Richard's POV:
Today was the night of the full moon. I had been watching TV in my room since early in the morning while waiting for the webcast to start.
While I waited, a medium-rare steak and salad had been sent to me from the kitchen. But since they didn't bring me wine to match the steak, I was dissatisfied. The red wine was then sent to me upon request.
I had a hunch that today would be a delightful day.
I was in a good mood, so I composed a piece of piano music and named it "Temptation of Wolf." Then, I uploaded it to my social media account.
But not long after, I noticed people's comments. They were all criticizing me. Someone stated that my music style was too weird. Another one scolded me for being stupid trying to compose.
I shook my leg as I put one in front of the other. I didn't care what they said. I didn't use my formal account and they probably didn't know who I really was anyway.
Those werewolves had no taste in music. They were ignorant. My ability to compose such music was acknowledged by the chief musician of the empire. I actually had planned to be a composer back then, but I didn't expect that Rufus would give me the throne and let me inherit it. That made me really annoyed.
When I finished drinking more than half of the bottle of wine, I leaned against the sofa and smiled.
Last week, when I found out that the key to get rid of the curse on Rufus was a potted plant, I called one of my confidants I had planted in the army a long time ago. She was not only gorgeous but capable at the same time.
In order to destroy Rufus' hopes, I had to do anything and everything.
It wasn't long until my plan succeeded. I heard they had a huge fight. Sylvia had a breakdown while Rufus kept yelling at her.
They vowed that they would love each other until death did them part, but it turned out that their love wasn't that strong to begin with.
Little did they know, love was the most unreliable thing in the world. Getting power over something was much better than stealing someone's heart.
Rufus had planned on suppressing the news, but I deliberately told our father and the queen what had happened.
As expected, their harmony came to an end. Laura ended up hating Sylvia again.
