Chapter 385 Out Of Control


    Sylvia''s POV:


    I was a bit surprised, but before I could react, La quickened her pace until she was running right


    next to me.


    "I know you! You''re this year''s soldier king," she said with a bright smile.


    Whoever was given the rank of staff sergeant was also called the "soldier king"—the highest rank


    among soldiers. After this year''s ranking ceremony, everyone discussed it in private.

    I smiled stiffly. "I''m sorry I got you in trouble on our first meeting. You don''t have to run with us, you


    know."


    La chuckled, as if she didn''t care so much about it. "It''s fine. I waste anyway, so I deserve the


    punishment."


    She was running really close to me. I could even hear her inhale clearly.


    What the heck was wrong with me? I didn''t know why, but La''s voice was so pleasant that it


    made my heart beat faster.


    I bit my lower lip, wondering why my heart was out of control.


    I turned my head to steal a nce at La''s face. She was stunningly beautiful. I was so taken


    aback that I got distracted from the path under my feet and tripped on a rock.


    Before I could hit the ground, La reacted quickly and wrapped her arms around me. Was


    I imagining things or was she trying to protect me?


    We both rolled on the ground in a heap until we mmed into a step.


    When I finally came to my senses, I found myself lying prone on top of La. My hands hadnded


    on her soft, plump breasts.


    I quickly sat up and got off her. With my hands behind my back, I apologized to her, cheeks ame


    with embarrassment. "I''m sorry, I didn''t mean to touch your..."


    We were both she-wolves. Plus, Flora and I often wrestled in private. But facing La, I felt weird


    and awkward.


    Her beautiful eyes curved like crescent moons and she smiled at me warmly. "It doesn''t matter,


    since it''s you."


    What? What on earth did that mean?


    Lost in my own thoughts, I stared at her pretty face nkly. It wasn''t until La called my name that


    I came back to my senses.


    She tilted her head to the side and smiled.


    "What''s on your mind?"


    "Nothing!" I shook my head adamantly, feeling more and more awkward.


    Just then, La suddenly approached me and whispered in a charming voice, "I''ve liked you for a


    long time, Sylvia."


    My eyes went as wide as saucers and I wondered if I was hallucinating.


    But to my horror, she added, "You''re just too cute. It''s hard not to like you, Sylvia."


    Somehow, I forgot what it felt like to breathe. My brain seemed to shut down and my body went


    numb—only La''s pleasant voice echoed in my ears.


    "Sylvia! Sylvia, are you okay?"


    Flora''s voice suddenly pulled me back to reality. She was looking at me anxiously.


    I blinked at her nkly, wondering if what just happened was only a dream.


    "Hey, are you okay? What made you fall all of a sudden?" Harry jogged over and asked worriedly.


    Behind me, La suddenly chuckled. As soon as I heard her singsong voice, I instinctively jumped


    up.


    "What''s the matter with you, Sylvia? Why are you so jittery? Are you sick? You don''t look so good."


    Flora stroked my hair and looked at me worriedly.


    "I''m fine, guys." I threw my hands up at a loss. I really had no idea what was wrong with me.


    La also got to her feet. She looked at me with a meaningful smile, as though she wanted to tell


    me something more.


    But before she could even open her mouth, I turned around and ran away as fast as I could.
