Chapter 614 Back To The Capital City
Sylvia''s POV:
Last night, Rufus and I had a good time. He even convinced me to try different, unorthodox
positions. We didn''t stop until dawn.
Because we slept sote, I didn''t wake up until it was almost noon. As soon as I opened my eyes,
Rufus leaned over and kissed me.
"''Morning, babe," Rufus said gently, stroking my cheek gently.
"How long have you been awake?" I yawned and held his hand, still a little groggy.
"I just woke up actually."
Rufus nted a kiss on my forehead and finally climbed out of bed to get dressed.
I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and sat up, too. Just as I was about to follow Rufus into the
bathroom to freshen up, my eyes fell on the "mole" on his back. It had grown even bigger.
In the blink of an eye, my good mood vanished.
Pursing my lips unhappily, I tried to calm down by telling myself that everything was going to be fine.
Thepleted ckthorn pattern would be huge. With the current rate at which the pattern was
growing on Rufus'' back, there was still a lot of time left to find a solution.
After getting dressed, Rufus went to the bathroom to run a bath for me. While doing so, he talked to
me from time to time.
Although he seldom talked in front of others, when the two of us were alone in private, he not only
talked a lot, but also acted like a spoiled child sometimes.
I got out of bed and followed him into the bathroom. There, I found Rufus shaving. He had carefully
applied the white cream on his chin and was swiping at it with a sharp razor de. Rufus preferred
to shave like this over an electronic razor.
His movements were simple and efficient. In a matter of no time, he was done. Then he turned
around, picked me up, and gently ced me in the tub, kissing me.

"We''re going back this afternoon. The army from the capital will arriveter. After the transfer of
power, we will take the military vehicles back directly."
I was a little surprised to hear that. "Really? I haven''t even packed up yet."
"The notice was issued only yesterday. But you slipped away by then..." Rufus snorted and
squeezed out some toothpaste onto my toothbrush for me. "Go pack after you''ve freshened up. I''m
going to turn over the subsequent work to the local councilors. Bring your phone and call me if
anything happens."
"Got it." I took the toothbrush and nodded obediently.
"And don''t run around this time," Rufus flicked my forehead and pursed his lips reproachfully.
Embarrassed, I stuck out my tongue. "Fine. I promise I won''t do it again."
Rufus looked me up and down before finally nodding with satisfaction. He pinched my cheek and
said, "Okay. Finish up here. I''m going to work."
"Okay."
After Rufus left, I did as I was told and quickly packed up my things. Just as I was about to finish,
my eyesnded on the potted nt that I had left in Rufus'' room.
To my surprise, its flower had bloomed.
It was still a bud before I left yesterday morning.
It bloomed so soon!
But this was a good thing. I could verify whether it was effective or not after we got back to the
capital city.
This brightened up my mood. After collecting my stuff in Rufus'' room, I went back to the dorm I
shared with Flora to continue packing.
That afternoon, we all piled into the military vehicles and headed back to the capital city.
We were all in a good mood. The series of terrible events had finallye to an end, and the
werewolves from the border packs were gradually getting their lives back on track.
Overall, everything was getting better.
The trip back to the capital was as fast as the journey to the border. We arrived at the imperial
pce after two days'' journey.
Ethan, the lycan king, personally weed us at the gate of the pce, but to my surprise, Richard
was standing next to him.
Why the hell was that guy released from prison?!
Worse yet, he looked glowing, with ruddy cheeks and an energetic demeanor. Those who didn''t
know him might''ve thought that he had just returned from a vacation.
Damn it! My good mood was ruined in an instant.
