Chapter 73: Talking As If Nothing Was Wrong
[Donald’s Perspective]
Normally, the couple would get to know each other better to be able to sense each other’s emotions more easily. This didn’t only happen when the two of them were together. Even if they were far apart, they could sense each other’s joy or anger.
Moreover, some people would even activate some special ability. For example, they would teleport within a certain distance and even completely control the other party’s body to obtain their five senses.
At the moment, no one knew how this special ability evolved, and not every pair of marked mates could have this ability. According to a few claims, special abilities were probably related to the couple’s deep affection for each other, tacit understanding, and physical constitution.
If I marked Margaret, at least I would be able to grasp her state at any time. If she was in danger, I would be able to sense it immediately. That way, I could rest assured that she would stay in the Silver Moon Tribe.
However, given the current situation, we did not have the time or energy to hold any ceremony. I was not sure that Margaret would accept such a sloppy mark. The timing of our meeting was dramatic enough. I wanted to give her a grand ceremony to give recognition to her identity in front of everyone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI gathered up the papers on my desk and headed for my residence to see Margaret.
Armstrong had decided on holding a meeting that afternoon. It was in the hall where I had first arrived. It was very close to my place. Before that, I wanted to discuss the mark with Margaret.
[Margaret’s Perspective]
I didn’t expect to sleep until noon.
Donald was long gone when I woke up. I felt ashamed when I thought about how Donald was already dealing with work when I was still asleep. He slept at about the same time as me, but he had woken up so early.
I looked at the door. There were only two guards. Elliot wasn’t anywhere near here either. He was probably busy.
I finished my breakfast, or perhaps I should say lunch, slowly and received the notification of the afternoon meeting that Armstrong had sent to everyone in the pack.
What happened last night could not be hidden from everyone. Armstrong needed to give an explanation to everyone who knew and did not know. I looked at the notice and was in a daze. Could it be that Armstrong did not sleep last night and did not know how Elizabeth was?
I sighed and prepared to change my clothes and wash up before going to the afternoon meeting to see what was going on.
At this moment, I saw Donald push open the door and walk in.
I had just taken off my clothes and hadn’t had time for a change of clothes. All I had was a bra and a pair of panties.
Although we had already seen each other naked, this kind of encounter still made me feel a little awkward. I quickly put on a black dress and pushed my hair out of my collar as if nothing had happened. It hung by the side of my face.
I bet I saw a mischievous smile on Donald’s face. I turned around to hide the blush on my face and asked, “Why are you back?”
“Don’t you want to see me?” Donald asked with a smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI felt his breath close to me. Before we lost control of ourselves and pressed against each other, I rushed into the bathroom and quickly smeared cleansing foam on my face.
“Are you shy?” I heard Donald’s voice ask. I closed my eyes and rolled my eyes. I didn’t want to answer such a question. I was just not used to being naked in front of a member of the opposite sex. I was just reacting like a normal person.
“Did you know that Wolf is very fond of you? He has been wanting to play with your wolf.”
I had just washed the foam off my face and was stuffing my toothbrush into my mouth. When I heard Donald’s words, I stammered, “Uh, uh, then if there’s a chance, shall I ask Betty to come out and meet him?”
I saw Donald appear behind me in the mirror. All of a sudden, this seemed like part of our day-to-day lives, including the topic we were talking about. It was as if we had lived together for a long time. However, Donald was clearly such an extraordinary person. He had a dazzling aura, but at this moment, he was squeezed in the bathroom with me. This feeling was unexpectedly wonderful.
“I’d rather not. There’s not even enough time for me to spend with you.”
I saw Donald shrug and lean against the door.
I spat out the last of the foam in my mouth and looked back at him. “Don’t you think you’re being a little cruel?” I teased.
“That’s half your fault.”
“It’s your call,” I replied casually. I wanted to walk past him, but he grabbed me by the waist and pressed me to the side of the door. I struggled symbolically and didn’t break free. I stopped trying and met his beautiful gray-green eyes.
I had given up all my struggles to resist Donald’s charms. As long as he was in front of me, I wanted him. Just like now, we had only been apart for a morning. I was sleeping most of the time, but I felt that I couldn’t get enough of seeing his face in front of me. I was sure that the Moon Goddess must have cast a spell on us. Otherwise, there was no reason at all to explain this unreasonable degeneration.
