“Didn’t you complain that the Lycan Prince of the royal family was imprisoning you and restricting your freedom?” Kate looked at me sideways.

“He is a little possessive, but things have changed. I rely on and understand him more, and my feelings for him are the same. I don’t want his gaze to rest on any other she-wolf.” I thought of Michael. I couldn’t help but smile.

“It sounds like an incredible change,” Kate muttered. “Well, I think I’ll try to accept Alex. I’m a little fed up with my current state.”

“That’s great. I’ll call Aunt Carol right away,” I said excitedly. “When are you going back?”

Kate held my hand and shook her head at me. “Wait, Cecily, that’s not what I meant.”

My smile froze. I looked at Kate and said, “Then, what did you mean? I thought you had agreed to go to the Ancient Wood Pack to find him.”

“I said that I would consider accepting Alex as my mate, but in return, he should show his sincerity. I need to ensure that the person he wants is me, not other she-wolves.”

Kate winked at me, “He’s a pack’s Alpha. If he wants anything, he should get it through his power, not me. Men are all like this. They enjoy the thrill of chasing, and I can’t let him get it easily.”

I shrugged. Honestly, I didn’t fully understand Kate’s theory of the boy in uniform. I preferred to express my thoughts directly. If I liked it, I liked it. If I didn’t like it, I didn’t like it. But Kate was more experienced. She swam among boys like a fish in water.

I couldn’t figure out why Kate would insist on Alex chasing her when her body was in such a state. Did she care about her health at all?

But Kate’s decision to accept Alex was a good thing. She came out of that zombie state, and I was glad that she was making a definite plan for herself.

“Well, if you’re more willing to do that.” I put my phone away and said to Kate, “Then, do you want to do some preparation for this? How about we go shopping?”

Kate looked down at her shirt, which she had been wearing for god knows how many days, and said, “You’re right. I should clean up.”

I watched Kate go into the bathroom, sighed, and put some of Kate’s clothes together in the room. If Kate didn’t go back now, the result would be Alex coming to the school to take Kate back.

Michael’s last trip to the Ancient Wood Pack to take me home showed how angry Alex would be when he came over. Had Kate thought about facing an angry Alpha like that?

I felt I should advise Kate from someone who had been there before.

In the face of a possessive mate, submission was more effective than resistance, and gentleness was often a more powerful weapon than stubbornness.

As Kate and I walked to the mall, I could sense that Kate’s spirits were much higher than before. She finally opened up and told me about her past experiences.

I laughed when Kate mentioned how she had rebuked a b*tch. This was the Kate I should have known, the social queen in high heels who would swear at anyone who dared step on her head.

At that moment, I felt a chill run down my spine.

The hairs on my body stood on end, and a tingling sensation shot up my spine and my skull. I realized that the two times Kate had mentioned in the dorm that someone was watching us wasn’t just for show. Strangers were watching us.

I looked around warily. The road was lined with tall trees, and the sun shone through the leaves’ gaps. It was school time, and there weren’t many students on the road, so I used my enhanced royal Lycan hearing to listen carefully.

I had been careful since Michael had told me about the she-wolves abduction, and I was afraid that the same people would target me.

There was nothing out of the ordinary as far as my eyes could see, but I suddenly smelled something familiar in the oppressive air. I sniffed the air again. It was intense, but there was a hint of freshness and sweetness.

I understood immediately and smiled smugly.

He couldn’t help it.

Good. That was what I had been waiting for.
