Chapter 100

Zenovia

For a moment nobody said a word. Everybody’s eyes returned to me and I was glad that the shirt was big enough for me to not feel as if I was walking around naked.

Callahan’s words made a delicious shiver run up my spine with the way he said it. His gaze flitted to me as if daring me to rebuke his claims.

But I was too busy fighting the emotions swirling inside of me. I could still feel his hands on me and that heated gaze when he had kissed me.

I slowly turned to Elijah who blinked and then replied, “Oh yes, King. Glad that you were around for her shifting.”

I looked down at the floor when I could not keep looking at those golden eyes anymore. But Elijah seemed oblivious to our wordless talk.

“Now you can train faster and soon you can outrun me in a race.

Elijah cheered me up as Cynthia suddenly jumped in the conversation.

“Oh, that is great. She awakened her wolf. Now, I don’t have to hold back while training with her.”

I looked up to see her smiling at me, all too sweetly.

Why was she butting in again? This was my moment of happiness and I did not want to even think about being with her to

“Not right away. Let me eat something and get a shower first.”

I smiled at him and folded my hands upon my chest, “Why? Are you afraid of me?”

Elijah grinned at me and I saw his eyes dance in excitement. “Ooh, the kitty got claws.”

I laughed and replied, “you can rest for today if you want. I am in no hurry to defeat you.”
