Found by the Lycan King by Natalie Winter

Chapter 119

Zenovia

I hated the way Callahan had a grip over himself, hated the way he would start talking about something right when we were kissing, and when I felt that he would devour me whole.

I also hated the way the hunger in his eyes would switch in an instant to mild intrigue. How could he have such control over himself while being so close to me, while kissing me?

I would not be even able to think of anything else other than the way his lips caressed my skin and the way his hands roamed over me.

Callahan put some more distance from me, stepping away and grabbing a towel to give his hands something to do.

I too tidied my clothes and hair and let my raging breathing return to normal. I tried to focus on the fact that after all this time, I would be finally getting some answers.

Based on our little ‘talk’, I could feel glad that he did feel something for me. At least, I knew he was not toying with my emotions or he would have forced himself upon me and tossed me away like a discarded tissue.

Callahan was the Lycan King so nobody would bat an eyelid if he did that. But he only touched me or devoured me when I asked for it, when I begged him to do it.

It both annoyed me and turned me on.

Letting out a huff, I tried to focus on the fact that Drusilla was going to share everything. I hoped she would and that Callahan would not find another way to stop me from doing what I wanted.

When Callahan was done, he only tilted his head and looked at the door, asking me to leave with him. I got the message and walked with him as he led me to his office. The walk was silent but I did not mind it as it gave me some time to come up with doubts and possible theories.

Drusilla was waiting for us in his office as Callahan pushed the door open. She had a pensive look on her face.

Drusilla was staring outside the window, thinking about something. She had a diary clutched in her hands and it looked like she had been chewing the base of the pencil.

Drusilla was wearing black jeans, a white crop top, and a black jacket. Her hair was open and like always she looked like she was ready to conquer the world while I looked like I got off a 12 hour flight.

She gave me a small smile as I walked in and waved at her.

“How are you?” I asked.

Drusilla replied, “I should be asking you that question.”

I shrugged, “I feel fine”

Callahan walked towards his table, giving me a wide berth.
