Chapter 725
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 725 What Is She Hiding
Rufus’ POV:
Using the flowers in my hand, I managed to successfully lure Sylvia to an open space.
Fortunately, no guards were nearby and we made no noise. When Sylvia attacked me again, I locked her in my arms to prevent her from running away. Then I repeatedly called out her name like I had done the last time.
After a while, she finally snapped back to her senses. She looked at me with puzzlement. After a long pause, she asked, “Did I lose control just now?”
“Did you feel different?” I asked nervously.
She nodded with a bewildered expression. “Yes, I did. Has this happened to me before? Because this feeling of losing control is quite familiar to me this time.”
After hesitating for a while, I disclosed to Sylvia how she had almost K*lled Richard in the forbidden forest when she had lost control before. Noreen had been frequently appearing by Sylvia’s side, which made me increasingly suspicious and worried.
I was afraid that Sylvia really had some connection the black witch race. I couldn’t keep this issue buried anymore, so I had to bring it up with her. Sylvia’s face fell and she looked down. “Why didn’t you tell me this earlier?”
“I thought it was just a coincidence. And I didn’t want to worry you before I had got some clarity on this matter,” I explained.
Sylvia met my eyes and freed herself from my arms. She looked very distressed. Her silence was making me panic. I wanted to explain my actions further, but she spoke first. “Have you suspected for long that I have a relationship with Noreen?” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Her dismal tone made me pause for a second before I finally nodded.
She didn’t say anything else. She looked down again. Her thick eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes, shielding her emotions from me. She fidgeted with the b*ttons on her dress and seemed reluctant to talk to me. I felt a twinge of uneasiness, as if I had done something wrong. I grasped her hand, wanting her to give me some response.
“Sylvia, I don’t care who you are. All I know is that you’re my mate. And that will never change. I just wanted to uncover the truth before I told you everything.” After saying that, I stared at the hair on top of her head, feeling a little sad. “Sylvia, say something.”
She raised her head and gave me a fleeting look. Then she held my hand back and said, “I don’t know what to say.”
I knew she was still mad at me for hiding all of this from her. I knew I was in the wrong, so I kept my mouth shut. After a long pause, I said, “I am really sorry. I won’t do it again.”
Unexpectedly, Sylvia burst into laughter and her face lit up. She raised her chin and innocently said, “I’m not angry with you.”
“But you didn’t say anything…” I felt a little wronged. Sylvia tricked me on purpose.
She gave me another cheeky smile. Falling into my arms, she stared at the night sky silently.
Holding her snugly, I thought for a while and asked, “Why has Noreen been bothering you so much? Did she tell you anything?”
“I don’t know. Maybe she’s bored,” Sylvia replied offhandedly.
“Then…”
I wanted to ask more questions, but she interrupted me. “I’m exhausted, Rufus. Let’s go back and get some rest. Dawn is almost here. Let’s catch a few hours’ sleep before coming back for Leonard’s funeral.”
Sylvia acted like a spoiled child. She looked the same, but I felt like something was off about her. I could sense that she was hiding something from me.
“Rufus, let’s go back,” she urged again and left by herself. Still a little worried, I stared at her receding figure and hurried to follow her.
