Abandoned by the Alpha, I Became the Lycan King's Mate-Chapter 305 ’I’ll take you with me

[Margaret’s Perspective]

My father had never truly understood me, nor had he ever loved me seriously, not even once. The things he was doing right now were extremely real and concrete evidence of this.

I hadn’t expected that the first "difficulty" of today’s wedding would actually come from my own kin, which was a terribly ironic turn of events.

"If both Elizabeth and I were in danger, you would choose to protect her directly, wouldn’t you? I really didn’t want to ask you this question directly, but now..."

I said, followed by a somewhat mocking laugh, then shifted my gaze away from Frantz and looked distantly towards Donald, who had been watching this direction the whole time, "It seems I don’t need an answer at all. Elizabeth is my only younger sister, and even if it costs me my life, I won’t let her come to any harm. You can rest assured about that."

Frantz seemed to be stunned by the question I raised earlier, and only after a long while did he inexplicably furrow his brows—he seemed unable to understand my disappointment in him.

But at this moment I didn’t care about any of that. Amidst the romantic background music that was playing, I paid no attention to Frantz’s threats and warnings. Instead, I looked resolutely at Donald and began taking steps, drawing closer to him little by little!

The guests at the scene seemed quite surprised by my actions, for in conventional societal weddings, it is the father’s role to be the last escort for his daughter, personally leading the bride to the groom.

I didn’t pay attention to the murmurs around me and walked determinedly towards Donald.

"Margaret! Have you gone mad? What are you doing?"

"Margaret?"

The exclamation of Frantz and Nora rose behind me, which I completely ignored, resolutely heading towards Donald, as if he were my ultimate, most certain choice. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Donald naturally didn’t miss the commotion and clamor from my direction. I watched as his handsome features gradually furrowed into a frown, and then he took long strides to meet me!

It turns out that in the eyes of the one who loves you, he can take the initiative to walk towards you.

Donald came closer and took hold of my hand, his eyes filled with concern, "What’s wrong? Did you argue with your father?"

I shook my head slightly while looking at him, my eyes misty, "It’s all unimportant, let’s go."

Donald glanced back at the two people behind me, but quickly returned his gaze and grasped my hand tightly, as if to embed me into his very bones, "Alright, I’ll take you away."

I felt at that moment that, aside from "I love you," this was the most touching declaration of love I had ever heard in my life. Donald always knew what I needed most.

Nobody knew just how much courage it had taken me to overcome this sudden incident. I had to admit that my parents had not loved me as much as I had imagined!

The music continued, and as Donald and I walked over the carpet strewn with flowers, applause and cheers slowly rose around us. The journey wasn’t long, but I felt incredibly satisfied and fulfilled.

So this was what it felt like to walk side by side with Donald.

Licia and Prince Henry, as well as the various ministers of the Royal City were sitting at the very front of the left side of the entire hall. When Donald led me up the steps at the center of the chapel, all eyes converged on us, including those of Licia and Henry.

The music faded, and what followed was the priest’s deep, solemn voice:

"Thanks to the gracious Moon goddess, in this holy and solemn moment, we are gathered here to witness the grand and romantic wedding of this couple."

"My most noble and incomparable Lycan King, do you take this woman before you—Margaret, to be your wife, to live together in the sacred bond of marriage, to love her, cherish her, comfort her, protect her, and to stay devoted to her for the rest of your life, through sickness and health, prosperity and adversity?"

As the priest chanted these matrimonial vows, his gaze was fixed on Donald. I was extremely nervous and excited, yet I inadvertently glanced at the priest, and it was this casual glimpse that helped me divinely save Donald in the following seconds!

One moment the priest was devoutly reciting the matrimonial vows for Donald and me, and the next, his eyes held a sudden change with a bone-chilling murderous intent!

"I do..."

Donald said this tenderly to me, and at that same moment, the priest quickly pulled a handgun from his wide sleeve and aimed straight at Donald’s head! There was also me, who with a loud shout, swiftly stepped forward and with an incredibly forceful karate chop knocked the priest’s gun-wielding wrist aside.

"Bang!"

The gunshot shattered all the romance and sanctity of the scene, signaling the end of the wedding ceremony.

"Ahhhh!"

"It’s an attack! Help!"

"Someone protect His Majesty and the Lycan Queen, we’re under attack!"
