"Well don't get sappy on me," Celia patted his cheeks, "And you're not getting any children, we've already discussed that. It's not for my line of work to push out babies. I'll save all the children loving for Luna and Alexei, they have plenty of kids to keep the line going."
She then dusted herself off as she looked back to Lucas, "I know you're sided with Lauchlain, but i'm with Luna on this. She made her choice and it's done. Everyone who's still mad has nothing to be mad at anymore, hell she's not even married anymore. Besides, her punishment was being married to that oaf. That's punishment enough."
"You're powers are getting stronger, I see," Luna smiled as Nyx brought a flower back to life just by touching it, "It's like you're not even a vampire at all."
"Dad says that too," Nyx smiled softly, "I know Emma isn't my real Mom, but I love her still like one. It's just...she treats me differently than the others. Not in big ways, but in the way she looks at the others and then at me. Like...I came from somewhere she'd rather not remember."
Luna understood. Nyx was the love child between Oscar and Crystal. It only made sense that Emma would try to love the girl like her own and still remember who the real mother was. Any normal would feel that way. Luna then stopped at a large statue of a wolf with a nude woman at it's side, "I knew your real mother, as did Emma and the others."
Nyx's crystal blue eyes widened as she looked up at Luna, "You did? Who was she? Was she just as powerful?"
"Your mother was the guardian of all witches. She was the one that was answered to by all that followed the magick and witches. And she was very lovely," Luna touched the statue before looking to Nyx, "Has your father told you about your real mother?"
"Dad says that my mom is Emma and he's my dad, that there's no reason to look for other answers," Nyx shrugged as she plucked the moon flower.
"Well then..." Luna bit her lip, it wasn't her conversation to bring up but it was already spoken of, "Your mother's name is Crystal. She and your father were very much in love at one time and had you because of how much they loved each other. Eventually things did not work out very well and went their separate ways. Astrid brought you here to be with your father because your mother was very sick at the time and couldn't take care of you. But your father and Emma love you very much, and Emma loves you like her own daughter."
Nyx stood silently as the truth was spoken to her. She dropped the flower as her eyes never left Luna's. Nothing made sense. Why did her mother not want her? Then it only made sense why Oscar didn't want her to use her magic so much because she was genetically stronger because of her mother's leadership among the other witches.
"Please don't see Emma and your siblings any differently. You and Jamie still shared your dad," Luna tried to near Nyx, but the girl took a step back, "Nyx?"
"I need to find my real mom," Nyx spoke merely to herself, "One day i'll go after her when i'm stronger."

"Do you wish to go back inside?" Luna asked Nyx, but the witchling shook her head as she wandered further into the garden.
She saw the distant look in Nyx's eyes as they walked passed each other. Whatever happened now, she would support the girl. As she walked in, a small group of lycans were just about to walk passed until they saw Luna. They snickered to each other before spitting at her feet. Luna stepped back as to not be spit on and let them walk passed. Let them believe what they wanted to believe, it was not their place to pass judgement on her.
"Well, whatever happened to him after Luna married to prosper Leonardo is beyond her and shouldn't be blamed for that," Celia mentioned, then Luna walked into the main foyer, "Speak of the devil."
"Hey," Oscar walked up to his nieces and Lucas, "Long time no see. Sorry to be in such a haste, but have you seen Nyx? I sent her up here to see you."
"We saw her," Luna answered, "We had a small talk and she should be left alone for a bit."
"I see..." Oscar wanted to go see his daughter, but he trusted Celia and Luna that Nyx wants to be left alone to just let her, "Well then, welcome to Lycan Kingdom. Luna, i'm sure you are most welcome here."
"If not then i'll gladly stay with Nyx," Luna smiled.
"Come, i'll show you to the dining area so you can have a drink."

"Nyx!" Oscar yelled out of breath, damn he needed to quit smoking, "Nyx!"
"I'm right here, Dad," Nyx spoke as she laid casually on a tree branch, having it lower her so she could see her father better.
"Oh thank the creator..." Oscar caught up with his breath, "I thought you had..."
"Left to find my mom?" Nyx raised a brow, "No. I don't want to find her just yet when she didn't even want me."
"Nyx, that's-" Oscar was about to speak when Astrid pulled him back.
"M'lady Nyx," Astrid spoke, "Your mother wanted you, she loved you with all her heart, but she was not ready to care for you. What had happened was something none of us could control. Her emotions were wiped from her and she could not care for a child at that time. It was not her own fault. She loved you very much. I hid you away and brought you to Oscar. He has loved you so much."
Nyx began to tear up as she drew her knees to her chest. She hated feeling like this. It felt like she didn't belong anywhere. Not in this stupid court or even her mother's. Oscar went to his daughter and held her tight against him, "You have always been loved, my little Nyx."
"It'll be like Helen of Troy," Celia mused as she took a long drink, "So they think they'll invade our brother's kingdom if you choose to marry someone else?"
"If I choose to marry at all," Luna sighed, "That's the word going around, I hear. All because i'm...what did they say...'fertile'? I already have five children, I certainly do not need anymore."
Both sisters chuckled. Luna's eldest was still attending, but they had no idea when the girl would show up. She didn't want her daughter to be ridiculed while she was in Emma's court seeing how badly the people here treated Luna. Celia patted Luna's shoulder, "If your daughter is anything like us, she'll turn the other cheek and let them act like commoners."
Meanwhile, Octavia nodded her head along with the italian heavy metal band she loved as the limo pulled in front of the Lycan Kingdom. It smelled like wet dog. Why would her mother stay at a place like this? Pulling the hood over her head, Octavia grabbed her one suitcase as she left the limo and up the entrance. She was about to knock on the door when a shadow was at her side, "Escuse', but I don't like stalkers."
"Turn back while you can," Keagan whispered as he looked around, hoping to have found a good spot to hide from the others, "It's a trap if you go in there."
"My mother is in there," Octavia pulled down her hood, "Luna di Avicci. I'm Octavia di Avicci."
"I'm someone who could careless," Keagan felt a dry spot in his throat, "C'mon, i'll take you around the back."
"And who says i'll go anywhere with a mutt?" Octavia crossed her arms, her spike necklace digging into her hardened skin.
"Because I can smell that you don't like making an entrance with all the 'mutts' around. Now c'mon or i'm leaving you behind," Keagan began to walk in the shadows.
Damn. He was right. Octavia grabbed her suitcase and followed Keagan into the shadows to go to the back entrance.

"Pillage and rape," Celia rolled her eyes, "Sounds like a lovely time, eh sister?"
"And these people thought Mother was primitive..." Luna also rolled her eyes as she sipped her drink, "'have babies or die'. And if I wanted to break Lauchlain's heart, it would've have been broken already. At least when Leonardo wanted children he brought me a bottle of wine and blood with roses."
Oscar, Astrid, and Nyx walked into the dining area to see Emma rush passed to kill something. Astrid and Nyx went ahead as Oscar lit a cigarette, "Yup, my wife has completely lost it. It's about time she named someone so I can at least enjoy the rest of my existence with a sane woman."
"Was she ever sane to begin with?" Luna looked to Oscar.
"No," Oscar took a shot of liquor.

Oscar downed another shot, the twins following him as he yanked Emma back on her feet, "Seriously, get back on your meds. You're a mess."
Celia and Luna glanced at each other before looking back at Emma. Oscar then turned to the twins, "This is how Emma acted before you kids came along. Your mother did her best to keep her calm, but...you remember how well that worked out. Liam did a good job during his time before screwing it all to hell, and then I get the rest of time to do my job."
"And before the moment slips," Celia stood in front of Luna as her eyes flashed white towards Lauchlain, "If I hear wind that you want my sister because she's 'fertile' then you better start looking somewhere else. She already has kids of her own and doesn't need you doing the mating dance around her or even threatening to go after my brother's kingdom because she doesn't want to bend over for you."
"Celia..play nice," Luna tried not the hide the blush of pride she felt in her sister standing up for her.
"Mother?"
Luna turned to see Octavia, her eyes wide, "Tavia? What are you doing here? You were supposed to go to Alexei's."
"I came here to see you," Octavia rushed to her mother where they hugged, looking at the scene, "These are...who?"
"My twin sister, Celia, and her husband, Lucas. That's also my uncle, Oscar, and my half-sister, Emma, and that is a family-friend, Lauchlain," Luna introduced them all, careful not to explain the situation to her daughter about Lauchlain.
"They seem...troubled," Octavia chose her words wisely, her midnight black hair flowed over her shoulders as she nodded to the others.
"This my eldest daughter, Octavia," Luna held her daughter's shoulders, Celia smiled and went to embrace the girl.
"You look so much like your mother. You also have your father's eyes. Such a beautiful crimson," Celia smiled at the young woman.
"Grazi," Octavia spoke with a half-smile, "I see the fun has started without me."

Luna knew it was always Lauchlain choice to leave her behind, and when she finally left him behind it was 'breaking the law' and among other things. Watching him leave again only broke her heart even more when she needed him the most. Octavia noticed the sadness in her mother's eyes before taking her hand, "Father would want you happy, Mother. He loved you very much."
"I know," Luna lied, Leonardo loved his children and himself but he did not love her and neither did she love him.
Celia gave the finger to Emma, who never understood anything, and went after Lauchlain, "If you're leaving again, that's on you. Octavia came because of her mother, and Luna came here to see you. If you leave, that's you. Just don't bother to show your face in her life again or i'll cut your head off."
It was a known fact that Celia and Lauchlain had a brawl after Luna had first left to marry the Italian and that the vampire had kicked him out of Alexei's kingdom personally. If it had to, she'd take Luna and Octavia and never see any of the mutts again for as long as they lived.
"Way to go, a*****e," Oscar glared at Lauchlain, "If you make my niece cry, i'll make sure you're gutted. And you, Emma, threaten my niece again and i'll make sure you're more insane from isolation and need."

Octavia looked from Lauchlain to her mother. She walked passed her mother and punched Lauchlain's nose that blood oozed from the orifice, "How dare you speak like that about my father! He was a good man and treated Mother like a damn saint! You weren't good enough for her and you're not good enough now you stupid, disgusting Alpha!"
"Octavia," Luna pulled her daughter away.
She didn't spare Lauchlain a glance as she made her way back to the castle with her daughter in hand. Octavia looked to Lucas and Luna shook her head, "I'd like to keep Octavia close to me while we're here. After all of this, I don't want her to be anymore mistreated. Come, Octavia, let your mother give you blood from your travels."
Celia went over to Lauchlain and picked him up by the scruff of his shirt, "The way you're acting now, you don't deserve my sister. You have earned my disrespect. Don't come near my sister again or there will be a problem between us."
Tossing him back to the ground, she turned and left to follow Luna as Oscar went to Lauchlain as he dropped the ashes from his cigarette on the wolf's head, "Same goes from me. You're forbidden to be near my niece. Take another woman. I'll send word to Alexei and Anya to let them know of this restraining order."
Oscar left the lot of the others to go back inside to care for his ill-minded wife.
