Rufus' POV:

Hearing this, I was surprised. In my eyes, my father was still in his prime. Why did he want to step down for the throne so early?

I didn't respond. Perhaps he was just exhausted because of what happened to Richard. Maybe he would reconsider his decision after a while. Plus, I didn't want to inherit the throne just yet. I wanted to spend more time with Sylvia before settling down and having a child.

Once I became the lycan king, I would be completely consumed by government affairs. I didn't want to become a machine who lived solely to work. But even I had to admit that it would be nice to have a child soon. Be it a son or a daughter, I could pass the throne to my child when the time was right.
