Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 472

Sylvia’s POV:

Felix’s words seemed absurd. I couldn’t understand what he meant. ‘Since when did werewolves have to submit to vampires?’

“Is your sister Alva? Isn’t she safe inside the wall?”

Felix’s eyes widened in shock. “How did you know Alva? Did you go to see her?”

“Yes, I accidentally met your sister when I walked past the orphanage. She is a lovely girl,” I said honestly.

Felix stared at me vigilantly. “What’s your purpose? Why are you here?”

“My friends and I simply want to help you. But you have to tell me the truth first so that we’ll have an idea about where to begin.” I wanted Felix to trust me. If he was still reluctant to let his guard down, I would have to think of other ways.

After a moment’s silence, he finally compromised. He pulled me to a safe place and said, “What do you want to know? Hurry up. Although no one is around now, we can only talk for a while. Vampires will come soon.”

“I want to know what kind of deal Geoffrey has made with the vampires.”

At the mention of Geoffrey, hatred flashed across Felix’s face. “A long time ago, Geoffrey and the vampires had reached a mutual nonaggression pact. The price was that the werewolves outside the wall, like me, would have to participate in the monthly hunting game and serve as prey to vampires.”

He snorted and continued, “Werewolves inside the wall live a happy life at the cost of our lives. They lead a peaceful, wealthy life with abundant resources. However, the safe haven they were talking about is built on our bones.”

His answer enraged me. “That filthy bastard!”

“Don’t be too surprised.” Felix scoffed. “Our lives mean nothing to them. Beasts in human skin are the real monsters. Although it’s an unfair deal, the werewolves inside the wall look up to Geoffrey and regard him as a respectful leader.”

“That’s ridiculous!” I couldn’t believe such a pact was concealed from everyone.

However, Felix smiled wryly, as if he was tired of being exploited time and again. “Ridiculous? I’m used to it.”

“But haven’t werewolves and vampires already reached a peace agreement?” I was still confused. ‘Wasn’t Geoffrey afraid of letting the vampires in? He was only inviting trouble.’

“The peace agreement is just a stunt to maintain the peace on the surface. It’s far away from the imperial capital city. The lycan king can’t interfere anyway. Those so-called royal members were probably busy fighting for the throne, or having fun and consolidating their power now. They have no time to care about us,” Felix said flatly.

“How could they not care? Geoffrey must have deliberately concealed the situation, so the royal family wouldn’t find out about it,” I hurriedly explained.

“Just because one or two of them are corrupt and greedy, you can’t generalize the entire royal family. At least Rufus is not like that.”

“So what? How do you know so much about the royal family?” Felix snorted with disdain. “Besides, how could you be sure that the lycan king hasn’t acquiesced? Maybe our sacrifice was written in the peace agreement in the first place.”
