Chapter 124 Dispute At The School Gate
Sylvia's POV:
I ran all the way out of the dormitory. The wind and my breathing intertwined and passed by my ears. As the cold wind blew on my face, I felt the pain. But I didn't have time to care about it because the pain in my heart was even worse. It was as if my whole heart was being fried.
I liked Rufus, and he was the only one who occupied my heart. But I had actually forgotten such an important thing as the full moon.
Rufus must be in so much pain now. And thinking of this, I couldn't help but want to cry. I hated myself because there was nothing I could do to help him.
When I arrived at the school gate, I was stopped by the same guards who stopped me yesterday.
They blocked the gate, wearing straight faces. "Why are you here again?"
"Please let me pass. I really have something important to do today." After saying this, I anxiously looked at the full moon in the sky, wondering how Rufus was doing now.
"You also said the same last night." One of the men wearing green stripes uniform seemed to be their leader. He walked up to me with a serious face and said, "No matter how important it is, no one is allowed to enter or leave the academy after the curfew."
"Just this once, please. It's really a matter of life and death." As I spoke, I passed through the gap between them. No matter what, I must see Rufus tonight.
But after taking just a few steps, the leader of the guards grabbed me and pulled me to the other side. "If I say you can't go out, you can't go out. Go back to your room and have a good sleep. You can go out after five o'clock tomorrow."
"No, tomorrow will be too late." I was grief-stricken. Every minute and second passed was torture for me. How could I wait until five o'clock tomorrow?
The guards looked impatient. Obviously, they didn't want to listen to me anymore. The leader waved his hand and said, "Go! You can't go out. If you insist, don't blame us for being rude to you."
I was so anxious that I pushed him away and tried to break out. "You can do whatever you want to do to me when I come back. But I really have to go right now."
"Believe it or not, you will be expelled from the academy," the leader of the guards snarled. Then several guards rushed up to stop me.
I dodged them nimbly. "Just pretend you didn't see me."
"Which class are you from?" The leader of the guards seemed even angrier when he didn't catch me. "You little girl, I swear you can't walk out of the gate today."
He then turned to his men and ordered, "Hurry, stop her!"
All the guards swarmed up, and even the two guards, who were patrolling, joined them. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Soon I was caught by three tall guards. They pressed my shoulders so hard that I couldn't move.
"Let me out!" I kept struggling, not minding my image. But I got even more desperate when I heard the leader order the guards to lock the gate. "What is going on here?"
At this moment, a majestic male voice sounded behind me. I turned my head in pleasant surprise because I recognized it was Blair. I had a class with him every day, so I was very familiar with his voice.
"What are you looking at? Behave yourself," said one of the guards holding my shoulders. He increased the strength of his hand discontentedly.
"What is happening?" Blair asked again. He walked up to me, looked at the guards with a frown, and ordered, "Let her go."
The guards had high respect for Blair, so they immediately released me when they heard his order.
I rubbed my shoulders in pain and stood up hastily. "Sir, I really have to go out for a while."
"Don't worry, that won't be a problem. But tell me the reason first," Blair said gently.
How could I not worry? I looked at him anxiously, wondering if he knew about the curse. I hesitated for a while and finally told him that I only wanted to see Rufus.
As soon as I finished my words, Blair looked up at the full moon in the sky and frowned. "Not tonight."
I was pleasantly surprised. It seemed that he also knew about the curse on Rufus.
