Chapter 437 +5Bonus Menu Nyx stood outside the locked room, her eyes fixed intently on the lock as if willing it to open. Her glowing eyes flickered briefly before returning to normal when the sudden sound of her phone ringing broke her concentration.
She pulled her phone from her pocket, glanced at the screen to see who was calling, and answered in a low voice.
âHello.â
âDid you get it yet?â came the impatient voice on the other end.
Nyxâs gaze darted back to the door. She hesitated before replying, âNot yet.â
âHow long? Weâre coming soon,â the voice snapped.
Her hand trembled slightly as she held the phone to her ear. âIâll let you know very soon,â she said, her voice strained.
The caller hung up without another word. Nyx exhaled shakily, lowering the phone from her ear. Her fingers tightened around the device as she stared at the locked door, a mixture of fear and determination etched on her face.
But before she could act further, a voice whispered softly in her ear, sending chills down her spine.
âAre you looking for something inside?â
Nyx spun around, clutching her chest in shock. Her body jerked back instinctively, and her wide eyes landed on Selene.
âYou almost scared me to death,â Nyx muttered, trying to steady her breath.
Selene raised an eyebrow, her lips curling into a cold smirk.
âWhy so scared? Is this how you plan to bring Alpha Kaneâs heir into the world?â
Nyx took a deep breath, collecting herself. âLook, Sister-â
But Selene raised her hand, cutting her off midâsentence. Her voice was sharp and unwavering. âDonât call me that. And stop your little act in front of me, okay? What do you think happens now, after youâve snatched my husband from me? Let me guessâ
you expect me to willingly hand over my position, and youâll become the Luna of this pack?â
Selene leaned closer, her gaze icy as she spat, âDream on, witch.â
Nyxâs eyes widened in shock at the word, but Seleneâs expression only hardened.
âWhat did you think?â Selene continued, her tone dripping with disdain. âThat it would be hard for me to uncover the truth about you and your pack? The Shadowveil Packâthe land of witches and wizards. Your secret wasnât exactly wellâhidden.â
Nyxâs face shifted then, her innocent mask slipping away. A sly grin spread across her lips, her green eyes glinting with something darker.
âIf you already know who I am,â Nyx said, her voice smooth and confident, âthen you must also know 09:40 81.99%
< Chapter 437 *Bonus Menu that we witches have the ability to see things that werewolves canât.â
Nyxâs gaze deliberately dropped to Seleneâs stomach. Her grin widened into a smirk.
âYouâre pregnant, arenât you?â
Seleneâs body stiffened at the words, her eyes flashing bright blue with fury. In an instant, her hand s hot out, grabbing Nyx by the neck and slamming her against the wall behind her.
Nyx gasped in pain as her back hit the wall. Her hands instinctively moved to her stomach rather than trying to pry Seleneâs hand from her throat.
âIf you dare tell anyone about it,â Selene growled, her voice low and deadly, âI swear, it will only take me a minute to end you, witch. The wolf inside me is clawing to tear you apart. But as a woman, I wonât harm your unborn child.â
Seleneâs piercing blue eyes bore into Nyx, her voice cutting like a blade. Nyx opened her glowing green eyes, locking onto Seleneâs as though trying to manipulate her with magic. But the power in Seleneâs gaze was overwhelmingâNyxâs magic faltered, failing completely against the strength of the Lunaâs wolf.
Instead, Nyx cried out, clutching her stomach as a sharp pain rippled through her body.
âPlease donât kill my baby,â Nyx pleaded, her voice trembling.
Selene narrowed her eyes, suspicious of her words. She thought Nyx was pretendingâher grip on the witchâs neck wasnât even tight enough to cause harm.
At that moment, a commanding voice broke through the tension.
âLeave her.â
Selene froze, her head snapping toward the source of the voice. Kane stood behind them, his expression dark and unreadable as his amber eyes flickered with warning.
