    Nyx''s Pov.


    "Hello dear." She smiled at me and I opened the door wider. She stepped into the room and I finally


    got a chance to look at her well.


    She didn''t look a day over forty and she was drop dead gorgeous. She had really long white hair


    and she looked a lot like Lycus and she still had those deep ck set eyes. I knew she was lycus''s


    mother and instantly I got all shy and flustered.


    "H..i.." I managed to say but it came out as a stutter, damn it Nyx! So fucking pathetic you can''t


    even say a Hi! I chided myself, "Hi." I tried again and this time it came out more formidable.


    And she did something that shocked me to my core. She pulled me into a bone crushing and loving


    hug. One that I had never gotten in my entire existence.


    so this is what Amara feels like when I hug her, I thought to myself as I tried to wrap my head


    around the fact that she had me in her arms and it felt reassuring, peaceful, it felt like the hug


    saying that she was here for me no matter what.


    After quite a while she pulled me away softly with her arms still on my shoulders, "Finally d to


    meet you Nyx." She smiled, "I have waited for this for long honey."


    "Who..a..re…yo..u?" I stuttered as I was shocked by her warmth despite knowing that she was


    definitely Lycus''s mother.


    "I am Lycus''s mother dear." She grinned.


    "Hi." Amara gained our attention, "You are beautiful."


    "Hey sweetie." She smiled and walked to the bed to join Amara, "How are you?"


    "I am okay." Amara said, "Meet fluffy." She poked her teddy in the woman''s face.


    "Awwn.. Fluffy is cute…nice to meet you fluffy." She cooed and I smiled at their interaction as I was


    d that Amara was working on hermunicative skills and she wasn''t a coward unlike me.


    "Could you excuse us for a moment?" Lycus''s mother said to Amara, "I would love to talk to your


    mother for some time."

    "Okay." Amara said with a shrug, she picked up fluffy and raced out of the room shutting the door


    behind her.


    "Come dear." She said to me and I moved to join her on the bed, "I would love to have a little chat


    with you."


    I nodded.


    "My name is Helena." She began, "As you already know I am Lycus''s mother, ever since he told me


    about you, I have always wanted to meet you."


    "He talked about me?" I was shocked, "Why did you want to meet me?"


    "Cause you are my son''s mate, silly." She giggled and I liked her already.


    "Lycus doesn''t want me." I shrugged, "You must know that."


    She sighed and reached out, taking both my hands in her, "He would want you eventually dear, he


    had been through a lot, just give him time."


    "You don''t understand." I pushed her hands away, "No one wants me. Look at me." I stood up


    gesturing at my body, "I am ugly, scarred, used, abused and what not?" I said, "I wouldn''t even want


    myself. I can''t be his Queen, I am weak. I am not what other she wolves are. I am a cursed


    abomination." I broke into tears as I spoke and she stood up and pulled me into another warm hug.


    "You are not what you think you are my dear." She said rubbing my hair, "You are beautiful and I


    know you would be a wonderful person. Just give him time and stay strong."


    I nodded crying even though I didn''t agree with her.


    "Just know that I am here if you need me." Her kind words made me tear up more and I ended up


    crying out with my headid on her shoulder and her arms around me.


    Helena left after quite some time and Amara hadn''te back. Afterying down on the


    bed for a while I decided to go out and look for her. I left the room despite Lycus''s wishes for me to


    stay put. I was scared of what he will do if he found out i went against his wishes or saw me outside


    but on the other hand what will he do other than beat me up or torture me, I was already used to it.


    I won''t harm you, His words rang in my ears and I still didn''t believe them. He was going to despite


    him saying that.


    I got out of the room and closed the door behind me. I didn''t know where to go, if i''d go left or right


    as there was a long hallway and all doors were simr to mine.


    I turned back and studied my door properly to ensure that I knew which one it was to avoid a case


    of me returning to the wrong room and after I was satisfied with knowing the door, I decided to go


    right.


    I walked down the hallway and then got to a stairs. I followed it downwards, it was long and spiral.


    After some time my legs had begun to ache but I kept on moving.


    I got to another hallway, went through it, got to a shorter stairs and finally I reached the kitchen, a


    very huge kitchen.


    It was filled with people to my dismay and each of them threw disgusted nces at me.


    I began to panic real hard as I thought of how to make it past them without getting hit or insulted.


    I gulped and began to move.


    They were all silent but still watched me with disdain.


    i am moving freely? Why aren''t they hurting me? Insulting me or throwing things at me?


    And then it happened.


    I tripped and fell to the ground hitting my head on the tiled floor and I felt my skin crack.


    The whole kitchen bustled withughter as I struggled to get on my feet.


    "Next time watch where you are going omega!" The girl who had purposefully tripped me over


    chuckled, "And try to eat more, you are all bones!" She threw some of her food at me and the rest


    followed suit.


    I ran out of the kitchen crying as they had a great timeughing at my misery.


    I got out through the open back door into a field and I began to walk with my hands wrapped around


    my thin frame sobbing.


    I hadn''t walked too far when I saw Amara lying on the floor holding fluffy as she started at clouds.


    "Amara." I called hastening towards her.


    "Mommy." She sprang up excitedly and ran to meet me hugging my legs, "What happened?" She


    asked looking up at my messed up state.


    "Nothing dear." I said picking her up and heading towards the house. I reached the hallway where


    my room was without any qualms aside from some snide remarks and curses thrown at me.


    I had a hard time finding my room which was soon rectified as I saw Lycus standing in front of a


    door.


    finding the room isn''t so hard now, is it? I got afraid as I took in his form. He was mad very mad and


    the aura emanating from him was so strong and his hands were fisted by his sides.


    He looked like he wanted to wrench my head off my shoulders and I knew that I was in so much


    trouble.
