The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

The night was getting late. The sounds of night animals were still occasionally heard in the forest. Suddenly, two figures appeared from the darkness. A well-built man seemed to hold the fingers of his dearest lover while a silver-haired woman allowed this. After a moment of silence, the Moon Goddess turned to her beloved man. “We are already arrived here, Armen. You just need to walk a bit as usual, and you will arrive at your destination as soon as possible.”

That strong guy looked at his lovely girl. He seemed reluctant to part, but it must be done too. Armen embraced Atvertha’s slender body, making the young lady aghast. However, the maiden allowed her mortal man to do so. “I always miss you, honey. Every minute that I have spent with you was so valuable for me. I wish we could be together forever.”

Armen’s words made the immortal goddess touched. Atvertha also spontaneously returned her lover’s hug, although at first, she was reluctant to take this action. A strange feeling enveloped in that girl’s chest, making her confused yet uneasy. They hugged in silence for a few moments. The young man also did not want to let go of the hug, as if he was comfortable in that position. “Thank you. I wish the same way with you too.”

The handsome man was happy with these words but still sad because they had to part immediately. Meanwhile, Atvertha could not do anything, even though that beautiful girl really wanted the same thing as the opposite sex. They hugged each other for a long time until Armen finally let go of the hug first. He stretched out both palms towards his lovely girlfriend’s face and held the goddess’s smooth cheeks. “We will meet again soon. Do not forget me, even though you will be busy studying in the sky there.”

The feeling of happiness returned to the virgin goddess. As soon as possible, the two cheeks that were being held by her lover blushed, and this was clearly seen by the young man. Armen smiled seeing this, then kissed Atvertha’s forehead. The Crossroads Lady quickly widened her eyes. She was at a loss for words and did not know what to do. After they finished kissing, the first son of the couple, Lebrazht Lugthna and Norah Bitnantzh, looked back lovingly at the opposite sex.

“Honey, I am going home first. Thank you for tonight. I really enjoyed spending time with you. Take care of yourself while I am away. I love you.”

Atvertha seemed transfixed. The girl’s eyes felt hot, and even the desire to vent immediately appeared. Such moments rarely happened to her, so she held the interlocutor’s hand spontaneously. Armen, who was about to turn around, was amazed, so that man discouraged this intention. “What is it, honey? Do you want to say something?” he asked gently.

“I… I…” The quiet girl stuttered. The violet-eyed woman seemed unable to convey what was in her heart, even to finish her words. Meanwhile, the brown-skinned man smiled broadly and rubbed Atvertha’s cheeks tenderly.

“Are you starting to worry about something, honey? We will meet again soon. You do not have to worry about me. I will always be waiting for you to come pick me up, like you usually do.” Armen again gave words that made Atvertha’s feelings flare up. The two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman looked like she did not want to be separated from her lover, and something like this had never happened to her.

“Are you okay, my dear? Say something please.”

Now, worry struck within the young guy. Armen started to think that there was something important, but the opposite sex was deliberately hiding it from him. A man with thick eyebrows did not understand his lover’s way of thinking, but he soon realized that time was running out and he had to go home soon, so his parents would not suspect him.

“My dear, I am sorry. I can’t stay with you for long, because I have to go home now.”

The wallflower lady felt even more dejected. The girl’s feelings, which had been turbulent all along, now could not do anything about it. She tried to drown out all the anxiety that was in her mind, even though it was hard for her to do. Meanwhile, a male mortal seemed to give a little time for his lover, so the young man did not leave there immediately.

“Yes, you were right. I am sorry Armen.”

Armen smiled. “It is okay, my dear. We will meet again soon. I promise.”

The girl, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimetres, forced herself to smile, even though it was in vain because her facial expression remained the same. “Yes, Armen. See you again tonight. I will come at the same time. Let’s hope it will be as soon as now.”Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

The smart guy smiled. He kissed Atvertha’s forehead with a feeling of deep happiness, while the Moon Goddess only could stare at him because the time had come for her boyfriend to return to his house, even though the virgin did not want that. “Great! I am glad to hear that! See you soon, My Love! Please remember me wherever you are.”

“I will. Please do the same way for me too.”

A few minutes later

A tall man seemed to arrive at the front area of his father’s residence. He walked carefully as if afraid to wake the people living there. When the young man had just stepped into the living room area, suddenly, there was a sound that made Armen speechless and a little scared. “Where have you been? Is this what you do every night? You always leaving the house, coming back here, and all without our knowledge?”

Damn! Why is Dad even awake? Should he not still be sleeping? What kind of answer should I give? I could not play dumb, even though I knew what kind of answer to say to Dad. Oh, well, I still have no idea, Armen could only think to himself. That guy has not even had the courage to speak anything to the questioner.

“Armen. I heard from Dad that you met a strange woman. Was that true? Who was she? Where did you two know each other? Why could she only be met at night? Did you realize how dangerous that situation for you? How if something terrible suddenly happened when you were away and we could not help because we did not know about your location?”

Armen’s expression paled even more when he heard a woman’s voice that was so familiar to him. Luckily, his facial expressions could not be seen directly by his parents because there was minimal lighting there, and apart from being still at night, the house only had torches as the only source of lighting.

The head of the family had been paying attention to the attitude of the eldest son, but he was not satisfied because there had been no comment from Armen. This made Lebrazht uneasy. “Son, should not you investigate that girl’s origins before deciding to meet regularly? She could be one of the dark spirits or could be some demon in disguise. You could put this family in danger!”

A thirty-five-year-old man was instantly disturbed by the last sentence his father said. His right hand spontaneously clenched, but he remembered that he had to stay calm and not get provoked. The young man’s parents felt strange about their son’s attitude because they had not listened to Armen’s comments. The atmosphere in the living room area turned quiet and awkward at the same time.

“Armen. If you want to have a relationship with a girl, then there are still many girls from our tribe. They will definitely be happy to accept you. You are our son, so you can choose any girl you like to be your wife, except her. We do not want it, if one day you have a problem if the woman you have chosen as your spouse turns out to be of unclear origin.”

The macho guy could not hold his anger any longer. Armen was not willing if his lover was judged excessively by his parents. Meanwhile, both Norah and Lebrazht were irritated with their son, but they still refrained from swearing directly at the interlocutor.

“Mom and Dad. Please stop saying awful words like that about my girl. Her name is Atvertha. She is not a girl whose origins are unclear. She is the nicest girl I ever known.”

Armen’s answer made Lebrazht’s eyes widen. It was as if he had obtained some valuable information, so without wasting any opportunity, the fifty-four-year-old man immediately asked his son a new question, “So, her name is Atvertha? What kind of name is that? Where does the girl live and who are her parents? We have to know everything about your special friend, because we are your parents.”

The burly man suddenly closed his eyes, holding back the annoyance caused by the other person’s words. The young man seemed to need a little time to answer questions from his biological father. Unbeknownst to them, someone was secretly listening to the conversation.

Damn, it! How could my tongue suddenly slip and talk about my love? If the situation goes worse like this, then I can’t help but have to share information about Atvertha. Hopefully, Mom and Dad will not be surprised if they find out who she really is. I hope so, thought Armen, who seemed reluctant to disclose information about his immortal lover.

“To be honest, Atvertha is not an ordinary woman. She is the Moon Goddess.”

The husband and wife looked at each other. They were so surprised as if the answer was just a slapstick. “Do not joke to us, Armen! How can be a Moon Goddess who lives in the sky want to come to Earth and fall in love with you. it is impossible! A Goddess must have married the immortal God!” Lebrazht denied.

“I can prove to Mom and Dad that what I said was not a lie!” said Armen.

“Okay. Prove it to us. You must introduce Atvertha to us as soon as possible or I will set you up with Atlanta!”
