Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 991 The Most Beautiful She-Wolf In The World
Rufus’ POV:
The child looked so pitiful. The bandage on his face was loosened, his cheek was swollen and red, and his bare arm was covered in pinch marks.
I was already in a bad mood, and when seeing this, I felt like k*il*ling someone.
There were five she-wolves surrounding the child. The one in the lead had very short hair and was bizarrely dressed. She was wearing a bunch of metal jewelry all over a frumpy black dress. She looked like a free-thinker, but in fact, she bullied the weak and feared the strong. Otherwise, why did she tremble violently as soon as she saw me?
I took the child’s hand and pulled him towards me, and then ordered the five she-wolves to kneel down and apologize to the child.
The she-wolves didn’t dare to refuse. They all fell to their knees and apologized to Arron profusely.
To my surprise, Arron didn’t accept their apology. He was such a little boy and his voice was very childish, but he was quite articulate.
“You should apologize to my mommy, not me. You hurt her favorite baby and you said bad things about her. You said that my mommy is ugly!”
My mood soured even more when I heard that. How dare these she-wolves say such a thing? They were courting death.
The she-wolves weren’t expecting Arron to call them out like that. They exchanged anxious glances, and no one was willing to take the initiative to apologize first.
“Crystal is the Alpha of the border pack. You can’t badmouth any Alpha behind their back. Or else according to the law of our empire, those who reproach an Alpha for no reason should be sentenced to exile.” I looked coldly at the she-wolves kneeling on the ground, and the anger in my heart kept brewing. I was furious at the thought of these she-wolves’ belittling of Crystal. After all, it was my father who selected Crystal to be the Alpha. How could they slander her so flippantly?
Only then did the she-wolves realize the gravity of the situation. They apologized to Arron profusely, “We’re sorry. We shouldn’t have said that about your mommy. Please forgive us.”
Arron stuck out his lower lip and looked at them stubbornly. “Do you really mean it?”
“Of course, we mean it. Your mommy is the most beautiful person in the world, and you’re her beautiful baby.” The she-wolves smiled at the child flatteringly. Although they kept apologizing, I knew that they didn’t really mean it. There was still undisguised pride and disgust in their eyes.
It was so obvious that even little Arron also noticed it, though he didn’t point it out directly. Not knowing how to deal with them, he hid behind me.
I stood in front of Arron protectively. I sneered at the she -wolves kneeling on the ground and said, “It’s too late to apologize now. Tell your fathers to come see me later.”
The she-wolves were so scared that they cried out and begged for mercy.
I was not in the mood to listen to their grating wails, so I waved my hand and the guards dragged the she- wolves away.
When they were gone, I squatted down, picked up the dirty scarf, patted the dust off it, and handed it to Arron. But Arron was so depressed that he kept his head lowered and didn’t say anything.
I looked at him for a while and then subconsciously reached out to touch Arron’s head gently. “Come. Let’s go inside and eat something yummy, okay?”
Hearing this, Arron cautiously stole a glance at me like a scared kitten.
My heart inexplicably softened. I never found children cute before, but ever since I met Beryl and Arron, I couldn’t help but want to take care of them.
“Or… Shall I take you to your mommy?” I suggested.
Arron raised his little face and looked at me seriously. “I have to say one thing.”
“What is it?” I felt puzzled. Was he going to say Crystal wasn’t his mother?
“Mommy is not ugly. She’s the most beautiful person in the world. She is much more beautiful than those people just now.”
The kitten turned into a tiger and spoke at me aggressively.
