The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Sylvia's POV:

My body was so close to Rufus. His hands on my back felt hard as iron. I felt like crying but there were no tears left in me anymore. I regretted staying to find pants. I should have left when he told me to! There was stinging feeling on my chin. It must have been scratched by his claws.

I brought up my hands to push him away, but I failed.

I looked at him in fear, and he was also staring sharply at me. It felt like there was a storm brewing in his deep eyes.

He reached up and touched my neck, which made me freeze up. I did not forget about the rumors about his cruelty. I even heard one time that he had once snapped the neck of a she-wolf in bed.

He had been looking at my neck for quite a long time. What was he going to do? Was he thinking of ways to break my neck?

I mustered up all my strength to push him away. He paused and stared at my face before slowly approaching again. There was not much expression on his face, but his eyes were dark and had some kind of emotion I couldn't fathom.

He lowered his head to face me. I closed my eyes in fear, but suddenly, I could feel the wound on my chin getting licked. His tongue felt warm and it numbed the back of my head.

This action felt gentle beyond words. In fact, if people saw us right now, they could think that we were a loving couple.

No. I couldn't afford to have such thoughts. I just held my breath and didn't dare to move, but the small hairs on my arms stood on end. I made sure to avoid eye contact and only stared into the nothingness. I was afraid of disgruntling him for fear that he would eat me alive.

I noticed that the insides of his ears were pink. Usually, wolves had black ears. I had never seen ears like his.
