Blessed by Night

The sound of buttons being mashed furiously was echoing all throughout Bianca\'s living room. In addition to that, there was more than a fair amount of trash talk being thrown around as well. "Get that weak shit out of here, this is my house!"

"You\'re trash, babe! Step your game up!"

"You\'re cheating!"

"So are you!"

Anyone who looked into Bianca\'s living room would have absolutely no idea what was going on. The both of them were sitting side by side on the couch, in nothing but their underwear. How they got here was really a rather simple and easy to grasp answer. Bianca plays dirty. After losing the first two matches back to back, she unzipped her jacket and revealed her generous bust that was only barely contained in her lace bra. Mal immediately lost the next three games. Frustrated, he took off his own shirt and continued to play, evening the odds. The next two games were divided evenly among them, but Bianca couldn\'t accept anything else than absolute victory. A few minutes later, she pulled off her jeans with burning red cheeks and sat back onto the couch, thoroughly distracting Malachi. He lost the next two games before his own pants came off, and Bianca faced her biggest disadvantage yet. Mal was good at controlling his body\'s impulses, but he wasn\'t a monk or a eunuch. After Bianca\'s cheating strip show, his body naturally showed an understandable reaction. And Malachi could feel her gaze that had yet to leave his exposed boxers. "You\'re seeming a little distracted, babe. Something on your mind?" He said sarcastically. "That\'s... not real, right?" Malachi chuckled a bit and continued to play oblivious. "Not sure what you\'re talking about. But you might want to start playing again or I\'m going to get this round."

When the voice of the announcer finally declared a flawless victory, Malachi finally put down the controller and looked at Bianca. "Something on your mind, B?"

"I\'m... your girlfriend, right..? So that means I can touch you whenever I want, yea?"

Without waiting for an answer, Bianca reached out with a slender hand and grabbed the large bulge that was resting on Mal\'s thigh. Based on the amateurish way he was being touched, Malachi knew instinctively that she must\'ve had little to no experience. "I\'ve never really done anything like this before... Are they all this... scary?" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Malachi didn\'t quite know why she referred to his appendage as \'scary\' but he shrugged off the perceived slight. "I think I\'m a little... above average." If Luna, Sei, or Anna heard his description of himself, they would all smack him on the back of the head simultaneously. Her inability to completely wrap it around her head should have been rather telling, but Bianca was still determined to see more. She snaked her hand up to the waistband of her boxers and prepared to pull them down when Malachi suddenly stopped her. "B... You might wanna get dressed."

Not understanding what was going on, Bianca\'s first guesses was utterly horrible. \'D-Did I do something wrong?\'

\'I must\'ve been too hasty!\'

\'Does he think I\'m a hoe!?\'

Malachi seemed to recognize that his girlfriend was falling into a panic and he pulled her in for a reassuring kiss. "I\'m sorry... but we kind of have a guest outside." He said apologetically. Bianca who was still delirious from the kiss, was having a hard time following the current twisting and turning of events. "Guest...?"

Malachi released her and pulled back on his pants and shirt while gesturing for her to do the same. When they were both covered, Malachi leaned back into the couch with Bianca in his lap. "Alright, you can come in now."

For a brief second, the lights within Bianca\'s apartment flickered and there was only total darkness. When the illumination returned, there was a beautiful woman with a shifting galaxy beneath her skin and long black hair that went below her butt. "W-W-W-W-Wha...?"

"It\'s always good to see you, mom but... you really have some terrible timing."

Bianca was able to deduce the identity of the mysterious woman in the room based on her unique appearance and the affectionate way Mal referred to her. Nyx snorted before folding her arms over her generous chest. "I\'ll have you know that I waited for as long as I could before I made my presence known. I didn\'t want to disturb you two during your date after all."

"Y-You\'ve been watching us the whole time?" Bianca said shakily. Nyx suddenly closed the distance between herself and Bianca and cupped her face in her cool hands.

"I have, and it\'s very nice to meet you, Bianca. You were quite charming before, but now you are a beauty without equal."

Nyx\'s words felt like they were laced with the same sedative as Malachi\'s, and the contents of her greeting only made her introduction that much more impactful. "Ah, I don\'t think... thank you very much for saying so."  Bianca said honestly. Nyx eventually released her and placed a hand on Malachi\'s cheek instead, looking at him significantly more tenderly. "It\'s been a while hasn\'t it, my son? It feels like we have so much to catch up on."

Malachi was slightly uncomfortable as he remembered the teasing words of Luna and Nyx\'s own relationship with her consort and eldest son, Erebus.

If she was capable of reading his thoughts, she didn\'t show any sort of reaction from them other than the small smirk that passed over her blue lips. "I heard that Erebus paid you a rather unnecessary visit... I am sorry about that. But he told me that you made a rather interesting ally since we\'ve been apart."

Malachi nodded and called out his personal nightmare Shear so that proper introductions could be made. The creature appeared in it\'s smaller, less prickly form and it excitedly sniffed around it\'s new surroundings. However, when it sensed Nyx\'s empty black eyes racing across it\'s body, and it started to tremble out of a sense of fear. This being... it felt like her master but it was incalculably more dangerous. It flashed out of sight, and reappeared behind a sofa on the other side of the room, trembling horribly behind a chair. "Well, that\'s surely a nightmare. Albeit a baby one." Nyx said in a small amount of surprise. "Nightmare?" Bianca asked. Nyx glanced at Malachi out of the corner of her eye before explaining.

 "They are... a scourge that will be coming to this world at a time I cannot specify. As of now, my son is the best defense against them, and you will also play an integral part in aiding him."

Bianca\'s eyes widened and she looked at Mal as if to confirm that his words were true. "I... haven\'t told anyone else except for Luna. I wanted all of you girls to live normally for as long as possible before shit hit the fan."

He suddenly looked at Nyx with determined eyes that seemed to have some sort of idea in mind. "I\'ve been waiting for you to show up again because I had something that I wanted to ask you. "

"Oh? And what might my darling boy need from me?" Nyx asked sweetly. Malachi shrugged off her awkward nickname and took a deep breath before making his sincere request. "I need you to..."

I think my girl\'s only red flag is that her favorite legendary pokemon is Heatran and I just can\'t get past that AnathaShesha
