Chapter 159: Assassination


    Sylvia''s POV:


    Just then, a loud crash reverberated across the silent road.I quickly opened my eyes and looked back.


    One of the cars following us tumbled down the mountain at a sharp turn.


    "There...look...two more cars are left," I nervously told Rufus.


    Just then, another car collided with the tree and rear- ended the third car.


    I rolled down the window and heard the loud roar of the engines mixed with the angry curses of the


    werewolves.


    I turned around and looked at Rufus.


    He seemed calm andposed as he looked ahead, holding the steering wheel.


    The car gradually slowed down, and my racing heart finally returned to my chest.


    "Are you not afraid anymore?" Rufus grinned at me.


    "I didn''t say I was afraid." I pouted.


    "Oh, really?" Rufus chuckled.


    "Indeed, I was the one freaking out. Not you."


    He looked at me dotingly.My heart skipped a beat when I saw the love shining in his eyes.I quickly


    rolled the car window down to let the cool breeze inside.


    After getting rid of the other cars, Rufus quickly drove to the main road.


    I felt better as we were back on track.


    The gentle breeze kissing my skin and caressing my hair made me happy.


    "Gosh, this is exciting!"


    I stretched my hand out of the window and looked out.


    The night sky looked breathtaking.


    The crescent moon in the starlight sky brought a smile to my face.


    "Do you want to try something more exciting?"


    Rufus smiled and opened the roof, turning the car into a convertible.


    The cold wind made me shiver.The chilly weather increased my excitement.


    We were the only ones traveling on the empty road.


    The starlit sky and the way the car sped on the road felt incredibly romantic.


    It felt as if Rufus and I were the only ones in the world.


    My blood burned in my body.


    Iughed, feeling happier than ever.


    When we finally entered the urban area, Rufus closed the car roof and slowed down the car.


    I gradually calmed down and sat obediently.


    Rufus stopped smiling and touched my earlobe.


    "Your ears are cold.I shouldn''t have opened the roof."


    "Although my ears are cold, my heart is warm." I leaned over and smiled at him.


    "I think you can be a car racer instead of being a prince."


    Rufus chuckled and gently pushed me back.


    "Sit back.I''ll make you ginger tea when we get back." I nodded and sat back obediently.


    "What happened now? Who was it?"


    "Maybe it was an assassination." Rufus shrugged nonchntly.


    "Assassination?"


    I was taken aback, but Rufus looked rxed as if it didn''t matter to him.He rested his arm on the edge


    of the window and stroked his chin.


    "What can I say? I''m used to it."

    "How can you be used to it?" I grew anxious.


    "You have to be more cautious from now on. Has anyone tried assassinating you before?"


    "Once, a killer disguised herself as a ve and sneaked into my room at midnight to attack


    me.However, I caught her red-handed, so shemitted suicide."


    That was when I remembered the rumor I had heard about him killing a female ve in bed.


    People made it seem like he was a ruthless murder.However, I finally understood the truth.
