Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 369
Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Sylviaâs POV:
Alina, who had been acting like a spoiled brat just now, suddenly fell quiet and lowered her head.
âIâm talking to you, Alina.â Leonard spoke through gritted teeth. He seemed to be unable to swallow his anger.
I almost couldnât help but snicker. After all, they both had seen Alina yanking at my hair. It was completely outside a noble ladyâs character to wrestle with someone unscrupulously, regardless of her opponentâs status.
But on second thought, I realized that I was the one who had the upper hand just now, even though Alina managed to pull my hair in the end.
Thinking about this scandalous matter, I couldnât help but feel a little anxious. Although Leonard was Alinaâs father, he was once the strongest werewolf of all and was known as the legendary god of war.
I thought very highly of him and even worshiped him.
I was racking my brains, trying to think of a way to greet him since this was the first time we had formally met.
Alina, who was standing quietly, finally opened her mouth. âFather, I⦠I didnâtâ¦â
âYou didnât what exactly?â Leonard growled, his eyes darting between me and Alina.
I felt my heart leap to my throat. Oh, my God! Did I just give him a bad first impression?
I wanted to say something, but Alina spoke first.
âIt was all her fault!â she suddenly shouted.
I raised my eyebrows and turned to look at her in disbelief.
Alina stole a glance at me and blushed from being flustered. âPrince Rufus already made his relationship with her public, yet she still came here to pester Warren! And she tried to break in by force just now. My four bodyguards and I couldnât stop her.â
I shrugged helplessly, âI already told you that Iâm not here to âpesterâ Warren. Weâre just friends, Plusââ
I paused mid-sentence. I was going to say that Warren already had a girlfriend, but I realized in time that they didnât seem to know about his new relationship yet.
So Iâd better let Warren tell them himself.
âPlus what, hmm?â Alina sneered, as though she had caught me in a lie. âYou canât defend yourself, can you? The guiltâs written all over your face.â
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and just ignored her.
Leonard frowned and squinted at me for a while before asking, âYouâre that slave, right? Whatâs your name again?â
A bit embarrassed, Leonard turned to look at Owen for help.
I couldnât help but frown unhappily. His first sentence to me made my high impression of him decline fast.
I didnât say anything, waiting for him to remember my name himself.
Owen, who was standing next to Leonard, cleared his throat and whispered helpfully, âSylvia Todd. And sheâs no longer a slave.â
Leonard turned to look at me again. âItâs Sylvia Todd, right?â
âYes,â I still replied to him out of sheer politeness, but if I had it my way, Iâd have walked away from this conversation the second he called me a slave.
Although Leonard didnât explicitly say so, his attitude obviously told me that he didnât like me one bit.
I figured that Ethanâs arrangement mustâve made things difficult for him.
I suddenly closed my eyes, regretting agreeing to let Leonard train me.
Wasnât I just begging to be insulted?
âShouldnât you be in the army already?â Leonard asked again, narrowing his eyes at me.
âMy entry into the army was delayed a day because I have something important to deal with first.â I lowered my head and couldnât look him in the eye.
Leonard snorted and asked in a dissatisfied tone, âIs coming here your so-called âsomething importantâ?â
âYes, Father! Actually, Sylviaâs been bothering me here for a long time already. Sheâd better go to the army,â Alina sneered.
I took a deep breath to calm down. Looking at Leonard indignantly, I said word for word, âIâm not here for Warren.â
âThen donât try to look for excuses. Whatâs so important that you needed to delay entering the army? Do you think that just because you topped the selection competition you can act arrogantly now? Youâre so ignorant. I wonder what the hell Ethan was thinking,â Leonard snorted, his tone dripping with disappointment. âIt seems that this yearâs new recruits are just so-so. You all think youâve made such a huge contribution that you let it get to your head.â
