The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Two days later,

A slender woman appeared to arrive in a forest on Earth. About a hundred meters away, there was a young man who was tying firewood while occasionally wiping the sweat that fell from his forehead. Longing for her lover was clear in the girl’s eyes. “That is my man. I hope he does not mind my presence.”

That young lady walked towards the man, while the opposite sex did not even notice the presence of an immortal goddess at all. “The weather is always hot during the day, but for the past two days, especially at night, it has been raining heavily. Is that a sign of something that will happen?”

The long-haired woman was behind the target. Without hesitation, the beautiful goddess patted the thirty-five-year-old man’s shoulder. This action made the burly man suddenly turn his head, and then he was silent for a moment, as if he could not believe the scene he was witnessing, while the violet-eyed girl tried to smile, even though it was in vain.

“Armen. How are you?” The Moon Goddess broke the ice between them.

The sunlight was shining brightly, making the girl’s pale face very clearly visible. The young guy looked surprised as if he had just woken up from a daydream. Without hesitation, a man, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-two centimetres, as soon as possible hugged the interlocutor tightly as if he did not want to be separated again.

“Honey, I miss you so much. Where have you been? I am very worried,” said Armen while holding back the feelings of longing, confusion, and annoyance that he had been holding in for a long time.

“I have been at the palace all this time. I am sorry for making you worry.” Atvertha felt guilty, but she had no other choice.

“Did your parents know about your coming here?” Armen asked while still hugging his beloved lady.

“No. Mom and Dad did not know that I came to Earth.” Atvertha answered honestly, then dared to return the hug from the man she loved with all her heart.

“Have you found evidence that they were involved in forest fires and the deaths of many werewolves?” A man with thick eyebrows remembered the incident two days ago, so this question made Atvertha think for a few seconds.

“I have not gotten that proof yet, but I found that Mom and Dad were involved in something else.” After answering that, the green-eyed young man let go of the hug and then stared at his lover’s face without blinking.

“What was that, Honey? Are they talking about something?” For some reason, the eldest son of the couple, Lebrazht Lugthna and Norah Bitnantzh, started to have bad feelings, but he had not yet expressed them honestly to the opposite sex.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“They…” Atvertha deliberately did not continue the sentence because she felt embarrassed for her mortal man. However, the brave guy who saw the change in his immortal goddess lover’s attitude tried to get information from her.

“What about your parents, my love? Do they forbid us to meet?” Armen asked but tried not to press Atvertha.

“They… they set me up with an immortal god, but I dislike him.” A woman with thin eyebrows answered with a little hesitation. Initially, the girl was reluctant to share the information she knew, but Atvertha still did it because she thought that Armen had the right to know the real situation.

The handsome man’s expression turned sad. I know that it is difficult to have a special relationship with an immortal goddess, but when I heard that my love was about to be matched by an immortal god. Damn! I wish I could do something more, but I am just a human being. I do not have the strength like my lovely lady, Armen lamented to himself.

“Armen.”

This greeting made the owner of the name wake up from his reverie. He looked back at the woman he loved with all his heart. “Yes, honey?”

“I will not give up in this situation, but if you really can’t… I can understand.” The two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman felt sad, so she stuttered a little when she said those words. Armen spontaneously shook his head, so happiness began to appear in the girl’s heart, but she could not yet express it openly.

“I do not want to give up, honey. I know I am just a mortal, but that does not mean we should stop our relationship.” Armen made a statement while holding both of Atvertha’s hands. That Crossroads Lady was increasingly convinced that the man she had fallen in love with was, indeed, the right man to be her mate.

“Thank you, Armen.” That was all Atvertha could say. The guy smiled sweetly so that the situation touched the wallflower girl’s heart.

“I will face your parents, even though they hate our kind. I will prove that mortals are not as bad as they think.” Armen tried to convince Atvertha. Doubts and a little fear about meeting his lover’s parents did exist, but the young man tried to brush them aside.

“Are you sure, Armen? Would it not be better if we-” That smart girl seemed hesitant to finish her words, so the other person became curious.

“Why, Honey? Are you doubting me?” Armen frowned because he did not understand what Atvertha was worried about.

“I do not want to cause you trouble with Mom and Dad’s behaviour.” Atvertha tried to keep the problem away from Armen and his family, but on the other hand, she was not willing to end their relationship.

“Why are you talking like that, honey? Have they planned something bad for our people, but you do not want to say it?” A brave guy started to push the girl a little because he wanted Atvertha to reveal the truth that she knew.

“I do not know what Mom and Dad’s plans are yet, and that worries me.”

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet because that mortal man had not yet commented on the words of the opposite sex. The sky, which was originally bright, started to turn grey, so the muscular man noticed and looked up. Atvertha was stunned and then took the same action. Armen looked down again and, afterwards, looked at his lover. “Honey, I have to go home immediately before it rains. I do not want to get this firewood wet, or it will be difficult to use.”

I actually still want to be with Atvertha, but if we stay here too long, while the weather is like now, then the rain could come at any time, thought Armen, as he turned away from Atvertha. He started carrying firewood, which was neatly tied and ready to go home. That silver-haired woman watched her mortal guy’s movements.

“May I come with you?” The Moon Goddess asked so seriously that the man froze for a few seconds as if he could not believe what he had just heard. However, that young man did not want to waste any more time in order to avoid getting caught in the rain when he returned home.

“Are you sure, my love?” Armen seemed to convince himself. However, Atvertha was seen nodding, so the young man was happy and had no more doubts.

“Yes, I am sure. Can I join with you? I want to meet your parents again if you do not mind.” A woman who always lived in Lord Helion’s palace had made her choice, and she was reluctant to back down.

The man who had been betrothed to Atlanta without further ado smiled sweetly, so this made the young lady’s heart beat faster. “Okay, honey. Let’s go!”
