The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 386

Sylvia's POV:

After all, I hadn't finished the ten laps yet. I had to keep running.

But this time, my speed was much slower than before. I kept getting lost in my own thoughts, and my mind was a complete mess.

Truth be told, I was flustered. What did Layla mean when she said "since it's you"? Could she have meant what I thought she meant?

But no one would confess their feelings as soon as they met the person they had a crush on! It had to be a prank.

On the other hand, she looked serious just now and didn't seem to be playing games with me.

The more I mulled it over, the more muddled my mind became. What the hell! Didn't she know that I already had a mate?

Layla was a beautiful, sexy she-wolf, and she even made me blush whenever I looked at her. But I was straight through and through—even if Rufus was out of the picture.

Even though I thought so, my mind still couldn't stop picturing Layla's beautiful face.

I gradually became irritable, as one did when something was out of their control.

I kept reminding myself of Rufus, trying to cover Layla's face with Rufus'. I ran in a complete daze — until Harry stopped me.

"Sylvia, you've done ten laps already."

"Oh, I didn't even notice..." I nearly hit myself on the head irritably. I had almost run one more lap.

Harry and I slowly made our way back to the team. Flora was already there, chatting with Layla happily. From what I could pick up, they seemed to be talking about how to make breasts bigger.

Just then, Layla saw me and smiled.

My heart skipped a beat and I quickly looked away. I couldn't wait until training was over.

But even after training, I was still bound to see her. Layla was a girl and would most definitely be sharing a dorm room with us.

When this thought crossed my mind, I pursed my lips unhappily.

"Sylvia, what's with you today?" Flora seemed to notice my conflicted expression and looked at me in confusion.

So, you...

Layla's expression softened. "I scared you just now, didn't I? Maybe it's because I admire you so much that I wasn't able to express myself properly."

"So, you meant you admired me when you said that you liked me?" I asked seriously, narrowing my eyes at her.

Layla raised her eyebrows innocently. "What else did you think?"

Hearing this, my cheeks turned red but I felt relieved.

"Hey! What're you two talking about? Who do you like?" Flora tried to squeeze into our conversation. "How come you have a secret already?!"

But before she could say anything more, Jerome interrupted her angrily.

"Flora! Have you no shred of remorse?"

The frightened Flora snapped back to her attention. She squeezed her eyes shut and shouted, "Sir! I asked for your permission just now, but you didn't hear me!"
