Novel & Cerita Son Of Nyx

"Does he even know I'm his son? When I had two ribs broken, you know what he said? He said, 'Looks like the lesson hasn't sunk in yet.'" My mother opened her mouth and closed it again, nothing coming out. I turned to go. "You should leave." She grabbed my arm. "Ryan, I'm begging you. Chloe's leg is broken, Derek's disappeared, your father's lying in a hospital bed, and I can't hold this together anymore."

Sure enough, after only two seconds of hesitation, he stepped forward unhurriedly and cleared his throat. "You're all mistaken. Eloise Lloyd is not my son's mother. She's only..." He paused, his gaze falling tenderly on Samantha. "She's only the nanny I hired for my son. Samantha Yates is my son's real mother." A nanny? I froze, feeling myself going numb. Victor and I had been together since college. We had been through thick and thin for ten years. When his business failed and he fell into debt, I even fought with my father for his sake. When his frequent social drinking gave him stomach problems, I woke up at 5:00 am every day to make him a nourishing stew.

“Hear me. I didn’t call you for judgment, or for permission. I called because the Continuum reached forward, into the future, and put their hands on a child who wasn’t theirs to claim.” The woman’s eyes darkened. There, at last, was something like interest—a flicker of caution, perhaps even empathy. “So,” she murmured, “they’ve chosen inheritance over tradition. They want to rewrite what comes next.” Nyxara’s voice dropped, steel and ice. “Help them, and you lose whatever mercy I have. Stand with me, you keep your freedom. But try to use me—try to shape me into another tool for your ancient wars—and I promise you this: I will erase you. All of you.”

"Fine then, I'll tell you! I want to join your little crusade against Erebus as an emisary!" "What!?" He asked confused. Demons were forever loyal to master of darkness, they follow him doing his every command. "You are right to be surprised. See some of my siblings are tired of my father's eternal hold over us and want freedom.. " "Wait, father!?" He asked gripping the sword tighter. The demon not liking the interruption one bit but didn't take it to heart. He stood from the stair case. "I am sorry we haven't properly met. I am Thanatos son of Erebus!" He gave a mock bow rising with an expression that opposed Grey's. One of total amusement.

[Hyacinth] The room is filled with the sound of chanting. Nobody has noticed Slate and me yet, which is good. We don't want them to see us. We need to save our people. If we are lucky, we can make quick work of this and save our pack. And our son, who is at the center of it all. He is the source of their spell. I can see the energy being drawn from him like the witches are drinking his soul. Slate squeezes my hand and through our link shows me an image of what we must do. The me from before all of this would have hesitated, but now I know that hesitation will just lead to more heartbreak and pain for everyone.

My father’s voice, cold and clear in my ear. “Kayden has gone soft. He’s forgotten his purpose. He’s chosen her. So it falls to you, daughter. Finish what he started. End Nyx tonight, at the gala. Do this, and you will finally earn the power I promised. Your place beside me as Alpha King is waiting.” I’d been silent for so long he’d asked if I was still there. I’d said yes.

“To rise, you must burn. To rule, you must bleed.” Nyx’s POV — Ashborn Path, Second Trial The obsidian mirror loomed ahead of me, tall as a tower, smooth as still water, and twice as cold. My name was carved beneath the reflection in letters too sharp to have been chiseled by hand. NYX LUMINA GRAY Daughter of Flame and Storm Fell before the Second Dawn I stared into it. My reflection stared back—smaller, quieter, afraid. Not the version of me that fought shadow beasts or survived the first Phoenix Trial. This one looked like she was already fading.

When I realized my soulmate Darius was still hung up on his former lover Cassia and her child, I started teaching our son to call him "Lord Darius." That night, Theo accidentally stepped into a thorn trap set by forest nymphs. He was poisoned by a minor curse that sent his magic spiraling out of control and plunged him into darkness. But Darius turned and left because Cassia called him on his messaging crystal late at night. I touched my son's forehead as his divine aura dimmed from the pain, and made him say, "Goodbye, Lord." On Theo's birthday, Darius skipped our celebration because Cassia tearfully complained that her child needed a father. I didn't say much. I just had little Theo e

I just entered a taxi real quick. Memories flooded me as I sat in the car. All the moments spent with Jeremy.Jeremy was tall with dark brown hair, a sharp jawline with a hint of stubble.His hazel-green eyes were my favorite features and his broad shoulders with bulky muscles. He was his father’s only son in charge of the multi billion dollar business across the majority of the states.

he said, "is that your father did not die. He *left.* Returned to his realm when the Moon Goddess discovered their union and threatened to unmake him completely. Liora made him promise never to return. Never to contact you. To let you live as a wolf, not a—" He paused. "—not a *hybrid.*" Luna's crescent flared brighter. "Hybrid," she repeated coldly. "You are saying my father was not wolf." "No," Nyx agreed. "He was not." "Then what was he?" Luna demanded. Nyx held her gaze. "Demon," he said simply. The word hit like a physical blow. Luna actually *stepped back.* Around them, the gathered wolves erupted—snarls, shouts, weapons being drawn.
