Skylar's POV:

Dylan had been very busy recently.

He didn't have much time to spend with me.

I heard what had happened to Jennifer and Elizabeth, and I decided to ask Dylan about it.

"Dylan, how are Jennifer and Mr.Jones doing? Have they found Mrs.Jones?"

I asked.

"Not yet.Jennifer and Mr.Jones are looking for her.As for me, I'm going to the royal palace to see what I can find out."

Dylan had a serious expression.

"Skylar, so much has happened lately.Please, be careful.Don't worry about Jennifer.She will be safe and sound with Mr.Jones by her side."

"Wait, you're going to the royal palace?"

I grabbed his wrist in a hurry, unwilling to let him go.

"Dylan, are you going alone? Isn't that dangerous? I'm worried about you.Let me come with you."

"No way, Skylar.You were just released from the hospital.I forbid you from coming with me,"

Dylan said in a stern voice.

"Be good and stay on Marge Island."

"I want to be with you!" I whined, slipping my arms around his waist and leaning my head against his chest.

"Dylan, we're mates.You can't leave me."

"It's exactly because we are mates that I can't let you come with me."

Dylan gently pushed me away.

"Skylar, you are not a child.You can't act so recklessly.I'm begging you as your mate to stay on Marge Island."

"I..."

I still wanted to argue with Dylan, but I could see in his eyes that he wasn't going to budge.

If I couldn't persuade him otherwise, I had no choice but to verbally agree with his decision.

"Fine, I'll stay put,"

I lied through my teeth.

If he wasn't going to let me come with, I would just have to follow him in secret.

"Good girl."

Dylan smiled and touched the tip of my nose.

I stuck out my tongue at him and smiled shyly.

‘Dylan, I'm sorry.I can't do as you wish.I have to go with you, even if it means I'll do it in secret.

How can I let you sneak into the royal palace alone? You are my mate.

No matter what difficulties we face, we have to face them together.
