The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 448

Sylvia's POV:

Although Geoffrey was vehemently scolding the leading guard, I felt that he was implying something else.

With a straight face, I eyed Geoffrey warily as my mind raced.

As his scolding came to a close, Geoffrey ordered his men to drag the leading guard away and execute him.

But before they could drag him away, I put a stop to this farce.

"Forget it. It was the five of us who broke the rules in the first place. He was just fulfilling his duty. He's not in the wrong."

As I spoke, I cast a cold glance at the sniveling leading guard.

He didn't seem to expect that I would intercede for him. His eyes went wide in bewilderment, but then he quickly nodded to me in thanks.

I looked away from him and turned to Geoffrey. "I think it'd be better to avoid bloodshed tonight." "If that's what Miss Todd wants, then I'll spare his life." Geoffrey raised his eyebrows and gave me a friendly smile. Then, to the leading guard, he growled, "Get out of my sight."

The leading guard yelped with joy and hurriedly crawled out.

Then Geoffrey asked the maids to bring us coffee and exquisite desserts. He said that he wanted to catch up with us.

I held the cup of coffee in my hand and didn't say anything. I had a gut feeling that he wanted to ask us some questions, like where we had been tonight.

Sure enough, after asking Harry about his father, Geoffrey turned to me to ask about our whereabouts tonight.

"Why didn't you take anyone with you? Why did you go out alone? Our pack isn't that big, but one can still get lost easily if they're not careful."
