“But I’m not the kind of girl that would let a man push me around, so I left anyway. But as long as I stayed there for a long time, I would always get messages from Michael. Some of them were about family matters, and sometimes he would tell me that he had found his mate and that he was engaged or something like that. So I was troubled during that time.”
Although she said she was troubled, a happy expression appeared on Joanna’s face.
“Later on, I realized that those were all Michael’s excuses. There was no such thing as a fiancée or a mate. He just wanted me to come back. That’s why I was a little confused when I heard that you two were mates this morning. However, there shouldn’t be a problem since you two are mates arranged by the Moon Goddess.”
Joanna ended the conversation cheerfully, the exact opposite of what I felt.
My fists were clenched so tightly that I could almost put my fingers in my palms. I had to use all my willpower not to transform. I could feel my body shaking, and Mia screamed to come out. She wanted to rip the b*tch’s neck out.
But Michael told me to learn to control myself, and I tried to calm myself by recalling Michael’s breath because I didn’t know what would happen if I lost control, and I didn’t want to cause any more trouble for Michael.
“Ow!”
I stood up from the sofa and let out an angry roar from my throat.
Sasha came over to support me, and I turned my head to glare at her. I glanced fiercely at Joanna, who had also stood up. I now wanted to attack anyone who came near me.
I saw Sasha take a step back. Both her and Joanna’s faces were filled with fear.
They were afraid of me. Why?
They were both royal Lycans. So even if I completed my transformation, I could only do the same as them. So why were they afraid of me?
“So, what are you doing here?” I stared at Joanna.
Joanna looked at me in confusion, then at Sasha.
“Look at me and answer my question,” I pressed.
“I just happened to be passing by.” Joanna’s expression remained sincere. “Cecily, I’m really not here to be hostile. I’m just saying these things because I thought you might be interested in Michael. I won’t mention it if you’re unhappy about it again.”
“Passing by? Humph, did you often pass by like this before?” I retorted.
“Cecily, I think we should all calm down. Let’s all go back to our rooms, alright?” It was Sasha who spoke this time.
I looked at Sasha with dissatisfaction. She seemed to be on Joanna’s side and not mine in this matter.
Sasha looked at me and sighed. “You’re Michael’s mate. This has already been decided. Joanna won’t change the outcome of this matter.”
Sasha leaned close to me and whispered in my ear, “Michael told me you’re in the process of becoming a royal Lycan. He told me to look out for you.
“I can smell that your emotions are very unstable right now. This will affect your rationality. If you have an accident or consume a large amount of energy during the transformation process, it will affect your ability level after you become a royal Lycan. Now, try to calm down and control your wolf. Don’t let her out.”
I tried to do what Sasha said. I didn’t look at Joanna to prevent my emotions from getting out of control.
“Yes, that’s right. You are doing a good job.” Sasha comforted me in a soothing voice. “I understand how you feel. Yesterday, Joanna hugged Michael. This angered your wolf, but you can control it. To be honest, I’ve known Joanna for many years. She’s not an aggressive person. Perhaps you should consider becoming friends with her.”
I glanced at Joanna from the corner of my eye. She was healthy, beautiful, and attractive. Unfortunately, I couldn’t relax as long as I was under the same roof as her, and neither could my wolf.
But anyway, I got out of the mood. The angriness no longer filled my chest. Sasha noticed that I was feeling better and reached out to touch my forehead, “Your face doesn’t look as red as before. We said we were going swimming. Are you interested?”
“There’s a swimming pool here?” I asked with my eyes wide open.
“There’s no swimming pool, but there’s a river at the back. It’s perfect for summer,” Joanna interjected.
Sasha nodded. “Joanna used to come here with us in the summer. It’s perfect for swimming.”
“Okay, I’ll go with you,” I said.
I didn’t want to be alone in this house, and I didn’t trust Sasha’s assessment of Joanna.
She might seem like a nice person, but the way she looked at Michael was different. Sasha’s runaway experience told me she had never been in a real relationship. She didn’t understand that when you have feelings for someone.., you couldn’t hide that in your eyes.
I needed to spend more time with Joanna and then find a chance to expose her mask. She’d find an excuse to stay here, and then she’d slip up.
