The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Sylvia's POV:

"Richard! Why the hell would you do such a thing?!" Ethan instantly flew into a rage. Without thinking, he strode over to Richard and slapped him across the face. "Haven't you repented?" Richard covered his swollen cheek. Eyes wide as saucers, he looked so stunned he couldn't even speak.

"How dare you look at me like that? Spit it out, boy! Are you the one behind this?" Ethan was so angry that he raised his leg and kicked Richard on the chest.

This brought Richard to his senses and he cried out, "Why would I do that? I've been so busy with work every single damned day! How would I have found the time to do such a thing?" After saying that, his eyes darted over to me and Rufus. He said sincerely, "It really wasn't me. Do you believe me? I'm done with my old ways. Why would I make trouble for all of us?" The truth was, I didn't believe Richard. Only a select few people knew about the curse. Besides, with Rufus gone, Richard would have nothing to lose but everything to gain.

"I should never have let you out of the dungeon!" Ethan roared. Obviously, he didn't believe Richard either. He was so angry that his whole body trembled.

Richard wore an aggrieved expression and slumped his shoulders.

Leadership qualities were more important for a ruler, while it didn't matter whether they could have descendants or not. Others felt that although Rufus was innocent, he wasn't qualified to be the heir to the lycan throne. After all, to
