Nova's POV

I wasn't excited that they were building the 'Highlord house', but I don't guess I had much of a say. Each court pitched in money to build it right away. There were 25 bedrooms, One for each son, one for me, one for each Highlord and consort and some extras for people like Uncle Cass, Uncle Az and Mor. It was in a small town of our court. It was a lot like Velaris, but it wasn't Velaris. This town was called Cretha.(Cree-Thuh). It had many shops and stores and recreational facilities. Such as a small strip mall, a roller skating rink, a trampoline park, a library and many restaurants. It was no surprise it was being built here. I didn't like it though.

4 months later

The house had finished being built. Mom came in my room and said "We have to go shopping, you need to decorate your room and get clothes to fill it in." I groaned. I really hated shopping. "Where is my room at?" Mom smiled, I guess that means she put my room somewhere I'd like it. "You kinda have your own wing of the house. It's separated from all the boys, who have their own wing and it's separated from the Highlords and their consorts." Hallelujah, that means I can do what I want. "Do I have anything special over there?" Mom chuckled. "Yes you do, you have a small training gym and all the proper appliances. Like a kitchen, a bathroom, and a table." Perfect! It had everything. I got up out of my bed and pulled my hair up into a loose knot. Mom walked out and I guess went to the living room. I strapped on my boots and went to meet mom in the living room. We had shopping to do.

The store we went to wasn't packed. It had bed frames, quilts, ice boxes, chifforobes, Fae light to light up her room and many other things. It didn't take me long to pick out my things, but once we were finished mom just had to make things slightly worse, "We have to go clothes shopping—- and you have to get dresses." Aww Shit. I shouldn't be complaining, but I didn't like dresses. Besides, it's only one week of every month, so I'm not going to complain.

I picked out 12 dresses, and many other shirts and pants. I understood why I had to buy more clothes, but why couldn't I have just reworn some stuff. Once we got back to the house. I shorted all my stuff and put it in boxes. The house had been finished for a week now and it was time for me to go decorate my room. We took a flying route. From Velaris it takes about 45 minutes to get there via flight. Which we fly fast so walking or riding horse would take way longer. After I had got to the house I packed all the stuff to my room and began decorating. I'm happy with how it turned out actually. I put food in the cabinets so I could cook for myself. I put a nice sofa in my living room. I had it made. Now the only thing I had to worry about was—— Would other people, not Bex, be allowed in my wing? I hoped to the cauldron not.

I posted a picture of her room at the top. I know it looks.... gothic. But I always pictured the bedrooms of the night Court to be dark and such. It's a cool bedroom though ☺️
