Chapter 408 - Saving Her Cursed Lycan Prince

“The wild wolf might be cute, but it has a bad temper. No one’s allowed to get close to it. Everyone knew that it came for you, so they tried telling it that you were on a mission. It was amazing! The wild wolf seemed to understand.” Maya sounded delighted as she relayed the news to me, saying that it was the first time she had ever seen a wild wolf so intelligent.

“Although it understood that you were gone, it didn’t give up. It’s been staying at your dormitory, waiting for you to come back. Moreover, it was so huge that it occupied the whole dormitory room, and no one was allowed to get close to it. Plus, it gained a lot of weight, so now everyone calls it the ‘big fat wolf’.”

I couldn’t help but burst into giggles. “How’d it get fat?”

“Everyone brings it food, like raw beef and mutton. Although the big fat wolf has a bad temper, it will become as obedient as a dog when presented with the right food. It’s so cute, Sylvia!” The more Maya talked about Rin, the more excited she became. She even stopped pruning the plants.

I listened to Maya talk while eating the cakes she had prepared for me. It sounded like Rin had a good life these days.

Flora should’ve returned to our dormitory by now. Perhaps she had seen Rin.

Oh, my God! Only then did it occur to me that Flora hadn’t met Rin before either. When she came to the forbidden forest for me back then, Rin was helping the injured somewhere else in the forest.

Flora was so timid and Rin was short tempered. That couldn’t be a good combination. And it didn’t help that Layla wasn’t there to help Flora. On our way back, Layla said that she would go back to her pack first, so she had parted with us halfway.

She wouldn’t be back so soon, which meant that there were only Rin and Flora left in the dormitory.

Oh, my God! Flora was pregnant!

Thinking about this, my brain suddenly buzzed. I quickly stuffed the rest of the cake into my mouth and packed all the chocolate eclairs into a box, intending to bring them to Flora.

But I had swallowed too fast and choked on the cake.

I punched my chest to knock it out, which gave Maya a fright.

“Miss Todd, there’s no need to rush. We still got plenty of cakes.”

I waved my hand to calm her down. After downing the whole cup of tea, I was finally able to breathe normally.

I didn’t dare to delay, so I gathered all my things and started to run. “Tell Rufus that I’m going back to the army and that I won’t be having dinner with him tonight.”

“Okay! Miss Todd, don’t run! You might fall!”

“Don’t worry about me!”

Without stopping, I waved at Maya and left Rufus’ palace.

Along the way, I saw many familiar faces, all of whom were soldiers I met during the landslide in the forbidden forest. I waved at them while running but I didn’t dare to slow down.

Finally, I arrived at the door to my dorm room. I wiped the sweat on my forehead and panted heavily, completely out of breath. The army was by no means close to the imperial palace, so I felt as though I was sweating buckets after running for so long.

Suddenly, Flora’s scream came from inside the room.

I was so scared that my heart nearly stopped beating in my chest. I burst into the room, shouting, “Rin, stop!”

But the scene that greeted me left me stunned.

Sylvia’s POV

Rin was squatting on the floor, her big tail wagging leisurely.

Flora, on the other hand, was squatting opposite Rin, with a little wolf pup in her arms. Her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.

I stood by the door, too confused to comprehend what I was looking at. What was going on?

Both Rin and Flora looked at me when I nearly kicked the door down. Flora excitedly held up the little wolf pup in her arms and cried, “Look! It’s so cute!”

I felt relieved. Fortunately, nobody was hurt.

Only then did it click- Rin had finally given birth!

I rushed to Flora’s side and stared at the little wolf pup in awe. How could something as huge as Rin give birth to something so small? It was fluffy and round, like a furry meatball.

Rin whimpered and rubbed her forehead against the back of my hand tenderly.

I squatted down, petted her, and kissed her on the head. “Rin, you’re amazing!”

Rin raised her head proudly, baring her fangs in a wide smile. It was so cute.

Then she nibbled my sleeve lightly as though to tell me to look at the baby.

Flora carefully handed the little wolf to me. Holding it carefully, I felt my heart soften like a marshmallow.

The little wolf pup was adorable. Like its mother, it had gray hair, four pink paws, and the back of its ears had a few stray white hairs.

The little wolf pup must have just opened its eyes recently because it looked around with confusion. It seemed to trust me, because then it rested its head on my hand.

I smiled. Now I understood why Rin had stubbornly chosen to stay in my dormitory and didn’t allow anyone to get close to it. Rin had used my dormitory as her delivery room.

Amused, I rubbed Rin’s head and said, “Good girl. You’re so smart.”

The forbidden forest was rife with danger. Even though Rin was by no means weak, giving birth would leave her and the pup vulnerable. It was hard to say whether some other powerful creature would dare attack Rin, but compared to the forbidden forest, my dormitory was undoubtedly the safer place to deliver a pup.

Rin wagged her tail, clearly enjoying my praise.

Just then, I felt something tug the back of my shirt.

I turned around and found that it was another wolf pup nibbling my clothes. This one’s whole body was white, except for its tail, which was slightly gray. Compared to the pup in my arms, the pup nibbling at my shirt was clearly the naughty one. It tried to climb on my back, whimpering from the struggle.

Flora giggled and hurried to pick up the little wolf pup on my back. “Oh, my God! It’s too cute!”

I named the two pups one by one and held them in my arms, burying my face in their soft fur. I wished I could hold them while sleeping at night.

But Rin seemed to be unhappy. She plopped down next to me and pushed my hand away from her babies, asking me to pet her instead.
