The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Contact

Rufus' POV:

I could feel my heart sinking. "I don't know why," Arron mumbled in his cute little voice. "Mommy just told me not to."

I heaved a short sigh. "Arron, are you very familiar with your Grandma Laura?"

"Yes! Before we came to the imperial palace, I used to make video calls to Grandma. Beryl and Mommy, too!" This time, he did not hesitate.

I didn't know what to feel. It seemed that Laura and Crystal had kept a lot from me over the years.

"How long have you been calling each other?" I prodded.

Arron spread his hands and counted his fingers. "As long as I can remember? Three years? Maybe five, I guess. I'm not really sure, but it's been a long time." I narrowed my eyes and made some calculations in my head. Crystal had been installed in the border pack exactly five years ago. If what Arron said was true, then Crystal had been in touch with my mother the entire time.

I realized that Arron had grown quiet, and I turned to see him looking up at me, waiting for my response. I mustered an awkward smile to hide the bitterness I felt.
