Let Me Go My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 569

Chapter 569 Don't Leave Me
*Selena*

I stood there, blinking in disbelief after hearing my wolf speak.

How... how was it possible?!

Damon couldn't be my mate.

He used to insist on this all the time, but I didn't want anyone else other than Zander. I truly loved him.

"Selena!" Damon whispered urgently, looking at me intently. Ignoring him, Zander stood by my side.

"What did you just say?" Zander looked shocked and hurt as his eyes bore into mine. We had just mated and marked each other, and now this revelation was something I couldn't help, as the feelings intensified with each second I looked into Damon's eyes.

"As I told you I have always known that you are my mate, Selena. But now you can also feel it. You belong to me, always and forever. Let's go home," Damon said, extending his hand towards me. Zander, however, slapped Damon's hand away.

“She is my mate, my Luna, the mother of my son. She doesn't belong to you,” Zander snapped fiercely.

“Whatever you say, Alpha King, won't change the fact that she is my mate,” Damon fought back.

“Damon!” Zander growled a warning; his claws came out, and his eyes turned red. Lyon was surfacing and he was ready to attack Damon, who was equally furious. Damon's teeth pulled out of his lips as his claws grew longer, and he took a position to counter the Alpha King.

“No! Please, stop it,” I intervened, pushing them apart before they could kill each other.

“Reject her!” Zander thundered.

“No. I won't,” Damon growled. “Vampires never reject their mates, unlike you werewolves. We cherish and treasure our mate,” Damon mocked, causing Zander to snarl in annoyance.

“Selena, reject him,” Zander demanded, turning to face me.

I stood frozen, surprised by the unexpected desire for Damon. I couldn't comprehend the fog that clouded my thoughts, and the words that left my mouth were, “I want to be with my mate.”

Zander looked hurt and shocked, staggering a step back.

“Mom! Dad! What's going on?” Austin ran to hug me, but Zander pulled him away.

“Mom has chosen him over us, son,” Zander spat with disgust.

“Reject her, Alpha King! Selena is meant to be with me, and she has accepted she wants me,” Damon demanded.

“I won't reject her or accept her rejection. She is mine, whether she is destined to be with me or not. She will be mine as long as I am alive,” Zander roared his claim, and my heart cried. Arena was saddened as well. She felt a connection with Lyon and Zander in the woods.

"But she will always choose me over you, Alpha King. I am taking her with me," Damon snarled.

"She won't go anywhere," Zander said, his protective instinct on full display.

"Dare to stop me!" Damon challenged as he took my hand in his, pulling me away from Zander.
