Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince

Chapter 1144 A Moment Of Solace

Lucy's POV:

Wrapped in a blanket, I sat on the balcony and watched the snow fall from the sky as night fell.My thoughts were all over the place.

It was yet another winter without Kyle by my side.

When springtime arrived and the air warmed up, I wondered if I would finally feel better.

With that, I straightened up and drank some wine.I had to think on my feet.

Apparently, Rufus had called a doctor urgently earlier, but after that, nothing else happened.I thought that Beryl should have survived.

But it didn't matter.

That girl was not my real target this time.

As I kept a low profile these years, I had also quietly trained and placed trusted subordinates in the imperial palace.I had used everyone I could to execute my plan this time.

Although I had indeed been too anxious, I couldn't wait any longer.

Despite Rufus' memory loss, his feelings for Sylvia did not change, even after she had changed her name and identity to Crystal.

There was little certainty that they wouldn't reconcile and get back together in the future.I wouldn't allow her son to be the heir to the throne; or my forbearance over the years would be in vain.

Firman must be given that opportunity.I'd make sure he'd succeed the throne whatever it took, even if it didn't actually belong to him.I gulped down all the red wine and chucked the glass out the balcony.

Then I turned around and picked up the phone from the table.

It was already late.

My men hadn't contacted me yet, which made me very uneasy.

I was afraid that something went wrong.

Just as I was anxious, I felt a pair of soft hands on my back.

Then an enticing aroma filled my nostrils.

My frown loosened and my brows unfurled as I took the hands.

I leaned back against the person and relied on her wholeheartedly.

The person behind me chuckled, raised her hand, and rubbed my temples.

She said brightly, "Honey, don't be upset.It's all going to work out."

I opened my eyes and swiveled to face my personal maid, Rosa.

My gaze fell on her beautiful eyes first and then her luscious lips.Her seductive mouth was ajar and a bold shade of red painted her lips.I wiped it with my thumb and looked at it carefully.

Rosa cracked a grin.

"This is my newly made lipstick.I'll give it to you later."

I nodded without saying anything.

Once again, I leaned my head on her shoulder lazily.

For many years, Rosa was my only companion and comfort in this lonely palace.

She gently stroked my back and comforted me in a slow voice, "Don't think too much.If our plan has been exposed, this place should have already been surrounded by the king's guards and the bean king himself.Trust me, everything is going according to our plan."

"Yes."

I was a little depressed, but after being comforted by Rosa, I realized that my worries were unwarranted.

"I heard that the plum trees have started to bloom in the suburbs.Once our plan has been carried out successfully, we should sneak out of the palace to enjoy the blossom," Rosa added.

I didn't say anything.

Instead, I rested my chin on her shoulder and felt tired for no reason.

Since the day Richard was exiled, I had also gone down in the world.

If I wanted to go out of the palace, I had to ask for permission first.

And in most cases, my request was denied.

As time went by, I simply gave up the idea of going out of the palace.

Later, thanks to Rosa who always came up with brilliant ideas, I was able to sneak out of the palace whenever I wanted.

Although I could be out for only a short while every time, it was enough.If not for Firman, I would have already left this place.

"Quit moping and just be happy,"

Rosa murmured as she licked my earlobe with the tip of her tongue.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
