Abandoned by the Alpha, I Became the Lycan King's Mate-Chapter 120 - Pleading

[Margaret’s Perspective]

I made up my mind to talk to Elizabeth about this. I had spent enough time with Donald. If I was always interrupted by others, no matter what Donald thought, I was unwilling to accept it.

I went to the door and pulled it open. I was about to put on a stern face and a lecturing stance when I was surprised to find that the person at the door was not Elizabeth but Elliot.

“That was you?”

I hadn’t seen Elliot since this morning. I thought that Donald had transferred him away after he stopped watching over me. Now that I suddenly saw him, my first reaction was that Donald had changed his mind for some reason.

‘Has something else happened?’ I asked.

Elliot looked a little different from usual. He usually stood upright and was always full of fighting spirit and serious work. But at this moment, his head was lowered and I couldn’t see his expression clearly.

“May I speak inside, Miss Margaret?”

I felt a little strange about this, but I stepped back and let him in.

Elliot did not speak directly after entering. Instead, he stood in the middle of the room and looked a little troubled. His expression made me nervous. The first person I thought of was Donald. I had just separated from Donald. Did something happen to Donald?

“What’s wrong? Say something,” I said anxiously. “Did something happen to Donald?”

“No, no.” Elliot looked like he had finally made up his mind. He looked up at me and said, “I want to talk to you, Miss Margaret.”

“You wanted to see me?”

......

“Yes. I wanted to talk to you about Angel,” Elliot said.

Angel. The thought of that name made me feel suffocated.

I was relieved to hear that it wasn’t about Donald. I sat back on the bed and gestured for Elliot to sit too and let him speak slowly.

However, Elliot refused my kind offer. He stood there and said, “I know that Angel did something terrible to you. Her behavior was inappropriate, but Angel is not a bad person.

As I told you before, she’s just used to plundering and possessing. She sees you as an enemy now, but she doesn’t intend to hurt you.” 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

I frowned at Elliot and showed him the bruises on my body. “I’m already like this,” I said. “Are you still saying she didn’t hurt me?”

Elliot said hurriedly, “What she did was based on a desire to win. She didn’t do it with malice.”

I stared at him in silence.

Elliot continued, “Angel always had the best. She was the best. I used to think that no one deserved her favor, but the person she liked was His Majesty.

It was really not easy for her to get what she has today. Now that His Majesty has dismissed her because of you, I don’t know what our people will think of her if she goes back like this. She has always been arrogant and can’t bear such humiliation.”

Elliot took a deep breath and said, “I know I’m just one of His Majesty’s men to you, and I have no right to ask you for anything. However, I would like to ask you to plead with His Majesty to let Angel stay.”

I glared at Elliot, trying to see a hint of humor in it, but he looked serious.

This was what he really thought. He wanted me to plead for Angel in front of Donald. Putting aside whether I was willing to do such a thing, it was a question whether I could do it.

I took a deep breath and said, “What makes you think I can change Donald’s mind?”

“If you can’t do this, no one else can,” Elliot said.

The stabbing pain in my back continued to assault me, reminding me of what Angel had done to me. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

“I didn’t make any of the decisions concerning Angel, and I never said anything to Donald about taking revenge on her. She’s the commander of the assault team. This is a dismissal from your Lycan King. It has nothing to do with me,” I said coldly.

“Yes, I know you’re a good person, Miss Margaret.”

Elliot took a step forward excitedly and said, “But you can do this, right? Miss Margaret, I’ve always respected you. I’ve done everything His Majesty asked me to do these days. I’ve done my best for you without any neglect. Please don’t argue with Angel for my sake.”

“She’s the one who’s been causing trouble for me!” I shouted at Elliot. “I didn’t mess with her! It’s her, coming to hurt me repeatedly. All the bruises on my body now are because of her!

And now you’re begging me to plead for someone who hurt me! Why would I do that? You shouldn’t have come to me about these things. You should have gone to Angel and told her to behave.”
