1279 Felberta’s Troubles.
“Haah… it is done…”
1
Nux sighed as he closed his eyes and enjoyed Felberta’s care.
“Well, that is good. With Dominic marked by the Slave Seal, you can always deal with him later. For now, you only need to take some rest and get back to your full health.
Not to mention there is already Amaya interrogating him, I am sure she would already have all the answers we would need to know about before you even wake up.”
Felberta replied in a gentle tone.
Right now, Nux had placed his head on his wife’s lap, Fel also continuously massaged his head so that he could deal with the headache he was feeling. Honestly, even with the headache, the current situation was no different than heaven.
Felberta was gentle, using just the right amount of power in her massage, she also made sure to periodically play with Nux’s long hair and as if she could sense Nux’s feeling, the moment he felt any sort of discomfort, she stopped what she was doing and addressed the issue.
“Fel… you are the best…”
Nux exhaled a big sigh as he said those words.
From his voice, it was clear how relaxed of a state he was in.
“I know.”
Felberta replied with a confident smile on her face. Nux couldn’t help but chuckle. He didn’t need to open his eyes to see what sort of expression was there on his wife’s face. He could already imagine it in his head.
“Thank you, Fel.”
Suddenly, Nux spoke up.
His tone indicated that his words were heartfelt.
Hearing that, a wry smile appeared on Felberta’s face.
“This is the least I could do for you, Nux.”
“No, whatever you do for me is always the best because I can feel your love through your actions, and that alone, means the world to me.” Nux’s reply was quick.
This time, he wasn’t trying to joke around or flirt with Felberta. His head wasn’t exactly in the right place to do that, everything he said came right from his heart, without being filtered by anything.
Felberta, obviously knew that, she knew how much Nux loved her and how much she meant to him, however… “My actions being filled with love isn’t enough, Nux. All their actions are filled with endless love for you as well. My actions are replaceable. There is nothing I can do that they cannot.”
Felberta spoke up, letting her feelings out.
“…”
This time, Nux turned silent.
This wasn’t the first time he noticed Felberta’s feelings, he had noticed Felberta’s complex before and honestly, he wanted to deal with it as soon as possible but… He just didn’t have a solution.
Telling her that he loved her wasn’t an answer.
What Felberta faced was a complicated problem.
Felberta was an amazing woman. She was once a Viscount, so she had experience in being a leader. She was also a strategist who could come up with strategies. She also worked hard to improve her strength, so she was good at fighting. She was beautiful, mature, responsible, and everything any woman would hope to be.
Felberta was an allrounder who could practically do anything, she was honestly a jack of all trades, however, The people around her were specialists.
Skyla had the ability to mix in with any person she met. The girl could even befriend a mortal enemy and no one would be surprised.
Lane was like Nux’s shadow, always there for him the moment he needed her. Heck, the sole reason she turned into a Shadow Demon was to stay inside his Shadow. That was practically her new home.
Edda… well, that woman was a pervert so she doesn’t count.
Thyra… it doesn’t even have to be mentioned. She was an excellent assassin who once taught Nux. She was half responsible for what Nux is today and even now, her role in Nux’s life was irreplaceable.
Allura was the same, after becoming a Succubus, the woman had completely changed, she understood Nux more than anyone else and honestly, most of the new women who accepted Nux had her hand somewhere in the story.
Amaya, well, again, there is no need to mention her. She was the woman whom Nux relied on the most.
Ember was on her way to take the Dragon Trials, with how hard she was working, everyone knew that she would come out as a completely different person. And with her being a Past General, her ability to lead people and devout themselves to a cause was extremely valuable.
Evane was a gentle soul who would be focusing on the Healing Magic once she became an Elf.
Astaria, well, she was the only true disciple of Vyriana, her strength, according to Vyriana, would soon be unmatched.
Melia was the child of the Bloodheart Family, the only Vampire around Nux. Her strength wasn’t something to scoff at either.
Aisha was the bearer of Primordial Blood, her abilities were off the charts, not to mention the woman practically went through a rebirth just to get Nux’s attention.
Riona, again, just like Amaya, was an amazing strategist, not only that, she was also a wonderful leader and an assassin, the woman was practically a gem that couldn’t be replaced by any other.
And Felberta…
Well, the first wife was surrounded by all these monsters…
The ‘specialists’ in their respective fields. Anything Felberta was good at, they were better and of course, they all loved Nux as much as she did.
Because of this, Felberta found herself to be left out. She felt like she was being overshadowed by all these amazing women around her.
A woman who could one day disappear and no one would notice.
A Jack of all Trades but Master of none.
Or in other words, a useless card that would never have her moment with Nux.
Or… that was at least what Felberta thought and these thoughts continued to chew her down.
Nux knew this, he could feel Felberta’s inferiority complex, but again, he had no way to help her. His wives were monstrous, they were all amazing women and honestly, Felberta is just like them as well.
She was a woman who had it all. However, no matter how many times Nux tried to explain that to her, she always treated it as him trying to cheer her up and never believed him.
Her inferiority complex was simply too strong for her to believe that Nux’s words were actually true. All the proud and confident front she puts up, it was all just a way to hide her problems but… Well, it wasn’t helping anyone.
Nux knew he had to do something about it now only if he knew what that ‘something’ was.
Of course, he tried looking for help as well. His first option was Vyriana, the woman however just shook her head and snorted, ‘She feels that she is not special? Well, that is because it is the truth. She is not. Not everyone can be ‘special’. Just embrace yourself and get over it. What’s the issue here? Not like there aren’t billions of other people like her facing the same issue. Heck, I’d say she is in a lot better place than most people. Just tell her to straighten up and get over it.’
Of course, the Dragon Woman wasn’t having any of it.
And Nux, obviously, couldn’t take her advice. It was a mistake to come to a Dragon anyway, since when has Dragons been understanding?
However, this time, things were worse,
Even the woman who always had a solution to all his problems shook her head,
‘It is something she needs to solve on her own, Nux. You cannot do everything for her. She needs to realize her worth herself.’ Amaya replied.
Not satisfied by the answer, Nux tried to look for other answers, however, he also realized that it wasn’t something he could openly discuss with others. Felberta was trying her best to hide what she was feeling from others, he couldn’t possibly reveal everything while trying to search for answers.
And honestly, deep down, he also knew that what Amaya said was the truth.
He couldn’t help Felberta in this case. She needed to do it on her own.
For now, the only thing he could do was shower her with endless love and help her forget her worries, even if it was for a short time.
Thinking about it, Nux suddenly grabbed Felberta’s hand that was massaging his head, Felberta paused, Nux then looked into the woman’s eyes and with a playful smile on his face, “Why don’t I show you what you can do that others cannot?”
Obviously, the intentions behind those words were anything but pure.
“Nux, you need to rest.”
“Bu-”
Nux wanted to retort but,
“You need to rest, Nux Leander.”
Felberta’s tone became firmer.
She may be feeling down comparing herself with the rest of Nux’s wives, however, she wasn’t going to allow Nux to risk his health for a momentary pleasure no matter how much she wanted it.
“You will rest, while I-”
Suddenly, Felberta froze.
And it wasn’t just her, Nux, and all his wives had a similar reaction.
‘Nux…’
Evane called out.
And with a solemn look on his face, Nux nodded.
‘They were all killed…’
The Black Order had made their move.
