Chapter 7 The First Meeting


    Rufus'' POV:


    When I got to my room, I immediately dismissed the guards at the door.


    As I turned the knob, my nose was filled with a faint scent that stopped me in my tracks.


    Something was wrong. It seemed like there was someone else in my room. Judging by the scent, it


    was a she-wolf.


    It suddenly urred to me what Shawn had been implying to me all this time. He wished me a


    great night with an ambiguous smile.


    That idiot! Was he trying to win me over in this way? What an arrogant move!


    I knew that the moment I stepped into this room, I would no longer be able to restrain my


    destructive desires. That she-wolf would be torn to pieces in no time.


    I was not in the mood to y Shawn''s game, so I just turned around and was going to leave.


    But then that faint scent filled my nose again. This time, I could smell it clearly. It smelled like a


    sweet orchid that had just freshly bloomed, instantly washing away the manic desires in my head.


    Gradually, I felt my sanity return.


    I couldn''t help turning back around at the door. The fragrance wasing from inside. That scent...


    "Go, Rufus! It''s our mate!" Omar eximed in my mind with excitement.


    Sylvia''s POV:


    As the door creaked open, I heard footsteps in the room getting closer. I was so nervous I could


    almost feel the blood rushing through my veins. But just when I was in despair, I suddenly smelled


    the fragrance of lily and jasmine.


    What was going on? Was this my second mate already?


    I looked up, shocked.


    I saw the so-called cruel and cold blooded Prince Rufus, slowly walking towards me.


    He didn''t turn on the light, so he was shrouded in darkness. But under the moonlight, I could still


    feel him staring at me, like a beast lurking and observing its prey.


    My body was trembling. I tried to curl up and cover my body in shame.


    He stood in front of me and didn''t say anything. I couldn''t tell if there were any expressions on his


    face either.


    "Please, don''t touch me. I..." My voice quivered and my tongue was tied. I couldn''t finish my words.


    Slowly, he bent down. Even with just one movement, I could tell that he was raised in a noble and


    elegant home. Who would have thought that this regal man was cruel and bloodthirsty on the


    inside?


    Sensing that his fingers were about to touch my body, I shut my eyes and couldn''t help crying. I


    would much rather die right now than live with this shame. ''Mother, please help me...''


    But for some reason, I didn''t feel any pain that I was expecting. Instead, I felt my wrists get freed


    from the ropes. I opened my eyes in shock. He had untied me.


    Without thinking twice, I got up and retreated backwards, trying to keep a distance from this


    dangerous lycan. I kept walking back until I had hit a wall. I pressed myself against it and crossed


    my arms over my chest, looking at him with vignce.


    But as soon as I looked up, I found a coat thrown at me and covered enough of my body. My nose


    was filled with that cold, floral fragrance from the coat.


    When I got back to my senses, I slipped the coat off of me and looked at him strangely.


    "Put it on." His tone was cold, but I didn''t feel any murderous hint to it.


    Even though I could see why people would think his appearance was cold and ruthless, he actually


    seemed a little different. He didn''t seem to be as cruel as I thought. Was it because of our mate


    bond, perhaps?


    I obliged and put the coat back on, catching a whiff of that amazing mate scent again. I bit my lip


    and saw him leaning towards me, but I didn''t feel I needed to be as vignt anymore. In fact, my


    heart even seemed expectant of something else.
