The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Crystal's POV:

I quickly looked down and pretended to sip my juice.

Once Rufus was done with his meal, I couldn't wait to leave.

As soon as I left the palace grounds and reached an isolated spot, I couldn't hold back my tears anymore.

His memories of me were gone, but something still remained there. Once habits were formed, they could subconsciously change a person's preference. Even after five years, Rufus was in every part of my life. The way I ate and slept, and even the shower gel I used, were all his favorites.

It was the same with Rufus.

I sobbed silently as sadness drowned me. This sadness of loving him but not being able to be with him had often invaded my mind during the past five years.

I knew I shouldn't behave like this. I should have just let go since we could never be together again. But I really couldn't. I was being selfish and greedy and craved the warmth that didn't belong to me anymore. Rufus was the one who pulled me out of the abyss of desperation and warmed me with his love, giving me a chance to see this world with new hope. I really didn't want to go back to a life without him. Rufus was my light. I couldn't give him up, but I had to.
