The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 1237

Crystal's POV:

Rufus' question made me nervous. "Why do you ask that? Should I recall something? Or are you hiding something from me?"

"No. I'm just worried about you." His expression changed instantly. He obviously didn't want to continue this topic.

As I observed his frustrated expression, happiness unfurled inside me. He was still the same man he was five years ago. Sometimes he was as innocent as a little boy behind closed doors. When he was with his mate, he became guileless, which made me feel bad for teasing him.

"Remember to come back to sleep tonight. We are mates, so we should share a bed." I giggled craftily and patted the empty side of the bed on purpose. "I'll warm the bed for you tonight."

Anyway, Rufus became an emotionless robot when he started working. He would stay up almost all night. By the time he returned, I would be fast asleep, so I didn't have to worry about giving myself away.

"You should pay more attention to your health. Don't push yourself so much. There will always be work to be done, but when you're exhausted, you can't do anything," I said. To further show my sincerity, I even patted his hand hypocritically. "Right now, you're young and feel that it's okay to stay up late. But if you fall ill and your illness is not completely cured, you will suffer in your old age."

Rufus laughed. "You're right. I'm going to listen to you."

I nodded. I was happy and was going to say something more, but Rufus spoke first.

"I'm going to turn in early tonight." He lifted the quilt and lay down beside me.

I didn't expect this reaction from Rufus. I was speechless, but couldn't stop him. After all, I was the one who had asked him to sleep early and pointed out that we should sleep together.

"What are you waiting for? Lie down and go to sleep." Rufus forced me to lie down.

I had no choice but to obey him.

He switched off the lights. His breath was so close that I felt utterly restless.
