Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 1129 Saved By Rin
Crystal’s POV:
The python’s eyes flew open and it launched an attack in my daughter’s direction while I was midway through transforming into my wolf form.
It stuck its scarlet tongue out.
It looked as if it was preparing to swallow my daughter in the next second. I didn’t have time to stop the python.
Even if I did my best, I wouldn’t be able to get to my daughter in one second. Beryl was so terrified that all the color drained from her face.
She shut her eyes and sobbed bitterly.
Fortunately, at that moment, Rufus sprung forward. He positioned himself in front of her and struck the python’s head with his sharp wolf claws.
The python was not ready for this, and it sustained a huge gash in the middle of its head. Rufus didn’t give the python any time to react.
He attacked its eyes again. This time, the python responded in time and twisted its body violently, making the leaves on the branches rustle down.
The python released a shrill hissing sound, making everyone’s ears ring. Ignoring the pain in my ears, I quickly leaped onto the tree trunk and tried to catch Rufus, but the python noticed me and swung its thick tail at me.
I stepped on the branch and hastily retreated to avoid its attack. My back hit the trunk, and I could not seem to dodge the python’s tail. The python instantly captured me in the air.
Struggling hard, I turned back into my human form. I removed the dagger hidden in my sleeve and stabbed the python forcefully. It let out another shriek of pain and its tail squeezed more tightly around me, swinging crazily.
My head began spinning.
Pushing away the building nausea, I summoned my lycan power to fight against the python. The soldiers around us also began moving, surrounding the python in quick succession. Rufus turned back into his human form as well.
He ripped the rope off Beryl’s body and picked her up with one arm. Beryl was too scared to cry loudly. She wrapped her arms around Rufus ‘neck and called him Daddy.
To buy more time for Rufus to escape with our daughter, I once again plunged the dagger into the python’s body. It swung its tail and slammed me hard against the tree.
Then it focused on attacking Rufus.
Since Rufus was holding Beryl, he could only defend himself against the python. Beryl had never witnessed such a scenario, so she began crying again.
I was so agitated that I shouted to Rufus, “Why don’t you toss Beryl to me? I will catch her!”
With a quick glance at me, he nodded. I extended my arms and prepared myself.
The soldiers also positioned themselves around me in case things went awry.
Rufus gripped Beryl and was about to toss her to me. But at that moment, the python swung its tail fiercely again, hitting both Rufus and Beryl. The ground rumbled because of the python’s strike.
Warning bells went off in my gut, but it was too late. Beryl had already been knocked out of Rufus’ arms and flung into the distance.
Everyone acted instantly.
I turned into a wolf and rushed to catch her.
If such a little child fell from that great a height to the ground, she might die or at least become permanently disabled.
But it was too late. Beryl was too far from me. Even if I sprinted toward her at full speed, I still wouldn’t be able to reach her. I was on the verge of a breakdown and Yana was sobbing.
If something really happened to my daughter, I might lose my sanity.
A deep sense of despair overwhelmed me. Just then, a gray wolf leaped out of the trees. It sprung into the air and caught Beryl in time.
“Rin!” I exclaimed in surprise.
If such a little child fell from that great a height to the ground, she might die or at least become permanently disabled.
