The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)
Chapter 407 The Kidult

Leonard's POV:

Sylvia remained silent. Her expressionless face seemed quite frightening.

She was a stubborn girl, and I had to coax her.

I cleared my throat and said, "You know, I could have saved you even if you couldn't manage to use your lycan power."

Sylvia glanced at me, her face softening a little. But she bit her lip and continued to remain silent.

I tried my best to force a smile at her because her reaction seemed to frighten me. "How could I let you get injured? I even asked Owen to wait downstairs and protect you. But I don't know where he has gone to."

"Really?" Sylvia asked, cocking her head.

"Yes." I nodded, smiling.

Sylvia's chest puffed with a snort. However, she slowly withdrew her fangs and wolf claws.

I closed my eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. Coaxing the girl seemed like an easy task. If it were Alina, she would have broken down, crying.

I still remembered that time when my leopard had bitten Alina's dog to death. She had cried for two days straight. It baffled me that such a tiny girl could generate that many tears. Later, I had no choice but to find a similar dog for her.

"You mean... Was that lycan power?"

Sylvia's voice snapped me back to reality. Her eyes widened as she looked at her hands. She looked surprised yet curious.

My heart softened. Regardless of how strong and arrogant Sylvia looked, she was just a simple girl. The awe on her innocent face looked pure.

"How did you feel when you summoned all your strength and let the lycan power burst out of you?" I asked gently.

Sylvia frowned and thought for a while. "Well, my body suddenly grew light, and I felt a light force burst out of my body."

I smiled. "That's right. Remember that feeling. When you get familiar with it, you will eventually be able to control your power."

Sylvia nodded with a puzzled look on her face. It was her first time, and it would take a while to get familiar with it.

Just then, Owen hurriedly ran over to me. He wasn't even wearing a coat.

"Where the hell have you been?" I couldn't hold back my anger. "An accident almost occurred, you know!"

I wanted to say that Sylvia almost died, but noticing her staring at me, I quickly changed my words.

Owen walked toward me, his poker face softening a little. He looked aggrieved. "I went to the bathroom and forgot to take my coat." With that, he leaned closer and whispered in my ear, "Didn't you say that you would give me a signal before pushing her down?" That was when it dawned on me. I had completely forgotten about the secret signal.

I guiltily coughed and looked away. "Forget it. Thankfully everything is fine now."

Owen stood beside me and looked at Sylvia. "She looks horrible. It looks like you've tortured her."

'Gosh, why is he saying that aloud? Does he want to get me in trouble?'

"By the way, I just got the news that Edwin was coming. He should be at the royal palace any time now," Owen added.

I frowned, feeling a little surprised. "Didn't I ask him to look after the pack? Why is he coming?" "He probably heard that you had postponed your return to the pack and is worried about your health. I think he is here to check on you." Owen smiled. "Edwin is airsick, so instead of taking the plane, he drove here. Took him several days to get here."

I couldn't help but laugh. "Then, you better go and pick him up. Otherwise, he will have something to complain again."

Owen nodded. Then, his eyes widened as if something had occurred to him. He turned to Sylvia and said, "I just met Prince Rufus. He wanted me to tell you that he'd be waiting in the training ground for you after your class. He has something important to tell you."

Considering it was something important, I dismissed Sylvia at once.
