Chapter 247 Manic
Rufus' POV:
I was surrounded by a group of elders who wanted to discuss important government affairs with me. But I felt that I was getting more and more distracted and a little hot. My mind seemed to be burning, and I wanted to give vent to my emotions.
A light flashed quickly on my face. When I raised my eyes, I saw that a reporter was taking photos of me.
Inexplicably, I got even more annoyed.
Not only was the outside world very noisy, but also inside my head. Omar had been very agitated.
"Rufus, go to Maya and get the bouquet back. I really love it," he kept shouting at me.
But I just ignored him and tried to concentrate on listening to the elders in front of me.
"Rufus, it won't take that long to take the bouquet back. You can continue your discussion with them afterward. The fragrance of that bouquet is the best I have ever smelled so far. It's so refreshing! I feel like I am full of energy right now. Maybe you can consider planting that kind of flower in front of the palace. But for now, the top priority is to get the bouquet back from Maya," Omar said again.
I felt like I couldn't bear it anymore. But I tried my best to suppress the uneasiness in my heart and said, "Will you shut up!" Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
It was rare for Omar to be disobedient. He said anxiously, "I'm just asking you to take the bouquet back. It's not a big deal. Why are you so upset? I think Maya is just somewhere around here. Go get it now, so it won't delay your business."
"Stop it, Omar! There are so many elders here. Can't you wait until I'm done?" I tried to talk to Omar calmly, but he didn't listen to me at all.
My head hurt so much. It was as if countless hammers were knocking on it. This kind of pain and feeling was very familiar. But there was still some time before the next full moon. My curse wouldn't attack so soon.
"I just love those flowers! Go get the bouquet back right now!"
"I said shut up!"
The conversation around me disappeared at once. The elder in front of me was so scared that he covered his mouth and looked at me in horror.
It was only then that I realized that I had lost control of myself. I unintentionally spoke out loud what I said to Omar.
I irritably took a deep breath. "Sorry, I wasn't talking to you."
I didn't want to explain further. But I remembered that Sylvia told me that I should communicate more with others to show my friendly side.
The elder shivered and put down his hand that was covering his mouth. "You..." "Don't be afraid. Continue what you were saying just now." I tried my best to be patient and comfort him in the gentlest tone possible.
However, I saw from the expression on his face that he got even more scared. His body shook more and more violently.
I swallowed and wanted to say something. But a sudden mania rushed inside my body, and I could no longer maintain my gentleness on the surface.
My face turned cold, and I realized that I couldn't control my emotions anymore. I had an inexplicable urge to destroy everything.
Omar also became more agitated inside my head. "Rufus, let me out! If you don't want to take the flowers back for me, I'll do it myself."
"Prince Rufus, your... Your eyes..." the elder stammered. He took a few steps back as if he saw something terrifying.
"Why? What's wrong with my eyes?" I asked coldly. I took two steps forward, and the bloodthirsty feeling suddenly surged up in my body. I looked at the werewolves around, and I saw that they were all frightened. They stepped back, stuttering with fear.
My mind was gradually getting out of control, and I felt like I was about to lose my sanity. I gently pulled the tie around my neck and showed them a terrifying smile. "Why are you so scared?"
No one dared to speak. But an elder pointed his shaking finger at the glass door beside me.
I slowly turned my head to look. Then I saw my lifeless face and bloodshot eyes clearly reflected in the bright glass. I was like a monster in human skin mixed into a noisy crowd.
