The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Crystal's POV:

I got in Rufus' car and it drove slowly away from the imperial palace. I felt strange and uneasy, so I frequently turned my head to look at Rufus who was resting with his eyes closed.

Rufus seemed to have noticed my gaze, so he rubbed my hair. He had behaved intimately towards me like this more than once in the past two days.

There were questions on my mind, but I kept quiet. The thought of my son sprang to mind.

Rufus opened his eyes, glanced at me, and said, "The groom confessed that he had secretly hidden Arron in a garbage truck and transferred him out of the imperial palace before it was locked down." The person behind this obviously wanted him to kill Arron. But, the man's greed led him to discreetly make contact with a human trafficker. He was hoping to make a quick buck by selling Arron."

My stomach dropped again when I learned about the human trafficker. I had hoped that the groom's confession meant my son was out of harm's way, but instead my baby boy had fallen into the hands of a human trafficker.

"Then, we have to hurry up. Human traffickers are usually very cautious. They'll probably use a bunch of go-betweens to make the deal. If we are late, we might not find Arron at all." Anxious, I reached for Rufus' sleeves absentmindedly.
