The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Sylvia's POV:

I was startled and froze in my tracks, my puzzled eyes flying to him.

He tossed the cigarette butt he was holding into the trash, took his coat off, and left it on the balcony. Then he walked in and closed the balcony door.

He came closer to me, touched my cheek, and softly explained, "You're pregnant. It's not good for you to inhale the smoke."

I grabbed his hand and scrutinized his forehead carefully. "Maya told me you got into an accident while driving. Are you alright?"

"It's not a big deal. Why did you leave the hospital without informing me?" Rufus frowned, picked me up, stepped over the broken porcelain pieces that were lying on the ground, and deposited me on the bed. "I didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore, so I left." As I spoke, I helped him remove his thin jacket.

Rufus was very quiet tonight, and the usual smile in his eyes was missing. After settling me in bed, he went out to ask a servant to clean the room. Then, he went to the study to make a few phone calls. Quite some time passed before I finally got the chance to talk to him peacefully.

I walked to the study in my slippers and sat next to him. The small leather seat could barely hold both of us.

Rufus put his pen down with a sigh and pulled me into his lap. In a low voice, he asked, "What's wrong? Why aren't you in bed resting?"
