Chapter 118 - One Question For You

I felt warm and happy in his arms. My body relaxed again, and I inhaled his delicious scent.

This side of Michael that he showed me now was very different from before.

He looked gentle and caring, which was more acceptable to me than the possessiveness and control he had shown me before. Michael had not been bad before, but anyone could feel the pressure under that kind of pressure.

I now understood that he was a prince used to taking orders and speaking to people that way, but I liked him better now.

I put my hand on his muscular arm, and we both enjoyed the moment.

I realized that my plan was working, and instead of going against him, I was trying to win him over in a different way, which was working.

Michael wasn’t as wary of me as he had been before, but he was enjoying the time he had with me. And there was something else going on. I could feel Michael’s relief. Our connection was strengthening, something that had never happened before.

I thought that now was the time to talk about that matter.

“Michael.” I looked at him and asked, “Can I ask you a question?”

“Hmm?” Michael ran his fingers through my hair and made a single acquiescence sound.

I hesitated for a moment and decided to use a more roundabout way to ask my question.

“Those she-wolves that you mentioned earlier, if they were kidnapped to be marked, would they be able to find their mates in the future?”

“Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t be able to do so unless the owner of the mark died. However, they deserve to die as well. If I were to catch them, I wouldn’t give them a chance to live,” Michael said.

“But you said you felt my aura before I rejected Robert.”

After hearing Robert’s name, Michael revealed a disgusted expression. He said in an unfriendly tone, “That’s different.”

I didn’t understand what was different. I looked at Michael, confusion written all over my face.

Michael stared at me for two seconds. Finally, he sighed and said, “The Lycans’ rules differ from ordinary werewolves’. The Lycans don’t find a mate as easily as other werewolves, so if they meet someone they want to mark, even if they already have a mate, Lycan can still challenge them.

“If we win, we can use a method to dissolve the other party’s mate relationship and make this person our mate.”

“Isn’t… isn’t that too unfair? The other party is already each other’s mate, yet you forcibly separate the other party,” I said.

Michael shrugged. “The other party also has the right to choose,” he said. “Not all Lycans would do such a thing to separate others. We can do this. It’s not unfair. Power is everything. When you have more power, you can do more things that others can’t.”

That sounded like a werewolf’s nature.

We were different from humans. No matter how much we looked like humans, we had the nature of beasts. Therefore, using humans’ moral standards to control werewolves was unrealistic. Moreover, the Lycans were very different from ordinary werewolves.

“If I hadn’t rejected Robert then, would you have challenged him and snatched me away from him?” I asked in a low voice. For a moment, I didn’t know what kind of answer I wanted from Michael.

“I would have.” Michael’s answer was unexpectedly serious.

“From the moment I saw you, I knew you were special. I would never let you leave me.” The corners of Michael’s mouth curled into a proud smile as he said, “But I am different from the ordinary royal Lycans. Although the royal Lycans stole someone else’s mates, they didn’t know if the other party was fated mates. But I knew from the beginning that you were my fated mate.”

“How did you know?” I asked.

“Because I’m the Lycan prince.” Michael blinked.

I looked at his mouth, but it was closed. Michael didn’t seem to want to explain it to me in detail. Perhaps this had something to do with the royal Lycan bloodline.

I gave up the thought of asking and said, “No matter what, I’m yours now. But what would have happened to him if I hadn’t rejected Robert back then and you stole me from him?”

Michael frowned. “I don’t like to talk about that werewolf, but if you want to know, the easiest way is to kill him.”

I clenched my fists and looked at Michael in shock. “Are you saying the way to break off a mate after a challenge is to kill him?”
