Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 822

Sylvia’s POV:

After leaving the dungeon, I set out towards the pack’s castle. Rufus said he would wait for me there.

Countless rose manors surrounded the castle, all built by Leonard when he was still alive. Like my mother, he was fond of roses.

When Leonard didn’t have to work, he often retreated to the manors. When we visited the pack last time, he specially arranged for me and Rufus to live in a white rose manor, next to the manor he usually lived in. Back then, he would come to visit us all the time.

Thinking of these bittersweet memories, I felt even more depressed. If Leonard was still here, he might’ve been sipping tea or walking the dog in the manor now.

When I passed by the manor Leonard had lived in before, I happened to see a group of maids sitting a stone table. I didn’t know what they were up to, nor did I care, so I was about to walk past them.

However, I heard them say Flora’s name.

The maids were talking about Flora.

It was a taboo for servants to talk about their bosses, especially behind their back. But this group of she-wolves didn’t seem to care, and their words were very mean.

“She’s just an ordinary Omega. How dare she be so willful? She has become so arrogant ever since she got pregnant.” The one speaking was a she-wolf with red hair. She was the most beautiful one among the maids. Judging from the way the other maids tried to flatter her, I reasoned that she must’ve been the leader of this small group.

“You won’t believe what a handful she is! Sometimes she has morning sickness and refuses the food we prepared for her. And then she just asked Warren to buy her the cheese pancakes from some remote cafe. This is insane!”

“She’s obviously using her pregnancy as an excuse to gain some favor. She isn’t pretty, nor does she have a noble status. If I were a guy, I would definitely not spoil her!”

The maids giggled maliciously as they gossiped, their contempt for Flora clear as day.

I was so angry that I rushed over without thinking and slapped the most vicious one of the bunch—the red-haired she-wolf.

She didn’t realize what was going on and simply curse me while struggling.

On the contrary, the other maids recognized me instantly and lowered their heads in fear, not daring to make a sound.

The red haired she-wolf was not convinced. “What the hell did you do that for?”

“You were slandering your master just now, am I right?” I grabbed her hair and yanked it back violently. “You think Flora doesn’t deserve Warren? What, you think you do perhaps? Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror and see what kind of person you are first? You’re a coward who can only gossip behind people’s backs.”

The red haired she-wolf was forced to kneel down and look up at me. Tears started to roll down her cheeks from the pain, but she refused to give up. “She isn’t married to Warren yet! She is not my master!”

“Well, since that’s how you want to play this game, I’ll deal with you according to the pack’s rules. Remind me. How am I supposed to punish someone for talking ill of their master?” Then my eyes swept towards the other frightened maids deliberately.

“Well, since that’s how you want to play this game, I’ll deal with you according to the pack’s rules. Remind me. How am I supposed to punish someone for talking ill of their master?” Then my eyes swept towards the other frightened maids deliberately.

The maids answered in a trembling voice in unison. “They will be sentenced with the brand penalty.”

The brand penalty meant that a spoke of hot metal would be pressed onto one’s face, branding them. With such a mark, no one would dare to hire the person, and they could only do the lowest level of work.

I nodded with satisfaction. “Okay. Take her away and punish her with the brand penalty.”

The red haired she-wolf finally felt scared. Eyes wide, she began to shout, “You have no right to punish me. You’re only Prince Rufus’ mate, not his wife, nor are you a member of our pack. You have no right to do something like that!”

“Then what about me?”

Owen’s voice suddenly sounded. He trotted over from the other end of the bridge. I didn’t know whether he had heard what went down or not, but he looked furious.

The red haired she-wolf fell to her knees immediately upon seeing Owen, trembling all over. “I… I was wrong!”
