The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 98

Warren's POV:

I couldn't bear to see Sylvia's pallid face. However, my mind instantly flitted to Alina. Thinking how upset she would be to see Sylvia at the ball, I gritted my teeth and decided to continue speaking. I had to make her see the reality and ruin all her hopes. That was the only way I could stop her from attending the ball.

"You must have heard about Lucy, right?" I asked.

Everyone knew that Lucy had become Prince Richard's mate. Moreover, Sylvia had a well-informed talkative friend, Flora. So I knew the news was no surprise to her.

However, she didn't say anything but just looked at me and nodded. Her eyes lost their glow and suddenly looked dull.

I gazed at the reeds by the river and sighed. Sylvia's sadness bothered me. "I got the news that Prince Richard is going to take Lucy to the ball and announce their wedding date in public. Lucy has a noble background, but you are just a slave."

Sylvia's jaw tightened when she heard that. Tears welled up in her melancholic eyes. I held my head with my hand and slumped down. Perhaps someday in the future Alina would be with another man, someone came from a noble family as well. The thought of me not being the reason for her happiness broke my heart.

I had thought only parting with Alina would hurt me. However, Sylvia's teary eyes made me upset even more. I was depressed. I had a lot to say but didn't know where to begin.

I stood up awkwardly and pretended to be cold. "Anyway, you better not attend the ball. Not only Lucy, but Alina will also be there. She is the daughter of Alpha Leonard, who has noble lycan bloodline. They are powerful people. Only her status and wealth are comparable with Lucy's. Moreover, everyone loves Alina."

I cleared my throat and added, "I don't want her to be unhappy because of you."
