Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 617

Sylvia’s POV:

Maya and I took a walk in the garden.

Unexpectedly, Maya brought desserts and scented tea and served them on the table. “These are all your favorite. When I found out that you and Prince Rufus were coming back this morning, I immediately told the chef to prepare them.”

I eagerly picked up a spoonful of matcha cake and put it into my mouth. It still tasted the same as I remembered.

“It’s delicious!” I smiled and sighed contentedly. I hadn’t really felt relaxed until I got here.

Maya poured me a cup of tea and said, “While you were away, a lot of things happened. Prince Richard was released from prison, and Alina returned to her pack.”

“What? Alina went back to her pack? So soon?” I was a little taken aback. I was under the impression that Alina would stay in the imperial palace. Now, it seemed that even Queen Laura had given up on her and let her go.

“She left not long after you. It was a good thing. The palace became a lot more peaceful with her gone.” Maya couldn’t help but pout.

I smiled and shook my head wryly. “The palace is a complicated place. I doubt it’ll be easy to keep the peace.”

Especially now that Richard had been released from prison. He could’ve been plotting something as we spoke.

“You’re right,” Maya sighed. She picked up a pair of gardening sheers to prune the plants. “Lucy’s belly is huge now. The lycan king took her away to protect her. No one is allowed to get close to her, not even Prince Richard.”

I listened to Maya’s updates quietly. Because Ethan attached so much importance to the royal bloodline, it was no surprise that he was going to such lengths to protect the baby in Lucy’s belly.

It seemed that the relationship between Ethan and Richard was not as harmonious as it seemed. At the very least, Ethan had his guard up against Richard.

Perhaps this was a good thing after all. At least Richard would have to behave himself, more or less.

Previously, Rufus and I had talked about the baby in Lucy’s belly. I doubted the baby’s father was Richard.

If it really was Richard’s, then logically, the child would’ve been Richard’s trump card and he wouldn’t have tried to have it and its mother killed mercilessly. But he had acted as if he was in a hurry to erase them completely from his life.

Speaking of having a baby, I thought about the potted plant again. If Blair could wake up, it would mean that the potted plant really could break Noreen’s curse. Then her curse on Rufus would also be broken!

If so, Rufus and I would also be able to have our own children.

I couldn’t help but wonder what our future child would look like. If it ended up anything like Rufus, the child would become a seemingly cold but kind-hearted person. I found myself hoping that the child would look like Rufus, too. After all, he was known as the most handsome man in the country.

But I couldn’t get my hopes up yet. We avoided the risk of word getting out that his curse could possibly be broken and even kept it a secret from Ethan. Anyway, we could tell him after the problem was fixed.

Although Ethan was evidently partial to Richard, he was still a father. If he knew that the curse on Rufus could be broken, he would be ecstatic.

“By the way, have you gone back to your dormitory yet?” Maya suddenly asked.

“Not yet. Why? What’s wrong?” I looked up at her curiously. When we got back, Rufus and I went straight to the hospital and then went back to the palace. I didn’t have the time yet to visit the army.

“Well, I just thought you had gone back to your dormitory already. A guest has been waiting for you there,” Maya said with a mysterious smile.

I frowned slightly. “Who?”

Who else would wait for me in there? Since Leonard had returned to his pack, I doubted it was him.

But I didn’t have many friends in town. So who else could it be?
