Rufus’ POV:
Early this morning, I received news that Crystal took Warren's permit and managed to leave the palace last night.
Expressionless, I straightened out my tie. While listening to the report on the phone, my mood became more and more gloomy. The arrogant she-wolf from the border pack really didn't take me seriously at all.
"After leaving the palace, Alpha Crystal acted very strangely. She seemed to be looking for someone and checked every bus station in the city. Then she went to the suburb. In the end, she went to the hospital just after dawn. Because Alpha Crystal was quite sharp, our people didn't dare to get too close to her in case she noticed we were following her. We don't know who or what she was looking for."
Hearing this, I frowned even more tightly, and the uneasiness in my heart just kept growing. My instinct about her was right; there really was something wrong with that she-wolf. It had only been a few hours since she arrived at the imperial palace, yet she was so impatient to get out that she didn't even bother to put on niceties. The more I thought about it, the angrier I felt. There were not many people who could easily provoke my emotions now, but that she-wolf took the cake.
I had to think about how to punish her. I couldn't let her continue to be so arrogant, or else she would never take me seriously.
"Your Majesty, do you still want us to keep an eye on her?" my subordinate asked cautiously.
"No. I'll go talk to her myself," I replied coldly. Without waiting for a response, I hung up the phone.
As soon as I left my quarters to go downstairs, I saw the doctor running towards me from the other end of the corridor.
"Your Majesty! The little girl is awake!"
"Then take good care of her," I said coldly and then went downstairs.
By the time I made it to the car, the driver was already waiting for me.
Feeling somewhat irritable, I closed my eyes in an effort to calm down. However, the masked she-wolf would appear in my mind, and so would the little girl's sleeping face. I couldn't think straight. What the hell!
