The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Somewhere on Earth,

A silver-haired girl seemed to have arrived near a house that was familiar to her. The distance between the young goddess and that building was around twenty meters. It was getting dark there because the sun had just set on the western horizon. The only daughter of the couple, God Helion and Goddess Avtexia, observed what was going on in the place she was about to go to, but the maiden had yet to find the opposite sex she was looking for.

“Where is Armen? I do not see my man in the front room. Is he away? It is impossible for me to go there, if he was not even at home,” muttered Atvertha, restless.

The two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman returned her focus to the house made of wood. The girl’s eyes, which were initially violet in color, as soon as possible turned orange. In less than a minute, she could see the situation in the residence of her lover’s parents. This moment was used by the Moon Goddess in order to find the information she needed.

“Armen. Are you sure your special friend will come to this house?” A middle-aged man asked seriously. He chuckled several times to cover up the anxiety that hit inside his heart.

The hazel-eyed man deliberately raised his voice slightly because the other person was in the room. Meanwhile, his spouse, who faithfully accompanied him, could only shake her head, seeing that the head of the Lugthna family seemed impatient, even though he knew that their eldest son had explained several times to inform them about the plans for the Crossroads Lady to come to their house.

“Of course, Dad. Atvertha did not lie. I know she would always keep her word.” Armen answered his biological father’s question. The young man looked annoyed because he was constantly being pushed by Lebrazht, even though he had explained several times about Atvertha’s certainty of meeting his family.

“How can you be sure that this time she would fulfill her promise? What if the strange girl ran away, because she changed her mind? Have you secretly tied the knot as husband and wife so you can mean what that woman said?”

Norah immediately glared when she heard her husband’s repeated questions. The pointy-nosed woman did not accept all the accusations made by her life partner. Meanwhile, Armen, who was still in the room, heard clearly all of his father’s words and became even more irritated. The man with thick eyebrows almost punched the wooden wall near where he was standing, but the lover of Goddess Atvertha quickly reversed this intention.

“My Love! Why are you even accusing our son of such an act? It was impossible for Armen to marry the Moon Goddess secretly. The girl’s parents must be furious. If indeed they did as you accuse them, then both of them have fled from here and are living in a miserable state.” Norah tried to remain patient in dealing with her husband’s self-willed attitude by not raising her voice when refuting Lebrazht’s questions.

“You always spoil our son. You should support me! What I asked earlier was actually quite natural, considering that we do not know the truth of what the strange girl said. Now, let me ask you; how can we contact with that goddess, while we do not know how to communicate with her? If you know the answer, then you could tell me.”

Norah exhaled quite loudly so that the opposite sex could hear it. The blonde-haired woman could not stop thinking about her husband’s mindset, who liked to be beyond reason. While Armen was seen wearing clothes, the young man, without further ado, left his room feeling extremely upset due to provocation from his father, who liked to act annoyingly.

“My Love, can’t you trust Armen just this once? If the girl has made a promise and always keeps it, then we also have to believe it. After all, the Moon Goddess can only come at night, so we can’t do anything except wait for her arrival.”

The man, who had a height of one hundred and eighty-five centimeters, spontaneously snorted. He was annoyed with his wife’s attitude, who always supported their eldest son. “If the strange woman did not come until midnight, then I think Armen has lied. I never believed his words that always insisted on having a special relationship with an immortal goddess. How could this happen? It just does not make any sense.”

A thirty-five-year-old man walked into the front room feeling irritated, but Armen still tried to be patient even though all of Lebrazht’s words were very painful for him. Meanwhile, Agtheo, who had been watching the fight between his father and his eldest brother, had not said anything. He deliberately eavesdropped at a distance that was not so far away, and unconsciously the young man smiled happily as if the events that had happened had made him rejoice.

If only that bastard man were not my biological father, I would have killed the old fart a long time ago. He is so ignorant, and I hate it! Just because Atvertha came from an immortal goddess, he could say bad things about my lady. I hope my special girl will come soon so that her presence can immediately dispel all my parent’s doubts, thought Armen, clenching his right hand into a fist.

“Dad, I believe Atvertha will be here soon. She has been here a few days earlier, so I am sure tonight will be the same.” Armen could not help but reply because he did not like his father treating his girlfriend like that.

The hook-nosed man laughed disdainfully. This moment made Norah and Armen even more furious. Lebrazht belittled everything the eldest son said because he thought it was all just nonsense.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Son. Do not be naive. Everything has to be thought out for the bad effect, so you do not get your hopes up too high, then later be disappointed when your expectations do not come true. I already lived fifty-four years in the world and I have never once heard from my parents if there is an immortal god or goddess who married a human race like us. They are usually arranged and have partners from the same class. I do not feel surprised if you fall in love with a stranger who you always admit as the Moon Goddess, so make sure first that that girl is trully a goddess. A ghost or spirit could change form and admitted that it was a god, a goddess, a fairy, or whoever they wanted to be.”

Armen, who had just arrived at his destination, almost spilled out all the anger he harbored. Meanwhile, Norah glared at her husband because her husband’s words were simply intolerable. Without the mortal family noticing, the immortal goddess who had been talked about earlier had heard all the conversation. Without hesitation, the only daughter of the couple, God Helion and Goddess Avtexia, flew towards her lovely man’s house; and then, after arriving at the desired area, Atvertha immediately knocked on the door.

The tapping sound distracted everyone who was there, especially Norah, Lebrazht, and Armen. The debated between themselves as soon as possible stopped because they felt annoyed and shocked by the sound that never stopped. That woman who had been married for thirty-six years to her husband said to her beloved eldest son, “Armen, you better open the door. Who knows, it might be the girl we are waiting for.”

“Yes, Mom.”

The brave guy, without further ado, went there with high curiosity. Is that my lady? I hope so. I can’t wait to introduce Atvertha to my family so they do not think I am hallucinating and want to bless our relationship, thought Armen.

The young man had arrived at the door area, and then he opened the door slowly. The mortal man’s parents also were staring in that direction with mixed feelings. Armen was surprised when he saw a woman who was familiar to him. A beautiful girl radiating light all over was standing right in front of him. Meanwhile, Lebrazht and Norah gaped, not expecting to witness an event so strange that they had never seen it before. Agtheo could not see clearly, because the distance between where he stood and the door was quite far, so he took a few steps forward, so he could find out what was happening.

“Honey, I did not expect that it was you who knocked on the door,” said Armen happily.

“Yes, Armen. I heard some noise from inside the house, so better i come straight here. I hope this action does not bother you,” said Atvertha, who tried to smile.

“No, honey. Your actions are not disturbing and we have been waiting for your arrival.” The thirty-five-year-old man held the opposite sex’s right-hand finger, and the virgin goddess just let her lover do this to her.

“Let’s go inside! My parents can’t wait to see you.”

The violet-eyed girl entered the house, accompanied by her mortal lover. Norah and Lebrazht looked at each other with pale expressions as if they were dealing with a ghost. At the same time, Agtheo was stunned because he saw such a beautiful foreign woman. He stared unblinkingly at the Crossroads Lady and felt jealous of his older brother’s unexpected luck. “Shit! Armen sure is lucky,” he muttered under his breath.

When a pair of lovers arrived in front of Norah and Lebrazht, Armen proudly said to his parents, who looked shocked and scared at the same time, “Mom, Dad. This is my lady. Her name is Atvertha, the Moon Goddess.”
