Oh my God an update! I know its been a while, actually its been a really long while, longer for some of my stories than others and I do apologise, but I have exams for the next two years, so I'll be dealing with them while trying to balance my time updating and dealing with my friends. So like I said, I apologise, and I don't when I'm going to be able to put up another chapter, but I want all my faithful readers to know that I do intend on finishing all my stories, it just may take a while. So without any further ado...actually one more thing, this isn't my best chapter and I know it's short, but I was kind of stuck and didn't think I should make you guys wait any longer than you really had to. So here's the next chapter, some reviews would be nice... even though I know I probably don't deserve them but if you want to be nice, I always feel better after a review.
Nyx's eyes snapped open and she glanced over at Nuada who seemed to be coming out of his daze, she stood up and fell against the wall dizzily, she really had lost to much blood. Nuada, who had by now come to his senses shot to her side and tried to make her sit down, "My Night, sit down, you have lost too much blood."
She shook him off weakly "I'm not your anything! Don't you dare tell me what to do!" she moved to leave and he stood in front of her.
"My Night, I understand you are angry but at least get yourself healed before you attempt to leave!" she eyed him with nothing but pure anger and a bolt of electricity landed mere millimetres away from the Prince's feet, causing him to jump back and out of the way. She opened the door and brushed past Wink who had just arrived with the healer, "Wink, go and get her!" The Prince wasn't sure but he could have sworn he saw Wink roll his eyes at the request before turning around and fetching the fey. The troll came back moments later with Nyx thrown over his shoulder pouting like a child. He dumped her on the bed and walked outside to stand guard at the door. The healer made quick work of her shoulder and informed her that she was not to leave the bed for 24 hours. He hightailed it out of the room when he say the murderous look the fey was giving him.
"Night," Nuada whispered, Nyx just ignored him and pulled the covers up to her neck and turned away from him. Nuada sighed and slid under the covers and slipped his arms around her waist causing her to tense up. "Nyx," he whispered by her ear, "you don't have to talk, just listen…I care deeply for you…" she scoffed and his grip tightened around her waist, "I do, if you think about it from my perspective, so far I have watched everyone and everything I care about slip through my fingers, I have been alive for two thousand years, and I will live thousands, maybe millions more. My sister, the one I shared a truly magical bond with, rejected me, my father condemned me to death and my people are content to let themselves fade into the darkness. So far the only being that I have been able to trust so far, the only one who hasn't betrayed me is Wink. Now that I've found you, I'm not about to let you go, I needed to bond with you and if I had told you, you wouldn't have agreed. Because we have only known one another for a very short time, but when an elf meets their mate, their one, they know within a day of meeting them, it takes longer for fey, but I wanted you to be known as mine the second I knew. I may have a hold over you My Night, but you also have a hold over me."
"Yeah right," she mumbled, although it was rather weakly.
"I do not lie Night, in order to forge a bond with you I had to give up the one I had with my sister, the one that I valued above everything else, when I met you, everything changed, I cannot say I love you yet, because in truth I don't, not yet, regardless of whether we know our mates or not, it takes time for love to grow. I want you to know that, now, I hold you above all else." With that lingering statement he brushed his lips on her pulse point at her neck and disappeared from the room.
Nyx let go of the pillow that she had been gripping throughout and let out a sigh, what was she supposed to do now? Her parents would be so angry at her for being bonded with an elf, let alone an elf prince, after all, elves and fey had been enemies since before she was born…she stopped at that thought, she was gaining more and more memories of her times in this world and the ones of the world that she really did live in were fading… what was she supposed to do with that? She was truly becoming part of this world… did that mean that she wouldn't be able to stop the end of the movie from happening the way it did in her world? Or had she already done enough to prevent the Prince's untimely death? Left with nothing by her musings Nyx allowed herself to drift off and eventually her mind relaxed enough to sleep.
By the time Nyx woke up it was day, well at least she figured it was day above ground, the lighting in this underground palace changed over the day, starting off light, then bright, then getting darker, like a day above ground. She clambered out of bed and headed for a shower, the only ones in this wing were sort of communal showers although as far as she could tell she and Nuada were the only ones who used them.
She stepped under the spray of hot water and sighed, what was she going to do? Her life in her world was getting darker and darker, and her life in this world, well, it may not have been getting darker but it certainly wasn't getting any brighter. She was bonded to an Elven Prince who was pretty much a homicidal maniac when it came to humans, the only link she had to a world outside of this one, her friend, her sister, her cousin Almira, decided that she would be better off sticking with the Princess not to mention Nuada had entered the showers mere moments after she had turned on the water and, while he was bathing, was staring at her with an intensity like no other. Refusing to acknowledge him she turned off the water, grabbed her towel and left.
It had now been officially fourteen hours since she blew up at Nuada and she was dying inside, it was the bond, she was sure of it, she wouldn't miss him at all if it weren't for the damned thing!
"I wouldn't be so sure about that!" her IV sang. "You had a thing for him the second you watched the movie, and the very moment he saved you was when you became in too deep, which, really when you think about it is kind of pathetic really, I mean you started falling for a made up character and continued to fall for a not so made up, but an equally as unattainable, Elf Prince who saved your butt. Really I mean, I know I wouldn't fall for him, especially not that quickly!"
Nyx's eye twitched just slightly and she ground her jaw, "Actually, correct me if I'm wrong but who exactly was ogling the guys perfect abs apart from me when we saw the movie? Who's the one that told me to go and find Nuada and snog him senseless? What no reply? That's because it was you!"
"Just talk to him, you know you're not gonna find many guys out there that want you with the intensity that he does…I mean think about it, really, no human male will ba able to for you what he can, no other fey will be able to do for you what he can, really you should consider yourself lucky."
"Consider myself lucky…? You've been talking to Nuada haven't you?"
"Okay, well…maybe I had a little chat with him while you were asleep…"
"You traitor! You're only allowed out of my head when I say!"
"Look I was just trying to help you out, I mean c'mon, you're throwing away a great opportunity here!"
"Get Out."
"Nyx?"
" I said get out of my head NOW"
"But I- I was just trying to-" The IV sighed when she realised that her host wasn't listening and walked over to the golden doors, pushed them open and headed directly into Nuada's mind.
Nuada was training once again, since the bond between he and his sister had been broken he couldn't feel where she was he had a few creatures that were loyal to him personally to go out and search for her. He froze mid stance when he felt a small part of his bonded enter his mind, closing his eyes he allowed himself to contact her, "Nyx, you have come to talk?"
Nyx's IV snorted and walked into view of his smaller self, "Wrong your highness, it's just me, you'd think by now you'd realise who I am, we look different you know?" Nyx's inner voice was pretty much opposites to her outer self, instead of pale skin, the Inner Voice's was black, and all the tattoos on the IV were white with a few blue ones dotted about as opposed to black and red.
"What can I help you with?"
"You know, so far there have only been a total of two times when my host doesn't talk to me, when she's asleep…I don't control our body so I don't need it, and when she…or rather we slept with you, which was understandable really, we were both pretty busy…"
"Is there a point to this?"
"Yes actually there is. She stopped talking to me, which means you just lost your only link to getting back with her…"
"What? What happened? What did you do?"
"What makes you think that I did anything?! I actually find that really rude!"
"You two were talking, and then she stopped, and now you're in my mind, because you are…bored."
"Yeah, okay, when you put it like that it is kind of my fault, but I was kind of…well I was trying to help you, you know? I guess it didn't really work all that much, so anyway, can I hang out in here?
The smaller version of Nuada sighed, "Only for a few days. After which I expect you to have made up with your host."With that he disappeared from view.
Right well that's it for now... thanks for reading, and if you review, thank you so much
