Flora's POV:

Geoffrey's dirty tricks infuriated me. If Warren hadn't pulled me from behind, I would've rushed at him and beat the living crap out of that man.

While I refused to believe that Geoffrey was really controlling Rufus, it was true that Rufus never showed up.

This made my heart sink.

Just then, Geoffrey's subordinate ran over in a panic.

"Alpha Geoffrey! Prince Rufus' room was empty. Our mission failed."

Geoffrey was visibly shocked. He grabbed his subordinate by the shoulders and shook him violently. "How could it be possible? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him? How could you fail me like this? Rufus should never have left that room!"

Fear written all over his face, the subordinate trembled and stammered, "B... But Prince Rufus wasn't in the room..."

I exploded into crazy laughter on the spot. "So this was your plan, Geoffrey?

Geoffrey let go of his subordinate and his domineering facade finally crumbled. He looked at me and Warren and pulled a long face. "I wanted to take my sweet time playing with you, but now, I've run out of time." "What's that supposed to mean?" I had a sinking feeling about this and grabbed Warren's arm subconsciously, trying to find a sense of security. A vicious smile played at Geoffrey's lips and he gestured a his soldiers to act. "Kill them."

Warren immediately stood in front of me, poised to fight anyone who came near us.

My heart sank to the pit of my stomach. It seemed that Geoffrey didn't care if he fell out with us.

I looked at the restless citizens in the distance. I knew that Geoffrey was now in such a hurry to deal with us not only because of Rufus, but also because he wanted to intimidate these citizens.

After all, what with everything that had happened recently, everyone was somewhat dissatisfied with Geoffrey's ruling method. In order to secure his position, Geoffrey needed to display his power to the people today by killing us.

The soldiers soon surrounded us. Warren and I fought tooth and nail, trying our best to break through the encirclement.

But we were outnumbered. It didn't take long before Warren and I were subdued.

Just then, several groups of werewolves rushed in from outside the gate. They all wore the same uniform as us.

Warren and I exchanged glances and guessed something.

In the blink of an eye, these soldiers soon surrounded Geoffrey.

Geoffrey looked around at his unexpected enemies, visibly confused. "What's going on?"

His men were also confused and momentarily paused. "They're not one of us."

"Isn't it obvious? They're soldiers from the imperial capital!" When Geoffrey realized what was going on, he kicked his subordinate angrily.

Soon, the imperial soldiers surrounded Geoffrey and his men. Several familiar figures approached us from the end of the line.

"It's Prince Rufus!" I screamed excitedly.

Warren's tight frown finally loosened and he showed a small smile. "I knew Prince Rufus wouldn't just sit and wait for death."

Rufus wasn't alone. Harry and John were with him.

I strode over excitedly and threw my arms around Harry and John. "Oh, my God! What the hell happened to you two? Didn't you go on a mission outside the city?"

With a smug smile on his face, Harry put his arm around my shoulder and said knowingly, "I knew you went on a secret mission the other day, yet you still tried to lie to me. Unbeknownst to you, we were also on a secret mission. In the end, we had to clean up your mess."

Warren also came over and hugged Harry for the first time, simultaneously swatting Harry's hand away from my shoulder. "Thank God you're back." Harry's eyes went as wide as saucers. "Oh, my God! What's gotten into you, Warren?"

Excited, Harry wanted to put his arm around my shoulder again, but Warren slapped it away once more.

"Possessive," Harry muttered under his breath begrudgingly, but he obediently withdrew his hand.

I didn't have the time to catch up with him. I turned to look at the tall figure amidst the crowd.

It was indeed Prince Rufus. He looked unhurt. That was great!
