Chapter 185 - You’re Not Nearly As Good As Her

Even though Kate was there, I was not worried about her safety. Alex would protect her and tear all the enemies to pieces.

The Ancient Wood Pack’s defense was stronger than any pack I’d ever seen. If the enemies attacked the Ancient Wood Pack, maybe Alex could take them down, and then Michael and I could take advantage of it.

However, the werewolf hunters wouldn’t lose their minds. They would be more inclined to attack a small pack like the Clear Creek Pack. This pack was weaker, and the people weren’t united enough. Therefore, it was easier for the werewolf hunters to get them down.

“Did you find anything?” A voice appeared behind me without any warning.

I was startled by the voice. I took a few steps back before I could see that Samuel had suddenly appeared.

Samuel had also been following Michael to investigate the she-wolves’ case. He was always elusive, appearing and disappearing suddenly. Michael told me to ignore him, but I was still not used to his ghostly figure sometimes.

“No.” I shook my head.

“Oh.” Samuel took two steps to the side and pulled some distance away from me. Then, he said coldly, “So what are you doing here?”

“Uh… I just thought that there might be more clues here. After all, we haven’t found anything for so many days,” I explained.

Samuel glanced at me and said, “Although you are more suitable to be Michael’s mate than Joanna, you are much worse than her in terms of investigation.”

I looked at Samuel in surprise. I had never heard any comments about Joanna and me from Samuel. He had always had an indifferent attitude. I once thought that he was an emotionless robot. It had been a long time since I had heard from Joanna since I had followed Michael into the investigation.

The last time Sasha had told me about Joanna, she had left the house shortly after we had left. She had said she was going to visit her parents.

That had seemed like a good thing because Joanna had come a long way from where we were now, but my anxiety had not abated. Even the last time we were apart, her eyes were burning with anger, and she didn’t seem like the kind of person who would give up easily, but now she was leaving.

I felt Joanna would make a comeback, and it would be even bigger when she did. All I could do was stay alert, make sure I was sure as soon as possible, and make Michael mark me. At that time, Joanna would no longer have the chance to snatch my mate away.

“Why do you say that?” I looked at Samuel and asked.

“Joanna has a special ability that can track and locate people. As long as I give her some clues, she will be able to follow the clues and find more valuable information.” Samuel’s tone was calm, and he didn’t even look at me.

I understood that he was stating a fact and didn’t care if I was depressed because of what he said. Samuel’s words seemed to be saying that I was just a burden to Michael, and the person who could be of help to Michael was Joanna.

Joanna had used her special ability to mock me. Back then, she had hinted that I was the superfluous person next to Michael. I didn’t think much of it. I even thought that, as a mate, I could do more for Michael than she did.

However, after so many days, I started to doubt if I was helpful to Michael. I knew nothing about how to track the enemy or how to coordinate the deployment. I was like an accessory to Michael.

“If only Joanna were here.” I couldn’t believe that I was the one who said that.

I still hated her very much. However, if she could help solve the current problem and save the she-wolf who was about to become a reproduction machine, what was the point of my dislike for her?

Samuel gave me a strange look. “You’re different from her.”

Once again, I was confused by Samuel’s words. “What do you mean?”

Samuel just shook his head.

These days, I vaguely felt that Samuel was not as cold and heartless as he seemed, but I had never had a chance to communicate effectively with him.

I recalled that Michael had previously said that the Lycan King sent Samuel. If I could get along well with him, it would benefit Michael. Since there was such an opportunity now, I might as well give it a try. Even if Samuel rejected me, I wouldn’t have much to lose.

“You know something about Joanna, don’t you?” I guessed.

Samuel remained silent, but I could tell from his pursed lips that he knew something.

“Tell me, Samuel. I’m Michael’s mate. I want to know everything about her, especially since Joanna is his ex,” I pleaded.
