Wolf pack

Getting Settled

"Two rooms please." Jynx placed a golden-lined card on the hotel table, receiving wide eyes."I'm paying."
If they had not trusted their eyes so much, the registers would have noticed the card was nothing but a business card from the hotel itself.
They also would have noticed the strange group of werewolves before them had wildly unique styles. If they were in their right minds they would have demanded Cleo wear proper clothing and walk on her own. Thanks to Anya's convincing, Jynx's illusions and Nimera' shields, not a single person batted an eye.
The rooms were easy to find and drew little attention to themselves, that was good. There was a door between the rooms, allowing access without entering the hall. Each room had two beds, a small counter with microwave and mini fridge, and a bathroom.
Jynx, Anya, Anu and Cleo took one room, while Lokan, Nate, Melody and Nimera took the other.
Melody excitedly jumped on the bed. "Finally! A comfortable sleeping place!"
Nate frowned a little, resting her backpack onto the end of the bed.
It was easy to get settled because there was very little to settle. Besiding the accessories and Melody's backpack, there were no possessions outside of the clothes on their backs.
Cleo sat in Anu's lap, facing in between the doors that connected the rooms. "This is new."
"Everything is new for you Love." He nuzzled into her shoulder.
Lokan tossed a pillow between his hands, leaning towards Nimera. "Hmm, we will be sharing the last bed, yes?"
Nate folded his arms. "You are sharing with me. Melody is still a lady, and so is Nimera. They will be respected as such."
Lokan's expression was troubled. "I'd never dream of treating them as any less, anyone who does will get this." He squeezed the pillow hard in his hand, which was not near as threatening as he had hoped it would be.
"We are here now, first item of business?" Anya shifted to rest a hand on her hip.
Melody looked at her torn pants and rugged jacket desperate to be burned.
"I really need new clothes."
"I need clothes."
Anu let out a playful growl. "Do you?"
"Yes." Anya snapped. "We should try to get new clothing and, for Melody's sake, some decent food."
Melody nodded tiredly in agreement.
"Easier done than said." Jynx waved a hand, more golden cards floating above his hand. "A mall wont take long to find, we can leave right now."
"Werewolves have great endurance and all, but I'm tired and have missed a nice bed, can I please get a nap first?"
Anya grinned, resting a hand on her shoulder and instantly spreading a sleepy calm over Melody. "Of course."
Not even lasting long enough to move the covers, Melody was sound asleep.
Cleo was falling asleep just as quickly.
Nimera silently stepped onto the second bed, a white shield appearing until she was entirely invisible. They wouldn't see it but they knew a shield was surrounding the two rooms just as effectively.
"I'll watch over them." Anu eyed Nate. "I suggest you return with a meal, medium rare please."
Nate stared down Anu a long while before sitting on the bed. "We will watch over them, thank you."
"Do you really want to watch us brother?"
Nate stood and shut the door between the two rooms.
"You seem to got this covered!" Lokan clapped his hands together a little too hard, causing Cleo to jolt awake. "We off to dine then?"
Anya and Jynx sighed to themselves, grudgingly pulling Lokan out the door with them. "I suppose we are."
