Abandoned by the Alpha, I Became the Lycan King's Mate Chapter 43

Chapter 43: The Innocent Girl Who Loved Him

[Margaret’s Perspective]

As I turned to leave, I tried my best to maintain my dignity. However, I thought that no matter what, my back view looked more like I was fleeing. I couldn’t help but repeatedly think about how compatible Donald was with that woman. In terms of appearance, identity, and ability, she looked like an elite among the royal Lycans. I had no idea how I could asure up to her.

Angel said that she was Donald’s girlfriend, but Donald did not deny it.

I didn’t even dare to think about what kind of role I was playing in this. Had they loved each other that way before? Would Donald treat her the way he touched and kissed ?

I was clearly still doing the most intimate thing with Donald last night. We even woke up in the sa bed in the morning and exchanged morning kisses. At that ti, I still felt that we were the happiest couple. But why did everything seem different after a short day?

If they were once in love, but Donald announced to everyone that I was his mate in public, wouldn’t this story be too familiar? Then what I did to Angel was no different from what Elizabeth once did to . Would Donald hurt an innocent girl who loved him deeply the way Armstrong had hurt ?

I didn’t want to speculate about Donald with such thoughts. I was sure he was a good person, but the uneasiness in my heart was difficult to restrain.

I stopped in front of our house and suddenly felt a little afraid as I walked in. There were lingering traces of and Donald from this morning. The place was filled with the auras and mories that belonged to us. I didn’t know how to face them.

“Are you OK?”

A male voice suddenly sounded in my ear. I jumped and realized that Armstrong was behind .

“Why are you here?”

“Uh, actually, I’ve been following you since just now. To be precise, I’ve been here since I left your house.”

“Ah, I’m sorry, Armstrong. I didn’t notice,” I replied awkwardly.

“It’s okay. I saw that you weren’t in a good state, so I followed you because I was afraid that sothing would happen to you. Now that you’re safe in your room, I’m relieved.”

“I’ll be fine. I—”

I looked at Armstrong’s burning eyes and suddenly stopped talking. We both knew why he was following . These excuses were just a way of playing dumb. From the mont he said those words in the office, it was impossible for us to be ordinary friends. I had promised him on the way just to whitewash the situation.

But then I wondered. If Donald and Angel had been a couple before, would Donald still be obsessed with his forr girlfriend like Armstrong? I had been very reluctant to talk to Armstrong about anything between us, but at this mont, I was eager to know what Armstrong thought.

Armstrong said he was over it, but was he really? Did he seriously want to be with Elizabeth? I wanted to know the answers to these questions. Even though I knew that such an act would be like exploiting the other party’s feelings and would be despicable, I had to hold on to sothing or I would go crazy.

“Armstrong.”

“Huh?” Armstrong looked at .

‘Er, would you like to go for a walk?’

“The two of us?” Armstrong looked surprised.

“Yes, I’d like to take a walk. Would you like to accompany ?”

I suddenly understood why Elizabeth kept looking for Anthony. Such behavior was not good, but people needed emotional comfort when they were vulnerable.

“Of course. My pleasure.”

With Armstrong around, we easily bypassed the guards and went to the forest where we used to go together. I really missed the fresh air of the forest. Since Donald arrived, I had to report to him every ti I traveled. I never had a chance to co here again.

I stepped on the wet soil and breathed in the fragrance of the vegetation. I felt like the breath that had been stuck in my throat since I saw Angel had been let out.

“The two of us used to sneak out and date in the woods,” Armstrong said.

I glanced at Armstrong. He was talking about our past. Was this what he missed? Could Donald be with Angel now, missing their past?

I was beginning to regret asking Armstrong out for a walk. It wasn’t a good decision. I shouldn’t have done such a thing. I loved Donald and I was willing to believe him.

Then what I should do now was to have a good chat with Donald and not seek comfort from my ex-boyfriend, especially when my ex-boyfriend was still in an ambiguous relationship with my sister and my ex-boyfriend’s Beta. I felt that my actions were extrely stupid.

And at such a critical ti, it was not a wise decision for and our pack’s alpha to appear in the forest without any protection. There could be an attack at any ti now, and it was not unreasonable for Donald to tell to be more careful.
