Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As we stood facing each other, we both heard footsteps coming from outside. Joanna and I looked at each other, ignoring the commotion out there. Our attention was on each other.
Joanna attacked me first. She threw herself at me and threw me to the ground.
I gasped for breath. I felt intense pain coming from my body. I felt Joanna press her claws on my body. I guessed that blood was flowing out from there.
I lay on the ground and reached out to cover my wound. Then, I found that the pain quickly disappeared.
The footsteps and the noisy voices around me grew louder. Joanna and I gradually could not ignore the noise around us.
“What is that sound?” Joanna asked in surprise.
I listened carefully. After becoming a royal Lycan, my hearing became sharper.
I heard a sound from the noisy and complicated voices that made my heart beat faster.

This voice was terrifying in many people’s ears, but in my heart, it was the most pleasant sound in the world. I could even smell a pleasant scent in the air, and my wolf became excited. I looked at Joanna and felt my fighting spirit rise.
“Is Michael here?” Joanna’s eyes darted uneasily.
I saw the intention to retreat in her eyes, but I didn’t plan to let her go this time.
While she was distracted, I leaped from the ground and lunged at her.
My claws went straight for her chest. She tried to resist, but she couldn’t stop my attack. But her resistance was effective. She deflected my attack a little, or I would have pierced her heart.
Even so, Joanna was severely injured. She took a few steps back and reached to touch her chest, her eyes filled with intense resentment and hatred.
I stood up and walked toward her.
I saw that she was using the power of a royal Lycan to heal the wound on her chest. If I let her go this time, she would come back unscathed the next time. I didn’t know what else would happen.
The conflict between Joanna and me was irreconcilable. I couldn’t tolerate her appearing again and ruining my life with Michael.
Joanna’s face twitched in pain, and I looked at her without pity. I grabbed her by the hair and threw her to the floor. She struggled under my hand and tried to hit me with her claws, but I only kicked her knees twice, and she fell to her knees.
I leaned into Joanna’s ear and yelled, “Michael is mine!”
I saw the look in her eyes, and it reignited my anger.
I slammed her head against the floor again and again. I acted like a crazy person, but I couldn’t help myself. I had suppressed my hatred for her for so long that I wanted her to die here.
Then, I felt a strong hand lift me.
I looked at that person in a daze, feeling that a warm and wonderful aura surrounded me.
I subconsciously relaxed my body and leaned against that person’s body.
At this moment, I realized that I had unknowingly turned back into a human, and my four limbs seemed to have exhausted their strength. The chest of the person supporting me was filled with power, giving me a comfortable and reassuring feeling.

An incomparably gentle and pleasant voice sounded in my ears. I knew that it was my mate.
Michael had finally arrived.
The long nightmare that had lasted for a day was finally over. My heart, which had been on edge all this while, was finally relieved. Exhaustion surged into my limbs from the inside out.
My hand was still tightly wrapped around Joanna. She had already fainted on the floor. I looked at her blankly for a moment before slowly letting go of my hand and holding Michael’s.
Michael lifted me and pulled me into his embrace. I placed my head on his shoulder and breathed in the scent of his body, which made me feel calm.
“Michael,” I called his name in a low voice.
“I’m here, baby.” Michael ran his hand through my hair. “Sorry I’m late, but everything’s okay now.”
I nodded on his shoulder and bit my lip to suppress the surging emotions in my heart.
I didn’t want to cry in shame here, but at this moment, when I saw my mate again after such a long day, a bunch of emotions welled up in my heart. I didn’t know what these emotions were, but I wanted to hold my mate and cry.
