Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince By Dark Knight
Chapter 225 Pretend To Be A Couple
Warren’s POV:
As soon as the others left, Flora immediately breathed a sigh of relief. “Whew! That was close. Sylvia almost found out the truth.”
I didn’t understand what Flora was saying. She seemed very disturbed. She looked around, took my hand, and hinted at me to leave. It was actually the first time that a she-wolf held my hand. I felt a little strange, but I didn’t hate it. My heartbeat even went abnormally fast.
Her hand was so small and soft. It was like the marshmallows I ate when I was a child. When I moved my fingers to also grip Flora’s hand, she had already let go of me. I regretfully withdrew my hand and rubbed my fingertips. It seemed that her warmth was still there.
The sunlight was blocked by the trees, and a flock of white pigeons flew over my head. I was in a trance for a while. And when I came back to my senses, I realized Flora had already pulled me to a secluded place.
I looked at her helplessly, feeling a little funny. Although I knew that our relationship would be made public sooner or later, I didn’t expect that it would be in this way. When I thought of the gossip I had to face in the future, my head suddenly ached.
But this was the only way to protect Sylvia for the time being. And since it was all my fault, I had to take the responsibility, so it should be fine.
I sighed and gently rubbed Flora’s fluffy head. “Next time, before you do anything, at least discuss it with me first, okay?”
“I know what I did was wrong. I’m sorry, Warren. But everything will be fine soon,” Flora said and sighed. She looked helpless. But the way she beat her chest made me feel like she was a liar selling fake drugs on the street. I walked forward and held her shoulders.
“Forget about it already. Somehow, it was a good idea.” Flora looked at me. This time, with tears in her eyes.
“Thank you for being so understanding and considerate. Please be patient and continue to pretend as my boyfriend for the time being. Because if we break up too soon, it will only arouse everyone’s suspicion. Especially Sylvia, she is not that easy to fool. But don’t worry, I won’t pester you because of this. As soon as people stop talking about it, we’ll immediately break up.”
I didn’t react at once. My brain seemed to be struck by one hundred thousand volts of electricity. “What did you say? Pretend to be a couple? Break up soon?”
“Yes. After this matter subsides, we will find an excuse to break up peacefully. I’ll think of a valid reason later. We have to come up with a convincing one. How about I cheat on you because I fall in love with Harry?” As she spoke, Flora rubbed her chin, lost in thought. “Oh, no, it’s not possible. Harry is just an idiot. No one will believe I dump you for him.”
“Flora, are you kidding?” I asked in disbelief.
She raised her head and looked at me in surprise. “Of course, I’m serious! Didn’t you agree with me last night? Anyway, we have to fool the public for a while. And to avoid Sylvia from blaming herself, we also have to deceive even my friends. I just need you to cooperate with me. But don’t worry, I will repay you in the future.” Flora talked without giving me a chance to interrupt. Then she ran away without giving me a chance to refute.
Not only me but also Salt was struck d*um*b by her. “Are we being prost*ituted for nothing? Damn! What’s the difference between her and a s*cumb*ag who just left after having s*e*x with a woman? Oh wait, she’s worse! She still wants to take advantage of us!” My mind went blank, and strange emotions surged up in my chest. I wasn’t sure if it was anger or unwillingness. I thought that Flora and I were really together and even started planning our future. But she just told me that we were just pretending. Did I flatter myself too much?
I gritted my teeth and rushed forward, trying to catch up with her. I wanted to ask for an explanation. |But at this time, my phone rang. It was my father, so I had to answer it first.
Before I could say anything, my father’s angry voice on the other end of the line erupted like a volcano. “You disgraceful brat! Shame on you! Do you know that your s*e*x scandal in the equipment room of the school has reached our home?”
“Father, I…”
“You shut up! Just answer my questions. Who is that she wolf? Is she your mate?”
“Maybe she is…” As soon as I opened my mouth, I suddenly remembered what Flora had said just now. I felt frustrated, and my tone became erratic. “Or maybe not…”
“Damn you, bastard! What the hell are you talking about?” My father got even more furious, and his tone was terribly grumpy. If I were in front of him right now, he would have already slapped me to death. He made me feel like I was the most immoral and unfilial son in the world. “I’ll go to the imperial palace with Alpha Leonard for the parade this time. I’ll definitely teach you a lesson when I see you there.” After saying this, my father hung up the phone. I stood rooted to the spot, holding my phone gloomily. The anger in my mind eventually turned into a bitter smile.
