Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 424 Before Leaving
Sylvia’s POV:
Early the next day, I came back to the team with a sore body, feeling a little depressed. The s*e*x with Rufus last night was so rough that I almost couldn’t pull myself out of bed today.
When I got to the training ground, I spotted Harry waving me over. I hadn’t seen him that excited in a long time.
I walked to him and asked, “What’s with all this energy?”
“Not telling you.” Harry blinked and averted my gaze by adjusting his military cap.
Not long after, I figured out why Harry was happy. Warren was back.
I was quite surprised. Since Warren was still injured the last time I talked to him, and now this mission was moved earlier, I didn’t think Warren could make it.
Jerome didn’t seem to expect to see Warren today either. He made sure that Warren was cleared by the doctors and that all his injuries were fine before allowing him to return to the team.
Compared to the obvious excitement on Harry’s face, Flora actually looked sad.
“He’s back too soon…” Flora muttered. She didn’t seem to be happy about Warren’s return.
It made sense she was this way, since the two of them had just broken up. The unease between the two would be inevitable. He made sure that Warren was cleared by the doctors and that all his injuries were fine before allowing him to return to the team.
Warren voluntarily stood beside Flora. When Jerome saw this, he frowned. “What are you doing? Flora is much shorter than you. Why are you standing beside her?”
Harry burst into laughter.
Harry’s laugh was exaggerated, which was warranted. Flora was the shortest, while Warren was the tallest. With the two of them beside each other, the team looked like a valley between mountains.
embarra*s*sed, Warren stood in his place. It seemed that he didn’t want to leave anyway.
“What are you doing still standing there? Go to the other side!” Jerome yelled, attracting the attention of other sold*iers on the training ground.
It was only then that Warren obeyed, although rather reluctantly.
While Jerome talked about the do’s and don’ts, I noticed Warren’s head frequently poking out of the line to look at us. His eyes seemed glued to Flora and he wasn’t being discreet about it at all.
I tugged on Flora’s sleeve. “Are you sure you broke up with Warren?”
“Yes, I’m sure.” Flora nodded and turned back to listen to Jerome. I had never seen her so attentive like this. She was clearly acting weird.
Warren poked his head out once again and I had to ask Flora again, “Are you sure the break up was mutual? I don’t think Warren wants to break up with you at all.”
Flora scoffed in disgust, not even glancing at Warren. “Don’t worry. It’s been settled already. Besides, Warren isn’t the type to obnoxiously pester an ex-girlfriend.”
She was right about that, at least. With Warren’s pride, he wouldn’t risk his dignity just to pester her.
At that, I dropped the topic.
The six members of our team now formally joined the army. Jerome gave us a number each, which was going to be our future code names as well.
We were all excited, especially Harry who was smiling from ear to ear.
It was soon time to leave. Rufus had brought his own team to meet us. Surprisingly, Leonard came with Rufus. He took Edwin to see me off.
After saying goodbye, Leonard took out a dagger and gave it to me.
The dagger had beautiful, intricate engravings on it. When the blade was unsheathed, it reflected a cold light. When Edwin saw the dagger, he was shocked.
