Third update for the day🙌

Lycus's pov

"Nyx…" Her name left my lips in a soft Call as a smile formed on them, "Nyx." I called again but she didn't stop screaming. She sat up on the bed clawing at me as I tried to hold her still. She suddenly became stronger as she trashed around the bed.

"Get away from me!" She yelled not being able to meet my eye, "Leave me alone!"

"Nyx, it's me Lycus." I pleaded softly with her as I tried to avoid her hits, "Calm down please."

The doors opened and in came Xerxes, My mother, Willow, Andros, and Amara. They rushed into the room looking horrified as her screams increased. Just then she slipped away from my grasp, rushed over to Amara, picked her up, and ran to the corner of the room. She clutched onto Amara tightly as she gave us threatening looks, "Stay away from me." She yelled pointing at me and my heart fell. It was almost like she didn't recognize me, like I was a stranger, "Stay away from me, you monster!"

"What is going on?!" I faced Xerxes yelling at him, "Do something about this!" I was getting hurt and angry at the fact that my mate didn't want me, even Spyro had begun to whine in my head.

"Did you do anything to her?" My mum turned to me with an accusing look, "What did you do?"

"Fuck!" I groaned, "I didn't do shit to her, she just started acting crazy."

"Are you sure?" Andros asked me and all I wanted to do was to pounce on his and mutilate his annoying face with my claws.

"Yes, I am!" I gritted, "I did nothing."

"Then what's wrong with her?" Willow asked turning back to look at Nyx. She was still hurdled close to the wall, hugging her whimpering daughter tightly and looking around like someone was threatening her life.

"Calm down Nyx…" Andros tried to pacify her. He walked towards her and I could see her heaving shoulders had begun to relax, jealousy tore through me. He walked up to her and pulled her into a hug.

Nyx's Pov.

Screaming wasn't the first thing I wanted to do when I woke up because I wasn't expecting to see his face. I didn't even expect to wake up in the first place. I wanted to be dead.

I leaned into the familiar embrace of Andros as I tried to calm down from my high. I could feel lycus's jealousy and intense anger but at this point, I didn't care. He had another, he should go and find comfort in her.

A deep growl ripped through the room and in an instant Andros was ripped away from me and was being slammed on the floor repeatedly.

"Don't you dare touch what is mine!" He growled as he continued his assault. I dropped a very frightened Amara before rushing to his side as talks from other people in the room had failed to calm him down, "She's fucking mine!"

I managed to pull him away from him before landing a slap across his face. Everywhere went silent at my action even Lycus looked stunned reeling from the effect of my hit.

"Are you okay?" I asked helping a bleeding Andros to his feet, "Gosh, I am so sorry."

"It's fine." He grimaced as he stood straight clutching to his bleeding nose, "Nothing I can't handle."

"Nyx…" Lycus called out to me and I snapped my head in his direction glaring daggers at him, "I…"

"How dare you?!" I growled at him stopping his words, "You are sick!" I spat.

I went up to him and pushed him backward, "You tell me you want me to while you mate with another woman immediately, what the fuck do you want from me?!" I yelled as angry tears threatened to spill, "Stop playing with me!"

"I did not…"

"Save it!" I growled, "Don't tell me any more lies, I do not want to hear a word from you!" I screamed, "I hate you!"

His face fell in hurt at my words but I had no remorse in me. I was angry, if there was a word worse than anger I'd use it to qualify my emotions. It was time for me to stand up for myself and stop being pushed around.

"You do not mean that." He said, his tone a silent plea. His eyes searched me as if trying to get hidden meanings in my words.

"Let's see, you locked me in a cell, called me good for nothing, pleased me, hurt me, took me out, raised my hopes high only to mate with another person, so yes Lycus! I hate you and I wish I had never met you!" I roared with rage and he was taken aback for a moment. The room was still silent as if it was just us in it, "I want you to get out!"

"Nyx, I need a second chance." He pleaded, "I will do anything, just hear me out."

"Hell no! I have given you too many chances." I yelled at him, "I want you gone, go and mate with your worthy beta and leave me the fuck alone."

He seemed to be having an inner battle with himself before grabbing me by the shoulders and pulling me close to him, "I understand that you are angry." He whispered in my ear causing tingles to travel down my spine.

I gulped hating that I reacted to his touch, stop reacting you horny whore!

"I will give you time but mark me you will be mine soon." His voice was low but threatening and with that, he stormed out of the room leaving me and the rest behind.

That night after a long talk with Andros and Helena putting me to bed. A bouquet of silver roses was brought to me. I put them in the flower pot as usual and laid back on my bed.

Thoughts of Andros telling me about how the mating ceremony was a flop floated in my head. Does he like me?

The question resounded in my head and I turned over to off the bed lamp with a smile.

I fell asleep that night with thoughts of avoiding Lycus and giving Andros a chance to love me.
