Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

I looked out of the car window on the way to the airport.

I was still angry with Michael about what happened this morning. I agreed to Michael’s many unreasonable requests to make him leave smoothly.

I was angry at Michael for being insatiable and myself for not having any principles. As long as Michael said the word, I would give him the whole world.

I still didn’t understand why I was so eager to wake Michael up in the morning.

I was the one who didn’t want to leave my pack, and I was also the one who was afraid of going to the royal Lycan pack, but it was as if I was the one who was actively promoting it, and Michael didn’t care.

Michael was sitting next to me in a white shirt. He looked very relaxed and was stuffing some butter biscuits into his mouth. He had missed breakfast because he had woken up too late. It was his fault that he could only eat biscuits to fill his stomach.

I glanced at Michael. The collar of his shirt was wide open, revealing his chest muscles, which were much more attractive than the biscuits in his hand. The pants he had casually grabbed were a little tight, and I could see the outline of his body. I didn’t even look to know what was under his clothes. After all, I just had intimate contact with him this morning.

I looked away again and shifted my attention away from Michael.

We had good weather today. I hoped the weather would be as good as it was now when we arrived at the royal Lycan pack. I sighed and played with my phone in my hand. I felt nervous again.

I was not sure what I’d face in the afternoon. Michael told me about the royal Lycans’ attitude toward Courtney, and I didn’t think my situation would be any better than Courtney’s. An ordinary werewolf was not qualified to be the Prince’s mate. My instinct told me that the King would not like me, and I was at wit’s end.

“You seem a little nervous,” Michael suddenly said.

“What?” I turned to look at Michael. I didn’t even know that I was being so obvious. I was already trying to control myself and make myself look calm and composed.

Michael pointed at his heart and said, “I can feel it.”

I tugged at the corner of my mouth and tried to smile at Michael, but I failed.

This might be why someone’s mate relationship wasn’t so good. Your mood couldn’t be hidden from your mate, and your mate would always know your true thoughts.

“Don’t worry. I’ll always be by your side. I won’t leave you,” Michael said in a low voice.

Michael reached out and grabbed my hand, walking side by side to the plane.

This was the royal family’s private jet. It was not big and could take a few of us back this time. I also saw Samuel and Sasha next to the plane. Sasha was directing people to bring her luggage up, while Samuel consciously came to Michael’s side to help check on various things.

“You guys are really late. If you were any later, I’d have left with the plane,” Sasha said as she waved at us.

Michael shrugged. “If we aren’t here yet, the plane can’t possibly leave.”

“What?” Sasha raised an eyebrow. “Is a prince of the privileged class so proud?”

Michael humphed and said, “I’m just trying to make you understand the situation. This plane was initially meant to pick up Cecily and me. Without us, you’ll have to take a commercial flight back yourself. You’re taking advantage of us and still dare to threaten me.”

Sasha rolled her eyes and said in disdain, “You think I care?”

Sasha looked at me and said, “I just wanted to leave with Cecily. She’s much cuter than an arrogant person like you.”

Only then did I get the chance to interject. I raised my hand and greeted Sasha. “Hey, we’re late.”

“Oh, I’m late.” Sasha intentionally dragged out her words and looked at me with a teasing expression. “I understand.”

“The road was congested. What do you know?” Michael gave her a sharp look.

“If you say so, Your Highness.” Sasha looked around again and said, “Just you two? Courtney isn’t going back with you?”

“She said she still had some things to investigate and would return alone in two days,” Michael explained.

“The Lycan King has already given the order to set up an investigation team. What is she still doing here?” Sasha shook her head. “Courtney is just too responsible. She always wanted to see everything to the end.”

“Who said she wasn’t? That’s just how she is,” Michael said helplessly. “It’s just that I didn’t bring her with me this time. I’m afraid Brandon is going to go crazy again.”

“That brother of yours, I have to say, he and Courtney are a match made in heaven.” Sasha laughed.

“Indeed.” Michael also nodded and smiled. He then held my hand and said, “Let’s go.”

Michael and I stepped onto the aircraft’s escalator and sat in our seats.

The plane began to take off with a loud roar and flew into the blue sky.

I leaned on Michael’s shoulder and quietly looked at the buildings on the ground, getting further away from me. In the end, only large clouds surrounded us like giant cotton balls.
