Chapter 180: Not Marking Anyone Else
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Michael put his hand on my back. His breath comforted me. After all, it was just a memory. I was not as angry as I was when I first heard all this.
“She also said that you would never mark me because you don’t want to do this, and the result is that you will leave me and go back to her,” I said sullenly.
Michael did not look amused.
This was instead a comfort to me. Michael was unhappy because of Joanna’s words, which just showed that Joanna was lying.
“What did you say?” Michael’s voice sounded cold. He was still grabbing my arm as if he feared I would escape.
I twisted my arm uncomfortably, but Michael had no intention of letting go.
“I told her to shut up.” I thought for a moment. “And get the hell out of there.”

When I first heard what Joanna said, I wanted to question Michael and ask him for an answer. But now, I felt that this was not so important. I didn’t even need to be obsessed with this question. I knew how Michael treated me.
I was even more annoyed that I would be easily influenced by Joanna’s words and manipulated by her.
“Well done, babe. For anyone who wants to take me away from you, tell them to get lost, okay?”
Michael lowered his head and kissed the corner of my lips. I responded enthusiastically.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know that.” Michael blinked and looked at me. “That’s why you wanted me to mark you that night, right? I’m sorry for letting you go through this alone.”
“It’s okay,” I stammered.
That night’s incident had already passed. I was very sad then, but after listening to my mother’s reasoning, I realized that being marked wasn’t an ordinary matter.
A mark was sacred. It represented the connection between two people’s hearts. It was a product of love. It was naive of me to think of the mark as proof of ownership, even as a means of revenge.
“Babe, listen to me.” Michael lifted my chin and made me look him in the eye.
I felt my skin burn from his touch, and I couldn’t help but fall for his bright, dark brown eyes. Michael looked so attractive, and his amazing beauty could easily seduce me, making me look as stunning as the first time I saw him.
“I want you, and you will always be the only one. Every promise I made was true, whether it was to you or your parents.” Michael paused. “You didn’t want to accept this before, but my promise still stands. I’m a Lycan Prince of the royal family. I’m a man of my word.”
I stared into Michael’s deep eyes and nodded slowly.
“I’ve lived for a long time. I know what I want, but Cecily, you’re still young. Compared to you, I’m like an old man.”
Michael reached out and caressed my hair. “So I give you the right to choose. I love you and want to spend my life with you, but I will only mark you if you have thought it through and love me back. And unless you refuse me, I will not mark anyone else, and certainly not Joanna. Do you hear me?”
Hearing Michael’s words, I felt all my words stuck in my throat.

I thought Michael was autocratic, arrogant, and self-important all this time, but he spoke to me so gently. He told me he was thinking of me with all his heart, and countless emotions surged into my heart.
Michael was a noble Lycan Prince of the royal family, but he showed me enough respect and prudence in the face of a mate relationship. He even gave me the power of the mark.
“You said you love me,” I repeated Michael’s words, and tears almost filled my eyes.
“Yes, I love you, Cecily.”
Michael lowered his head and kissed my fingers, using his charming and deep voice to speak affectionately.
I almost lost my breath because of this simple sentence. I seemed to see my soul floating on the ceiling. I could see every expression on Michael’s face, his perfect handsome features, his beautiful and deep eyes, my heart beating rapidly, almost breaking through my chest.
A flower planted because of Michael’s presence in my heart began to grow rapidly. It grew thick and luxuriant with love. Layers of flowers surged through my heart, bringing with them a burning sensation. It spread from my heart and grew wildly. The smell engulfed me. It engulfed everything.
I could not help but kiss Michael. His breath was as hot as mine. I greedily absorbed Michael’s scent, wishing I could imprint everything about him on my body and soul.
