Celeste POV
I froze in mortification as I slowly turned around to face Beta Liam, acutely aware of how I must look.
My clothes were torn in several places from my emergency shift, dirt smudged across my skin, and my hair was a tangled mess from running through the forest. But it wasn't just my disheveled appearance that made my cheeks burn with embarrassment – it was the way Liam's dark eyes flickered up and down my body, taking in every detail.
Nakedness had never been an issue for werewolves. We shifted so frequently that seeing each other without clothes was as natural as breathing. I'd seen hundreds of naked pack members over the years, and they'd seen me. It was just part of our nature, nothing to be shy about.
