The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 807

Sylvia's POV:

I swayed freely in front of Rufus, holding the purple crystal ball in my palm. "Look, I spent the whole afternoon making this. I was waiting for you to come back so you could see it."

Rufus asked in surprise, "You made it that quick? How well did that go?"

"I don't know. I haven't tested it out yet." I was giddy with excitement. If I succeed, I could learn my mother's love story with Leonard. Oh, right, I totally forgot that Leonard had lost his memory regarding that part, so he didn't remember my mother.

Thinking of this, I felt a twinge of disappointment.

Rufus noticed the change in my mood, so he came over and gave me a big hug. "What's wrong?"

I shook my head. "Nothing, it's okay. Let's see if the crystal ball works."

As I spoke, I dripped a drop of my blood onto the crystal ball. Then I closed my eyes and mobilized the strength in my body. While chanting the spell, I thought of Leonard in my mind.

After a while, the crystal ball began emitting intense heat and kept shaking.

"It works!" exclaimed Rufus.

I opened my eyes immediately. The crystal ball showed a likeness of Leonard, just as I had predicted.

The young Leonard was attractive and full of life.

"Your eyes and brows look just like Leonard's when he was young." Rufus suddenly shifted his gaze at me.

With his remark, I touched my eyebrows subconsciously.

"And your eyes are all dark green."

I smiled bitterly. "But I never once suspected that he was my father."

Despite their many disagreements and even a few fights, Alina had always been important to Leonard.

Even I realized that Leonard faced a predicament of his own. Alina was his beloved daughter. No father was willing to let his daughter marry into another pack far away from home. If he could help it, he definitely would have wanted his daughter to stay with him.

However, Alina's ambition was too evident. Staying in the pack might bring endless trouble and perhaps even danger to Alina herself.

Everything Leonard had done was all for the betterment of Alina's life, but he didn't have the chance to see it.

"Like my father, Leonard had a rough demeanor but a gentle heart inside." Rufus sighed.

"Yes."

Two people with similar temperament could become good friends. That was the case for Leonard and Ethan. The difference was that sometimes, Ethan was more disinterested and impersonal. It was always black and white for him, and he carried that attitude into his reign.

This was what it took to be a well-respected king.
