The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 572

Chapter 572: Beyond the Temple Walls (II)

Primrose stared at Edmond in complete shock as he shifted into his wolf form in this timeline.

His wolf still had the same snow-white fur and piercing blue eyes she remembered. But unlike the Edmund she knew, this one was nearly twice as large. His powerful build made him look even more imposing.

Maybe it was because, in this timeline, the King had rescued him when he was still a pup. Therefore, he had grown up with enough food and proper care, never having to suffer through hunger during his childhood.

On the other side, Rose’s eyes also widened in surprise, but there was no fear in them. Instead, they sparkled with wonder.

"So... this is your wolf," she whispered.

Edmond lowered his head until it was level with her. His ears twitched slightly, and his long tail gave a slow, uncertain swish behind him. Even in this form, he seemed worried that she might be frightened.

Rose smiled and without hesitation, she reached out and gently rested her hand on his head. His soft white fur slipped through her fingers like fresh snow. It was warm, thick, and surprisingly comforting.

"You’re beautiful," she murmured.

Edmond froze in his place and a low whine escaped his throat before he leaned into her touch without even realizing it.

Watching the scene unfold, Primrose couldn’t help but smile through the ache in her chest.

Even in this timeline... he’s still the same. No matter how different his life had been, Edmond still melted whenever the woman he loved touched him.

Rose let out a small laugh as his fluffy tail wagged a little faster. "I thought wolves were supposed to look fierce," she teased softly. "But you’re acting more like a giant puppy."

Edmond let out another soft huff, almost as if he were protesting.

Rose giggled. "I wasn’t making fun of you," she said, scratching gently behind one of his ears. "I like this side of you."

His tail wagged even faster before he gently nudged Rose with his snout, silently asking her to climb onto his back.

A soft smile spread across Rose’s face. She decided to stop teasing him and carefully climbed onto his broad back as soon as Edmond lowered himself to the ground, resting his belly against the earth so she could get on more easily.

As soon as Rose climbed onto his back, they began their journey out of the Sorex Kingdom, traveling through the forest. She had no idea where Edmond was taking her, but she trusted him completely. After all, as long as she was with him, she wasn’t afraid of what lay ahead.

They stopped from time to time to eat and rest before continuing their journey. Since it was easier for Edmond to travel at night, they spent the daytime sleeping in caves or abandoned buildings. Even then, they never rested for more than three hours.
