The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)

Chapter 203 Visiting The Patient

Sylvia's POV:

Flora and Harry fought the entire way here. Because Flora hadn't informed Harry about my condition earlier, he was furious.

Now that they were here, they refused to acknowledge each other's existence. The two of them sat in front of my bed in silence.

"Where's Rufus?" Flora finally broke the silence and turned to me in confusion.

"The forbidden forest." I reached for a slice of apple Harry carved for me and took a big bite before telling them about Rin.

Flora cast a disdainful glance at the rabbitshaped apple slice in my hand and said, "You should have kept that wolf."

"Are you kidding me? It's a wild wolf, not a werewolf. It can't live the way we do. It was the right decision to leave it be," Harry shouted, waving the fruit knife angrily.

Flora pursed her lips impatiently and threw a pear to him. "Here. Why don't you carve a tiger for me?"

Although Harry shot her a hateful glare, he proceeded to carve an angry-looking kitten out of the pear for her.

I couldn't help but chuckle with amusement. "Oh, by the way, how's Warren?"

Flora nibbled on the kitten's ear and murmured cryptically, "He's a rogue pretending to be a serious guy."

"What?" I didn't hear her clearly, so I asked again.

"I know what happened!" I didn't know why, but Harry suddenly grew excited at the mention of Warren's name. He leaned close to me, with a smirk on his face. "That day, in the equipment room, he was with Flora and—"

Before Harry could finish his sentence, Flora's hand flew to cover his mouth.

"And Blair was there, too. We went to the hospital together." Flora finished Harry's sentence with an unnatural smile on her face.

I squinted at her in suspicion. It sounded like something was being omitted. Just as I opened my mouth to interrogate her, Rufus came back.

When Rufus came in, Flora breathed a sigh of relief and gobbled up the pear as quickly as she could. Then she grabbed Harry's hand and started dragging him away. "We'll leave you two in peace and go back to school."

"What? No! Sylvia, when did you get together with Prince Rufus?" Seeing Rufus here, Harry seemed to just realize something and stared at us in shock.

"Shut up, will you?" Flora covered Harry's mouth in exasperation and dragged him away.

With them gone, it was only Rufus and me left in the room. Suddenly, Rufus handed me a small wooden whistle.

"What's this? Did you make this yourself?" I held the whistle up and looked at it carefully.

"Yeah. Blow this by the entrance to the forbidden forest and Rin will come running out to see you." "Woah! Really?" I raised my head to look at him in surprise.

"I thought you'd want to see Rin again. With this, you can meet her any time you want without entering the dangerous forest," Rufus said softly, reaching out to tuck my hair behind my ear. "Don't worry. We came to an agreement on it." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Hearing this, I clutched the whistle tightly and my heart fluttered in my chest. The whistle couldn't have been made on such short notice, so I doubted Rufus made it on a whim. It must've taken him considerable time to craft it.

I couldn't help but spread out my arms to him. "Hug me!"

Without any hesitation, Rufus scooped me up and set me down on his lap. He planted a kiss on my forehead and whispered, "Don't do that again." I nestled inside his arms and nodded obediently. Then, he cupped my chin and forced me to look into his deep eyes. "You should've told me earlier about Kyle and Lucy."

I wrinkled my nose and felt a little frustrated. "I didn't know this would happen. I wouldn't have told anyone about their secret. Why couldn't they just let me go?"

"Not everyone is as innocent as you," Rufus said in a harsh tone, tightening his grip on my chin. "If you encounter something like that again, promise you'll tell me first."

"Okay, I promise." Rufus didn't let me go until he was certain I was being sincere.

Then, he hugged me tightly. "Don't get me wrong, Sylvia. I'm not mad at you."

"I know..." I kissed the stubble on Rufus' chin and my expression softened. "So what happened to Kyle and Lucy after?"

"I locked Kyle up and interrogated him. But he made no mention of Lucy, so I couldn't call her out. Richard has taken her back." After saying that, Rufus pressed his lips against mine and I stopped asking questions. He reached under my hospital gown and started pinching my nipples, whispering

in a husky voice, "Don't think about them anymore. I'll look into it. I'll never let something like this happen to you ever again."

My body began to heat up under his warm touch. Trembling, I asked softly, "Don't you want to rest first? You've had a long day."

"Don't worry. I'm not tired." Rufus' kiss grew even more passionate. "When I finally managed to send the grey wolf away, Harry and Flora showed up. Now, they're gone, and we're finally alone. Don't try to drive me away."

"I won't." I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back fiercely.

Just as we were about to get more intimate, the door swung open.

Fortunately, Rufus reacted quickly and covered my half-naked upper body with the blanket.
