Geoffrey's POV:
I was shocked to see the shame on everyone's faces when they heard Flora's words.
This was the first time I had ever seen regret and hesitation on their faces. A frisson of unease unfurled within my belly.
"Mind your own business!" I glowered in Flora's direction, and then instantly ordered the soldier to gag her.
Warren kicked the soldier away and placed himself in front of her like a protective shield. "How dare you hurt her?"
Hidden behind Warren's bulky body, Flora poked her head out with a dubious expression. "Did I say something wrong? You are the reason the border has become a living hell!"
As soon as she made this accusation, the werewolves on both sides of the wall stared at me as if they were the ones who had challenged me.
My temper was rising. These people were so ungrateful. If it wasn't for me, the border would have been conquered by vampires a long time ago. Now, just because an outsider had spoken a few words, they were doubting my ability to govern.
I snorted. Just as I was about to give them a piece of my mind, my phone rang.
I took out my phone and saw that Hobson was calling. Why was he calling me out of the blue?
Was something wrong?
I answered the phone with a frown.
"Sylvia has run away."
Hobson disconnected the call after this short simple sentence. It took a few seconds for his message to sink in.
The color drained from my face as fear settled inside me.
