My Beautiful Messed Up Life (Slowly Editing)

Chapter 28: Lucian

[EDITED]

LuLu's POV

I had just pulled up to the Pack House. and got out of the car. I walked carefully up the gravelled path up to the double oak doors that stretched out above me. I reached for the lion knocker and gave it a gentle rap so I didn't seem to enthusiastic - or rude.

After a moment, the door creaked opened and a young girl stood infront of me then offered me a warm smile

"Hey, are you LuLu?" she asked.

"Yeah." I said awkwardly "That's me," I shifted my weight from one foot to the other, no knowing what to do with myself.

"You here for Katherine?"

"Yup,"

She nodded knowingly. "Top floor. Last room on the right." she said, opening the door wider.

I nodded and thanked her before I slipped past her, my suitcase accidentally ran over her toes and I had to apologise fervently. Not a good first impression. I could have kicked myself for that.

I got the the huge stairs that spiralled all the way to the top. I gave a small sigh, but not too loud because the girl was still watching and I'd already made a fool of myself once.

I hitched my backpack up and lifted my suitcase up and started up the seemingly never ending stairs.

I got to Katherine's room and pushed open her glossy white door.

"Damn," I whispered, shutting the door behind me.

I stood there and took in my surroundings. It could have easily fit a couple of hundred people in here. The curtains were woven in a beautiful golden silk that matched the bed sheets on the King sized bed.

The carpet looked like every last inch had been scrubbed with a nail brush twice over. I needed whatever their cleaning lady uses.

Another door just to the side of me opened suddenly. Hot steam that smelled of a gorgeous shower gel came wafting out but that wasn't the only thing that stepped into the room. A super tall guy, water dripping over his jet black and down into his piercing green eyes and chiseled stomach.

"Who are you?" he asked, his voice was deep, soothing, with a hint of danger to it.

"Oh," I said, caught slightly off guard by his voice. "I'm Lulu," I said nor being able to resist looking down at his abs. "And you're gorgeous," I added under my breath.

He looked confused for a moment but then the bedroom door opened and it was Katherine. Her face was glowing and she looked radiant. I squealed and moved forward to pull her into a hug but somethihg was in the way of us. I looked down and almost screamed.

She's pregnant?

"Lulu. You're here!" she says happily coming towards me giving me a hug so tight that her bump pushed up against me.

"Katherine! You're pregnant - again!" I said. She pulled away and raised an eyebrow at me. "Clearly," she replied gesturing at her protruding stomach.

I rolled my eyes. "So who is the hottie in the towel?" I asked jerking my thumb backwards to the guy.

She looked at him, then back to me and smiled "That's Carter," she sighed happily at him.

I pushed passed her and stuck my hand out to him. He hesitated but then out his wet hand into mine and shook it firmly,

Katherine growled lowly at me. I looked at her, stunned.

"What?" I ask.

"Uh, I'll just go get dressed..." Carter said stepping back inside the bathroom slowly.
