The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Fifty-five minutes later, at Lebrazht Lugthna’s house,

“What have you said to Atlanta that made her cry in the temple?”

That question in a rebuking tone startled Norah and Agtheo, who were in the living room. The mother and son came out of there and saw the head of the Lugthna family and the eldest son. A middle-aged man’s expression looked very angry, while the Moon Goddess’ lover remained calm. Even his face did not show any changes at all, as if nothing bad had happened.

“I told her not to expect me anymore, because I had a special lady.” The brown-haired young man answered honestly. He did not raise his voice despite being in a difficult situation. The tribal chief really wanted to hit Armen, but the man remembered that his son was an adult, so he had to cancel his intention.

“Why did you say that, huh? Do you still hope for that immortal goddess? Think realistically, Armen! We are not equal to them!” The hazel-eyed man did not understand the other person’s mindset. However, that guy was not afraid in the slightest and was determined to continue with his lovely lady.

“Atvertha and I have promised each other, Dad. I will never give up until she tells me to.” Armen tried to explain to Lebrazht, even though his biological father shook his head as a sign of disagreement with his opinion.

“Do not keep hoping for something that is uncertain. Your mom and I will nit be on Earth forever. What if I die and you have not been ordained to be my successor? Do not talk nonsense!” A man, who had a height of one hundred and eighty-five centimetres tall, still refused to budge. Armen accidentally looked away and found his mother and brother there. An intention arose within the young man.

“Do not worry, Dad. You still have another son.” Armen pointed at Agtheo and Norah, and Lebrazht’s gazes fell on their last son.

“What do you mean? Why do you involve Agtheo?” The hook-nosed man frowned, but Armen stared at Agtheo with deep hatred, making that young guy uneasy.

“When I almost died in the forest because of his actions, why did Dad not look for me? Were you happy that I died?” A thirty-five-year-old man could no longer bear to confront his hidden problems.

“What do you mean? Of course, we were looking for you, Armen. We did not know where you were.” Lebrazht still did not know where this conversation was going, but Agtheo was getting increasingly restless and could only remain silent.

“Okay. Then why did Dad not punish Agtheo after Atvertha told him that he was the perpetrator who hurt me? Was he so special that he escaped punishment?” These two questions had succeeded in making the silver-haired man speechless. Armen glared at his brother, and the young man became frightened.

“Agtheo, if you want to be chief of the tribe, just say so. There is no need for dirty methods to get rid of me. If I can choose my fate, it is better for me if you are the eldest child and me to be the last child. I never had evil thoughts towards you, but instead, you wanted to kill me, and you almost did it. Starting today, you are the only one who helps Dad so that you can be his successor. If you are jealous of me, you choose the wrong target.”

“Armen!” Lebrazht snapped. Armen looked coldly at his father so that his parents and brothers felt a change in the attitude of Lord Toghnath’s rival.

“Why did you yell at me? If Dad had been fair, then he would have been punished. What did you do? You just let it go as if the incident where I was dying and almost died was like a joke to you. Dad loves Agtheo more but does not want to admit it.” Armen made the three people there scared and curious at the same time.

“Do not mess around, Armen! You two are my sons. There is no way I would not love you.” The intonation of the head of the family’s voice also decreased. A man, who had a physical resemblance to the eldest son also denied all of Armen’s accusations.

“Dad. I do not want to marry Atlanta. You should match that aggressive girl with Agtheo because he is so ambitious about being your replacement that he wants to eliminate me.”

“You do not know how I feel!” Agtheo snapped. He was annoyed by these words, but Armen just grinned so that the young man’s courage sank again.

“I will never forgive your betrayal, Agtheo, since Atvertha told me that you were the one who made me die. Since then, you were not my brother. You are a stranger to me. If you want Dad’s position, take it. I do not need that.” A scary aura began to dominate the man so that neither of the two men there dared to object. Norah also shuddered because she felt something strange about Armen.

The situation in the house became quiet and tense. That brave guy was able to make Lebrazht and Agtheo look away from him. Norah felt the need to break down the stiff atmosphere so that it would not be like that anymore. “Son.” A woman with a sharp nose dared to say that one word.

The two young men turned towards their biological mother as soon as possible. “Yes, Mom?” they said simultaneously.

“No matter what happens, you are our children. Mom always loves Armen and Agtheo. Please do not fight.” Norah was crying, so Armen suddenly approached the fifty-two-year-old woman. The brown-skinned young man hugged the body of a woman who had given birth to him into the world.

“I always love you, Mom. I want to be your son in many lives if there is a rebirth.” Armen could not bear to see Norah cry, while Agtheo also wanted to do the same thing. However, he hesitated to approach his mother because his brother was already there.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

“Armen, please forgive Agtheo. He has indeed done something bad, but do not let any grudges arise between you.” Norah did not expect that her son’s anger had built up so much, and she was afraid that the two brothers would kill each other one day.

Armen felt hurt by Norah’s request. However, he did not want to hurt the woman he had always loved with all his heart. “Mom, I almost died, and no one could save me at that moment. I would have died long ago if Atvertha had not come to save me. How can I not have a grudge with Agtheo? I am still on good terms with him because I still respect Mom and Dad, but if Mom asked me to do more than that, I can’t promise it.”

In the evening, when everyone in the Agbazarth Chief’s house had gone to their rooms, a handsome young man was still sitting on the bed. He remembered all the events that happened in the morning and afternoon. Armen heavily exhaled as if he wanted to free his mind from all the burdens, but the brave guy couldn’t do it yet.

“I could not possibly forgive Agtheo, even if Mom asked me to,” Armen softly said while trying to get rid of all the negative thoughts from his brain.

He thought again of his beloved lady, which made the man smile. “Atvertha… will we meet tonight? I would better pray again to Lord Athalamaya so that he will help me again.”

A burly man started the same activities as last night, and two glowing figures appeared again. They returned to monitoring the behaviour of the Crossroads Lady’s lover. They just watched silently as if, after finishing praying, the handsome man got up and lay on the bed. “Hopefully, I can meet my girl again. I want to always be with her. If we get married, afterward, Agtheo will replace me as the future tribal leader, and I will help Atvertha. Hopefully, my dream will come true.”

When Armen fell asleep, the immortal god and his wife looked at each other. “I am increasingly confident in helping Lebrazht’s eldest son. He did not have a hidden agenda, unlike his brother.”

That grey-eyed woman nodded. “I agree with you, Hubby. I support your decision, but do not let Goddess Avtexia and Lord Helion know this favour. They could attack our family, and that would be very dangerous.”

The friendly-faced man was silent for a few seconds. He did not blame his wife’s words. “You were right. We have to help as subtly as possible, so the risk of Goddess Atvertha’s parents finding out is very small.”

“Yes, Hubby. Luckily, you and I rarely mix with the Sun Goddess’ family, so they do not suspect us.”

A man who had three children seemed to remember something, so, without further ado, he said to his wife, “Better you immediately call the Goddess Atvertha so that tonight she can enter Armen’s dream.”

“Okay, Hubby.” The six-hundred-year-old woman fell silent and then looked up. Meanwhile, Lord Athalamaya turned around as if he was about to do something.

In a room in Lord Helion’s palace

“Toghnath is really disgusting! I am sick of listening to all his chatter. If it were not for making an escape plan with Havento and Hertinoz, then I would not want to have to pretend.” A silver-haired girl looked irritated, so she grumbled. However, she did not raise his voice so that no one could hear the complaint.

The girl’s memory of the playboy continuing to talk to her endlessly annoyed her, but Atvertha could not do anything about it. “I wish I was already a full-time goddess and lived in my own realm so everything would be easy and fun. I have to get out of this palace soon.”

A virgin goddess was sitting on the chair she always used when studying. In the midst of the silence that fell, she could hear a voice calling her name, “Atvertha. Goddess Atvertha.”

“Hm? Who is that?” Atvertha asked, looking around the room. A silver-haired woman did not find anyone, so this moment made her confused and alert.

“Atvertha. Over here! Look down!” answered the mysterious voice. The owner of the name followed the instructions from the voice and was stunned because there, precisely in her mortal lover’s room, there was a husband and wife whom she already knew.

“Goddess Tathatea. Nice to meet you. What happened?” The only daughter of the couple, Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia, asked kindly.

“Come here, Goddess Atvertha. It would be best if you met Armen in dreamland. Have you forgotten him?” Lord Athalamaya answered the question, so the young girl remembered her mortal guy.

“Thank you for telling me, Lord Athalamaya. I am coming now.” Without wasting any time, a woman, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimetres tall, without further ado, disappeared and then flew to her destination. The disappeared enthusiasm had now returned because she would soon meet Armen.
