Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 545

Sylvia’s POV:

The huge wall took three days to finally come down. From that moment on, there would be no more distinction between the inside and outside of the wall.

Soon, the army also began to engage in the reconstruction work.

Together, Flora and Warren were assigned to clear the debris of the wall.

Meanwhile, Rufus and I decided to visit and comfort the bereaved families of those who were tragically killed in the riot.

Many of the dilapidated buildings outside the wall had also been demolished in order to be rebuilt. Because of this, the amount of labor and resources needed was huge.

Everyone who was able was enlisted to contribute to the complicated work.

The homeless werewolves that used to live in the sewers and on the streets were taken to a temporary shelter. Once the new buildings were constructed, they would be allocated housing.

Food and accommodation were the easier problems to solve. The most pressing one was health.

It didn’t come as much of a surprise, but the werewolves from outside the wall were suffering from long-term malnourishment along with other diseases.

Even without the threat of vampire attacks, these werewolves wouldn’t have lived much longer anyway.

It was a good thing that Rufus thought of importing a big group of doctors and nurses from the imperial capital and stationing them in the pack’s largest hospital.

One day, Rufus and I were doing work as usual outside the wall. We normally didn’t return until the evening.

When we passed by the orphanage, I suddenly remembered Alva and asked to go and take a look.

While most of the children were able to reunite with their family, this didn’t mean that the orphanage was now empty. Unfortunately, there were still many children who had permanently lost their families in the riot. They still needed to be taken care of. At the same time, many kind-hearted adults, who had lost their own children, came to take care of those left behind as well.

The once-closed gate of the orphanage was now wide open. The dense branches that used to hide it from the world were trimmed so that passers-by could see a little bit inside.

Poking out of the wall, roses with raindrops on their petals swayed in the wind. I picked one and put it in the chest pocket of Rufus’ suit, winking at him playfully. “A handsome flower for a handsome man.”

Rufus swiftly pulled me into his arms and tilted the umbrella towards me so that raindrops wouldn’t fall on me. “Come here. You’ve got yourself wet.”

I leaned against his shoulder, closing my eyes and sighing. “I feel good, Rufus. Things are finally starting to settle.”

Rufus lowered his head to k**s my forehead. “I know. When we get back to the imperial capital, I promise you a long and well-deserved holiday.”

I wrinkled my nose disapprovingly. “No, thanks. I don’t want such a special treatment.”

Rufus chuckled while stroking my hair as we continued to walk. “Well, just don’t hesitate to tell me anytime when you are tired.”

“Oh, I’ll tell you for sure. Only a silly girl wouldn’t use her boyfriend for perks.” I clutched his arm closer and closed my eyes again.

“Well, since you are acknowledging that I am your boyfriend, don’t call me Rufus anymore. Call me darling,” Rufus said affectionately.

“I…”

I choked on my words, my face turning bright red. The past days, he had been so insistent on being called darling.

Recently, it seemed that he had also learned a new trick. He used to be such a serious man, but now he liked to act like a spoiled child around me. Sometimes, he would deliberately show me his ears just so I could touch them.

Honestly, I couldn’t resist such a temptation either.

I peeked up at him, contemplating whether or not I would grant his wish today.

“Ah, forget it. I’ll ask again when we get back.” Fortunately, Rufus let me go for now. He then leaned down and whispered in my ear, “But when we get back, I’m going to make you call me darling one hundred times.”

Shivers crept down my back and I sheepishly ran off into the orphanage without looking back.

“Let’s just talk about it when we return. First, we need to replace her.”

I needed to ask Flora for help tonight. I couldn’t allow Rufus to take me away with all kinds of excuses again.
