Chapter 7: We Should Be Together
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As Alfred had said, there were already many people at the party.
Kate had set up the party so well that there was a whole row of drinks of all kinds. On the other side, there were all kinds of food and snacks. The lights and music were just right, and the atmosphere was delightful.
I took a glass of champagne and sat down at the edge of the stage.
Some people were dancing in there, and Kate’s words convinced me; that I wanted to meet someone new.
I just wasn’t sure if my mate-relationship with Robert would still matter. Theoretically, he had already marked someone else even if he had rejected me outright. But now, the mate-relationship was not going away as quickly as it should.
Robert still affected me, and now he seemed to have changed his mind, which made things even more troublesome. Of course, I wouldn’t accept him. Perhaps, I should give him a formal rejection to end the absurd mate-relationship between us.
“Hey, do you want to dance?”
I saw a guy roughly estimated to be over six feet tall. He looked very strong and had a pair of thick eyebrows. He didn’t seem to be an annoying person.

I hesitated a little, but I still accepted it.
Regardless of whether I could do it, I should try it.
He grinned and extended his hand to me. I put my hand on his and was about to walk to the dance floor with him. I suddenly felt my wolf starting to get restless. Mia was howling softly. She sounded very sad.
‘Mia, what’s wrong?’
‘No, don’t. I’m not feeling well.’
I realized that Mia didn’t like the guy’s touch. I looked at him apologetically and wanted to pull my hand back.
“Hey, let her go!”
A male voice came from afar. I saw Robert striding over, his eyes flashing with anger.
The strange thing was that Alison wasn’t beside him. They usually appeared together.
The boy beside me was also startled by this. He subconsciously let go of my hand, making Mia relax a little.
“I have something to talk to you about, Cecily,” Robert said to me. He turned to the guy again. “Give us some space, okay?”
The guy looked at me, then at Robert’s unfriendly expression. He didn’t want to get into any trouble.
“Alright, you talk.”
I looked at Robert, not knowing what he wanted to do. He had rejected me in the most hurtful way, but now he was shamelessly pestering me.
“You look gorgeous today.” Robert scanned me up and down at me. He squeezed a smile, trying to be kind, but that smile failed and appeared stiff. It was the complete opposite of his deep eyes at the moment. He was like a funny clown. “You’ve never been so beautiful before.”
He took my hand and led me to a corner.
I felt my wolf Mia moaning. She was afraid. But I couldn’t resist Robert’s power. He was the heir of the Alpha. He had good physical fitness and received training, while I was just a 100-pound she-wolf. I couldn’t resist his power. And psychologically, a Mate’s touch made my skin want more, and even as I tried to fight it, I was woefully tempted.

No one would notice us here, and even if someone walked by, they’d probably think we were a horny couple. My hands were pressed against the wall. He was so strong that one of his hands could hold my wrists tightly. His other hand groped my waist and felt me up and down like a slimy snake. It was disgusting.
I could feel his breath resting on my neck. The rapid breathing current rose and fell on my neck.
“You smell great.”
Robert raised his head. He touched me and lifted my chin, forcing me to look him in the eye.
“We are the mates the Moon Goddess has arranged. We should be together. I am about to become the Alpha. By then, you will be my Luna, and we will be together from then on.”
Robert’s eyes were filled with an almost crazy infatuation and deep affection.
His aura surrounded me, and his voice seemed to possess a captivating power. I knew that this was just mate’s effect, but I couldn’t help but imagine the future he described.
“See, you still have feelings for me. We’ll have many children, and they’ll be able to grow up with the best resources in the pack. They’ll be healthy and smart.”
Robert continued to whisper. I felt like my rationality was slipping away until I saw the back of his neck. There was a mark!
It was a mark left behind by him betraying me and marking with Alison!
This person had brought me endless pain and despair, and now, he wanted to redeem himself?
I bit my lower lip hard to clear my head.
I lifted my leg and kicked him in the groin.
