Sylvia's POV:
I couldn't wait for pleasantries. I kicked the door open impatiently.
I was greeted by a bizarre scene. Ashley, wearing disheveled clothes, was cling to the bedside while Rufus was pulling her arm. My eyes lingered over her bare skin, which was covered with more bruises than I could remember.
The marks of intimacy seemed to tell me how intense their sex was before I got here.
My mind went completely blank. All I wanted to do in that moment was to kill someone.
"What the fuck?! Did Rufus really sleep with this vampire slut?" Yana was also going crazy. "That vampire looks like she just had hot sex. Urgh! I should never have trusted Rufus!"
I was at a loss for words as I approached Rufus. My hands itched to destroy everything in sight.
Geoffrey, who was following me from behind, immediately stepped forward and dramatically covered his eyes with his hands. "Oh, dear. I'm sorry to have bothered you while you were in the middle of something, Prince Rufus."
Geoffrey's exaggerated reaction only made me feel angrier.
Rufus' shirt was crumpled and stained with sweat. Panic was written all over his handsome face, as though he was wrought with guilt.
"Sylvia, it's not what you think it is. I... It's..."
He even stammered falteringly.
Ignoring Rufus, I turned to Geoffrey and asked through gritted teeth, "Can you take Ashley away first? I need to talk with Prince Rufus in private."
Rufus' POV:
Of course I didn't dare to say anything at this time. I nodded at Geoffrey, telling him with my eyes to take the slave away.
Geoffrey immediately understood and called a guard.
The slave whimpered and grabbed my arm in fear. I quickly swatted her hands away, as though she was poisonous.
