The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Sylvia's POV:

I hesitated for a few moments before answering the call, and talked to him as usual.

His deep pleasant voice washed over me. He told me that he missed me and that the meeting was over.

In fact, I already knew from Blair that the meeting had ended, but I still had to pretend to be surprised. "The meeting ended so early! Does that mean we can get to the restaurant early?"

There was a long pause. Then Rufus' apologetic voice came through. "I'm sorry, Sylvia. I wanted to come home earlier, but I have other plans. I'm afraid I'm going to have to cancel our date tonight."

"It's fine. We can go there some other day. Anyway, it's not like the restaurant is going to shut down soon," I joked, trying to cheer him up.

I could sense Rufus' guilt as he sighed. "We'll go together next time. I'll be back after finishing my work. I want to eat spaghetti with shrimp tonight. Will you cook it for me?"
