The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Sylvia's POV:

Rufus went to investigate the case, and I went back to his palace. I stayed in my room the whole time and didn't plan on going anywhere.

Everyone in the imperial palace was worried about Ethan's condition after the accident. It wasn't the right time for me to do anything reckless except for waiting patiently for Rufus to come back.

Still, I felt very uneasy as I lay on the rocking chair and recalled what Joanna told me. I couldn't help but feel like I had missed something.

Just then, I heard a knock on the door. It was Maya, and she came to bring me some food.

I touched my stomach, realizing that I hadn't eaten anything for almost an entire day. I was really hungry.

I stood up and sat at the table, wanting to see what Maya made for me. However, I didn't expect her to give me shaved ice. It was my favorite grape flavor, but the weather was getting cold, and I didn't want to eat something cold in a chilly weather.
