The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

In a palace in the sky,

A silver-haired woman was seen reading a book in the library. That young lady remained to concentrate on her current activity. When she saw something that caught her attention, Goddess Atvertha started to turn her head in another direction. She grabbed a quill and then opened the lid of the ink bottle that was placed on the table. Soon the girl started to write something on a parchment that had been prepared beforehand.

“Now I have to study more diligently, so that when the time comes to be tested by Mom, I will not encounter significant difficulties. I have to succeed in becoming a fulltime Goddess like Nyx, so that later I can marry my mortal man without any hindrance from my parents,” muttered Atvertha.

A virgin goddess still continued to record material that was considered important to her. Occasionally she stopped writing because she must read the same book. Atvertha seemed to be looking for anything that was considered important. This action continued for a long time, and the girl did not get tired of it. The spirit of the only daughter of the couple, God Helion and Goddess Avtexia, was so burning, as if no one could stop it.

Without that girl knowing it, a man started to enter the place but deliberately did it secretly, as if he was afraid to disturb the opposite sex who was already there. The pale-faced woman was still engrossed in the activities she had been doing. When he was closer to that target, the God of War preferred to sit in front of Atvertha, even though the woman he adored had not yet realized his presence.

The Moon Goddess had just finished writing on the parchment. She started to read everything written on it, and then her facial expression looked satisfied. Meanwhile, the opposite sex was still observing all the behaviour of the girl who was currently busy tidying up everything. When Atvertha turned towards the front, the Goddess was surprised to see the appearance of an unexpected man there.

“Hello, beautiful. How are you?” asked Toghnath kindly.

The playboy smiled as if to lighten the mood. However, this effort was in vain because the young lady’s expression remained flat, aka not impressed. In fact, that long-haired woman seemed lazy to meet the opposite sex. A woman with thin eyebrows was even more amazed by Toghnath’s attitude because he kept smiling at her. This moment made Atvertha uncomfortable and she wanted to leave that place as soon as possible.

“What do you want?” Atvertha asked back.

The two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman did not want to answer the other person’s question. Atvertha started to point her palms at the book, a roll of parchment, a quill, and a bottle of ink that was tightly closed. These objects seemed to float in the air, but no higher than her palm. The amber-eyed man knew of the situation but did not comment at all.

“You really study hard, honey. I like the smart girl.” Toghnath ignored her current question.

The black-haired man remained affectionate, even though he knew that the beautiful woman did not reciprocate in kind. Atvertha felt that it was useless to continue the conversation, so without further ado, she got up from her seat, then started walking towards the library’s exit accompanied by objects that had been used for the study.

As soon as possible, a three-hundred-year-old man stood up, then walked rather quickly to catch up with the pale-faced woman. When Toghnath was close to the target, he immediately blocked Atvertha’s right hand. The Goddess who had gone to the Underworld with her best friend turned her head and stopped walking. She stared intently at the opposite sex, but the man ignored it.

“Why are you in such a rush to leave? I just got here, honey.”

“Who told you to come to this place? No one invited, so do not ever think that you are important.”

The words from the pointed-nosed girl felt so painful in the guest’s heart. A man who never gave up never thinks that the woman he dreams of could say hurtful words. Meanwhile, the Moon Goddess continued to glare at the annoying God. Gradually, the man felt hot, as if there was a fire coming from inside her right hand, but he tried to ignore it. However, that heat grew stronger, so Toghnath had to let go of the opposite sex’s hand.

Toghnath suddenly widened when he saw that there was indeed fire coming out of Atvertha’s body which seemed to surround the goddess. That fire was not very big, but enough to warn anyone who tried to harm a male mortal’s lover. The girl’s eyes which were originally violet now turned orange. Her sight was very scary for the young man.

The situation inside the library became quiet. The Crossroads Lady said nothing, but her glare made the god’s guts sink. Toghnath tried to divert his attention to the palm of the hand, which still hurt him as a result of he was blocking Atvertha’s right hand. That sly man saw the colour of the skin turn purplish red, even though it was not injured at all.

“Ouch. it hurts. How could you possibly do that, honey?”

The Queen of Witches did not want to answer that question at all. That virgin took another step, followed by several objects that had been made floating earlier. Toghnath only watched Atvertha leave, and he was unable to prevent this. When his target had disappeared from sight, the God of War felt angry at being ignored, but on the other hand, he became very curious.

“Damn it! Again, Atvertha refused me! Why is that girl’s behavior getting weirder and stranger? What is the matter? I never knew, that my love could emit fire from inside her body. Hm … this is really suspicious. I have to find out the answer.”

A few moments later

A woman seemed to have arrived in front of a room. The door that was originally closed suddenly opened wide by itself. The only daughter of the couple, Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia walked into the place along with a bottle of ink, a book, a quill, and a roll of parchment. The same door automatically closed again when the Goddess was in the room as if the object had been programmed to do this.

The wallflower goddess was silent for a moment, then looked around. Her room did look deserted. Atvertha’s memory returned to the attitude of a man who was really annoying to her. That girl’s eyes were still orange, indicating she was angry. “Damn you, Toghnath! That bastard man just keeps interrupting my peaceful life! What should I do to make him stay away from me?”

A young lady seemed to be thinking of something, but no ideas had yet emerged. A woman, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimetres, shook her head. The colour of the eyes, which had become orange, slowly returned to normal. Atvertha spontaneously turned her attention to the mirror. However, there is nothing there. The memory of her best friend, who always came suddenly, suddenly appeared in her mind. She felt guilty for the woman with long black hair.

“Nyx … I wish she was here so that we could talk as usual. Our last meeting was very unfortunate because there was a fight, even more than that. I am at a loss as to how to get Toghnath out. I could ask her anything if she was there, because usually, my friend would give her own views. Nyx’s words mostly sounded harsh, but when I was thinking about it, there was some truth to it. Is it okay to contact her at this moment? Is she not angry with me anymore? I hope so.”

Atvertha turned to the left, and it turned out that the items used while studying at the library were still floating in the air. As soon as possible, Goddess pointed her left hand at a table that she usually used to study, so all the objects went straight there without being commanded and arranged neatly by themselves. That girl smiled slightly when she saw this situation. It made her satisfied and happy at the same time.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

In the midst of the silence, Atvertha again saw the face of his beloved lover. This raised the spirit in the girl. All the beautiful memories they had together came back to mind. A silver-haired woman became sad when she remembered the words of the Goddess Avtexia, especially about her life partner. Her mother always mentioned Toghnath and was so proud of him, even though Atvertha did not like that man.

“Armen, what are you doing on Earth? Do you miss me? Sooner or later, my parents will definitely find out about that male mortal, especially Mom. I hope this moment does not happen anytime soon, because I am not ready to face my parent’s anger.”
