Chapter 72: Love at First Sight

Moana, My eyes widened when I saw Edrick, but at the same time, my body relaxed knowing that he was here to — hopefully — help us. He glanced over at me, but clearly didn’t want anyone to know we were together, and walked up to the desk.

“Is there a problem here?” he asked the receptionist.

I couldn’t make out exactly what was being said to the receptionist, but she seemed as though she was being reprimanded — and rightfully so, in my opinion. Just because it was policy to serve humans after werewolves didn’t mean that it was morally right to treat humans like inferiors.
