The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 417

Sylvia's POV:

In the afternoon, I attended Leonard's class, as usual.

But my mind was still a mess. I had no idea how to tell Leonard that I was to leave on a mission.

My training suffered as a result.

Leonard, who could keenly sense that my mind was elsewhere, naturally got angry. He slammed me to the ground and muttered, "Get out of here if you don't want to train. Don't you dare waste my time."

All the air got knocked out of my lungs, so I was forced to come to my senses. I quickly stood up and bowed apologetically. "I'm sorry. There's just something that's been bothering me."

Leonard snorted and spat, "You should learn to control your emotions. If you can't hide what's in your heart, you'll be taken advantage of."

"Got it." I lowered my head humbly, wondering how I'd tell him the news.

Leonard didn't say anything more. He seemed to sense that I had something to say, so he stood quietly in front of me, waiting for me to speak.

Finally, I plucked up the courage to tell Leonard the truth: that I had to leave in a few days and consequently couldn't train with him.

But I didn't go into specifics regarding Blair. I just said that I needed to go on this mission to help a very important friend.

When I finished saying my piece, I gulped nervously. After all, I had previously begged Leonard to give me a chance and promised him that I'd do my best to prove myself to him.

Now I was breaking my promise.
