Chapter 65 The Man Who Hit The Window
Sylvia's POV:
Aside from the guards, there was no one else outside the dormitory. Flora and I ran all the way back. When we arrived at the door of the dormitory, we saw the two werewolves responsible for the roll call wandering around the corridor. Flora and I hurried forward and shouted our names to prove that we were not absent.
After entering our room, Flora quickly took out her student handbook and looked through it. I was still panting, so I poured two glasses of water and handed one to her.
"So, what's written in there?" I asked as I leaned closer to her while drinking water.
"There is really such a rule," Flora complained. Then she pointed at the part of the handbook where the rule was stated and continued, "We also have to gather at the playground for morning exercises at five-thirty."
"I think that means that we have to go to bed now." I took the student handbook from her and read it carefully. It seemed that the daily schedule of the military academy was very strict, and the management was totally militarized.
"I can't get up that early every day," Flora complained bitterly. She took two bites of her rat jerky and threw it away. "This can't make me full at all."
"Well, if we go to bed now, we won't feel hungry," I advised. Then I rubbed my belly. I had run back and consumed a lot of energy just now, so I felt even hungrier. But I was used to sleeping on an empty stomach. It wouldn't be a problem at all.
Not long after I turned off the lights, I heard Flora snore. She had already fallen asleep. But I was still wide awake. I kept tossing and turning in bed with my aching stomach.
Since I came to the palace with Rufus, I had been eating very well. Perhaps this was the reason why I could no longer stand hunger. I couldn't help but laugh at myself for acting like a spoiled princess now when I was really just a lowly slave.
Then I suddenly remembered Rufus. I wondered what he was doing now. Was he working or resting? I guessed he was dealing with business. As a powerful and self-disciplined lycan, he wouldn't allow himself to relax for a moment. So would he have time to miss me?
'Hey, Sylvia! What are you thinking?'
I covered my head with the quilt and scolded myself. Why couldn't I stop thinking about him? Every time I thought of him, my heart skipped a beat. I knew he was not someone I should dream of, but I still couldn't control my heart.
The more I thought about it, the messier my mind became. I sighed heavily. I didn't think we could have a happy ending. I'd better force myself to sleep.
At this moment, I heard some noise. It was as if a small stone was thrown on the window.
I thought I was just hallucinating. But when I got out of the quilt, I saw a small stone flying up from below and hitting the window precisely with just the right amount of strength, creating a light noise.
"I smell Rufus. My dear, go and check if he is here for you," Yana suddenly exclaimed excitedly in my head.
I didn't believe her. But I still got out of bed, put on my slippers, and walked to the window. Indeed, Rufus was outside. As soon as he saw me, he waved his hand.
Joy filled my heart in an instant. I quickly ran out of the dormitory and saw a tall figure under the tree from a distance. Everything looked so wonderful under the pale moonlight.
I slowed down and didn't dare to walk over, a little afraid that I was only imagining things.
"Why are you so slow? Do you want me to pick you up?" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
My illusion spoke, and his voice was still so pleasing to the ear. Although his tone was cold, and he sounded somewhat proud and arrogant, I actually thought it was a little cute. I was really blind by love now.
"I'm coming!" I quickly replied. I trotted over, feeling a little funny inside. Rumors had it that Rufus was a horrible and cruel lycan. But just now, he actually threw a stone at the window of a woman's room in the middle of the night. Wasn't it a childish thing to do? I guessed no one would believe me if I told them about it.
