Chapter 194 - Meeting Robert

“Huh?” Michael’s brows furrowed, revealing a confused expression. “Where do you want to go?”

“I want to go back to my pack,” I whispered.

Michael’s furrowed brows relaxed slightly, but there was still an unmistakable look of displeasure on his face. “Do you want to go back to your parents again? You left there when we left… if you must go, fine, I guess I can go with you.”

“No, no.” I said what I was thinking, “I want to go to Alpha John’s house and meet Robert.”

I felt the muscles on Michael’s chest tighten. His face turned ashen, and anger radiated from him.

He hated hearing my ex-mate’s name from me. I knew this and had always avoided doing so. However, what I wanted to do today could not avoid mentioning Robert.

Michael looked down at me in anger, and I saw the golden fire in his eyes again. I knew I had to say something to calm him down. “Don’t be so nervous. I want to talk to him. The last time I saw him was in the forest of the Ancient Wood Pack. It’s over between us, but I don’t want the last time to be the last.”

“What is there to talk about?!” Michael’s sudden raised voice startled me.

I sat up straight and looked at him a little timidly.

I knew my request seemed unreasonable to many people, including my best friend Kate, who didn’t think I needed to see Robert again. They all believed the best way for me to deal with this was to completely get Robert out of my life.

But what happened to Robert still made me sad and worried.

Especially after I heard that Robert was disqualified as an Alpha, Alpha John held a ceremony for our pack’s Beta to succeed him. After that, the pack’s Beta would pass the Alpha’s position to his son.

Robert was entirely out of the Alpha power struggle, and Alpha John was extremely disappointed in Robert. Alpha John also threatened to disown Robert and expel him from our pack as soon as he was found guilty by the werewolf court.

This made me feel responsible, and Robert was already being punished for his mistakes. I couldn’t change the situation, and I begged Michael to stop the werewolf court from sentencing Robert.

I wanted to see Robert because I wanted to tell him that I was done with him, that I wouldn’t get back at him, that he wouldn’t be put in a werewolf court, and that he didn’t have to fantasize about me anymore.

Michael made the final decision on my proposal. “No, I disagree. You can’t see him. We’re going back to our hotel now. It’s final.”

Michael’s gaze was fixed on the road ahead, not on me.

No matter how many times I tried, I was still annoyed by Michael’s tyranny.

I watched coldly as he started the car and turned his head to the other side. He never really listened to me. He was always so quick to make my decisions on his terms. Every time I argued with him, I felt so tired that I wondered if he loved me because he acted as if I was his obedient servant who could have sex with him.

“You know you can’t restrict my actions,” I said coldly.

I saw Michael turn his head and glare at me from the corner of my eye, but I kept looking out of the window and continued, “I’m telling you this because you’re my mate. I should tell you what I think, not suddenly leave and make you search for me all over the world. But you can’t tell me what to think and what to do. I’m free, I can go wherever I want, and I’m willing to spend most of my time with you because I love you, but that doesn’t mean you can take me as your property.”

I leaned back in my seat after my long speech.

I wasn’t sure if it made Michael angry, but I knew that keeping quiet and listening to Michael was the safest thing to do.

And in a way, I didn’t have to meet Robert. But I thought I should try and talk to Michael and come up with ideas he disapproved of. It was the beginning of our communication, and Michael had to learn to accept my point of view.

Although I still feared that Michael would get angry, take me back, imprison me, and not let me out of the house, it was still an adventure.

Our future together would depend not on my patience but on each other’s efforts. When our viewpoints differed, I had to face Michael with more courage.

I heard Michael breathing heavily, but he didn’t yell at me this time.

As I was feeling nervous, I heard a very reluctant voice say, “Okay, let’s go to your pack.”
