The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 1179

Crystal's POV:

Rufus' imitation skills had been excellent, and our little encounter went through without a hitch.

I patted his shoulder and nodded at him in amazement. "Impressive. The Lycan King is truly talented. I never imagined you to have mastered voice imitation, of all things!"

His lips curled into a smile. "It's just a trick of the sound. I won't be able to fool anyone in close proximity."

"Still, very impressive." I pressed my lips together, feeling somewhat salty at Rufus' talents. The man was capable of anything! There seemed to be nothing he couldn't do, and even the most monumental tasks ended up being a walk in the park with him by my side.

Even now, if he hadn't offered his help, I would probably still searching aimlessly for my son, all caught up in a frenzy to think logically.

"Even if you weren't a king, I'm sure you would have made a successful businessman, or a scientist, even," I found myself muttering in a sullen tone. "You're so intelligent, after all. You learn almost anything in no time."

Rufus chuckled and patted my head. "All right, enough of that. Let's hurry to the meeting place."

"Right. And don't forget the red box." I popped the lid closed and lifted the box, surprised at how heavy it was. Why did Lee even need so many protective suits in the first place?

"Let me do it," Rufus said as he took the box from me and kicked the door open without breaking a sweat.

The she-wolf in the pink mask had specified the back door as part of the location, so we couldn't take the main entryway. We would either have to use the freight elevator or the emergency stairs.

At this point, there were no more performances, and all that filled the waiting rooms was an eerie silence.

For a while, we struggled to find the way to the back door. The building's emergency exits seemed to have all been converted into dressing rooms or storage areas, and there wasn't even a freight elevator in sight.

We ended up leaving through the front door. Fortunately, there weren't many people around, and Rufus and I were in costumes—practically the staffs uniform—so we didn't attract any attention.
