Chapter 16：Pink Embarrassment

No she-wolf has ever refused me before.

Even though I’m not interested in them, I know every girl I’ve ever come across has hoped to have a chance with me. I’m used to them throwing themselves at me–being completely, unabashedly shameless in their attempts to catch my eye.

Cynthia is the first to refuse me.

And she’s refused me more times than I can count at this point.

So when her response to my offer to join her in the shower is, “No, thank you, I should probably shower alone,” it gives me pause.

I stay neutral-faced, though, nodding curtly. “Of course. Enjoy your shower.”

“Thank you,” Cynthia says with a sweet smile.

I watch as she steps into the bathroom and closes the door behind her. What am I doing wrong? She trusts me, I know that much, but has she fallen for me yet? Am I not good enough? Has she begun to doubt me?

I need her to love me, or my plan will never work.

I chuckle under my breath. ‘True enough.’ Moo
