"His name is not important, my beloved is a strong leader who will not take a warning about one of his men lightly."

The annoyed look in his eyes turned into one of denial, it was a calculated move on Amalthea's part, she kept her words ambiguous enough to test his waters, she was content to see that her smart pair did not trust that man of his, not completely anyway.

'His instinct is as faultless as ever.'

"… You dare cause a rift between two men of the same blood? Do you plan on manipulating him enough until you put him up against me? A plan worthy of the devils, like you."

Her pair pushed himself up, then spat next to her cross, a couple of decades old sadness was evident when she tested what had been distorting his magnetic field.

'My pair is aware of the other man's deceit.'

As soon as her pair stormed away from her, and before she could even think, a particular element sang to her from the earth's core, it offered her its main medium and requested an accord.

    The two nymphs went back to trusting their essence to the earth, it gracefully carried them until they reached their heiress. After both had successfully accumulated in front of the cross, their spirit forms screamed in agony at the disagreeable sight, and the earth beneath Meliae cracked with her anger. The president who sat in his office, with a view of his nymph on her cross, also felt the slight earthquake."What is she up to now?"Amalthea quickly pulled both her followers into a mental connection, she did not want her pair to know what was going on, she was still in her human form for him to see her, and her followers were invisible to his human eyes.'Meli! Get your anger under control!''How could you let this happen to you…'Meliae's white eyes shone dangerously.

    "YOU…!", "MELIAE!" Anna got the room's attention when her white eyes shone dangerously, a lot like Meliae's eyes were doing just a short while ago. Amalthea was the only one who was not surprised by her outburst, she could sense her becoming a ticking bomb for a few moments now, she knew her follower was about to explode at any second. "THE QUEEN OF NYMPHS HAS AN OFFER TO MAKE TO THE PRESIDENT, NOW EVERYONE BE QUIET AND HEAR OUT WHAT SHE HAD TO SAY." Everyone refrained from commenting afterward, Amalthea had seen it before, the quiet ones always scared a crowd whenever they lost it. She waved a hand to close the hole that was under her pair's feet and whispered to her wind to gently place him down. She was happy, for the second time just now, to witness his cousin visibly relax after her pair was back on the ground and out of harm's way.

    One thing was for sure, Amalthea's pair was incredibly smart. After the two nymphs and the heiress received Hylas's counteroffer, Amalthea asked herself one question.'Do I trust him?'The answer to her question was easy, the answer to her question was hard.'No, I do not'The nymph that he had in his arms during their first embrace, the one that bared her neck fully for him and wished their fall from the sky to last an eternity, that nymph was no more. While the significance of a nymph baring her neck to someone had nothing to do with survival, it had everything to do with the power of will, and surrender.It all came down to one thing and one thing alone. The nymph's sacred blood when they were in their human forms. To taste a nymph's blood was to have an ultimate power to order her, it was a lot like knowing a medium's name.Amalthea had longed since wondered what caused nature to come up with such a defect. Why would there be an option for creatures to rule over one another like t

TAKE ADRIAN AND HIS DAUGHTER OUTSIDE NOW!"While Alexander and Adrian complied without questions asked, Anna did not move until she locked eyes with her heiress and saw the approval in them, Amalthea felt her pair's need to be left alone with her, she felt how overwhelmed he was, and she felt his insecurities, she wished she could assure him while maintaining her dignity, without depleting her life-force that started wavering as it followed the direction the presidents' thoughts were taking him. He only talked to her once they were left alone in his office."How dare you hurt for another... after you shamelessly proposed to me, hm?"He closed the distance between them, his hand finding the roots of the hair over her neck again, he felt pure exhilaration at the feeling of her satin hair between his fingers, he twisted her black locks and pulled on her

    “You ask for the impossible. I cannot be separated from you,” Nereus’s voice was grave. And he was lying bluntly. Amalthea felt him through and through within her core, she knew that he understood. It was just too difficult to let go of the dreams he had for their eternity. “It is what it is, Nereus. I did not choose the shape I was born into.” She was being hard on him because that was what he needed to hear from her right now. He wanted to feel differently about things, but he was filled with an immeasurable amount of acceptance of the fact that she has chosen not to stay in Atlantis with him. He looked at her for a long moment, “ Is this your doing?” She smiled knowingly at him. “Oh? What are you talking about?” Nereus sighed for long. Amalthea had become more than immortal, her physical shape testifies to that as well, and the fact that she was keeping it on her meant that she wanted everyone to respect the upgraded level that she had reached.

    The underground which used to be a place of darkness and inward illumination made a complete transformation. It was not only about the sun that shone in the mornings and then mimicked the soft glow of the moon at night.

    Phosphorus and Hesperus had been sleeping for four days.It was not natural for immortal children to sleep that extra mortal day.Amalthea and Arethusa stood anxiously by the crib of the immortal children. Both babies looked the size of a one-year-old human baby. Apart from the striking opposite hair color the babies had, their features were almost the same.“Beautiful,” Amalthea said as she brushed Phosphorus’s white hair away from his forehead. Then she brushed the back of her hand over Hesperus’s black hair.“Of course they are, they look exactly like you, darling,” Arethusa whispered.“But mother, why do they insist on sleeping for so long?” Amalthea asked her mother, starting to get more anxious by the mortal second now.“Worry not, my dear. Listen to your inner nymph, Amalthea. Do you not feel their overwhelming energy? How magnificently strong they both are?

    The immortal females sat in Amalthea’s chambers for the longest time that day.“Maybe we have thought about it too much that no ideas will come anymore,” Arethusa complained.It was an impossible criterion to abide by. Two adjectives that were the opposite of each other, yet they completed one another and they were both good!‘Honestly, she is asking for a bit too much if not asking for the impossible altogether!’ Arethusa thought to herself when she saw the stubborn look on her daughter’s face.‘She was always extremely persistent,’ Arethusa admired her daughter on the inside.Amalthea was always like this, in fact, it was the first characteristic that she exhibited during her month of maturity, when she wanted to do something, she followed through with it. Unlike the immortal children that knew by instinct that when you get to live an eternity, what did not happen now was bound to happen at a later date. “You were always unique, my darling,” Arethusa caressed her daughter’s long bl

She held her as tight as she could.“I am so sorry for coming so late I wanted to go down immediately, and I kept waiting for a fire medium to come but they never did,” she threw a subtle accusation at the fire king.‘Some things never change’ Amalthea thought to herself as she looked at her mother’s anxious face. She knew that her mother loved her dearly, she most likely cherished her over everything else in the entire universe, but had her mother thought for a couple of seconds, or even paused to consider how Amalthea’s voice made a come back. She would have known that it was all due to the fire essence curing her.Her mother’s face finally registered her daughter's quiet complaints.“How… was he… did he manage to cure you?” She asked.When Arethusa heard her daughter’s voice that she lost the day before after immortal childbirth, she had high hopes
