The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 584

Chapter 584: The Price of Revenge (I)

The Moon Goddess answered softly, "Yes."

Rose’s chest tightened so painfully that she struggled to breathe. "You heard him asking for your help?"

"Yes."

Rose gritted her teeth. "And you still let him die?"

The Moon Goddess fell silent and that silence hurt more than any answer could have.

Rose remembered that Edmond had once told her a story about the Moon Goddess.

According to him, the Moon Goddess had once lived among the other Gods in the heavens, but she was cast down after speaking against them because many of them could not remain faithful to a single partner.

Instead of listening to her, the other Gods punished her. They banished her from the heavens and stripped away most of her power, leaving her weak for centuries.

Things only began to change when some Lycans and werewolves learned about her story. They started building small temples for her, hoping that a Goddess who valued loyalty above everything else would bless their relationships and help them stay together.

It was also during that time that the Moon Goddess realized something.

Werewolves and Lycans could be far more loyal to their partners than humans. Their relationships were not held together by marriage alone. Once they chose someone and marked each other, they formed a bond that connected them in a much deeper way.

Perhaps that was why the Moon Goddess eventually grew fond of them.

As more Lycans and werewolves began worshiping her, she slowly regained the strength she had lost. In return, she started giving them her blessings. The more faith they placed in her, the more she gave back to them.

However, knowing that story only made Primrose more confused than Rose was.

Until now, Primrose had always believed that the Moon Goddess had been born from the pure love, grief, and sacrifice of the woman carved into the Mourning Veil Statue.

And that woman was Rose.

But if Edmond’s story was true, then the Moon Goddess had already existed long before Rose became the woman in the Mourning Veil Statue.

Then what exactly happened between Rose and the Moon Goddess?

The more Primrose learned, the less she understood.

At this point, Primrose was beginning to think that anything involving the Gods was unnecessarily complicated and enough to give her a headache.

On the other side, Rose suddenly grabbed the wooden box with both hands. "Then why are you talking to me now?!" she shouted, her voice breaking through the quiet room. "Why now?!"

The tears she had been holding back finally spilled down her cheeks.

"When our daughter died, where were you?" Rose demanded. "She was just a child! She didn’t even understand why people were hurting us!"

Her voice cracked, forcing her to stop and breathe.

"When they burned our home, where were you?" Rose continued, her words turning into sobs. "When everything Edmond worked so hard to build disappeared in front of us, where were you?"

Her strength finally gave out. Rose bent forward, curling herself around Edmond until her forehead rested against his.
