I held onto Michael’s arm and watched Courtney leave.

Michael lowered his head to look at my hand and raised his eyebrows. “My dear little wolf, do you have to hold my arm so tightly when facing my sister-in-law?”

I glared at Michael and knew he was laughing at my possessiveness.

I didn’t let go of his hand as he wished. Instead, I tightened my grip on his arm and provoked him with my gaze as if saying, “This is me. What are you going to do about it?”

However, not only was Michael not intimidated by me, but he also burst out laughing.

His smile made my actions seem ridiculous. I released my hand resentfully and turned my head to the side. “If you ask me, I think you should interrogate Joanna directly. I bet she knows everything.”

When Michael heard that, he sighed and said, “I can’t do that because of her status. Also, Samuel told me that her parents have already put pressure on me in front of my father.”

I pursed my lips as I looked at Michael with worry. “I can let Thales go, and I can even let go of the people who kidnapped me. But I cannot let Joanna live. She must receive the harshest punishment. If she could get away with it this time, who knew what terrible things she would do in the future?”

Michael rubbed my head and said firmly, “Don’t worry, I won’t let her off. She dared to hurt you, so I’ll let her know the consequences. However...”

“However what?” I asked.

Michael wrapped his arms around my body and whispered in my ear, “But in this rare moment of our time together, do you really want to keep talking about such a disgusting person? She’s not worth our time. You belong to me. We should return to our warm bed and do what mates should do.”

I looked at Michael’s affectionate and moving eyes. The wind blew at his brown hair, and my heart was beating violently in my chest because of his hug, breath, and words.

It was nightfall. Michael was right. Such a charming night should only belong to us.

The following day, when Michael and I got out of bed and were eating at the table, Samuel came in with bad news. The Lycan King wanted to see Michael and specifically asked him to bring me back.

Michael and I were both surprised by Samuel’s news. We did intend to go back, but the king shouldn’t have been the one to come to us. Instead, it should be Michael and me who should take the initiative to visit. It didn’t seem to make much difference, but it was huge.

Unlike Michael, to me, being summoned by the Lycan King was not only a surprise but also scary.

I didn’t know what kind of attitude Michael’s father would have toward me. He was a king.

And the bigger impact was that it disrupted my original plan with Michael.

We thought that since the distance was not short, and we were just marked each other, we could go back for a sightseeing tour after we settled the matters here.

It would take time for Courtney to investigate the matter behind the scenes. If we were to have some fun for a while longer, we might be able to make it back in time for the trial of the criminals. Nothing would be delayed.

And now, we had no choice but to start packing our luggage and prepare to set off. My time with Michael had been disrupted once again.

Samuel had already reported everything to the king, who had given a direct order. Due to the vile nature of the case and the complexity of the people involved, the king decided to form a separate team to investigate as soon as possible. He would report it to the werewolf court in two weeks.

I was surprised by the royal family’s decision. I knew that the royal family was all big shots with countless documents piled on their table, waiting for them to decide.

I didn’t think that the Lycan King would place such an important position in this. Was it because of Joanna, Michael, or me?

However, no matter what I thought, I had to act.

I had to say goodbye to my parents. Although it was common in the werewolf pack, and she-wolves always left their hometown for the pack where their mate was, I still felt very sad, and it wasn’t easy to face it.

I didn’t want to say goodbye to my parents. Michael’s pack was too far away from us. Once we separated this time, I didn’t know when we would meet again.

My parents didn’t look as sad as I was. They were really happy for me, especially after discovering that Michael had marked me. They gave me their most sincere and warm blessings.
