Nyx had been conflicted for several days. She quietly observed Kat and found he seemed physically fine. From personal experience, she felt there was no problem. But she still doubted it. After much hesitation, Nyx decided to talk to Kai.

She believed Kai needed to get a thorough check–ups first to figure out what was going on.

She thought. If it could be treated, it would be a happy ending. If not, it wouldn’t matter too much, though it would be a slight regret. I wouldn’t despise kay because of it and would comfort him well.

With her mind made up. Nyx went to Kai’s room to wait for him to return from work.

Song on Kai’s bed, she mentally prepared for what she would say, while her mind wandered.

Soon, she couldn’t help but jump off the bed and pace around, her gaze eventually landing on a high shelf.

On the top shelf, there was a bottle, made of dark material, and although the contents were unclear, it looked like some kind of medicine bottle.

Normally. Nyx wouldn’t touch anything in her mate’s room, but driven by curiosity, she stood on a chair, and then climbed onto the desk, tiptoeing to reach the bottle,

The bedroom door opened, and Kai walked in unsuspecting, only to be greeted by this startling sight: Nyx was standing on the desk, arms raised high, her upper body leaning back, and she seemed unsteady, swaying,

“Nyx, be careful” He rushed over as quickly as he could.

Nyx felt a dizzying spin and, before she could regain her bearings, she was hazily caught in Kai’s arms.

She knew full well that she could steady herself and wouldn’t fall. But since Kai was concerned for her safety, she didn’t argue, instead raising her arms around his neck and affectionately brushing her face against his.

She successfully got hold of the medicine bottle, her goal for climbing to a higher place now accomplished.

She patted Kar’s arm, signaling him to put her down, and then carefully examined the bottle.

Upon seeing the bottle, Kai’s face turned pale.

“Nyx” His voice trembled as he grabbed Nyx’s wrist and took the bottle from her.

Seeing his obvious guilt and avoidance, Nyx thought, Is this something shameful? Does placing it on a high shelf mean he doesn’t want me to see it? Is it an antidepressant? Or is it a medication for regulating the body?”

She just weighed the bottle, noticing that it was half–empty. She thought, “So he has already consumed half of it. Kai must be anxious too. That’s why he’s been taking the medicine behind my back.
