Sylvia's POV:
It began to drizzle, and the smell of blood permeated the piercing wind.
I had no idea whose blood it was, but it was so thick that I almost felt sick. Rufus and Blair were still fighting. No matter how I tried to persuade them, neither listened to me.
Wanting to stop them, I stamped my foot in agitation, but the feeling of nausea overcame me, and I was forced to puke.
It was only at this moment that they finally stopped fighting. Rufus knocked Blair to the ground. I didn't know whether he was alive or dead. But from the looks of it, he had no strength to fight back.
Meanwhile, Rufus was completely alright except for the bruises on his face. His suit didn't even wrinkle a bit.
I covered my mouth, trying to suppress the retch in my throat. Then I walked over to check Blair's condition. But before I could even reach him, Rufus prepared to attack him again.
Furious, I stood in front of Rufus, blocking his way, and yelled, "Do you want to kill him?! Blair is your best friend!"
Rufus loosened his tie aggressively and snarled, "Friend? Will a true friend lust after my mate?"
I licked my dry lips and explained slowly, "Blair isn't in his right mind. He only did this because he was manipulated by Noreen's blood. It's all Noreen's fault. Blair didn't mean to do that. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to overthink and grow apart from one another." "What about you? Are you sick too?" Rufus asked in a low voice. His eyes were brightly illuminated by the moonlight as if they had been dropped into the entire river of stars.
I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Rufus, listen to me. It's complicated. I don't know how to explain it right now."
In the middle of our bickering, Rufus suddenly pulled out the box that housed our wedding ring and said, "You took a lot of things with you, but only left this behind."
Tears welled up in my eyes while a lump was stuck in my throat. Looking at the ring box in his hand, I felt as if a force was crushing my heart. I couldn't breathe.
