A Beautiful Luna After Rejection

Chapter 36



Chapter 36: Grounded For A Week

Michael continued, “When a person is in two relationships, in theory, he can gain strength from both relationships. But your situation is a little different.”

Michael gave me a sympathetic look and said, “Your relationship is broken because of his bad behavior even before he marks the mate he has chosen; that was why you experienced pain.

“And when he has chosen his mate, your wolf was torn apart by this pain because your mate relationship has not been completely dissolved. And because he has a new source of strength from his new mate, they have the emotional foundation, which supplements his strength, so all the damage on you has been doubled.”

I knew about the thing Michael was telling me, which was why I hated Robert. It was unfair that he received no punishment when he was the one who betrayed me in the relationship.

“But this kind of damage is reversible,” Michael said, looking at me. “You’ve already rejected him. You should be able to feel that the connection between you two is weakening, and you are also recovering from the damage that you’ve suffered, but the process will take quite some time. It could be days, weeks, or months. Killing him is a way to end this once and for all.”

“No, I can’t,” I said slowly and firmly.

Even if I knew that Robert’s death could solve my problem and that my problem was caused by him, I still couldn’t allow Michael to kill someone because of this.

The value of life shouldn’t be treated so dismissively.

Michael looked at me seriously and said, “Oh my Cecily, my little wolf, after everything you’ve been through, do you still want to forgive the person who hurt you? Is that kindness or stupidity?”

I couldn’t answer Michael because of my principles.

I hated what Robert had done to me, but I didn’t want to dwell on the past and blame it all on others.

I wanted to move on. I needed to take control of my life in the future. There was no need to dwell on the past and use it as an excuse to hurt others. It felt wrong.

I shrugged. “I didn’t want to do it anyway,” I said. “And if, as you say, it has to do with the depth of human affection, then I have no feelings for him at all now, and that connection should disappear soon.”

“Well, you’ve convinced me,” Michael said, looking me in the eye. “But only if he doesn’t provoke me again, or I can’t promise that I won’t do anything to him.”

As long as Robert had any sense at all, he wouldn’t provoke a young and aggressive Lycan prince.

But if I had to be honest, I was worried about Robert’s brain development. I used to think he was an intelligent man. But judging from his poor performance at the ceremony, I could only say that I was sorry I felt that about him.

But with Michael, I’d done my best. If Robert wanted to die in Michael’s hands, it was none of my business.

“But the other thing won’t go away,” Michael said. “I may not be able to mark you now, but you must be punished for sneaking away.”

He was going to bring it up again. I looked at him angrily. I was still angry about it.

Michael reached out and pinched my face. “Don’t try to trick me. You are not allowed to leave the house this week.”

Was I grounded?

I rolled my eyes at Michael for coming up with such a boring and old-fashioned way to punish me.

“If you’re not willing to accept it, I can change the limitation of the grounding to cover this room.” Michael observed my expression and said slowly, “But you can rest assured that I’ve already packed up all my sister’s things and sent them to her so that some people won’t get jealous and make a scene for some inexplicable reason.”

He didn’t even allow me to go out and interact with others, yet he ridiculed me for being jealous. This was hypocritical.

I knew that it was useless to oppose Michael. He wouldn’t change his mind.

I accepted my fate and nodded. I proposed my conditions and said, “Then, I want my luggage and textbooks, clothes for all seasons, cosmetics, and my laptop.

“If you don’t allow me to attend classes, then I’ll also need all the lecture notes, class notes, and recommended readings that I missed. I’ll also need someone to help me bring over my assignments. Since you’re so great and went to my dormitory to get my stuff here before I knew it, these should be easy to get.”

Michael narrowed his eyes at me, and I looked back at him provocatively.
