The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 319

Sylvia's POV:

Although we had managed to dig the upper part of Tom's body out of the mud, his bottom half was still trapped between boulders and collapsed trees.

With pursed lips, Rufus stood next to me and didn't say anything. Tugging at his sleeve anxiously, I whispered, "We can't just leave him like this. We need to find out what happened to Warren."

Rufus finally nodded. "Just stand there. I'll be the one to pull him out."

"Let me help you." Just as I rolled my sleeves up to help Rufus move the boulder that was trapping Tom's body, Rufus stopped me.

"No need. I can do this by myself."

Sure enough, Rufus rolled the huge stone away, his muscles tense from the effort. It didn't take long before Tom was freed.

Tom feebly tried to pull himself out of the mud, but he soon collapsed, wincing in pain. "I'm too weak..."

Tom looked like he was in excruciating pain. I couldn't help but want to help him up. But before I could make a move, Rufus had already sprung into action and pulled Tom out of the mud.

"Let's call for reinforcements. I'm sure a lot of people are in need of help here," I suggested grimly as Rufus set Tom down on a flat stone.

"But I need to check on Flora first. I'm worried about her. Why don't you take Tom and call for help?"

Rufus turned to look at me sternly. "No. I'm not leaving you alone."

"You two are not going anywhere."

A sing-song male voice interrupted our conversation. I immediately knew that it was Richard.
