“If this was astronomy…” “But it isn’t,” Fenris said, turning me away from the table. “And you will get it, but you have to give yourself a break. You must be hungry by now. After we eat and clean up, you’ll feel better, and perhaps all of this will make more sense.” I turned over my shoulder to look at him. We’d eaten at Kal’s home, but that was hours ago, and now that he’d mentioned it…yeah, I could definitely use a shower. The longer I thought about it, the more I saw how wild I must look. I’d been stuck as a wolf for days and days. When I was engaged to Ben, I was careful to be pristine, not a hair out of place. My legs were always smooth, and everything was always trimmed. If I got a zit, I zapped it, and even though I didn’t usually wear makeup, I made sure I was always cleaned up.
