Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 618

Chapter 618 Summoned By The Council

"Mother, why can't I save the realm without marrying a god?" Selena argued, frustration lacing her voice. "Because marrying a god will multiply your powers," the high priestess replied calmly, though her tone held a firm finality. "You are not a complete goddess, Selena. You only carry the essence of the Moon Goddess as her descendant."

"But what about my mate? I've been married to him, and we have a son," Selena questioned defiantly as her voice trembled with emotion.

They called her the queen of the realm, worshipped her as their goddess, but as others continued to dictate her life, she felt less like a queen with authority and more like a pawn in their game.

"He has forgotten about you," the high priestess reminded Selena. "They all have forgotten you, even your son. If it weren't for the mate bond, Alpha Zander would never have acknowledged you, Selena. You don't matter to them, to Alpha Zander. So it's better you stay here and fulfill your duty as the queen of the Lunar Realm.

Selena's heart sank at the revelation her mother had just made. The high priestess saw her daughter's face fall, and for a fleeting moment, guilt clawed her chest, softening her resolve. But she quickly buried it beneath the heavy cloak of duty.

She was helpless-bound by the responsibility she bore. To save the Lunar Realm, she had no choice but to break her daughter's heart, to force Selena to turn away from her mate and embrace the fate that awaited her as their queen.

"But then why did the Moon Goddess pair me with Alpha Zander if we weren't meant to be together?" Selena argued, her voice cracking with frustration and pain.

The high priestess let out a sigh of disappointment, her eyes softening briefly before hardening once more.

"Sometimes even the Moon Goddess makes mistakes," she murmured. Turning her back to Selena, she hid the turmoil in her gaze, unwilling to let her daughter see the truth in her eyes.

Selena and Zander were true mates; no force, not even the Moon Goddess herself, could change that. Their bond had been sealed by destiny, not in this lifetime, but thousands of years ago. True mates were fated to find each other in every life, drawn together by an unbreakable thread of fate.
