Rufus' POV:
I quietly waited by the door for Sylvia to come out. No one was around since I had sent all the guards away.
I absent-mindedly fidgeted with the ring on my finger as I fretted that Sylvia would lose control of her emotions.
Surprisingly, I could sense that the atmosphere in the room was constantly peaceful. I had a nagging feeling that something was wrong.
I stood up and went closer to the door, wondering if I should go in and check what was happening. However, I recalled that Sylvia had specifically requested some alone time.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room shifted. An ominous aura filled it.
A fierce gust of wind blew by, and I could hear the shrill cries of crows.
My heart stuttered. I looked out the window and saw that the sky had turned dark red. A flock of crows charged in.
The exact same scene had taken place just as when Sylvia had lost control in the forbidden forest.
Damn it! My heart sank. I hastily pushed the door open and spotted a woman in a black cloak. According to Sylvia's description, she was definitely Noreen!
She was gripping Sylvia's hand, looking as if she wanted to do something sinister to her!
Without a second thought, I transformed into a wolf and attacked her.
Noreen quickly dodged me. She gave one backward glance and directly escaped from the window.
I didn't have the time to chase after her, so I quickly turned back into my human form and went to check on Sylvia.
Her eyes were completely black and her body was as cold as ice.
"Sylvia, wake up! It's Rufus! Can you hear me?" I was overcome with agitation. I took my coat off, wanting to wrap it around her to keep her warm.
But Sylvia struggled against me. It felt like she didn't recognize me anymore. She grabbed my hand and bit it hard.
Groaning in pain, I didn't pull my hand away, but repeatedly called out to her.
