Trevor's POV
Subtly, the party came to a close, with the music dying down, and the people beginning to leave to their places. I could count the number of people that were present.
Triton's expression looked more worried since our conversation. He hadn't told me what his problem was, and it unsettled me.
"Trevor, we're going to solve everything together." Maria whispered to me as her palm cupped my face.
I smiled without forcing it. "I know we would."
A thought settled in my mind. Even though I had been cast out of my pack, I was still aware of the pack rules and pack politics. If Maria doesn't have a wolf, she may not be ordained as alpha and leader of her pack.
I slipped my palm into hers and asked. "Are there any signs of your wolf returning?"
She looked in a particular direction towards the floor. I followed her gaze, but was met with nothing.
She smiled and pointed at an empty space. "My wolf is right there."
