The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Laura's POV:

Faced with Rufus' inquiring eyes, I took the stance of a mother again and said in a nagging voice, "It's only because you won't find a mate and have a child. All my friends already have grandchildren. And you? You don't even have a girlfriend. At such an old age, I still have to worry about this matter for you every day."

Rufus was at a loss for words and he colored a little.

I scoffed and continued, "Of course we'll have to invite Crystal to the ball, since we extend the invitation all the Alphas. But I'm not certain if she will come or not. That's her choice then. We can't force anyone to attend this ball."

Rufus didn't continue the topic. In an indifferent voice, he said, "I'll leave this matter to you, mother."

I nodded and calmly picked up my phone, asking my subordinate to come and plan the ball with me.
