Found by the Lycan King

Chapter 126

Zenovia

Cynthia sat beside Drusilla in an awkward silence as Callahan and Matteo began talking about pack stuff.

Meanwhile, I and Drusilla focused on the food. She kept grinning at me from time to time and I tried not to chuckle.

I whispered to her. “I did not know you hated her.”

Drusilla shrugged, “I don’t like gold diggers and anybody with even a shred of sanity can see that she is the poster girl for that.”

Drusilla only tried to keep her voice down, but I knew she was not making any real effort at hiding it.

“What happened to ‘dont fall for Callahan”?” I asked her, recalling how she asked me several times to not harbor any feelings for her best friend.

“My visions told me it would not be good for you. And I don’t need them to tell me what an arse he is. I have known him since childhood. Though, don’t keep too high hopes.”

She suggested and returned to finishing the food off her plate.

I giggled. Did she indirectly permit me to fall in love with Calahan? Or maybe she was okay if I ogled at him but kept my distance?

I was unclear on that but I was happy she did not worry about me or my heart that much. Now, if only her best friend stopped pushing me away, it would be so nice.

However, he was the least bothered by my feelings.

My gaze flicked to Callahan. “But the Lycan King does not seem to mind her.”

He was not blind enough to see how she would always try to woo him. But I could not, for the life of me, understand why he allowed to be so close to himself.

He was the Lycan King, for Goddess sake, could he not just shun her or something?
