The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Crystal's POV:

The out-of-control three forces my body had experienced had left lasting damage to it. I had never expected that I would lose movement in my legs one day. I wanted to walk, but my legs couldn't take the strain.

One round of therapy later, I felt like I had done a ten-kilometer run with a heavy load. I hadn't even felt this exhausted when I'd trained under Leonard. Now I was almost ready to drop with fatigue because of my therapy.

I was sweating profusely. Rufus carried me to the sofa.

"Drink some warm water first." Rufus took a tray, which was laden with several energy-replenishing snacks and water, from the servant.

Collapsing against the back of the sofa, I narrowed my eyes and nodded. In reality, I didn't even have the strength to move my fingers, let alone drink water. Rufus seemed to understand my state and lifted the glass to my mouth.

I lowered my head and sipped the warm water.

After I finished drinking, he produced a tube of ointment from somewhere, telling me that it would relax my muscles and help them recover.

"Just put it on the table. I'll apply it later." I shifted a little and settled down into a more comfortable position, intending to take a nap and rest a little.

However, Rufus didn't let me rest. Instead, he lifted me and seated me on his lap like a child. "I'll give
