The Witch and Her Four Dangerous Alphas

Chapter 96: Chapter 96: The Witch Mother’s Secret

Selene kept staring at Witch Mother, waiting for more reply. But the older woman only looked at her in silence. She did not show anger, sadness, or even surprise.

Selene was not sure if she would say anything at all. Witch Mother was always like this. In the past too, she rarely replied. Sometimes she would listen and let people talk but give no answer. She had always lived apart from the coven, choosing a life of solitude.

Even though Witch Mother had stopped involving herself in the coven’s matters long ago, she was still the most respected figure in the witch province. She no longer gave orders, no longer made decisions, and did not care how the coven was faring. Still, everyone called her Witch Mother.

It was not because of power or position. It was because of respect. Every witch, young or old, carried deep respect for her. They knew her sacrifices, they knew her strength, and they knew she was the strongest among them.

Even after she chose to live her life alone, away from the coven, no one dared to speak against her. No one judged her. Instead, they only bowed their heads when her name was mentioned.

Most witches in the coven respected her deeply, but they also feared her. Hardly anyone dared to come to this house, afraid to disturb her peace. Selene was one of the few exceptions.

For Selene, this respect was easy to understand. Witch Mother’s presence alone carried weight. She did not need grand robes; she did not need thrones or luxury. Sitting in her plain gown, in her simple house, she still looked higher than anyone else. She was Witch Mother, and that was enough.

Instead, she felt close to her. She had come here many times, and even when Witch

Mother’s mate had betrayed her. That betrayal had cut her so deep that she turned away from the world. She left everything behind, choosing to live alone. Perhaps

calm, her gesture so steady that it was clear—she would not answer anything more. The silence that followed was heavy. Selene opened her mouth to ask but stopped. She knew it was useless. The
