The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 991

Rufus' POV:

The child looked so pitiful. The bandage on his face was loosened, his cheek was swollen and red, and his bare arm was covered in pinch marks.

I was already in a bad mood, and when seeing this, I felt like killing someone.

There were five she-wolves surrounding the child. The one in the lead had very short hair and was bizarrely dressed. She was wearing a bunch of metal jewelry all over a frumpy black dress. She looked like a free-thinker, but in fact, she bullied the weak and feared the strong. Otherwise, why did she tremble violently as soon as she saw me?

I took the child's hand and pulled him towards me, and then ordered the five she-wolves to kneel down and apologize to the child.

The she-wolves didn't dare to refuse. They all fell to their knees and apologized to Arron profusely.

To my surprise, Arron didn't accept their apology. He was such a little boy and his voice was very childish, but he was quite articulate.

"You should apologize to my mommy, not me. You hurt her favorite baby and you said bad things about her. You said that my mommy is ugly!"

My mood soured even more when I heard that. How dare these she-wolves say such a thing? They were courting death.

The she-wolves weren't expecting Arron to call them out like that. They exchanged anxious glances, and no one was willing to take the initiative to apologize first.

"Crystal is the Alpha of the border pack. You can't badmouth any Alpha behind their back. Or else according to the law of our empire, those who reproach an Alpha for no reason should be sentenced to exile." I looked coldly at the she-wolves kneeling on the ground, and the anger in my heart kept brewing. I was furious at the thought of these she-wolves' belittling of Crystal. After all, it was my father who selected Crystal to be the Alpha. How could they slander her so flippantly?

Only then did the she-wolves realize the gravity of the situation. They apologized to Arron profusely, "We're sorry. We shouldn't have said that about your mommy. Please forgive us."

Arron stuck out his lower lip and looked at them stubbornly. "Do you really mean it?"

"Of course we mean it. Your mommy is the most beautiful person in the world, and you're her beautiful baby." The she-wolves smiled at the child flatteringly. Although they kept apologizing, I knew that they didn't really mean it. There was still undisguised pride and disgust in their eyes.
