I might not be completely wolfless now, but I had yet to do a complete transformation. My wolf had not shown up in my

head either.

The process had just begun before my body collapsed, then I went into heat and Callahan had to mark me.

It was not as if he had done that willingly and he would most probably want a strong werewolf by his side, not a girl who could not even properly awaken her wolf.

I had to stop dreaming about him and focus on connecting with my inner wolf. Partly, I think I had also asked him to mark. me because I did not want others to know I had failed at my first transformation.

I had already been treated as trash because of being a late bloomer and now if people learned that I unexpectedly awakened my wolf or tried to, when it was not even my birthday…I would become a laughing stock for everyone again.

I did not want that. Also, the fact that Callahan’s mark was hidden from everyone would give me time to properly connect with my wolf and then have better control of myself and my emotions if I ever went in heat again.

And a tiny part of me hoped that Callahan would be the one to quench my heat this time too.

1 shook my head for the millionth time and reprimanded myself for not being able to control my thoughts.

“Hey, where are you lost?” Drusilla asked, and I mumbled. “Nothing. So did you sleep well yesterday?”

Drusilla nodded her head and began talking about something random excitedly.

She seemed like a very nice person and she was the complete opposite of Callahan. While Callahan was blunt, rude, and bossy. Dru was chirpy, smiled a lot, and offered a pleasing company.

I could not even imagine how the two could be best friends with such opposite personalities.

She kept talking about the people she met at the ball while I listened to her. She was quickly turning out to be a friend I would like to keep for life.

We were sitting at a table as we saw the servants take off the setup, flowers, and arrangements from yesterday night.

I did not have much supervision to do, so I sat outside with her by a table, watching the surroundings while chatting with

her.
