Chapter 30

“You you are going through the shifting. The first shift, especially for late bloomers, is always painful. But it will barely last for it the longer you try to deny it. Accept the pain, embrace it, and tell your wolf you are eager to meet her.”

“What?” I asked in shock but he only replied, “Do it” and then added under his breath, “You are a warrior, prove it.”

Something about the way he said those words gave me a newfound confidence. I dug my hands into the soil, yanking off the grass and plants as iny fingers sunk into the hard ground.

He said, but I could only nod my head in response.

“Focus on the fact that you are going to meet your wolf soon. Focus on that. Endure the pain. It will go away. soon.

He said, but it was easier said than done.

I rolled on the forest floor through the grass and tried to get up but my knees felt weak and I slumped back to the ground again.

My breathing was labored, and I was feeling nervous and annoyed. Callahan put a hand on my back to calm me and spoke in

a calm voice.

“You are strong. Zenovia. You can do it. When you shift, you want to be comfortable. And your dress is a bit tight.”

He tried to help me but I let out a scream. I just wanted him to detach my bones from my body because every single one of them was hurting.

Callahan took a pause and replied, “There is not much I can do. Perhaps, your clothing is restricting your wolf. Do you want me to take it off?”

I could not even think of decency at this moment. All of my mind was focused on wanting to get rid of the pain.

So, I simply screamed. “Do it”

Callahan fumbled a bit but his hands found the hook of the dress and the zipper and pulled it down, stopping at the waist where the zipper ended.

I immediately felt the cold air brush my skin and the pain alleviated a bit. I was feeling feverish and was sweating so the cool air helped a bit.

“Take it off” I screamed and he pulled it off my legs as I writhed on the ground, covering myself in mud.
