Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 579

Chapter 579 The Rogue King
*Zander*

As I was about to leave, Maddox came by my side.

"Alpha, we have a message," Maddox informed me, his voice carrying a sense of urgency. I nodded, and he showed me a video message on his phone. The screen displayed the rogue king, a cowardly figure hidden behind a mask, his voice dripping with malice as he delivered his demands. He taunted me, informing me that he had my son and wanted to see me. I handed the phone back to Maddox and turned my gaze towards the vast expanse of the clear sky above. But ominous signs loomed on the horizon, as dark clouds began to gather, threatening to obscure the sun's rays.

"Let's prepare to fulfill the wishes of the rogue king and go to meet him," I declared, my voice resonating with determination.

"What?" Avery gasped, her surprise evident in her voice. "Are you really going to meet him?" Her tone shifted suddenly, filled with worry. I offered her a calm smile.

"Yes," I replied, meeting her gaze steadily. "He has my son, so I have no choice but to listen to him." I nodded.

"Zander, I won't let you go to see the rogue alone. I will come with you," Avery insisted.

I paused, considering her offer, and glanced at Maddox. He nodded subtly, his eyes reflecting a steely resolve.

"Okay," I replied to her, my tone firm and unwavering.

The Rogue King had demanded that I meet him alone, without my people or my beta. He knew very well that I would do anything for Austin, and he was right. As I reached the place he had mentioned, which was far away from my pack and nestled in an abundant valley across the hills, the air was thick with tension. Lone wolves prowled the perimeter, their eyes filled with malice.

The filthy rogues patrolled every boundary, their movements aggressive as they searched for any sign of threat. I stood among them, outwardly calm but seething with suppressed fury. They approached me, searching for weapons, but I had come here unarmed. I couldn't help but feel amused when they didn't bother to search Avery, allowing her to pass unharmed. I smiled inwardly, knowing their intentions. They led me towards a small, decrepit building where their cunning king awaited.

"Finally, Alpha King, we meet!" The rogue king greeted me with a wicked smile, though half of his face was obscured by a mask.

"Rogue King, you didn't have to go to such lengths to meet me. You could have simply sent a message," I said, my voice dripping with mockery. The Rogue King laughed bitterly in response.

"Alpha King, I know how much you've been itching for this meeting," he gritted his teeth. "But this time is different. You're without your guards, without your pack, and I must say, it's quite a sight to behold."

I couldn't help but scoff at his words. "A true alpha is never helpless, whether he's alone or without his army. It's a misconception to think you can make me defenseless. I am still here because I choose to be," I roared, my voice echoing with dominance and determination.
