A Beautiful Luna After Rejection - Chapter 321

321 The Missing Connection

A beast-like, brutal glint appeared in Michael’s eyes. As the submissive one, I looked into his eyes and felt everything had returned to when we first met.

Michael always thought that he was in charge of our relationship. He thought that he could control me. What did I have to do to make him understand that his thoughts were absurd and wrong?

Whenever the two of us had a dispute over something, he always asked me to obey him, no matter how difficult it was to understand his actions, because he always believed that he was right. Then, what was I to him? In addition to being his mate, I was still Cecily, and I had my own life.

I had never realized more clearly than I did now that the conflict between Michael and I had never changed.

We thought it was enough to know that the other party was a fated mate. We thought it was enough to overcome all the difficulties between us, but the reality was different. The mate relationship was more like a forced bond. Its powerful effectiveness made us ignore a lot of things. Being in love wouldn’t change a person completely, and it didn’t mean they could win against everything.

“You can’t decide where I should stay. I didn’t follow you to your pack so that you could lock me up somewhere else,” I told Michael.

Michael seemed to be stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at my face again and said fiercely, “No, I can.”

My lips trembled. Even then, Michael and I were still arguing over such an issue.

Michael roughly pulled me toward his body and said through gritted teeth, “You can’t leave me. This is my home, and it’s yours. You must stay here.”

“Let me go!”

Michael’s rough actions hurt me, but that wasn’t what I cared about. This physical pain was insignificant compared to the chill that filled my heart.

“Don’t move!” Michael roared.

I looked at Michael’s beast-like ferocious face. Suddenly, it was as if all the strength in my body had been stripped away, and I froze on the spot.

Michael stood before me like a stranger, no different from Brandon. At that moment, I felt the connection between Michael and me seemed to have disappeared. The feeling of being connected by the line of fate between us disappeared.

I looked at Michael’s face in surprise and suspicion, wondering if he felt it too, but he just looked at me and grabbed my shoulders with his hands.

“You’re so silly!”

Michael noticed my loosened attitude and slightly released the strength of his grip on me.

When he looked down, they looked very scary. When I first saw him, I was afraid of his expression. Later, I recognized his beast and thought he was the perfect person. Of course, I would not be afraid.

However, just now, I once again felt the intimidating aura from Michael’s body. I began to understand the silent respect that everyone around me had for Michael. He was the fiercest conqueror and was born with the power to rule everything.

And I didn’t feel this before because Michael never used this side of him to face me.

My body completely relaxed, and the anger that had just been ignited also disappeared. I began to realize my impulsive behavior. Michael was not a good person to communicate with. He was too self-righteous, and his power and status had given him enough capital, but I couldn’t deal with everything in the same way. Quarrels and venting would not solve the problem.

Damn it, I always lost control of my emotions when it came to Michael. It was not like me.

I rubbed my face. “Alright, I won’t ask you where you’re going. Let go of me now and go.”

“What about you?”

“Maybe I’ll take a nap, or maybe I’ll go out for a walk,”

“Where are you going?”

Michael stared at me sharply, which made me feel very uncomfortable. He didn’t even tell me his true whereabouts, but he tried to control everything about me.

However, I didn’t want to argue with him again, so I could only say, “I don’t know. As you said, I’m just looking for something to do. Maybe I’ll take a walk around here.”

Michael reached out and grabbed my wrist. He didn’t use much strength, but it was very oppressive.

“Without my permission, you’re not allowed to go anywhere. Don’t even think about leaving me, understand?”

I watched Michael’s back as he left, and I felt powerless inside out.

All the possibilities and hypotheses I’d thought of all night were vulnerable in the face of Michael’s unreasonable attitude.
