Chapter 1092 Great Scourge
Rufus' POV:
I sat at my desk and massaged my temples. Too many issues had bothered me lately, and each one of them was responsible for my current headache.
The vampires had managed to infiltrate the werewolf pack, and had even murdered and manipulated an Alpha for a long time, but no one had noticed it
Such a serious matter didn't come to light until a few days ago. The situation had become graver than expected.
What was more annoying was that even though I was carrying out the investigations myself, I couldn't pinpoint the purpose of the vampires right now. As a result, my only option was to declare curfew across the entire country, strengthen patrols and investigate suspicious people.
However, this solution not only disrupted the movement between packs, but also affected the empire's economic development.
I had been occupied with this issue for most of the week, and we were already seeing some results. We had captured some vampires that had been hiding among the werewolves.
However, the fact was that the situation among the werewolves was steadily worsening. There were more vampires still concealed that hadn't been caught.
The longer we took to solve this matter, the more disadvantageous it would be for the werewolves.
I tossed the pen back into the pen stand in irritation and fell back heavily in my chair.
I couldn't subdue my agitation. At this time, I heard light footsteps at the door.
It was Adela.
She had come again.
I felt very disagreeable. She had come here every day this week, and her forced intimacy made me particularly uncomfortable. Being around her didn't relax me. I preferred to stay alone all day than see her.
I was getting increasingly grumpy. The thought of leaving her far away flitted around rampantly in my mind.
My eyelids twitched violently and my headache worsened.
I did my best to tamp down my repulsi onand kept convincing myself that she was the mate designated to me by the Moon Goddess, and I had to be patient and getalong well with her... Content bélongs to =

I slowly got to my feet and looked at Adela who had just entered the study.
I wanted to give her a smile, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't do it.
My lips wouldn't obey me.
Cbserving her smiling face, my expression became serious. I held back my annoyance and try so hard not to turn my back on her. The education I had received since childhood taught me that was inappropriate to present my back to a lady.
Adela slowly approached me with a serving tray in her hands and said, "Your Majesty, I've prepared your favorite food."
As Adela's scent hit my nostrils, I reflexively tock a step back.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Thank you. Just put it on the table.” I said indifferently.
Adela nodded and placed the tray on the other table.
"I don't need your help with anything here. You can go back.” Then I sat back down and was about to continue with my work
Adela blinked and looked pitiful, as if she was about to burst into tears. She asked, "Your Majesty. do you loathe me so much? You don't even want to talk to me..."
I raised my head, shot her a frosty glance, aiid ignored her sad Zl expression. Picking up a document, dismissively said, "I still have te deal wit. government affairs. Yowcan leave now." id
Then, please eat something first. The servants have told me that you're too bugy to have dinner, so I specially codked a few dishes for you." Adelaivas persistent. She < o icked up the tray of food againand came oser to me with the inténtion of feeding me. "Health matters the post. How can you skip dinner?
our Majesty, let me feedyou." "No! it there," I hastily stopped er, behaving as if she had the ague. I stood up and quickly walked to the other side of the table.
