54 Her unseen child 2

Oberon burst into the room, his eyes landed on Nyx who was cuddling herself and cooing sweet words into an invisible baby.

"Nyx?" He called.

She turned to look at him, "Yes?" She stood up.

"Who are you talking to?"

She exchanged glances with the baby, "I.. am.. well, I was.." she gulped down nervously, wondering how to explain the child to them.

"Who are you taking to?" He walked towards her.

She shrunk with fright when he came near to her.

"I was talking to the baby."

He arched his brow, "A baby? Whose baby?"

She pointed to the child, who sat on the floor, darting his large eyes.

He turned to look at where her hand was pointed but didn't see anyone.

"Are you crazy? There is no one there."

She creased her brows, "What do you mean? He is right there," she pointed to the place where he sat down.
