teeth on display. He was about to sip from his cup, only to scream out in horror and fall to the floor butt down, dragging attention to himself.A green toad hopped out of his cup, causing the whole students to gag in disgust.We did our best to keep our
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
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
