Rufus rubbed my nose dotingly. “Is this the craziest thing you’ve ever done?”
“No.” I shook my head and looked into his eyes. “The craziest thing I have ever done is falling in love with you, Rufus. My love for you has given me the courage to even go against the entire world.”
Rufus didn’t expect me to say that. He was in a daze for a long time. Dissatisfied with his dull reaction, I grabbed the hair on the back of his head, pulled him closer, and pressed my lips against his.
Rufus quickly seized the opportunity and spread my legs wide. Soon, our soft moans and the thumping of flesh on flesh filled the deep pit once again.
Sylvia’s POV
A blush flamed my cheeks as I let Rufus dress me.
If I hadn’t begged him to stop, he wouldn’t have let go of me. It was all my fault; I flirted with him and ignited his desire. Now, I was weak in my knees; my legs refused to carry the weight of my body.
The rain grew heavier, and water began to accumulate in the pit.
“Let’s get out of here as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will get drowned in water,” I said to Rufus.
Rufus nodded and picked me in his arms. “Let’s go up first.”
“No. I can walk by myself.” I gently patted his arm, gesturing for him to put me down.
“Don’t you want me to hold you in my arms?” Rufus frowned in disagreement. “It’ll be faster if I carry you. You can barely stand still now.”
Rufus seemed overbearing and clingy for the first time. I looked at him helplessly. “I’m afraid we won’t be able to get out of the pit if you hold me in your arms.”
Rufus looked up, examining the height of the pit. “With the springing ability of the werewolf, I’ll effortlessly carry you out. But there is one problem though; I don’t know if those wolves are still waiting for us.”
“I was so frightened by the wolves that I fell into the trap.” I looked up – it was foggy outside. “I think the wolves must have left because of the rain.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the howling of wolves. I looked up at him, feeling embarrassed.
Rufus chuckled. “They are still waiting for us.”
I took a deep breath and gently tapped his chest. “Put me down. It’s a bit awkward to talk this way.”
Rufus finally put me down and smoothed my hair. “There are wolves outside. We have to leave the place as soon as possible, or we will be in trouble when it gets dark.”
Just as I was about to jump up with Rufus, a gray wolf stared at us from above. He snarled at us, narrowing his eyes, before running away.
“It looks like these wild wolves haven’t given up yet and are waiting outside the pit,” Rufus said, holding my hand.
“The grey wolf looked intelligent.” I looked at Rufus in surprise. “And it’s strange. Why are these wild wolves coming after us? It looks like they want to kill us.”
The howls of wild wolves reverberated in the air, getting louder with every passing minute as if they were giving out a warning.
“I think the grey wolf is the leader of the pack,” Rufus said calmly.
“How do you know?” I was confused.
“When I came to find you, a group of wild wolves besieged me. The grey wolf was commanding the pack to attack me, but he didn’t directly participate in the assault.” Rufus smiled.
“That makes sense. I, too, was in the same situation when they chased me. That grey wolf had been hiding in the dark, leading the battle. The wild wolves seemed to only listen to his orders. In that case, we could only…” I paused and looked at Rufus.
“Capture the head wolf first!”
Rufus and I exclaimed at the same time.
Then, we turned into our wolf form and sprang up at the same time. We darted out of the pit to attack the grey wolf who was surrounded by the entire pack. The wild wolves dispersed as soon as we attacked them. The grey wolf was more clever than we thought. He quickly avoided our attacks and ran toward the pit. However, we understood that he was luring us into the trap.
Sylvia’s POV
The gray wolf’s eyes were ferocious. On all fours, he reached up to an average person’s waist in height. His big tail flicked around like a broom. I could tell he was an agile mover. He didn’t confront me head on, but he was moving around erratically, not allowing me to predict what he was going to do next. This made me vulnerable to fall into whatever trap he could think of, which didn’t surprise me. I knew all along this one was also as intelligent.
At this time, Omar rushed out, breaking through the pack of wolves he was in. The strong wind blew against his shaggy fur, making him look majestic in a way. “This one’s mine.”
“Okay.” I stepped forward, grazing past his body, and headed straight for the oncoming wolves. Using my sharp claws, I scratched the head of the wolf in front of me, causing him to howl on the spot. If he were a human, he would have been able to express his pain through words.
Seeing this, the other wild wolves bared their teeth and growled, surrounding me in less than a second.
Although these weren’t the most powerful wild wolves, I was still very much outnumbered by them. One after the other, they rushed up and attacked me. I had no choice but to fight back.
On the other hand, Omar seemed to be holding his own. He had already pinned down the gray wolf to the ground and gave him a good beating, refusing to even let it resist.
My ears were then filled with more and more howls. I had no idea where all these wild wolves were coming from, but they were coming at me from all directions.
I was beginning to run out of strength. There were much too many for me to hold off.
“Omar! Finish it already. I’m not sure how much longer I can hold on.”
My eyes were turned to Omar as I spoke, not realizing that a wild wolf was approaching me. He grabbed onto my arms, his black claws tearing open my flesh and wounding it. He had dug in so deep that my bones were exposed.
But I didn’t have time to look at the wound carefully. I had to turn around and knock the wolf unconscious.
Now, the air was filled with the smell of blood, which seemed to drive these wolves even crazier.
Omar caught a glimpse of me wincing in pain. He asked in concern, “Did you get injured?”
“It’s nothing serious. No big deal.” In order not to worry Omar, I had to lie.
I saw the gray wolf try to fight back again. He must have thought to spring up while Rufus’ attention was on me. But Omar had pressed down too tightly for him to be able to move. With one swift movement, Omar bit into the gray wolf’s abdomen.
The gray wolf howled in agony.
I was horrified by this scene, watching the gray wolf struggle in pain. He wriggled around, which was a mistake as doing so only gave Omar a clear view of his vulnerable neck. Instantly, Omar sank his sharp teeth into the flesh.
Omar stepped on the mangled wolf, a gloomy aura emitting from his body. Raising his head, he howled into the sky. The deep sound echoed into the ground, making it tremble slightly. The aura of a king was enough to suppress the other wolves.
