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 

train. 

I ignored her line and spoke to Elijah instead, “Yes, now that you are back we can race with each other.” 

Elijah let the bag slide down his shoulder and placed it on the couch. He then loosened his muscles as he went to sit down on the couch as well. 

“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.” 

From the corner of my eyes, I saw that Callahan had left with his file though Cynthia was still standing there, staring at me and Elijah. 

Apparently, she was not happy with the way I completely ignored her remark. 

“Hey El, you got the report from the west?” Cynthia suddenly asked and Elijah looked up at her. 

“Yup I did. I don’t fail at my tasks usually” He said cheekily and she smiled, “Very well. I just recalled that we had to see the report to discuss the treaties with Cal before he signed the papers? 

Elijah nodded, “Sure. I will just freshen up and join you guys in a while” 

“Great. And then you tell me all about your adventures” She added in a friendly tone and he nodded, “I’ll bore you to death” 

Cynthia laughed and left for Callahan’s office while I too said, “It is so good to have you back. I will go freshen up too 

I heard Elijah’s grunts as he cracked his knuckles in satisfaction and got up from the couch. 

“Yeah. I will try to leave the meeting quickly and join you for breakfast or lunch. Then you tell me all about your first shift. And mind you, you are not leaving any detail out” 

He added, poking a finger at me and I tried to smile. Elijah walked away after ruffling my hair and I wondered if I was ready to tell him everything. 

I could not tell him how his King sucked me dry and made me come by the lake or the way his lips devoured me, leaving me breathless and wanting for more. 

Nope, definitely not. 

had to get a grip on myself. So I took leave of Elijah and went up the stairs to freshen up as well. 

Thankfully, nobody made a fuss of seeing me wearing Callahan’s shirt. In fact, nobody had even noticed it until he pointed 

out. 

That only meant it was common for first time shifters to be guided or accompanied by someone senior and be offered

clothing after they shift back to their human form. 

Not that they would have faced as many difficulties as me to awaken their wolves. I tried to forget Cynthia’s gaze as she stared daggers at me and I stepped into my room. 

I was so tired and my bones hurt but I was also happy that I had finally found my wolf. And with Elijah around, it would be easy for me to tame her and not always faint upon shifting. 

That put a smile on my face as I went into the bathroom and took Callahan’s shirt off. His scent was lingering all over me and a small part of me almost did not want to let go of it. 

But I had to clean myself. Only now did I notice that my nails were chipped and covered in dirt. My hair looked all frizzy and tangled too. 

Gosh, I had been roaming around like this in front of everyone without a care of how I looked. I stepped in front of the mirror and noticed something else. 

My skin was bruised and a little red. And there were marks….bite marks. 

Most of them were over my thighs and around my collarbone and I was glad to have worn the shirt that covered everything. My hands brushed over those marks and heat flared up inside of me again. I had not even noticed them while he was roaming his mouth all over me. 

I turned around to see the mark that he had fussed about. And I noticed that it had changed again. 

At first, it had resembled a dagger and a moon but now I was not sure what to make of it. 

The mark had traveled down a little and now reached my thigh with swirling lines, some thick, some fine like a strand of 

hair. 

But most of it was unidentifiable to me. A small voice in my head, Thunder’s to be precise spoke, 

“At least he was not lying about it then” 

I jumped and almost let out a shriek. It would take some time getting used to hearing another voice in my head. 

“I thought you wanted to rest” I replied while grabbing a bottle of shower gel. 

“Who says you cannot talk while resting?” she asked. 

“I also did not know you were there when…we were… when I was… I trailed off and she chuckled. 

“I was trying to break free for a long time. I just could not. But I was definitely there” Thunder responded and I heard the tiredness in her voice.
