The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 889

Laura's POV:

In the video, Sylvia sat aside, evidently lost in her thoughts. Needless to say, she must be thinking about Rufus. She had been Alpha for a while now, and able to manage the pack efficiently; however, she could not hide her thoughts on certain things. They were all clearly written on her face.

As expected, her ears perked up when I mentioned Rufus.

I was amused and my heart melted, so I told her something about Rufus.

The kids didn't understand what I meant and kept asking me what a lycan was and why I called him king.

It was difficult for me to answer. No one had ever asked me such a tricky question.

I was deep in thought when Rufus suddenly barged in.

Shocked and flabbergasted at the same time, my phone fell to the ground.

Rufus wanted to help me pick it up, but I got to it first.

Befuddled, he asked in furrowed brows, "What's wrong? You look flustered."

"Nothing. Why didn't you ask the guard to let me know before you came in?" With a deep breath, I was able to pull myself back together. I guessed that Rufus didn't hear or see anything.

"Well, I did. But the guard said that you didn't answer the door. I was worried, so I came in to check on you." Rufus changed the subject and asked, "Who were you video chatting with? I haven't seen you this happy in a long time."

He joined me on the couch and eyed me curiously.

I started to sweat profusely and stuffed the phone down the crevice of the couch. Then I pretended to be calm and prepared tea. "No one. It's just my friend."

"I think I heard a child's voice," said Rufus.
