Chapter 231: Shifting Early

I felt my eyes go wide at Kat’s proposition.

“Really?” I asked quietly. “You could actually help me shift… today?”

Kat nodded with a smile on her face. “It’s easy,” she replied. “You could get it over with really quickly.”

I could feel my wolf reacting strongly to this. It had felt as though Mina was coming close to shifting for a while, ever since Edrick and I marked each other, but it still hadn’t happened. And maybe, just maybe… shifting could finally make all of this ambiguity stop.

Maybe if I shifted, I could actually be my own person again, and not a damsel in distress who needed a man to protect me.
