“He won’t hurt others because of his personal feelings. He will listen to the opinions of those who are not as strong as him, and he will respect the choices of others. They enjoy power, but they won’t become a tool of power. I’m sorry that I saw your true and bad side. You wouldn’t have been a qualified Alpha and are not a good choice for a mate.”
“Are you a good leader, though?” Robert muttered.
I shook my head. “I’m not a good leader. I don’t have the power to see the whole picture, but I know someone who can do it, and I’m lucky to see how he does it.”
Robert heard the hidden meaning in my words, and a mocking smile appeared on my lips. “You hate me because of what I did, so it’s expected for you to think that I’m not as good as the Lycan Prince of the royal family in all aspects. But if we had been together, you and I wouldn’t be like this.”
I turned to look at Robert and shook my head again. “No, I’ve never hated you.”
“No, how is that possible?” Robert lowered his gaze to look at his skinny hands. “I’ve hurt you. You must hate me to the bone.”
“When you rejected me for the first time, I wanted to hate you. But back then, we still had an unbreakable bond between us. I couldn’t do it,” I said honestly. “Later, I rejected you. Michael took me away during the ceremony. You came to the Ancient Wood Pack to force-mark me. I don’t hate you for any of these things.”
Robert’s eyes lit up when he heard what I said as if there was some hope.
But the light in his eyes went out when he heard what I said next.
…..
I said, “I didn’t care about you then. My heart was already in Michael. I only felt pity and sympathy for you because I was a stranger. You’re right about one thing. You could have avoided this.”
“Pity and sympathy?” Robert thought about the two words before he revealed a cold smile that had lost its warmth. “Are you feeling sympathy for what your b*stard Lycan Prince did to me? You should be feeling sorry for me. All of this happened because of you!”
Robert looked like he wanted to jump out of bed to express his anger, but he was too weak. This intense emotion only caused him to cough more violently.
“Michael was just protecting me,” I spoke for my mate. “He did what he should have done, not hurt his mate.”
Robert was speechless because of my words. He knew I was implying that he hurt his mate.
I turned around and prepared to leave. I had already said everything I wanted to say. The rest of the consequences should be borne by Robert himself.
Suddenly, I heard a low voice behind me.
“I have nothing left, Cecily.” I turned my head, and Robert’s expression looked a little pitiful. “My parents have already abandoned me. Alison… She wants to kill me every day. Everyone is ashamed of me and has locked me up in this small room. They hope that I will die quietly and not embarrass them anymore.”
I looked at the furnishings in the room. Everything here was meticulously arranged to make the people who lived here more comfortable. I remembered the Luna’s pleading expression just now. I doubted the credibility of Robert’s words.
“This place may look good, but you know my father. He has never liked me. Cecily, you’re the only person who has a connection with me. You’re my mate. We have a special bond. I felt it the moment you walked into this room. I’ve become stronger and more complete because of you. Come closer, please, Cecily,” Robert pleaded.
The frailty on his face confused me. I hesitated for a moment before walking back.
If I could make Robert feel better, I wouldn’t mind giving him a little help.
Robert reached out and grabbed my hand. His touch made me uncomfortable, and I moved slightly to free myself from Robert’s hand and ignore his disappointed expression. Only the touch of the Lycan Prince of the royal family could stir my heart, not disgust it.
“That’s enough. I’m here to put an end to our past. I’ll start a new life.” I paused. “Robert, whatever you think, I’ve asked Michael to rescind your trial in the werewolf court because Michael is a kind and forgiving man. We won’t see each other again. I hope you can live your life to the fullest.”
I realized that five minutes was almost up.
If I didn’t get out soon, I wondered if Michael’s patience would allow him to barge in, and then everything he had promised me might no longer work. In any case, I was glad Michael had given me five minutes, which strengthened our trust.
“No!” Robert exploded with tremendous force, and my wrist felt as if it had been clamped down from behind. I almost suspected that Robert was still a werewolf.
