Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 180

Rufus’ POV:

Carefully, I removed the beast trap from Sylvia’s hand and looked at her injury.

It was serious. I could almost see her bones and she was bleeding profusely.

“I’m fine. It doesn’t hurt…” Sylvia smiled in attempt to comfort me, but her pale face said otherwise.

I didn’t say anything. Instead, I just took out my handkerchief and wiped as much b***d off as possible. I was in a bad mood.

“Are you mad?” Sylvia tugged on my clothes with her other hand and frowned.

“No.” I lowered my head and licked her wound, the taste of her b***d filling my mouth.

Sylvia winced and tried to retract her hand as she stared at me. “Are you sure you’re not mad? You don’t look too happy either.”

I felt sorry for this silly girl. I wasn’t mad at her. I was angry at myself for not being able to protect her enough.

I couldn’t resist the urge to give her a gentle k**s. “Don’t worry about it.”

Sylvia blinked before returning my k**s passionately. A few moments later, she spat. “Ack. B***d.”

“That’s your own b***d!” I chuckled, tucking her hair behind her ears and fiddling with her earlobe between my fingers. Leaning closer, I rubbed her soft cheek against mind. My love for her burned like a wild horse running free and with no control. I wanted nothing more than to stuff her into my pocket so that I could keep her with me at all times.

“How did you know I’m here in the forbidden forest?” Sylvia asked, planting a k**s on my palm.

“I tried calling you many times, but there was no answer. I went to your school to check and we later found Flora in the equipment room.” I lowered my head and continued licking her wound.

For mates, licking each other’s wounds could speed up the healing process. In just a few minutes, Sylvia’s injury had already stopped bleeding because of me.

“Flora went to the equipment room?” Sylvia looked shocked. “Then, what about Warren?”

“He was also there. They were found together. The two of them looked fine. I’m guessing they’re both getting checked on in the hospital right now,” I replied.

“Okay, good.” Sylvia nodded in relief and proceeded to tell me what happened.

She couldn’t help but tremble when she said the part about her and Warren getting drugged. I could feel the fear that was still in her heart.

I tightened my embrace around her in pity. “What if you just quit school instead? I don’t want you to be in danger again. This experience is already too much. I just want you by my side all the time.”

“No.” Sylvia shook her head seriously. She then cupped my face and kissed the corner of my mouth. “Oh, Rufus. I can’t just quit out of fear. Whoever wants to hurt me will do everything they can, wherever I am. Besides, you are much too busy to try and protect me at all times.”

I sighed helplessly. She had a point, so I gave up persuading her. Still, I decided that it was necessary at this point to station some secret bodyguards around her.

While thinking of this, I suddenly felt Sylvia’s body get warmer. She was beginning to sweat.

“Sylvia, is everything okay?” I placed my palm over her forehead.

“The drug… It’s taking effect again.” Dazed, Sylvia adjusted herself and breathed deeply. “It’s so hot.”

I wanted to help relieve the drug’s effects, but we were not in the proper environment.

Just when I was about to bring her back, I heard the howls of a group of wild wolves from outside. Just from the sound, I could estimate that this group was even more than the group I had previously ran into.

I hesitantly looked over at Sylvia. Facing the group of wolves wouldn’t be so difficult if I were alone. But this time, I also had to worry about Sylvia.

Sylvia began to unconsciously pull at my clothes. I didn’t like seeing her this uncomfortable. I leaned down and whispered in her ear, “Is here okay for you?”
