Chapter 44
“If you want I can clear the misunderstanding King Cahan has about you. It was I who kept you busy
with my silly stuff.”
I spoke but Elijah shook his head.
“There is no need for that, really. It is okay. I know Cal thinks good about me so he has the right to be
angry with me.”
“Are you sure?” I asked and Elijah nodded, “Yeah, you are getting too worked up.”
I did not want to talk further about him so I only replied, “About my failed transformation, can you help
me a bit?”
I asked in a sincere voice and Elijah’s face immediately brightened.
“What about it?”
I bit my lip nervously, “Uh, the way we raced together today. I feel if somebody would guide me to train
and to strengthen my body, I will be better at handling the next shifting.”
“Ahh, so that is why you were running around in the dark of the night?” He asked and I did a fake
grumble.
“Hey, I did not run in the middle of the night, okay? I was just unsure of what to do next.” I replied and
he chuckled.
“Yes. I will definitely help you with your training. Our pack has many pups who have recently shifted.
Your shifting was quite unexpected, to be honest.”
I nervously chewed on my lip. “Yes, I am also not sure how that happened. But I want to be prepared
for the next full moon. So, I have one month to train myself.”
Elijah ced a hand on my shoulder, “Don’t be too harsh on yourself. There is a full moon every
month.”
He tried to cheer me up but then I muttered under my breath, “The sooner I learn how to be a wolf, the
better, I do not want to get yelled at for nothing”
“Ohe on, I know him. He is a nice guy.”
I snorted, “Nice, really?”
Elijah replied, “Don’t you think so? He gave you a separate room, and asked the best doctors to care
for you. Even helped you when you were alone in the forest.”
“Only because he needs me for this anchor stuff that none of you are telling me more about,” I said and
before he could say another word. I heard a voice.
“Ouch, can you not stand in the middle of the door?”
I looked behind Elijah to see Drusi rubbing her forehead and ring at Cahan who merely
shrugged at her.
When had he even arrived? I wondered while he replied, “If you look up instead of your phone while
walking, you will see that you walked into a wall, not the door.”
Drusi rolled her eyes at him and looked at Elijah and me. “Hey, guys.”
Both of us waved at her and she came to talk to us, leaving Cahan standing by the door. He raised
an eyebrow but did not say anything.
She came towards Elijah and said, “El, can you give me the number of that car washing center? I
wanted them to pick my car up but I lost contact”
Elijah immediately pulled out his phone and sent her a text message with the number while I only
watched.
“Hey, what about you?” He suddenly asked.
“Me? I dont have a car to wash” I answered and he booped my nose yfully.
Your mobile. Don’t you have one?”
I shook my head. “I was never allowed to have one.”
Drusi‘ eyes went wide, “Allowed? Why do you need anybody’s permission to have a mobile?”
I shrugged, “I was an omega so I was not allowed many perks.”
Drusi came near me and ced her hands on my back as if embracing me. “That is nonsense. Wait,
how about this? Let me buy you one.””
I shook my head, “No. I dont see the need to have one. I lived without a phone so far either way?
But she was persistent.
19-19
“No, it is not okay. We need to stay in touch with you and having a mobile in these modern times is a
necessity.”
Drusi suddenly came up with an idea, “Cal, can we take her along with us?”

Cahan was busy doing something on his phone but looked up when she mentioned me.
And it was then that he finally looked at me. It had only been a day that he had not looked me in the
eye but it felt like it had been years.
His golden eyes looked into mine and a lot of emotions erupted within me at once. But his gaze did not
stay on me for long- He looked away just after a second and I felt all my hopes and feelings crumble.
Why did I suddenly feel him to be an important part of my life?
“No, it should be only us, you know that.” He said and his blunt rejection hurt me a little.
Drusi ced a hand beneath my chin, “Ohe on. Look at the poor girl. She just had her first shift.
I can send her important stuff directly without having toe meet her in person every time.”
“What important stuff?” I asked and Drusi only mumbled, “I mean, girl stuff, you know”
Cahan shrugged and walked outside the door, “If you are noting, I will go alone
“Wait,” Drusi said and dragged me along with her.
Cahan had climbed down the front steps of the porch while Drusi dragged me and said in a loud
voice
“She ising with us. I just asked the car guy to pick up my car from here. I don’t have a car to take
her to a shop now.”
Cahan pinched the bridge of his nose, “Then get her the phone tomorrow. What is the big deal about
it?”
I felt very bad with the way Cahan was suddenly treating me and I tried to speak to Drusi.
“There is no need for it, Dru. You can go to your meeting. I told you I don’t need a phone”
Meanwhile, Elijah who was silent all this time, came up with an idea.
“Hey, I have an idea. I can take her to a shop with me and get her a mobile and a sim card. You guys
can go to your meeting wherever that is.”
Drusi perked up at that. “Oh, that is great. Well, then that is settled.”
But Cahan suddenly interjected, “El, I had asked you to do something.”
Elijah nodded his head vigorously, “I know, King. The task will bepleted today itself and then I will
take Zen outside.” Elijah suggested but apparently Cahan did not seem happy. At that same
moment, Drusi’s phone beeped and she
checked it.
“Oh shoot. I totally forgot I had to go to the parlor today. I had booked in advance.”
Cahan rolled his eyes, “You cannot be serious now, Dru. This meeting is important.”
Drusi quickly typed something on her mobile and was done.
“See. I just messaged them to change the meeting to ater date. They agreed too.
Cahan was apparently done with their stupid behavior so he just muttered.
“You know what? I will go to my office and get that filepleted.”
He had begun walking outside but Drusi stopped in front of him.
“No, you are not going in. Just work work all day. Go outside, step in the sun a little.”
Cahan smirked, “What am I? A vampire?”
Drusi rolled her eyes, “You know what? I will get Elijah to drop me to the parlor while you go get the
mobile for Zenovia.” “What?” I blurted out and then quickly bit my lip but apparently the shock and
unwillingness were evident in my voice. “Yes, she is going to help you. I noticed how you both are not
even talking to each other from the past half an hour that we
four are with each other.”
King Cahan did not reply but he simply climbed up the stairs and went in through the door.
“Cal, please. You know why I am doing this.”
Cahan dropped his shoulders and looked at her miserably. “I really don’t see the need for this, Dru
And the way he was showing his difort and absolute disinterest in doing anything for me was
irking me,
“Drusi, I do not need anything. I will go to my room and get some sleep” I said because I did not want
to hear Cahan keep Boding reasons to not be around me any longer.
It was hurting me and I had no clue what I had done for him to suddenly be so aloof
Even Elijah turned around with me and we both entered the mansion. I said, “We can discuss my
training regime after you finish your work. I need some guidance”
Elijah nodded his head and replied, “Give me two hours. I will also detail a diet n for you and create
a training schedule for you.”
I smiled in delight. “You are the best”
From the corner of my eyes, I saw that Drusi had walked in too and she began chatting with Elijah.
He looked at me with a soft smile and mouthed “No problem before heading in the opposite direction
with her.
And, I decided to head towards my room but then a voice called out to me.
“Stop”
I turned around to see Cahan ring at me. “Get inside the car. Now!”
