Nyx saw how Lucien looked away from her. He didn't look like he was in the mood for this topic.
"Why do you want to know what type of monster I am? So you can find a weakness to kill me or rather kill me yourself" Lucien spat viciously as he pushed her away from him. Creating distance between them, nyx looked at Lucien and couldn't help but sigh.
Why was he so worked up about a simple question she had asked. He could just say it's none of her business.
"Get out!" Lucien yelled at nyx making her flinch. She looked at him and noticed his eyes had a crescent moon encased in them. She knew it was the right time for her to leave, casting him one last gaze, she walked out of the room.
Lucien sat on his chair, shaking his head. He had never lost his cool by that question but with nyx he didn't know what had come over him that made him yell.
He was supposed to make her warm up to him so they could have a child but every time they were having a good time, something would always come along as ruin their special moment.
From tonight till the next morning, he wouldn't be able to see her till the next day and during their wedding ceremony. He ran his fingers through his hair as he opened the documents on his table. He started working trying to take his mind off nyx, for the moment.
************
As the day progressed, various chariot's and wagon's rolled into the castle, the castle had about ten different buildings for different purposes. The two largest piece was the main castle and the housing building which was like an inn but large with different rooms.
Nyx was in her room watching the huge wagon's roll into the castle. She half hoped that her parents would at least show up but her hopes were a tad to high, because she knew that they didn't care about her and they didn't give a frick about her.
"My lady, are you okay?" Millie who had just arrived with a glass of orange juice and scones asked nyx. Ever since she got back from the king's office she had been moody and Millie wondered why.
"What kind of creature are you Millie?" Nyx asked, sh knew she would get an outburst as she experienced with Lucien but at least, Millie might tell her why the question was so sensitive.
"Oh. I'm a dark fae, but we are rare to find. Our type aren't that strong but it depends on your lineage. Why?" Millie asked as Nyx went quiet for a while. Fae's were also known as fairy's if she was thinking well.
"I asked the king that question and he yelled at me" Nyx said sadly, she was greatly hurt that a man who had been so kind in the start was actually this harsh.
"The king doesn't like speaking about that topic as I would advise you never speak of it again" Millie said seriously as nyx turned to look at her confused.
What did she mean by that? And why did the whole topic sound so serious?.
"Why?" Nyx couldn't help but ask as Millie took a seat. Nyx had told Millie to be comfortable with her since they were now closer.
"I don't know the full story but king Lucien hates that topic" Millie said as nyx nodded in understanding, she needed to stop provoking people especially those who are close to her.
A figure could be seen walking down the hall, her emerald green dress, swept the floor and gave it an amazing glow. Her blonde hair that flowed down her shoulders, her perfume smelt like sandalwood and she carried an aura of wealth and elegance as she walked.
Nyx stared at the mysterious as she approached her, she had stepped out of her room to search for Millie when the scent of a strong cologne attracted her.
"Who are you?" Nyx blurted out as the lady stopped walking, she smiled at Nyx as she cleared her throat.
"You can call me princess Emily, I'm searching for king Lucien but I lost my way. I'm part of the wedding guests who just arrived" Emily said, blinking coquettishly at nyx who didn't understand why a wedding guest would be looking for king.
"Oh, I'm Queen Nyx. King Lucien is currently in his study, if you can give me a second to change we could head off to find him" nyx said, she saw how Emily's perfect composure falter when she heard the word 'Queen'. Nyx quickly flew into her room, changed into something simple along with flat shoes, she pulled her hair into a ponytail and soon set off with Emily to Lucien's study.
Nyx glanced at emily secretly, numerous of times. Emily just stayed quiet as she watched the little girl in front of her with keen interest and envy.
"Here we are" nyx announced as she smiled at the guards standing in front.
"My queen, princess Emily" the guards greeted as they opened the door for them. Nyx was the first to go in with Emily behind her, nyx threw herself into Lucien's arm as she giggled.
"Hubby boo" she cooed in front of Emily and Lucien as she kissed his lips briefly. Lucien who was on a call, paused as he looked at her, shocked and pleased a bit by her words. It was then he noticed Emily who was standing few feets away.
"What are you doing here?" Lucien asked as he pulled her off him, still keeping his hand on her waist.
"Uhm, princess Emily asked to see you so I decided to bring her to my husband" Nyx said, her words might sound sweet and pleasing but they were vicious and insulting.
"Long time no see Lucien" Emily said, her voice had turned sly and cute, it made Nyx cringe inwardly.
"I didn't remember inviting you" Lucien said, his voice cold and unmoving as he stared at her.
