The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 1089

Crystal's POV:

I trudged back to my palace in low spirits, slumping on the bench in the garden. I could feel my heart slowly dying inside me.

Rufus had been so cold to me, as if I were an outsider. It had only been last night when we made love so passionately, yet he had treated me like I was some garbage to be disposed of.

A sob broke out of me. It wasn't his fault. He hadn't been completely sober last night, and probably hadn't recognized me.

I should be relieved that Rufus did not discover my identity, but it was the last thing on my mind. I was barely holding myself back from storming into his room and screaming at him that it had been me last night.

I pulled at my hair in frustration. Things could not be any worse than they were now.

Goddess, what should I do?

"Rufus is about to have a new mate and move on. Isn't that what you have long foreseen?" Yana's voice came to me. "You've been expecting this, so what are you being so miserable for?"
