34 A Wolf’s Habit

Xenia heard a distinct growl coming from behind her. That was her cue that the King was now in his wolf form, so she immediately turned around and gathered his clothes. 

Moving closer to him, she didn't know what came to her as she suddenly had the urge to pet his head, running her hands over his head. 

Another moment of silence, and there was another soothing growl that came from the man. She chuckled slightly, interpreting the sound as the King liking her decision to pat his head like that.

"Your Ma- I mean, My King… you look so adorable in your wolf form," she genuinely commented. "And so huggable as well." 

Before the King could let out another growl, she added, "Yeah I know. I'll be climbing onto your back now, My King. I'm not wasting time…"

Rolling her eyes, Xenia quickly climbed onto the King's back. As soon as she was settled, she patted him by his side; a signal that made the wolf begin to run.
