Ying & Yang

Chapter 8

Peeling open my eyes I groan at the first rays of sunlight waking the birds in the trees just beneath the balcony making me wince with their loudness. Where's a gun when you need one?

To shoot the birds or ourself? My wolf questions.

The sun I say sarcastically the birds of course!

I force myself into a sitting position against the head board and rub my eyes trying to wipe away the groggyness of sleep. Once my eyes start to focus I freeze in place and look around the room worriedly. Where there was only the bed and beside tables before I fell asleep there is now a white and gold vanity in the far corner near the window leading out to the balcony. There's a crimson couch on top a white fluffy rug facing a mounted flat screen TV near the door with a gray throw rug over the top. A corner bookshelf now in the far left corner with five books and a comfy chair about four feet infront with a small tall circle table next to it with a lamp.

Did I sleep walk into another room? I couldn't of I've never slept walked before. Did someone carry me into a new room? Nah, I would of woken up.  So someone decided to decorate as I slept? How in all hell did I know wake up!?

They must of been a ninja my wolf states.

Please don't start your idiocy now I whine.

It's not idiocy if it's fact. They must of been a ninja to sneak in and do this without alerting us she tells me.

Or... I start our mates did it and their scent kept us lulled in our sleep.

......  Buzzkill.

I shake my head at her just as the doors to the room opened revealing a very happy Alex with a kilowatt smile and crinkles framing her eyes. She trots over to me with a tray of what I presume is food making my stomach flip in anticipation. She hands me the tray and looks around the room approvingly.

"Looks like they took my idea to heart" she smiles.

I look up at her as I swollow the mouth full of bacon "pardon?".

"Your mates" she explains "I recommended that they buy a few things to make you more welcomed".

So my mates are the ones that did this, maybe they do really care about me. Just as a small smile starts on my face the image of a pouting Marcella bursts into my mind with a bright flash wipping the would of been smile off my face immediately. Would this of been hers if they didn't find me when they did?

Clearing my throat I ask the question that's quickly formed on my tounge "have you found anything about Marcellas and my mates relationship?".

She shakes her head sadly "I haven't heard anything about that or insinuating that they do have any sort of relationship" she her lips quickly quirk up in rememberance "but she did get yelled at yesterday by Prince Kai, I think because she insulted you".

My heart swells at this but it gets crushed as a little voice in the back of my mind whispers 'maybe because they didn't want you two to meet? It's easier to cheat if the two girls don't know each other'. Feeling heartbroken I push the tray away having only eaten half of the eggs and bacon but feeling sick at my minds thoughts. Alex quickly takes the tray away placing it on the bedside table most likely noticing my pale complexion.

Pulling the sheets down she swings my legs off the edge of the best and pulls me up. "Let's get you cleaned up" she smiles.

I thankfully walk to bathroom by myself with only a few stumbles but I quickly got rightened up by a close by Alex that was following behind me. I strip myself off as Alex runs me a bath with lots of bath crystals and bubbles the sweet smells of both mixing making a new sweet scent. With the help of Alex I climb into the tube and start scrubing my skin and face of oil and dirst. My night dress is taken away and replaced with clean clothes by Alex who vanishes for ten minutes before returning beaming at me like she won the lottery.
