Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 563 High Priestess

"Arabella!" Alexander cried loudly with an ear-deafening scream. He took out the silver dagger from Arabella's chest with his shaking hand and threw it away. He called out her name, but she had already died the moment the silver pierced her heart. Zephyr scooted back in shock, his eyes stony and blank as he looked at Arabella's dead form. Suddenly, Alexander fell to the ground, his breathing stopping. Zephyr was dumbfounded and couldn't understand what had just happened. The heavy wind began to flow, and the sky turned red and gloomy while birds began crying and tides rose in rivers.

"THEY WERE TRUE MATES!" Suddenly, a voice from above resonated in the surroundings. "IF ONE OF THEM DIES, THE OTHER WILL ALSO DIE. THEY WERE MEANT TO BE TOGETHER!" Zephyr looked at the dead bodies of Alexander and Arabella entangled in each other's arms and then looked up above.

He lost everything in that moment: his power, his immortality, and his love.

"Then what happened to Zephyr?" I couldn't stop myself from asking.

"Zephyr lost his powers, becoming an ordinary man. However, his loyal warlock ministers and commanders concealed his mortality from everyone, ensuring he ruled without disturbance. He lived and died as a human, only to be reborn as the son of the formidable Vampire King, Silas Shadowborn," Damon revealed.

"That's... that's you," I exclaimed, astonished.

"Yes!" he smirked. "I recollect everything since my rebirth and now seek my Arabella."

"And Selena is Arabella?!" I blurted out, my expression contorted with a mix of shock and disbelief.

"Yes, she is my Arabella," Damon affirmed.

"Is she truly your mate?!" I inquired, suspicion lacing my tone. That couldn't be true because she was Alexander's true mate.

"She is mine and mine alone!" he snapped fiercely. "I know I am destined for her, and she is fated for me. She only needs to realize it, and that moment will arrive very soon," Damon predicted with a hint of ominous certainty.

"Ah, so you cast a spell on her, and that's why she is drawn to you," Father remarked.
