Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 108

Rufus’ POV:

After attending several meetings the whole day, I leaned wearily on my chair and looked at the time on my watch. It was almost time for the ball.

“Where are my clothes?” I asked my dumb servant beside me coldly.

The dumb servant made a gesture and went out to check. I pulled my tie, feeling a little anxious. I hadn’t seen Sylvia for several days, and I didn’t know if she was already here.

As soon as I got changed, I rushed to the ball. When I arrived at the venue, I looked around but didn’t see the person I had been looking forward to seeing.

Maya should have picked Sylvia up by now and sent her here according to my instructions. And judging from Sylvia’s character, she wasn’t the type who would run around on her own.

I checked the time and took out my phone. It was only then that I saw a missed call from Maya. My phone prompted that it was already low battery. I frowned and dialed Sylvia’s number. But to my dismay, her phone was powered off.

I felt that something was wrong, so I called Maya back. However, she was not answering either. In the end, my phone ran out of battery and was powered off. I still didn’t see Sylvia or Maya.

How could it be that I couldn’t get in touch with both of them at the same time? It was too coincidental.

Restlessness began to rise in my heart again. The melodious music in the hall made me feel like I wanted to destroy everything there.

At this moment, my mother came in with a group of guards and maids in a high-profile manner.

“Mother…” I greeted her coldly with a slight nod.

With a benign smile on her face, she asked, “Why don’t you get inside yet?”

“I just have something to deal with. Mother, please go in first.” I didn’t say that I was waiting for Sylvia because I was afraid that my mother would be unhappy again.

“Today is your birthday, and this ball is for you. I think you can delay anything else. You can deal with it later.” My mother insisted that I would go in with her.

I was a little annoyed with her tough attitude towards me, but I didn’t say anything.

“Rufus, do you always have to set yourself against me?” My mother got irritated, understanding my silent refusal. “The ball is about to begin, and you have to make an opening speech. If you have anything else to do, just do it later. Otherwise, it will be disgraceful for the royal family to let everyone wait.”

Restlessness began to rise in my heart again. The melodious music in the hall made me feel like I wanted to destroy everything there.

Now thot she hod soid so, I couldn’t controdict her in public. Besides, I could chorge my phone in the holl too.

“Remember to invite o lody on the first donce ofter your opening speech,” my mother whispered in my eor.

I didn’t soy o word, ond my mind wos olreody drifting owoy. Without Sylvio, everything hod become boring. I just wonted to leove right now.

I took my mosk from the guord, sproyed the speciol perfume on my sleeves, ond whispered to the guord, “Go to Sylvio’s dormitory ond check on her.”

He then turned oround ond left.

I entered the holl ond found o ploce to chorge my phone. There were still two minutes before the boll. I looked oround ond sow the royol members ond oristocrots in beoutiful clothes oll smiling. Their joy wos in shorp controst to my low mood.

Sylvio hodn’t shown up yet. My worry overwhelmed the monic deep in my body. I unplugged my holf-chorged phone ond left the holl to look for her.

Just os I wos wolking down the stoirs, I sow o figure in the dress I hod corefully chosen oppeor ot the door.

It wos Sylvio. She wos finolly here.

I breothed o sigh of relief, ond my heort finolly colmed down.

Now that she had said so, I couldn’t contradict her in public. Besides, I could charge my phone in the hall too.

“Remember to invite a lady on the first dance after your opening speech,” my mother whispered in my ear.

I didn’t say a word, and my mind was already drifting away. Without Sylvia, everything had become boring. I just wanted to leave right now.

I took my mask from the guard, sprayed the special perfume on my sleeves, and whispered to the guard, “Go to Sylvia’s dormitory and check on her.”

He then turned around and left.

I entered the hall and found a place to charge my phone. There were still two minutes before the ball. I looked around and saw the royal members and aristocrats in beautiful clothes all smiling. Their joy was in sharp contrast to my low mood.

Sylvia hadn’t shown up yet. My worry overwhelmed the manic deep in my body. I unplugged my half-charged phone and left the hall to look for her.

Just as I was walking down the stairs, I saw a figure in the dress I had carefully chosen appear at the door.

It was Sylvia. She was finally here.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and my heart finally calmed down.
