Chapter 75

I turned around so fast that I thought I would break my neck. And I was relieved to see Drusilla come walking through the

main entrance.

I sagged in relief and muttered, “I was beginning to think that you had left me for good”

Drusilla pushed her hands into the pockets of her pants and gave me a smug look. “Not in this life, at least”

I shook my head and then she let go of her earlier attitude and came running towards me. I pulled her into a hug as she patted me on my back.

“Mr. Lycan King, I have some news for you”

I went rigid at that. Drusilla had been gone for a long time, looking for a solution to break my curse while I managed the kingdom and the pack.

“We can talk about it later. Right now I am ravenous”

She muttered and dragged me to the dining table.

“Maria!!” Dru shouted and Maria came outside the kitchen again, smiling at her. “Just right in time for lunch”

“Isn’t it a bit early for lunch?” I asked, but my best friend ignored me.

Drusilla gave her a bright smile, and we walked towards the dining table. I was not really in the mood to eat, but with her around, I would force some food down my throat.

Drusilla was the one person outside of my pack that I completely trusted and knew that she would never, ever betray my

trust.

My pack and the other alphas were honor bound to save me, but she wasn’t. So I felt a different kind of ease with her.

While we both made our way towards the dining table, I chatted with her.

“How was your journey?”

Drusilla replied, “A little tiring and I am not sure if it was as rewarding as I hoped it to be”

She tried to hide her disappointment, but I only gave her a reassuring smile.

“We still have time, don’t worry”

While we approached the dining table, Cynthia stepped out of the gym. She saw us and waved at Dru.

“Hey, nice to see you again”

Drusilla gave her a curt smile. “Hey”

Cynthia then looked at me. “Are you done with training for today? We barely started”

She looked hopefully at me but I shook my head. “We will continue tomorrow. And you still have that file to read through”
