The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Adela's POV:

I was taken aback by the sound of a child's voice. I turned around and saw a gorgeous little girl standing in the doorway. Her white dress and lustrous blond curls made her look like a cherub.

She looked anything but angelic at the moment, though. The little one stood with her hands akimbo, her teeth bared as she glared at me in unmistakable animosity.

I felt embarrassed by her clear, bright gaze. I quickly shifted away from Rufus, buttoning my shirt as I went. Then, I grabbed the stockings I had discarded on the floor and stuffed them into my pocket. When I raised my head again, I found that she-wolf who had been dead set on keeping me away from Rufus was standing beside the little girl. She shot me a knowing look, not even bothering to hide the mockery in her eyes.

From what I had heard from the guards, she was the Alpha from the border pack. She was touted to be a capable and fierce fighter. I believed them, especially given the deformity on her face. And I was convinced that her character was just as flawed.

I didn't know how long the child and the she-wolf had been there. Did they see me trying to seduce Rufus? The bitch had been against me since the first night we met. I had no doubt she must be laughing at my foiled attempt.

I lowered my head and tried to appear mortified. Then I peeked at Rufus through my lashes and noticed some color in his cheeks. It seemed that he was even more embarrassed than I was. He lifted the blankets, getting out of bed to put on his coat. Although his expression didn't change much, I managed to catch a glimpse of the telltale bulge in his crotch.

I felt better in an instant, knowing that anyone who saw it would inevitably presume that something was going on between us.

Judging by Rufus' scowl, he was probably mad about that bold she-wolf barging into his room without warning. Rufus was the lycan king, after all. He might have been able to overlook a single
