I entered the room with light steps. It smelled like apples were surrounding me, and they must have been because there were actual apple trees in large pots around the room. There were two couches, one green and one red, in the middle with a coffee table between them.
On the green couch, the Luna of Rouke sat. Her face lit up when she saw me, but she didn’t say a word. I took the chance to smile and walked carefully into the room. I hoped my walk looked noble enough in front of this Luna.
This was a real Luna. She must have come from a family of real noble shifters, and here I was strutting in front of her, acting like I was the one in charge.
No. I was in charge.
I breathed out a small breath and sat down on the red couch. It felt soft and bouncy against my bottom. A waiter came forward and set down a cup of tea for me. The teacup was a powdery pink with a swirling amber tea inside.
