Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 715 Break Up Thoroughly
Sylvia’s POV:
Thankfully, a pair of big hands caught my body before I could drop on the floor. I raised my head stiffly. It was Rufus who came in a hurry. Judging from the expression on his face, he seemed to have also heard what had happened.
“Sylvia, you need to calm down,” he uttered worriedly as he held me.
But I couldn’t calm down at all. I grabbed the guard’s collar and asked frantically, “Where is Leonard?”
The guard started to speak but held his tongue after giving it some thought. He probably thought I still refused to believe him. “Alpha Leonard is really dead.”
I finally lost it and said, “What I am asking you is…”
Words seemed to have left my head as I couldn’t finish my sentence. There was a lump in my dry throat, and my voice was extremely hoarse. “Where is his… his body?” The guard ch*oked with sobs and began to wail. I was able to pinpoint the body’s whereabouts in between his sobs.
The tension in my hands melted away as I released his collar and took a long breath. “I’m sorry.”
Then I turned around and hurried to that location.
When I arrived at the place, I was stopped by the guards at the door. “Get out of my way,” I ordered coldly.
They exchanged glances before one of them said sternly, “Miss Alina doesn’t allow anyone to go in there.”
I sneered, “She forbids anyone from entering? Is she trying to hide something from us?”
Soon, a realization dawned on me. Alina was the last person Leonard saw before he d*ied, and the man a*s*sa*s*sinated him was her fiancé. Apparently, Leonard’s death had something to do with her.
The sold*iers were hostile after hearing what I said. “You are not allowed to enter. Can you bear the dire consequences if something happens?”
“Yes, I can.” I wanted them to know I was serious as I planned to f0rce my way in. When I was about to come into conflict with them…
Rufus came in a hurry. He cast a frosty glare at the men and said in a cold voice, “Open the door. Your Alpha is dead. It’s only right that we check his corpse.”
Only then did I realized that a young coroner in a white robe was behind him.
The guards were in a dilemma. They seemed to be afraid of Rufus’ authority, but they also didn’t dare defy Alina’s order.
Then, out of nowhere, the door opened from inside. Alina walked out. She looked worn out in that heavy black dress and black veil.
She cast a cold glance my way and sneered at Rufus, “What? You think you can do whatever you want here just because you’re the prince? I’m Alpha Leonard’s only daughter. I’m not allowing anyone to disturb my father. May his soul rest in peace.”
Rufus snorted. He nonchalantly straightened his tie and said unruly, “Alina, have you forgotten something? No matter who it is, and no matter how noble their status is, as long as one is a member of the werewolf race, they must obey the royal family. This may be the Silver Moon Pack, I still have the right to call the shot here.”
“Rufus! Don’t go too far!” Alina couldn’t believe that Rufus would be so rude to her. She pulled a straight face and looked at him coldly.
Rufus ignored her and walked inside with me hand in hand. The sold*iers no longer dared to stop us.
Alina went berserk. She blocked our way and glared at me before saying, “Everyone can go in except you! I won’t let you go inside! Not even over my dead body!”
