Dancing had never felt so nice or exhilarating. I seldom danced and it would mostly be in closed doors if I was feeling particularly happy.

But I would have never imagined that Callahan would show up to the ball or that he would even ask me for a dance.

My gaze fitted to Cynthia, who was staring daggers at me. She had been trying so hard to make Callahan only focus on him, but somehow his gaze had found me

“Sorry.” I mumbled, but he shook his head.

“No need to be. Plus, I know you dance very well when you are not dressed in a flowy gown. A towel suits you more.”

My eyes went wide at that and Callahan grinned as he narled me once again before slamming my body upon his.

I gasped due to the unexpected move and lost my balance, but his hands immediately snaked around my waist, traveling up my back to hold me in place

My breathing was labored, and I struggled to stand straight. Callahan raised an eyebrow, “Looks like you need a break.”

I smiled and tried to lude how my knees were shaky, not because of the dance, but because of having him so close to me.

Every time he touched me, it sent sparks all over my skin, tingling down to my core

I needed to step away from him to recall that this was a dream, an illusion. It was a mate ball and he would never choose a wolfless girl like me

Thus, I gave him a weak smule and headed towards a nearby table to sit and relax. Seeing that Callahan was finally free, a few imore girls approached to dance with hum, but he shook his head and looked at me once to check if I am okay.
