The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 530

Flora's POV:

Geoffrey's dirty tricks infuriated me. If Warren hadn't pulled me from behind, I would've rushed at him and beat the living crap out of that man.

While I refused to believe that Geoffrey was really controlling Rufus, it was true that Rufus never showed up.

This made my heart sink.

Just then, Geoffrey's subordinate ran over in a panic.

"Alpha Geoffrey! Prince Rufus' room was empty. Our mission failed."

Geoffrey was visibly shocked. He grabbed his subordinate by the shoulders and shook him violently. "How could it be possible? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him? How could you fail me like this? Rufus should never have left that room!"

Fear written all over his face, the subordinate trembled and stammered, "B... But Prince Rufus wasn't in the room..."

I exploded into crazy laughter on the spot. "So this was your plan, Geoffrey?

Geoffrey let go of his subordinate and his domineering facade finally crumbled. He looked at me and Warren and pulled a long face. "I wanted to take my sweet time playing with you, but now, I've run out of time." "What's that supposed to mean?" I had a sinking feeling about this and grabbed Warren's arm subconsciously, trying to find a sense of security. A vicious smile played at Geoffrey's lips and he gestured at his soldiers to act. "Kill them."

Warren immediately stood in front of me, poised to fight anyone who came near us.

My heart sank to the pit of my stomach. It seemed that Geoffrey didn't care if he fell out with us.

I looked at the restless citizens in the distance. I knew that Geoffrey was now in such a hurry to deal with us not only because of Rufus, but also because he wanted to intimidate these citizens.

After all, what with everything that had happened recently, everyone was somewhat dissatisfied with Geoffrey's ruling method. In order to secure his position, Geoffrey needed to display his power to the people today—by killing us.

The soldiers soon surrounded us. Warren and I fought tooth and nail, trying our best to break through the encirclement.

But we were outnumbered. It didn't take long before Warren and I were subdued.
