Sylvia's POV:
After my classes, I headed straight back to my dorm room. Flora didn't arrive until much later.
When she did get back, she quickly downed three glasses of water in just one breath. Her hair was all messed up and she clearly looked tired out.
"What happened to you? Why are you panting so hard?" I sat up from my yoga mat, looking at her curiously.
"There was a pig on the loose at the school canteen. Blair saw me there and he told me to help catch the pig." Flora slipped her coat off and plopped down on a chair. "But I've also managed to acquire some information about that matter."
I quickly stood up and pulled out a chair for myself. "Tell me everything."
"Yesterday at noon, the lycan king and Prince Richard were out in the garden to talk about business. Apparently, Lucy happened to be there and meet them. Immediately, she and the prince fell in love with each other at first sight and discovered they were mates!" Clicking her tongue, Flora crossed her legs. "Can you believe that? Love at first sight only happen between attractive people!"
"Is it really?" I frowned, trying to comb through the situation. That garden was in the depths of the imperial palace. Students of the military school were not normally allowed to go there, unless they had a pass.
Flora shrugged in confusion. "So now, Lucy is Richard's fiancee. She officially dropped out of school and they're going to have the wedding very soon."
That was the end of Flora's story. We both fell in silence.
"But that man from last night..." My voice trailed off. Even though we couldn't quite see his face, I was certain just by hearing his voice and seeing his figure that he was definitely not Richard.
"Is Lucy really that kind of she-wolf? During the day, she met Prince Richard and fell in love with him. But that very night, she also had sex with another man in the woods," Flora thought out loud, resting her chin on her palms.
This also confused me, but it just worried me all the more that we had to bump into the affair. "Now I understand why they called for an emergency spot check last night."
