Chapter 896

• “You think choosing a mate is something you just do on a whim?” Algernon's voice was low, carrying a beast-like tremor. “If you swallow prey you don't like, you might feel sick for a few days. And we are talking about choosing a mate with whom Derek has no feelings!" He paused for a moment to soothe his mood.
• "Derek doesn't love Michelle. You know it, right? Forcing him to mark her is a desecration of the Moon Goddess, and Michelle won't receive any blessings. I never forced him to marry Michelle all these years because I hoped time would ease his obsession with his former mate. But he just won't let go.” He took a deep sigh as he said so.
