Everyone resumed what they were doing.

I followed Luna's instructions and arrived at a beautiful rose garden. The scent was incredible.

— It's so beautiful here, Chloe! — Rhea exclaimed in my head.

— Yes. Yes, — I thought, as I looked around looking for a place to take off my clothes in secret, so no one would see me naked.

Being a wolf, you should get used to people seeing you without clothes all the time. It's normal, since we have to be naked to transform.

But I wasn't ready for that yet.

I walked around the yard until I reached the edge of the forest. I took a quick look behind me and ran to the biggest oak tree I could find.

I took off and folded my clothes carefully, then put them in a small squirrel hole, covering them with a layer of dry leaves.

I mentally prepared myself for the excruciating pain I felt last time, but this time it was bearable. Sooner than I imagined, I was in my wolf form.

— Very good, Chloe! You're starting to get the hang of it. — Rhea praised me.
