The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 782

Shawn's POV:

Sylvia's expression darkened when she saw the book. I assumed she was upset after seeing her late mother's belongings. So when she drove me away, I went out obediently.

The masked werewolf was also kicked out with me. He appeared rather tall, and his muscles were twice bigger than mine. I looked at my arms and then at his and secretly decided on working out again starting tonight.

While silently waiting for Sylvia to come out, the masked werewolf leaned against the wall in silence.

Since I was bored, I struck up a conversation with him. "Did Prince Rufus know that Sylvia came back here?"

In the past, Prince Rufus and Sylvia always stuck to each other. They were glued together wherever they went. It was really strange that he didn't come with her this time.

The masked werewolf looked at me with a straight face. "What do you think? It didn't matter whether he knew it or not. Prince Rufus can't stop Sylvia from doing what she wants, and he doesn't have the time to do so. As a prince, he has a lot of duties to fulfill every single day. He can't always spare time to look after his mate. Sylvia ought to follow her own path. Relying on her mate all the time is not a wise choice."

I thought the masked man would be somewhat aloof, but I didn't expect him to talk to me at such length. Although he didn't say anything meaningful, I could tell from his words that there must be a problem between Rufus Prince and Sylvia.

And it seemed to be serious. Perhaps the two of them would call it quits.

I was even more curious now. "Doesn't Prince Rufus love Sylvia deeply? Why is he allowing Sylvia to choose her own path?"

The masked werewolf chuckled. "How long do you think love can last? Especially between those in high positions who see all kinds of people every day."

So far, I could almost confirm that Prince Rufus had abandoned Sylvia.

I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart. Sure enough, Sylvia lacked the intellect to accomplish much, let alone rule as queen. Even though her mother's unjust case had been corrected, it was still useless. It still couldn't change the fact that she was not from a noble background. Besides, she had been a slave since she was young. How could she deserve Prince Rufus, the noblest and most honorable werewolf in the empire?

Even if she managed to win Prince Rufus' heart, it would last long. A lot of noble women were lining up for Prince Rufus. How could he remain faithful to Sylvia, a mere nobody?

Since Mateo's execution, the Black Moon Pack had been short-handed, and more and more residents moved to other packs.

The pack's reputation was already damaged. Countless people began to treat my pack members with prejudice, thinking we were all cowards who colluded with evil. All because Mateo had taken the blame for slaughtering the empire's soldiers.

The neighboring packs would occasionally provoke us. They assaulted us all at once, making our already dire situation even worse. We were outnumbered and unable to fight back, causing these packs to go further.

Many of the former elders had also left to join other packs, so the Black Moon Pack would be swallowed up sooner or later.

For the rest of the ordinary pack members, it might not be a significant concern. But as the Alpha, I would definitely not have a good ending! Maybe I would die without a burial place. I had no one to rely on now, so I had to keep Sylvia by my side this time!
