Blessed by Night-Chapter 169 Hope at What Cost?

Luna wasn't as over the idea of having a child as she wanted Malachi to believe.

But because she knew that their sudden loss of an opportunity had nothing to do with him, she never said anything about it.

The last thing that she wanted was to ever make him feel worse about it than he already did.

And so, Luna had been dealing with the pain of this loss all on her own.

But after hearing Nyx's words, she was unable to contain herself and desperately grabbed on to this small thread of hope.

Malachi quickly grabbed a blanket from the couch and draped it around the shaking woman.

"Mei, what are you doing up? You still need to-"

"I-I'm fine, I just need to know if what your mother said is true!"

Luna pushed past Malachi and stood in front of the waiting goddess.

Her eyes were filled with hope, and she took her hands like he was about to start begging for a reason to hang on.

"Please tell me… that what you've just said is true."

"It is, my darling girl. Please don't look so despondent, it breaks my heart to see." Nyx said sweetly. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Tears started to run down from Luna's face in droves and she threw her arms around the ancient goddess.

Nyx was admittedly surprised, but she accepted the embrace warmly and rubbed her back.

"Sweet girl… are you not concerned about the fact that you will have to lay with him as a nightmare?"

"Of course not!"

Luna suddenly separated from Nyx and ran to Malachi and embraced him firmly.

"I don't care what he is or what he might turn into.. I just want him to be the father of my child!"

"Are you sure about this, Mei?" Malachi asked worriedly. "You don't know what I could-"

"I know that you wouldn't hurt me! You cannot try to talk me out of this, I won't lose this chance again, darling!" She cried.

Malachi felt his own expression contort into one of pain.

His worries and concerns were valid just as her longing for this wish to come true was.

But he wanted her to be safe above all else, and she was willing to sacrifice anything if it meant that she could have a baby.

His baby.

This truly was an uncomfortable situation for both of them to be in.

"Guys… we have time to figure this out." Sei suddenly said.

She stood up from her place on the couch and embraced the both of them.

"At the end of the day, everyone here loves each other and only wants the best for one another. There is a way for you both to have a child AND ensure that Luna remains safe and healthy. We just have to find it together."

As expertly as always, Sei had alleviated the worries and stress of both of them with only a few words and a gentle tone.

The eyes of the two of them softened up immensely and they immediately brought their lips together to act as confirmation of their commitment.

Malachi held both girls fondly as he started to plan out next steps.

In order to have a child, he had to get control over that thing inside of him first and everything else could fall in later.

However, there was one important thing that he was still forgetting about.

His hand lightly brushed against Luna's stomach, and he looked towards his mother for more hope.

"Any chance that you've got some secret method to heal that part of her?"

Nyx shook her head, much to the dismay of Malachi & Luna.

However, they were quickly able to get a hold over themselves.

They already had received a great deal more hope today than what they thought possible, so that was more than enough for them.

As long as they had one half of the equation solved, they could focus on solving the rest later at their own pace.

No matter how long it took, the two of them were determined to-

"I don't have any method to heal you, but you don't really need to ask me since you already have one."

""…""

"…?"

""….PARDON?!""

Nyx shrugged and pointed above her head up into the ceiling.

"Just ask that busty vampire woman you brought back from the gate for help. Using her would be a lot quicker than going to hunt for an item or potion."

"Nadine?? What can she do??" Anna asked.

"Her race have stellar regenerative capabilities that are far beyond that of you blessed. Just ask her to turn Luna, and then she will also have the ability to regenerate her organs." Nyx explained this like it was obvious.

Had no one truly thought of this as a solvable scenario??

Judging by the looks on the faces of everyone else in the apartment, it didn't seem like that was the case.

Who knew?

"I… can be whole again?" Luna said shakily.

"You have never not been whole, my dear. But if you are referring to the ability to regrow your womb, then yes. Should you desire it, you can take that step and have it returned to you."

Luna's knees gave out from underneath her as she fell to the ground, allowing Malachi to catch her.

It was clear judging by the look in her eyes that she was completely frozen with disbelief, and her boyfriend wasn't exactly any better.

"Ma… can you give us a minute to process all this and sort ourselves out?" Malachi asked.

Nyx smiled at him sweetly as she nodded in acceptance.

"Of course, I'll leave all of you to talk about this amongst yourselves. In the meantime I'm going to go visit your sister and send her my love."

Nyx's body started to break apart right before the eyes of everyone present, and a moment later she vanished from the living room.

Once she was gone, a silence persisted among the group for a while.

Malachi held Luna in his lap as the two of them sat in the ground; both of them locked deep into their thoughts.

"Anna…?"

"Yea, Luna? Do you need something?"

"I-I'm fine it's just I need you to do me a favor. Can you run upstairs and grab Nadine for me…? I have some things I would really like to ask her."
