The Moon Goddess and Her Mate novel Chapter 15

At another place

"Damn! Why do I have to come with you, anyway?” grumbled Atvertha, feeling trapped.

The silver-haired girl held the hand of her best friend, who looked indifferent. They had arrived at a dark place where there was only torchlight for lighting. The road seemed long, lonely, and dreary. Atvertha occasionally looked at the surrounding situation, but she could not do this for too long, because she had to keep walking after the night goddess.

"Do not be fussy! You have to come down from time to time to find out what is going on in here. After all, soon you will be the moon goddess officially if your mother said so. You must know that we have to make good teamwork.” The two hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman remained unaffected by the other person's words. Nyx even deliberately sped up her pace, so Atvertha could not help but have to keep up.

“How if my mom finds out if—”

Before the violet-eyed girl had time to finish her words, her best friend had already cut her off. “Shut up! I do not want you to talk all the time! In this place, our family is handling everything. I warn you, do not mention other god or goddess names here. We hate the light, just as your mom hates the darkness. Enjoy yourself while you are here. The underworld was not a place that just any gods and goddesses could visit. Only the chosen ones can come here!”

When she heard the words of the woman, the only daughter of the couple, God Helion and Goddess Atvexia, was speechless. She seemed resigned to Nyx's actions, even though in her heart the virgin goddess wanted to return to the heavenly palace. Meanwhile, they kept walking, though they started to hear strange noises coming from out of nowhere.

Now, starting to see the trees in the fog. The darkness aura still dominated, even though there is light, but the light is not as bright as the sun. The sharp-nosed girl felt uncomfortable. She just did not dare to say it openly to the host, for fear of being scolded again by her good friend, who was always honest when giving opinions.

"Nyx, I—”

The girl who has a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimeters tall could not finish her words anymore, because her friend had turned to the left, so it forced the moon goddess to follow the instructions. They entered a long, silent passageway lit by torches. The sound of the two women's footsteps echoed, so Atvertha increased her vigilance, in case things happened that were beyond her control.

“Where are we now?” asked Atvertha, quietly.

The owner of the name heard the question. However, she remained silent, as if ignoring all the words of the other person, thus making the girl irritated. "Why are you silent, anyway? I know we are in the underworld, but why do not you tell me the details of the place we are going to? I am a guest here, so I have a right to get to kno—”

Atvertha deliberately stopped talking, because the slender girl only realized, if they had arrived at a strange place where there was a tall tree, where there were many branches there. The tree looked strange, because there was a scary face there, even though his eyes were closed. “Obthentha vith!” said Nyx, seriously.

Suddenly, both eyes that were originally closed opened immediately, when they heard the night goddess say this. The screams sounded so loud that the girl who did not like the flirtatious man spontaneously covered her ears because she could not stand it. However, the opposite happened with her best friend, who seemed not affected at all. She remained upright, staring at the old tree.

In less than a minute, the strange sound disappeared. However, something strange happened; The tree instantly split in two, shocking the young lady's heart, who had been living in the sky. Atvertha was surprised and, as soon as possible, turned her attention to Nyx, who was still standing upright. In the center of the tree appeared a strange sight, which was clearly different from the surrounding atmosphere.
