Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 198
Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Richardâs POV:
Grabbing Lucyâs wrist, I left and dragged her back to the palace. I was so angry that I almost wanted to kill her then and there.
âLet go of me! Youâre hurting me!â Lucy broke away from my grip with a cold and distant look in her eyes.
I laughed in an angry manner. âLet go of you? So you can go back to your lover? Wow, Lucy, you really are something!â
Even though Kyle tried his best to explain, only a fool would believe that lame excuse he had come up with.
Worse, I caught a glimpse of the guilty look in Lucyâs eyes. She even looked worried when Rufus almost strangled Kyle to death.
If I hadnât quickly grabbed onto her wrist and dragged her away, this bitch would have undoubtedly rushed over to that adulterer. This was the first time I agreed with what Rufus was wanting to do and hoped he went through with it.
But Lucy ignored me and stomped off in the other direction with her high heels.
âLucy! Stop right there!â I roared. âIf you take just one more step away, I will never allow you to leave the palace again. Iâm going to put you in prison and let you rot there until you die!â
Lucy paused, turned her head, and looked at me. She then smiled scornfully and continued to walk forward.
âGood,â she said. My anger was bubbling up inside of me. I tried taking deep breaths to calm myself down, but I could no longer hold back.
As I watched Lucy get farther and farther away, I couldnât help but punch the stone pillar next to me. âGuards, bring her back to me. Donât let her get out!â
At this time, one of the guards from the school rushed over to me with panic on his face. âPrince Richard, weâve got bad news. Our men had failed to guard the forbidden forest. Now a large group of wild wolves have gotten out and invaded the school!â
âWhat? Why would they run out all of a sudden?â Shocked, I immediately followed the guard to the school. âAre there any casualties?â
âNo, itâs quite strange actually. The wild wolves just gathered and sniffed around the school. They didnât attack. Instead, they seemed to be looking for something.â Panic was replaced with confusion on the guardâs face. âFor now, the schoolâs been blocked off. The students are required to stay only in their dormitories and are not allowed to come out without permission.â
The schoolâs gate came into view. The square had been completely occupied by wolves. Many guards were holding up their shields, refusing the wolves from taking another step.
It was a large group of wild wolves that had entered the school premises. This had never happened before.
âWhy did they suddenly come out of the forbidden forest?â I was little anxious. If I wouldnât be able to handle this situation well, I would definitely be the one to blame.
âPrince Richard, you must make a decision as soon as possible. Iâm afraid the wolves will soon break into the dormitories if we delay action any longer.â The chief guard, Johnson, came up to me.
For a few moments, I kept silent and thought of what to do. I needed to come up with a way to get rid of the wild wolves. We would deal with any other losses later on.
âThe cannonballs,â I said in a low voice. âGuns alone will not be enough. Using cannonballs will be much more efficient and powerful.â
âNo! We canât use the cannonballs.â Rufus came running in from the outside, opposing my suggestion.
I couldnât help but laugh out loud. It was as if Rufus made it his lifeâs purpose to oppose me everywhere. No matter what I wanted to do, he would always appear out of nowhere and interfere. I was the one in charge of this school, but here he was, trying to counter me.
âFine. If you have a better idea, then you deal with these wild wolves.â I scoffed and ordered the guards of the school to stop whatever they were doing.
Rufus was alone. Iâd like to see his futile attempt to defeat these wolves on his own.
With a mocking smile on my face, I cocked my head to the wolves, gesturing him to go ahead.
Rufus stared at me with his usual expressionless eyes. He then walked out of the safe area and towards the wild wolves.
I crossed my arms and watched him calmly, hoping that he would never make it back to me.
But to my surprise, the moment Rufus approached the group of wild wolves, they all stopped what they were doing and lay down on the ground. It was as if they were in awe of Rufus.
What the hell? Were they on the same side?
All the guards focused their attention on Rufus, their eyes full of admiration.
Now I was just annoyed.
