Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 586 Unending Fear *Zander*

"My alpha, this seems to be just an altar and nothing special about it. Are you sure we could get some links about it from the past and that it's worth our time?" Maddox asked.

I understood his curiosity and confusion because what I could feel was beyond what he could see. I knew I felt a connection with this altar as if every stone on its wall wanted to tell me something. "Yes, Maddox, I am very sure. I need to know what other secrets it's hiding," I admitted, affirming my resolve.

"Okay, my alpha, let's leave this place. I will send a sample and information about it to our research team. I'm certain they will uncover everything about it," Maddox assured.

"No, I won't leave without Selena, Maddox. My instincts are telling me that something is about to happen and she isn't safe here," I declared, the restlessness still lingering in my chest.

"But she is the true descendant of the moon goddess, and no one can harm her," Maddox said, looking at me as if I had lost my mind. "She is more powerful than all of us."

Powerful or not, she was mine. Mine to care for, mine to protect, and I was not going to leave her alone. I had let her go once, and I regretted that day. Now I knew Damon was not her mate. He was surely up to no good, and I wouldn't leave my mate alone in this difficult time, whether she wanted me to or not.

"My Alpha instinct is never wrong, and I know how powerful she is, but she is equally emotional. She needs me, and I won't leave without her, and that's final," I announced with authority.

Maddox let out a breath in defeat and frustration before he finally conceded, "Okay, my Alpha, as you say."

Then he clicked some pictures and quickly sent them to our research team. He gave them an ultimatum, demanding every piece of information as soon as possible. We waited there, trying to decipher what was written in the ancient language. I had learned some ancient languages, but this seemed older as if it dated back to the creation of the world. The weirder thing was, that I still could not find Selena.

I winced at the possibility that she might have returned to the castle. The thought of that cunning vampire manipulating my mate and claiming her as his made me lose my mind. I wanted to kill that filthy vampire, tearing him apart with my bare hands.
