Capítulo 459: Alone

KALLE

They got to the suite and somehow Kalle convinced Shaw that even if Elia was in her human form, she was likely to shift back into her beast if she saw him, so he had to wait outside for her to check which form Elia was currently in.

Kalle breathed a sigh of relief when she eased the bedroom door open and saw the large, dark shadow of the lioness sprawled on the massive bed. Elia's beast began a low, puttering growl. She could probably smell Shaw on Kalle.

"Don't worry," she whispered. "I'll… I'll come back soon. He won't be here. Just rest." Then she closed the door and headed back out to the hallway

"No, she's still her beast," she said, trying to sound as if she were sorry about it. "But I'll keep this close and as soon as she changes, I'll give it to her."

"How will you convince her to take it?" Shaw asked in that strange monotone.
