The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 1073

Crystal's POV:

When the soldiers informed me that someone had taken credit without an explanation, I believed it was the vampires' ploy.

I was enraged. I hadn't expected these vampires to be so persistent!

After hurriedly bidding the soldiers goodbye, I entered the lycan king's palace and directly marched to Rufus' room. I was worried that the vampires' conspiracy would succeed again.

But when I reached the door, I hesitated. I didn't know if I was in a position to inquire about Rufus. I stood by the door for a while, scratching my ears and cheeks, but couldn't come up with a suitable excuse. I carefully pushed the door and opened it slightly so I could survey the situation inside.

I convinced myself that if things weren't as serious as I believed them to be, then I was better off leaving.

The crack slowly widened. I was instantly greeted with the sight of a beautiful coy she-wolf standing beside Rufus' bed. She was watching him shyly. She had a sweet and charming expression on her face, looking as if she wanted to wrap her body around him.

Rufus was lying on the bed. The doctor who was changing his dressing was sweating profusely as he put away a long piece of gauze that was stained with blood.

The she-wolf gently mopped away the cold sweat that drenched Rufus' forehead with her handkerchief. Her eyes were filled with pity. Although Rufus maintained a stoic expression, he didn't refuse the she-wolf's kindness.

My blood began boiling when I saw this cozy scene. Damn it! How could he not deny her help? Why didn't he refuse her? Wasn't he disinterested in women? The she-wolf stood in such close proximity to him, but he didn't push her away.

I was so furious that I almost couldn't restrain myself from rushing in and slapping the woman's hand away.

But my rational mind interrupted me, telling me that I couldn't stop Rufus from finding new happiness.

My fingers curled into fists as the soldier's words ran on a loop in my mind. "It's Miss Adela. She saved the king."
