The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Sylvia's POV:

I was too stunned to speak. My mind was in a mess.

Today was Rufus' birthday? Why hadn't he told me about it?

"So, you didn't know? The ball tonight was actually a birthday party for Prince Rufus arranged by the queen herself!" Flora exclaimed. "Except he ran away halfway through his own party and left the guests unattended. The queen usually favors Prince Rufus, but even she got angry tonight."

For some reason, hearing Flora's words made me feel suffocated. I got out of bed and headed to the window, hoping for some fresh air. Meanwhile, Flora continued her story, "It seemed that Prince Rufus' act made a lot of the noble ladies very unhappy. I would have guess that his departure felt like a slap to their faces. Now, there are a lot of complaints about Prince Rufus' behavior going around." Flora then looked at me and asked, "Are you okay, Sylvia? Why did you open the window? Are you feeling hot?"

As the cold wind blew on my face, I leaned against the window and gave Flora an absentminded nod. To be honest, all I could think about right now was Rufus.

Flora seemed to buy my answer and continued again, "Oh, I also heard that it was Prince Richard who appeased the crowd when Prince Rufus left. He decided to formally announce his high-profile proposal to Lucy as his mate and displayed their love there. Obviously, everyone has a better impression of Prince Richard now."
