I put the tray on top of the desk that was beside my bed carefully and burped

When I got back to my room from Grey's, I took a quick trip to the bathroom and when I got out I saw a tray full of delicious foods on top of the bed. Without hesitation, I quickly ate the food with a smile

I looked around, trying to find something that I can do to entertain myself but there was nothing. I stood up and walked around the room slowly, examining it

"What are you doing?" I jumped when I heard a voice behind me. I quickly turned around and saw Lily sitting on my bed

Was it weird that I actually feel relieved and happy that she's here? I barely know this girl

I didn't stop the smile that formed on my face which earned a wider smile from her. Her eyes twinkled when she saw me smile "You're actually happy to see me?" She asked, surprised. I nod "It's killing me to be alone in this room with nothing to do" I said making her laugh. She stood up and quickly hugged me tightly "I'm so sorry, Alex" She whispered sincerely "I told you I was going to handle Grey but I didn't know he was in your room waiting for you when we got back. He must've masked his scent because I would've smelled him and knew immediately that he was in your room" She explained quickly looking at me with sad eyes "Cole told me that Grey was waiting for me inside the cellar and when I got there someone locked me inside" She said, eyes shining with anger "My asshole brother and his bestfriend set me up"

My eyes widened "They locked you inside the cellar?" I can't believe Grey would lock his own sister inside that dark place. She nod like it didn't hurt her feelings "He didn't lock me inside the cellar that they locked you up though" She said "They locked me up in Cellar A" My eyebrows scrunched in confusion "Cellar A are for the pack members who have done something that made the Alpha mad. Disobeyed him and his orders, disrespected him or did something that could've harmed our pack" She explained "It's not that bad in there. Not as bad as Cellar B and C" She said

"What's Cellar B?" I asked curiously "Cellar B is the cellar that you were locked up in" She said making the bad memories enter my mind "It's actually for torturing" I felt my face go pale "Werewolves!" She quickly said "Torturing werewolves who have done major offense" I nod, understanding. I chewed on my bottom lip, trying to get rid of the bad memories that were haunting me

"Cellar C?" I asked. She looked at me for a moment, thinking if she should tell me "Let's just say it's a cellar that can hold and lock up any werewolf" She said slowly, carefully choosing her words "It's made for the strongest and fastest werewolves out there" I nod, not pushing any further "Does Grey know you're here?" She scoffed and rolled her eyes "He doesn't have to" She said, annoyed

"But he might get mad and lock you up again.." I said carefully "I don't really care" Lily said, shrugging "We're not really doing anything wrong right? We're just two normal girls talking and gossiping" She said with a girly smile

Normal

This was far from normal

"So...." She said making me look at her "Have you ever had a boyfriend?" She said, smiling sheepishly at me

...

Lily burst out laughing after telling her the story of me and my so called friends back in Canada "I can't believe she would do that!" She said with wide eyes but the wide smile on her face never disappeared "My friends were kind of...." I stopped trying to think of the nicest word that can explain them
