The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 788

Sylvia's POV:

Shawn swiftly sprang to his feet and seized the soldier's collar. "What did you say? Who is here?" he asked in disbelief.

"Prince Rufus..." the soldier replied, his voice trembling.

Startled, I instantly knew that Rufus was here to catch me.

Several days had passed since we left the capital city. Rufus being able to locate us was not unusual. After all, he had spies all over the empire.

Blair and I exchanged glances and immediately decided that we should run now.

"Why is Prince Rufus suddenly here?" He then glanced at Blair and me. Because Shawn had lost his teeth, he sounded funny as he spoke.

"He... He said we have to hand over his people, or he would raze the entire pack to the ground," informed the soldier.

"Fuck!" Shawn cursed, appearing perplexed as to how he should handle the unexpected circumstance.

I secretly gestured toward Blair. When Shawn and others weren't looking, we immediately turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

In a flash, Shawn ordered the soldiers to chase after us. "Get them! Capture them at all costs, or the pack would be doomed! Whoever catches them first will receive a generous reward."

In an instant, the guests who had been friendly to me earlier changed their expressions and rushed over to us.

"Damn it!" Blair cursed and stood in front of me to keep me safe. "Sylvia, you run first."

I felt uneasy as I saw the group of men approaching us from behind. "I can't. We are surrounded."
