Chapter 14.

~Selene~

The water was still and the closer I looked, I could see movement in the water. Tiny fish were swimming around in it, you had to look close to see them.

“Selene, why don’t you shift and go for a run, we have clothes in the trunk in case you want to change afterward,” I looked at the king who had come up to us. I scanned his face to see if he was joking but it didn’t seem as though he was. I looked at Meredith and then at Samuel, all of them were waiting for an answer. As a werewolf, for those who had gained their wolves, they didn’t need to be asked twice to shift and run around in a place like this.

It was every wolf's playground, the woods reached for miles on end and you could run for hours letting the wind brush against your fur, letting your paws feel the grass, the sticks, and the stones and hills.

But I couldn’t understand how they thought I had a wolf.

“I- I don’t have a wolf, I’m not eighteen yet,”

They looked at me like I was a ghost, the pity in their eyes
