Abandoned by the Alpha, I Became the Lycan King's Mate

[Margaret’s Perspective]

When Donald came out of the bathroom, he had already cleaned himself up.

The two of us walked hand in hand to the hall. There were already many people there. When Elliot saw us, he came straight up to us and said to Donald, “Your Majesty, the seat for you is over there.”

Donald looked at me and refused. “No, I’ll stay with Margaret.”

I felt people were watching us. Under everyone’s gaze, I blushed again. I began to be glad that I had changed my clothes before going out. As expected, as long as I walked beside Donald, I would be the center of attention.

Donald was used to such gazes. He looked at me as usual and asked, “Are you hungry? Do you need anything to eat?”

I shook my head. Before Donald returned, I had just had an early lunch. However, Donald must have been busy in the morning and didn’t have time to eat anything just now. Thinking of this, I looked at Donald worriedly.

“What is it?” Donald asked.

“Why don’t we go find Alpha and the others?” I suggested.

The various gazes that were looking at us made me feel uncomfortable. I didn’t know how much kindness or malice there was. Moreover, I was a little worried about Donald. I wanted him to eat something. Armstrong and Elizabeth should be together. They would always set up something.

I felt Donald tighten his grip on my hand. He seemed to really care about me mentioning Armstrong’s name. I laughed inwardly and thought of Angel, but I felt that I couldn’t laugh anymore.

I was also very concerned about Angel. Moreover, Angel’s threat to me was clearly different from Armstrong’s threat to Donald. Donald was so outstanding that Armstrong could not compare to him in any aspect. It was different for Angel and me. Angel could almost beat me in all aspects.

[Donald.]

[Hmm?]

I turned my head and saw Donald looking at me. I knew that he was wondering why I still used Mindlink with him so close to me. I just felt that I was too embarrassed to say some things in front of him. I turned my head away and insisted on communicating with Donald on Mindlink.

[You mentioned Mark just now. Is it for my safety?]

[Yes.]

I thought about it and sent Donald a transmission line by line. [Donald, I’m very willing to accept your mark.]

[But I just thought about it. Exchanging marks should be a very important thing for both of us. I hope you made this decision carefully. It’s between the two of us, but it doesn’t involve just the two of us.]

[I didn’t choose to do this only because you care about my safety. I think it should be proof that we love each other and promise to be together all the time. A mark is just a natural way of connecting us. I don’t want us to feel any imperfection when we look back in the future.]

[So, Donald, have you really thought about exchanging marks with me?]

I finally looked at Donald. These words were actually what I wanted to say just now.

Everything had happened so quickly just now. We were all too excited.

But now that I’d calmed down and thought about it, I didn’t want Donald to feel burdened by our relationship. I think our relationship should be healthy and natural. I didn’t want to feel any guilt. It had always been Donald trying to protect me, and I wanted to give Donald a sense of security.

He didn’t need a mark to confirm that I was okay. I preferred to tell him that I was fine in my own way.

[I want to mark with you, for no other reason than you, Margaret.]

I heard Donald say.

[But you’d worry about that, wouldn’t you?] Donald’s eyes were thoughtful.

[I’m afraid you’ll regret it.]

I tried to avoid Donald’s gaze. Donald was right. In essence, I was still a little uneasy about this relationship. I looked past Donald and saw Armstrong at the end of the room. Elizabeth was standing beside him.

Then there was Angel. She stood neatly dressed on the side, surrounded by warriors from the assault team. Angel’s arrival undoubtedly intensified my uneasiness, making me especially terrified about having Donald. I was the one who was not ready to accept a promise as serious as the mark.

“But you’re right. We should all think about it,” Donald said. “I’ll think about this more carefully. Take what I said to heart, okay?”

“Okay,” I agreed softly. “I have something to tell you too.”

“What is it?” Donald said.

“Let me handle Angel’s matter myself, okay?” I gazed into Donald’s eyes and slowly made a request.
