Chapter 2 - Chapter Two

It took about ten minutes to even get to the bathroom with how weak my legs were. "How long was I actually unconscious for?" I murmured as we turn a corner "Um for about two-and-a-half weeks. You sustained a pretty severe concussion and a couple of broken ribs." Oli sighed. "Oh, look, we're here. This is the communal bathroom, there are seven showers and three rows of toilets." She opened the door and lightly pushed me through. "Just say my name if you need any more help and I will be here." She shut the door, and I heard it lock.

"Right, well then. Off we go to shower" muttering to myself seemed to calm me down and I moved to the showers stripping as I go. When I made it to the first shower, I threw the hot water on and waited for it to warm up. While I waited, I looked around to see if I could find the toilets. After relieving myself, I made my way back to the shower and turned the cold water on slightly so that it's still hot enough to scold you if you're not prepared for it. I quickly jumped under the water, hissing slightly before relaxing into the water.

While I was in the shower, I thought about my Mother and Sister, how they were doing, what they were doing, but most importantly will I ever see them again. It was at this thought that I realised the water on my face wasn't just water I was crying. It took another fifteen minutes before I could settle myself enough to turn the shower off and walk around naked trying to find a towel. After five minutes, I still couldn't find any "Oli?" I whisper there was a slight breeze behind me "Why are you naked?" jumping I turned around and saw both Oli and Christophe squealing I wrapped my arms around my torso and crossed my legs hoping in vain that I covered all the important bits.

"I could not find a towel and I'm pretty sure I only called you Oli. Not Oli and Christophe." I glared at the male who was blatantly staring at my crossed arms. "HEY! eyes up here." I moved one hand to point to where my eyes were. "I realise your eyes are up there, however you are my beloved and I can look at whatever I see fit." his smug face made me want to hit him. "I am not some property for you to ogle at your leisure." I snap and turn to Oli "Why is he here?" I didn't give her the opportunity to answer, "Where are the towels. If there is none here, I would like to go to the room and find something to wear. I do not care if I have to walk naked." As I finished speaking, there was a low growl emitting from where Christophe was. "Why are you growling like a madman?" I turned to him in a huff. "You. Are. Mine." he growled his eyes had turned that bright red again however this time they had flecks of black. Once again, I felt fear course through my body at the sight.

"Meus rex, non nunc. Tu times eius" Oli had stepped in front of me, blocking me from his view "Meus amor" His voice was getting deeper and you could feel the power radiate from him "Yes. I know she is yours, but she does not know our ways. Our customs you need to explain in human terms." She stood her ground "Until then, I will take her to your room where she can get dressed." not turning her back to the demonic thing in front of us, she wrapped her arm around me and lead us out of the bathroom. "Please forgive me, Ana, but I need to pick you up." as she said that I felt her arms go underneath my legs and up I went she was carrying me bridal style. there was the sudden breeze and when it stopped, we were inside a room that I was not familiar with.

"Once again, I am sorry for picking you up, but it was the fastest way to get you out of there." Oli apologised, causing me to smile. "It's okay, Oli, really, Where can I find clothes in here?" I looked around and took in the room there was a king-size bed pushed up against the right side wall with two black bedside tables on either side. There was a floor to ceiling window that had a French sliding door in the middle, which must lead out to a balcony of some sort. On the other side of the room there were three doors, and on the floor was a grand old red shaggy rug that ran underneath the bed "The middle door over there leads to a personal bathroom, the one on the right is going to be your wardrobe so your clothes should be in there along with any undergarments necessary" Oli smiled "if you need any more help I am sure once Christophe is calm he would love to answer them. I will see you for dinner, I suppose." With that, Oli left the room, and I was left alone.

Sighing softly, I went to the right side door and opened it "Jesus. It's a walk-in closet and it fucking huge." I groaned and walked further in. On one side it held dresses ranging from casual wear to elegant ballgowns under each dress was a pair of shoes to match between the dresses and further along stood a cabinet made of glass inside the glass cabinet were shelves full of jewellery, diamond, gold, silver, emeralds, rubies all different stones you could think of were in there. On the other side of the closet were all different pants and shirts each outfit was put together on the one coat hanger before they were hung up. Under each outfit once again were different shoes and further into the closet were more shoes, mostly high heels, but there were some joggers and ballet flats as well. "Oh, my god. This is too much" I whisper and rummage through the pants, trying to find the most basic outfit I could.

This turned out to be a pair of black tights with a geo mesh pattern on the side that ran up the entire leg. The shirt itself was emerald green, it had a cowl neck and was a backless halter. under the outfit's hanger was a pair of silver stiletto shoes, sighing I turned around the see a drawer finding it full of underwear and bras. "Oh well, at least I won't be going commando, although judging by the clothes I might not have a choice," I mutter to myself and I heard someone laugh in the other room.

"What the hell?" I screech and make my way into the room, still naked.
