Chapter 1263 Recounting The Past
(Crystal’s POV)
“Yeah, it wasn’t until this moment that I felt my soul at the right place.”
I rubbed Rufus’ chest with my cheek and said in a small voice, “That was what I was most afraid of— that you’d discover my scent. When I first came to the imperial capital, I used a lot of perfume, which practically suffocated me.”
Hearing that, Rufus burst into laughter. “No wonder! When I first saw you, I could smell your strong perfume even from a distance. I was wondering why you used more than ten kinds of perfume.”
I laughed and slapped him on the shoulder playfully. “It’s all your fault! You’re just too scheming. I had to be vigilant, or else you would’ve found out right away.”

Rufus caught my balled-up fist and k*issed it, whispering, “You’re amazing. At least you were able to hide it from me until now.”
I rolled my eyes. Resting one of my l*egs on top of his waist, I continued, “If you didn’t tell me what you discovered today, I might’ve really left, you know?”
“No matter where you go, I’ll track you down and drag you back. I’ll lock you up if I have to,” Rufus said seriously, as if he was really going to do so.
Indeed, Rufus had locked me up in the past. I was afraid that he would do it again, so I comforted him immediately. “Don’t worry. Since we’ve talked things through, I won’t leave again. Even if you try to drive me away, I won’t leave.” novelbin
Then I changed the topic. “Aren’t you curious about your curse?”
“Yeah, tell me more about it.”
After pecking me on the forehead, Rufus settled down and listened to what I had to say.
I told him everything from the start.
For the first time in years, I was finally able to share about all the pent-up fear and loneliness I had in me.
“I’m sorry, Rufus. I didn’t want to leave you or erase your memory, but that was the only solution at that time. And I’m sorry for keeping the children a secret from you.” I took Rufus’ h*and and k*issed his f*ingers gently. “I can’t help you regain your memory, so I’ll just tell you whatever you want to know about the past.”
Speaking of this, I smiled and added, “I’m afraid I can’t tell you everything in just one night, but that’s fine. Just think of it as a bedtime story for the next few days.”
Rufus pinched my nose and said dotingly, “I don’t need to know the past. We can start over.”
I looked at him in pleasant surprise. His words cheered me up. Patting him on the chest, I cleared my throat and said playfully, “In that case, let’s introduce ourselves.”
Before he could protest, I stretched out my h*and and said, “Hi, my name’s Crystal, and I’m your mate. Nice to meet you.”
After saying that, I grinned at him wickedly. “And I’m the only one who knows just how ticklish you are.”
Rufus was amused. He obliged in my little game and said, “Nice to meet you, my lovely Princess Crystal. My name is Rufus. I’m the werewolf who loves you the most. My aim is to protect you, my dear princess, with all my might.”
I laughed. I pinched his cheek and said, “I like the sound of that. Say more nice things.”
Rufus hugged me and whispered a lot of sweet words into my ears, which made me feel at home and cozy.
After playing around a little, I asked about the children.
Rufus stopped laughing and said seriously, “Beryl hasn’t woken up yet, but don’t worry. My people are taking care of her. She’ll be fine. Besides, Laura’s with her.”
I felt worried. “Why hasn’t she woken up yet?”
Rufus sighed. “The doctor has checked her several times and confirmed that there is nothing wrong with her. She has to be observed for two more days. If she doesn’t wake up, she’ll need to undergo a more thorough examination.”
I nodded in agreement. I longed to see the kids, but it wasn’t convenient to go there in the middle of the night. I had to wait until tomorrow.
When Rufus and I were about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door.
A guard outside reported, “My King, Beryl is awake.”
