Chapter 201: About To Wake Up

Rufus’ POV:
The gray wolf turned its head and scanned the room, pouncing onto Ferrill all of a sudden.
Ferrill was so frightened that he fainted on the spot. “Owoo!” The gray wolf howled and patted Ferrill’s
mouth with its paw. It must have patted with enough strength to wake Ferrill up again. But before Ferrill
could even completely open his eyes, he saw the gray wolf inches away from his face and gasped in
horror. His eyelids twitched two times before losing consciousness yet again. “Owoo!”

The gray wolf then turned to me. It pawed at Ferrill’s mouth repeatedly. I was able to understand what it
was trying to say. I plucked out a leaf from the plant and stuffed it into my mouth, spreading a bitter
taste on my tongue.

“Prince Rufus, no! We still don’t know what that plant can really do!” An old doctor on the side was
horrified and tried to stop me. “If something bad happens to you, what are we going to tell the lycan
king?”

Ignoring him, I continued to chew the leaf and then bent down to transfer it into Sylvia’s mouth carefully.
Sylvia’s lips were very pale now. Because she was still unconscious, she didn’t swallow it, but at least
the chewed leaf managed to stay in her mouth.
“Please, Sylvia. Swallow.” I softly begged, but she didn’t move.
I gently poured some water into her mouth. The water eventually spilled out, but I hoped it could help
her swallow the leaf a little. By the time I had repeated this process several times, only a small root of
the plant was left. After hesitating, I decided to chew on the last of the plant and apply it on Sylvia’s
wound which had turned black.
I calmed down a little bit after that and held Sylvia’s hand, sitting on the side of her bed. I was so
anxious that it felt like my heart was rising up to my throat, but Sylvia was still motionless on her bed.

“Why hasn’t anything happened yet?” I glared at the gray wolf, who was sat at the edge of the bed.
However, it ignored me and just lay on its stomach. It didn’t seem to want to talk to me anymore.



“No medicine takes effect that quickly. Just wait a little longer. As long as it doesn’t cause any other
side effects, it should be fine.” The old doctor handed me a glass of water.

“You haven’t slept all this time. Why don’t you get some rest first? We can keep an eye on Miss Todd
for you.” I gratefully took the glass of water.

“No, thank you. I will stay with her.”

“You’re going to get sick.” I pursed my lips stubbornly, not saying anything. Helplessly, the doctor
sighed.

“Fine. We’ll be around. If you need anything, feel free to call us.”

With that, the old doctor called for someone to move Ferrill to a safe place until he could come back to
his senses. The gray wolf quickly glanced at me and snorted, and then turned its big head away. This
was the second time today it had shown disdain towards me. I didn’t really care much about it. I just
held Sylvia’s hand and gently squeezed it, praying that she would wake up soon. Time passed, and
slowly, her hand grew warm. When I felt the change in her temperature, I nudged the gray wolf who
was just about to fall asleep.

“She’s getting warm!” Instantly, the gray wolf jumped up, wide awake, and came closer. Sylvia’s face
was no longer as pale as it was. I carefully rolled up her sleeved. The deathly black color on her wound
had begun to fade. . Reaching up, I pushed the call button at the bed’s headboard. The old doctor
came back in no time and checked on Sylvia, only to be pleasantly surprise. “How impressive. This
unknown herb actually worked! Her pulse and heartbeat have normalized. Miss Todd is definitely
getting better. She should wake up soon!”

All of a sudden, Sylvia’s fingers and eyelids twitched slightly. Holding my breath, I stared at her. But just
as Sylvia was about to open her eyes, the gray wolf jumped up and stood in front of her, giving me only



a full view of its furry behind.
