The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)
Chapter 723 An Irresistible Force_____

Sylvia's POV:

From the darkness came a peal of muffled laughter. "Sylvia, is this the connection between our hearts and souls? The power of the bloodline is indeed indisputable."

"We are worlds apart. I belong to the werewolf race." I watched with my stern eyes as Noreen emerged out of the dark. I had expected this to happen and didn't intend to call for help. Because I knew it would be pointless.

"Are you denying your origin? The black witch bloodline is nothing to be ashamed of. If more, it's something you should be proud of." Noreen chuckled with pride and confidence. With a light clap of her hands, all the candles in the hall were extinguished. Seconds later, she clapped her hands again and the candles flared to life once more.

It seemed as if she was trying to impress me, but I just found her eagerness to show off so ridiculous.

I was rendered speechless upon seeing what she had done. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out what it was she was flaunting.

"You see that? The black witch bloodline is extremely strong, much stronger than that of the werewolf race." Noreen looked arrogant, as if she didn't understand me at all. "You don't feel proud of having such a powerful bloodline, but to hate and deny it... You are just so plain stupid."

A frown etched on my face as I asked in a gloomy tone, "What on earth are you trying to do?"

Noreen threw up her hands and answered innocently, "I just want you to accept your fate, Sylvia."

It sounded like I should be grateful for what happened to me.

I sneered, "Fate? If there is such a thing as fate, then it is your fate to die in my hands one day."

Noreen arched her eyebrows. Her lips curved into a smirk as if mocking at my innocence. "I like your naivety and arrogance. But you seem to have wrongly blamed all your misfortune on me." "Of course, you are the one to blame," I roared angrily. "You have done nothing but disrupt my life. It's you who killed my father!"

Noreen eyed me with fake pity. "Sylvia, don't you understand? Everything was destined. You come from a long line of witches. Your existence is ominous. The people you love and the ones who love you are bound to leave you someday. Both of your parents are the same. Rufus isn't any different from your mother."

I cast her a glare and didn't believe even a single word she said.

"You are the one behind all these. I will figure out a way to break the curses on Rufus."

After hearing this, Noreen gave me a sympathetic glance. "Sylvia, it's useless. This is the fate of a black witch. It's the price to pay for possessing such great power. There's no other way to solve it unless you cut ties with him. If there was really a way out, your mother wouldn't have chosen to erase Leonard's memory in the end."

Irritated by her words, I couldn't help raising my voice. "You are lying! There must be a way. You're just playing a trick to fool me."

"Do you think I would create a curse that even I couldn't break? Think about it, Sylvia!" Noreen glared at me with a sullen, sour face. A hint of annoyance was very much evident in her expression. "Be it Olivia and me, we have never seen our fathers since we were born. They have all become the nourishment of the black thorn for falling in love with a black witch! This is the price our race must pay for possessing the taboo power!"

"I don't believe it! You're lying!" I was about to lose it at this point. Perhaps it was because, deep down, I knew that what Noreen said was true.

I had been covertly trying to find a cure for a while now but to no avail.

The thorn on Rufus' back was still growing.

Upon realizing this, my core temperature dropped precipitously, and I felt a cold force surging into my body. This sensation was all too familiar.

I trembled crazily, and the white frost crept over my flesh at a visible speed.

The unbearable cold made me out of control.

Upon seeing this, Noreen's expression shifted drastically while her lips wiggled with a hint of alarm. She was obviously trying to say something to me, but I couldn't hear anything at the moment. Noreen grabbed my hand and shook it hard.

The uncontrollable force in my body slowed for a second. At this time, I could hear Noreen's restless voice.

"Stop it, Sylvia! The power in your body is getting out of control!"

Stop what?

Before I could even think about it, I felt like I was plunged back into the ice and snow abyss.
