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. That way, I'd be able to spend more time with Sylvia again and only tend to the government when necessary. Such a plan sounded wonderful to me. Therefore, having children as soon as possible didn't sound like such a bad idea after all.
