Chapter 132: Fake Smiles

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Joanna giggled from the side. Her voice was beautiful, but the melody wasn’t as melodious.

“Former friends. That’s not true, Sasha. Michael and I were more than friends.”

I knew she was up to no good, but I knew it last night. Whether Joanna’s goal was to make me jealous, angry, go out of control, or something else, I wasn’t going to let her get away with it.

Joanna looked at Michael, who was still drinking his coffee, even though he was almost at the bottom.

“If the two of you are mates, I would like to take the liberty to ask, did the Moon Goddess arrange you, or did Michael choose you?”

Joanna’s gaze returned to me. Her gaze was filled with just the right amount of doubt, as if she was expressing an ordinary question.

I gritted my teeth. This b*tch was a great actress, and all I wanted to do was reach out, grab her by the hair, and slam her to the ground.

I felt Michael’s grip on my hand tighten for a split second, and I leaned in on Michael, trying to keep my cool by absorbing his scent, trying to ignore the provocation in Joanna’s words.

She was trying to imply that Michael had not been with me willingly but had been coerced by the Moon Goddess’ mate arrangement.

This was all bullshit!

“Cecily, let me take you back to your room, okay?” Michael reached out and stroked my hair. He noticed my abnormality and felt I needed to return to my room to rest.

But I didn’t want to turn my back on Joanna every time. I wanted to tell her to whom Michael belonged.

I put my hand on Michael’s arm as he tried to lift me. I felt the biceps under my fingertips and deliberately touched them a little more.

......

I saw two sharp flashes in Joanna’s bright blue eyes, but they disappeared so quickly that I thought they were reflections of something because Joanna’s expression still looked so gentle and calm.

“Is this important?” I gave Joanna a fake smile, “Either way, Michael is my mate. There’s no doubt about it. But, if you’re so concerned about this, it makes me think you have other thoughts about my mate. Of course, you wouldn’t do that, would you, Joanna?”

I saw some surprise in Sasha’s and Michael’s eyes.

I had never claimed ownership of Michael like this in front of anyone. Just a week ago, I had been avoiding my relationship with Michael, and I was surprised at how much I had changed, but now I couldn’t accept anyone getting close to my mate.

“Don’t get me wrong, Cecily.” The fake smile on Joanna’s face looked more sincere than mine, “I’m sorry if I offended you just now. I sincerely congratulate you and Michael for getting together. I want to be friends with you. You won’t mind my little mistake earlier, right?”

If I rejected her now, it would look like I was being petty.

“Of course not,” I muttered.

“You’ve been talking for too long.” Michael finally put the empty coffee cup on the table, his face dark. “I have a meeting I have to attend today,” he said. “I have to go now.”

Michael stood up from the table, and I stood up with him. I didn’t want to be at the same table as Joanna. It was supposed to be Michael’s and my morning, but Joanna had wasted it.

I followed Michael to the door and watched him put on his coat.

Michael kissed me on the forehead and said softly, “I have to work all day. Will you be all right at home?”

It was an interesting question.

I stood on my tiptoes and bit his ear. “You forget every day I’ve been here; I had wished you weren’t in this house.”

“That’s not what I’m worried about.” Michael frowned slightly.

I looked at Michael and blinked in confusion. It wasn’t until Michael’s hand touched my waist that I remembered what he said about me becoming a Lycan of the royal family. He worried that I wouldn’t be able to control my emotions and desires.

My face turned red again. I felt Michael’s throat throb again. He was laughing at me.

“If it’s only for one day, I think I can handle it.”

“What if I don’t come back until tomorrow?” Michael grabbed my finger and teased me.

“Then, you might see a new show,” I muttered.

“Oh?” Michael narrowed his eyes. “In that case, maybe I should look forward to it.”

“No!” I bit Michael’s chin. “You have to come back tonight, or else... ”

“Or else what, my little wolf?” Michael laughed gloomily as if he knew that I wouldn’t be able to threaten him.

I glared at him. He even said that he had an important meeting. I didn’t think that he would be in a hurry to leave the house.

“Alright.” Michael reached out and hugged me, leaving one last gentle kiss on my cheek. “I’ll come back earlier. Wait for me.”
