NovelEnglishChapter 195: The Arrival
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Pursing my lips, I watched the trees swaying back out the window. I looked out the window and saw the smile on my face. I had won the battle against Michael.
But this victory was not mine alone. It was mine and my mate’s. My mate loved and cared for me, so he let me win. What better moment than this?
When I almost reached my pack, I started to get anxious again. I mentally rehearsed what I would say after seeing Robert, made several drafts that didn’t feel right, and my fingertips turned cold. Every time I got nervous, my body would react like this.
I hadn’t seen Robert for months, and whenever I heard about him, it was from someone else. He almost killed me in the woods and marked me. He didn’t get away with it because of Michael.
But he paid a terrible price for it, and from that day on, there was no turning back. He lost his werewolf status, his dignity, his status, and even his parents, who had always valued him.
In terms of mate connection, he had never owned me, and there was no such thing as losing me. What he thought he had was what he thought he had. But I thought he had Alison with him if they were in love.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI didn’t know if Robert would hate me for any of this, even though I didn’t think it was my fault. I wanted to go to him just to put an end to the past. We were so unseemly last time.
Now that I was not stuck in a relationship with Robert, I could look at it from the top from an outsider’s perspective.
I felt sorry for Robert and Alison because of what happened to them and their not-so-bright future. Their world had collapsed so suddenly that Alison thought she would be the pack’s Luna that everyone respected, but suddenly she had nothing.
All I could do was care.
I glanced at Michael, who was still upset and thought it was unreasonable for him to be jealous. Robert and I had no feelings for each other before Michael showed up.
Even out of possessiveness and seeing what I did when Joanna showed up, I tolerated my mate and Joanna living in the same house for so long. Even then, Michael thought I was overdoing it. And now, I was seeing Robert one last time.
But I had to admit, Michael’s jealous boyish side was kind of cute.
Michael didn’t hide his anger from me. He didn’t even look at me for the entire ride, even though we were now in the woods outside our pack. In a little while, we’d be at Alpha John’s house.
I could understand how Michael felt right now. After all, when Joanna appeared to me, my heart was filled with jealousy and anger.
I would have wanted to tear Joanna apart with my claws. Michael almost did that to Robert in the forest. I did not doubt that he felt the same way now.
But I brought Michael here today. I had to let Michael control himself.
Robert had suffered enough. If Michael did anything to him, he would die.
I couldn’t help but think back to the first time I saw Robert.
I was still in high school, and Robert was the star of our entire high school. He was tall, handsome, and athletic, and everyone loved him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI looked at him on the playground, and my heart would race, and I would shout his name like the girl next to me.
My whole high school was in love with him until graduation, when everything changed.
But these days, I thought that if Robert had accepted me as his mate, I might have been the school’s star for a while, and Robert might have succeeded as Alpha.
But then what?
Michael would still be there, just like he said he would be. Even though Robert and I had become mates, he would still feel a unique bond with me.
As the royal Lycans and werewolves differed, they could have taken the werewolf’s mate, and Robert would be dead by now.
So it was all just a fluke.
The way Michael described it made me feel like an object, but inevitably, in the werewolf world, the royal Lycans had a higher power.
They took it for granted that everything belonged to them. Either way, Robert wouldn’t have ended up well because of me unless he didn’t compete with Michael for me.
The mate relationship was a double-edged sword. There were pros and cons to it. There was nothing we could do to change it. We had to accept it.
