Chapter 473 Unfair


    Sylvia''s POV:


    I didn''t believe that.


    If the lye an king had acquiesced, Rufus would have known it.


    "I know you don''t believe me. Youe from the imperial capital and have lived a happy, peaceful


    life..."


    "You are wrong, Felix," I interrupted him. "I used to be a ve. My life was no better than yours."

    Felix was silent for a while, and his face finally softened. "It doesn''t mean others are the same as


    you. In all these years, the lycan king has not once asked about the situation in our pack. Either he


    feels guilty or he just doesn''t care."


    "Enough! Felix, you can''t make ims without evidence. I don''t want you to get yourself into trouble


    because of spreading this rumor," I reprimanded him. I didn''t want the innocent boy to get into


    trouble by making false ims.


    But my mind was aplete mess now. I couldn''t help but think of Ethan being paranoid about


    power and inheritance. Even though Richard hadmitted such serious crimes and taken the


    lives of many innocent soldiers, Ethan still spared Richard''s life because only he could extend his


    bloodline.


    Ethan was probably more ruthless than I thought.


    Felix didn''t utter another. He lowered his head, and my heart broke at the sight of the little boy who


    looked broken and dejected.


    "Felix, your anger is justifiable. I understand your situation. But..." I wanted to remind Felix that the


    world wasn''t as cruel as he thought. However, I couldn''t because I had no right to say that. After all,


    no one could erase the pain and unjust he had encountered. The people in power had ruined the


    little boy''s life and left an indelible scar in his heart.


    Felix looked up at me. His silence made me feel a little guilty.


    "I''m sorry, Felix. I know I have no stand to speak for you or anyone else. But I hope you can keep


    those spections and doubts to yourself until you find conclusive evidence. After all, you are


    talking about the king who has the power to decide the fate of the entire empire. Even if you don''t


    care about yourself, you should do this for the sake of Alva," I advised him.


    Felix lowered his head and clenched his fist as if he were controlling his rage against the world.


    Finally, his shoulders slumped, and he nodded weakly. "I know. I will control my anger and never


    utter those words again."


    I breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed his shoulders. "The children in the orphanage are all


    hostages for those outside the wall, aren''t they? They are shackles that trap you here so that you''d


    surrender without resisting."


    Felix smiled bitterly. "Not exactly. The children inside are all our family members. We''ve sent them


    there in person though." "Why?" I was confused.


    Felix remained silent for a while. When he looked up at me, I could see the pain in his eyes. "The


    best resources, education, and living environment is avable only inside the wall. We can also visit


    them once a month. The children live a happy,fortable life there. Even if their rtives outside


    the wall die, the children inside would live a secure life, free of fear. They would also receive a


    generous pension aspensation." He smiled sadly. "So I guess you have an idea now as to why


    the werewolves outside the wall are eager to be prey for the vampires. We want to secure the


    life of our dear ones."


    Felix sounded calm as if we were discussing the weather. I could see life had toughened the


    innocent boy -- he had be numb. However, his eyes lit up every time he spoke about Alva.


    "I''m doing all this for Alva. How can such a young child face this cruel world all by herself?" Felix


    grew depressed. Talking about Alva seemed to reveal his vulnerability.


    My heart broke as I silently watched the little boy risking his own life just to keep his little sister


    happy.
