The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

The next day, at Lord Helion’s palace,

Two female servants were seen walking towards the Moon Goddess’ room. The atmosphere in the palace was always quiet and still, so if there was a suspicious sound, they would immediately know unless the intruder was skilled at using strong magic, which could manipulate the situation.

Not long after, the two female servants arrived at their destination, and one of the two servants took the initiative to knock on the door, saying, “Goddess Atvertha. It is us. We will help you to get ready.”

There was no response inside the room like the violet-eyed girl usually did, so the same maid repeated this action three times. This incident aroused suspicion in the two servants who had been sent by the Sun Goddess, so they looked at each other as if asking for each other’s opinion. “How is it? Goddess Atvertha did not answer either. Should we report to Goddess Avtexia?”

Her friend made a suggestion, even though she herself was not sure whether this action would succeed or fail. “What if I knock on the door now? If the situation is still the same six times later, then we have to face Goddess Avtexia. The important thing is that we have carried out our duties.”

The first knocker thought this idea was good, so she nodded as soon as possible. “Okay. I agree. Now, you can try to knock on the door.”

A brunette-haired girl started doing the same thing as her friend, and she did it six times. However, there was no reaction from Armen Faustus Lugthna’s lover again, so she suspected that something had happened to the virgin goddess. She turned to her colleague. “This is weird. I feel like something is wrong with the Goddess Atvertha. We have to complain to the Sun Goddess.”

Without further ado, the two female servants left there. Their expressions looked tense and afraid because they felt something strange about the behaviour of the only daughter of the couple, Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia. What happened to Goddess Atvertha? Is she sick? Hopefully, Goddess Avtexia will not be angry with me or Naomi because this incident was against our will, thought the brown-eyed girl.

A few minutes later, the two girls arrived at the door of a room with two guards. Their panicked faces caught the attention of the two bodyguards, so one of them asked, “What was wrong? Why do you look like you are going to cry?”

“I tried to call Goddess Atverta, but there was no answer inside the room. I took turns with Athala, but the result was still the same. We were afraid that something bad had happened to her.” The black-haired girl answered and seemed reluctant to knock on the door.

The two young men guarding the room felt the same way, so their faces became pale, too. “That was bad. Today is Goddess Atvertha’s wedding day with Lord Toghnath. If the Moon Goddess is sick or something undesirable happens, then…” A blonde young man did not finish his words, as if he could already imagine what would be happening later at the palace.

“You must inform the Sun Goddess or Lord Helion quickly so that they can take the appropriate action.” The green-eyed man gave his opinion, so one of the two female servants was finally forced to do what they were advised to do.

Meanwhile, inside a room where Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia were there

“I can’t wait to see Atvertha wearing a wedding dress. She must be gorgeous,” said a woman who was still beautiful, even though she was four hundred and twenty years old. She wore a light blue dress and had dressed up, thus adding to her beauty. Meanwhile, an immortal god was also wearing neat clothes that suited his beloved wife.

“I did not expect that our daughter would become a wife. She must be-”

Before the man carrying the trident in his right hand could finish his words, a knock was heard, making the husband and wife’s attention divert. They both frowned as if something was wrong. “Is that one of the maids we sent to dress Atvertha? Why did they come so quickly? There is no way everything was done in a matter of minutes.” Goddess Avtexia expressed her suspicions.

“Then let the servant come in. I wonder what kind of news she wants to tell us.” A man with a long silver beard consented because he was curious about what had happened to his only daughter.

“Who is that?” asked Goddess Avtexia while looking towards the source of the sound.

“Goddess Avtexia, this is Naomi,” answered the knocker behind the door.

“Come in.” The large and heavy door opened so that the two female servants who saw this scene became even more discouraged, but they had no choice but to tell what had happened. They went in there, even though fear was surging in their hearts.

When the two female servants entered the room, they did not dare to approach, so a woman who hated the dark noticed something strange. Meanwhile, the palace’s owner glanced at his wife, and he was sure his beloved would say something to them. “What was wrong with both of you? Why have you come here, but instead, you are silent?” asked Goddess Avtexia while observing the maids there individually.

“We… we apologize, Goddess Avtexia. We wanted to inform you that when we arrived at the door of Goddess Atvertha’s room, she did not say anything. We tried knocking on the door several times, but there was still no response inside the room,” the gray-eyed woman answered. She was very anxious, and so was her friend.

A woman who controlled the sun did not seem to believe what the maid said. She turned to her husband, and a man wearing a crown on his head also felt the same way. “I do not believe that Atvertha is sick, Hubby. How about we check her condition ourselves?”

“Yes, Honey. I agree. We have to know what happened to our daughter.” Without many words, the husband and wife immediately left, followed by the two female servants who were still afraid. They were relieved because their masters were not angry, but that did not mean the matter would just end.

Where is Atvertha? It is impossible for her to get sick or do other strange things because her room is still sealed, except for the two maids. I deliberately gave them access but still had to have my daughter’s knowledge. Did she fall asleep so she could not answer or hear when the maids knocked on the door? Goddess Avtexia thought as she walked towards her destination.

Finally, Lord Helion, Goddess Avtexia, and the two servants arrived at the desired location. A woman who passed on the beauty to her biological daughter went to the door as soon as possible and then started knocking, but there was no response from there. However, she did not give up and continued to do the same thing five times, and the results were in vain. “Atvertha! Are you there?” asked Goddess Avtexia in a slightly loud voice.

The blue-eyed woman’s wait did not get satisfactory results because the virgin goddess seemed to deliberately not answer the question. Goddess Avtexia became annoyed but was not yet angry and suddenly turned to her husband, who had been observing her behaviour. “Hubby, how about this? Shall we just go in?” asked that immortal goddess to her mate.

“Yes, we would better go straight to her room,” answered Lord Helion, then he turned to the two servants behind him. “Both of you have to wait here. Do not go anywhere.”

“Yes, Lord Helion.” The two young girls answered in unison. Neither of them wanted to cause trouble with the Ruler of the Seas.

A man, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-seven centimeters, turned his attention back to his wife, and the slender woman opened the door. The Crossroads Lady’s parents entered the room and were very surprised when they saw the tranquil space. In fact, the girl’s appearance was not there at all. “Atvertha!” Goddess Avtexia called Lord Toghnath’s future wife. However, the name’s owner still did not answer, so suspicion grew among his parents.

“Atvertha! Do not play around!” A woman with a small sun tattoo on her upper right arm spoke while walking precisely toward Nyx’s best friend’s bed. She did not find Atvertha there either.

Lord Helion walked in the opposite direction. The wise man glanced around, and the room had no significant change.

“It is strange. There was no way Atvertha could get out of the room because this place was still sealed by my wife. Was there a possibility that she could break the seal?” muttered Lord Helion, who started looking at the cupboard. Not a single piece of clothing was missing. The burly man frowned again because this seemed abnormal.

If Atvertha ran away, then she must have taken something with her. At the very least, she will bring some clothes because her magick was deliberately locked, so she was still not perfect at using spells for heavy things unless she had passed the test, Lord Helion thought to himself while still looking for any missing items there.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

After checking the area, the four hundred-and-forty-year-old man moved to another part, and he accidentally observed his wife trying to find their daughter’s whereabouts, but to no avail. “Honey. Have you found any clues about Atvertha’s whereabouts?”

The opposite sex shook their heads. Goddess Avtexia’s face already looked very annoyed, and her anger could explode at any time. “I wonder, where did she go? There was no chance for Atvertha to get out because she did not have the ability to do that yet.”

“In your opinion, who can break the seal of this room, honey?”

A silver-haired woman fell silent, then began to think about which immortal god or goddess could do such an action. Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the room became quiet again. The Sun Goddess remembered a name one minute later, so she immediately chuckled. “What happened, Honey?” asked Lord Helion gently.

A man who could make heavy rain and storms tried not to arouse his wife’s anger, while a woman who could manipulate thoughts could not wait to carry out the intentions that had arisen in her heart. “I know who did it, Hubby.”

“Who was that?”

“She was Nyx!”

“Are you sure about that? We can’t make accusations carelessly, darling. The Underworld gods and goddesses will be angry if we say something like that, which is dangerous for us.”

“I am sure Nyx did it because only she and her family can open the seal I made!”

Lord Helion seemed at a loss for words. He was silent for a moment, then said to his beloved lady. “Before you point the finger at Nyx, it is better to ask the Night Goddess carefully. I am sure she was not the perpetrator.”

Goddess Avtexia snorted in disapproval. However, she has not denied it openly. “I will ask the two maids in front so that they send some guards to look for Atvertha. It is still early, so she can’t go too far because her magick knowledge is limited.”

“I agree, Hubby.” The goddess’s eyes, which were initially blue, began to turn red, although not yet one hundred percent.

“Do not be mad, Honey. Today is a happy day for us.” When she heard her husband’s persuasion, Goddess Avtexia tried to suppress her anger, so she forced herself to smile at Lord Helion.
