"hi, I'm Zara and Cara" a blonde girl introduced herself and her identical sister as soon as we pulled up at the pack house.
"guys leave her alone she's had a long flight and she tired." my mate spoke pulling me to his side.
"no fair." they pouted
"your brother is right girls" an older woman who slightly resembled my mate and his siblings came. "hello dear" she smiled at me warmly.
"hi" I responded barely in a whisper
"Baby why don't you take her to your room, I'm sure she's exhausted." the woman looked at my mate who nodded
"let's go" he spoke softly to me for the first time. He then took my hand and lead me through the house, if I was in my normal enthusiastic mood I would have marveled it.
"this is our room" he told me when we entered the huge room, it had to be four times the size of my old bedroom.
"your things are in the closet, we can unpack tomorrow considering its late and you are tired" my mate told me and I nodded, it was quite late almost 8 in the evening and I was tired.
"I have to speak to my father real quick, I'll be back, make yourself comfortable OK" he told me before kissing forehead and leaving.
Not wanting to explore the room, I took out my favourite pyjamas and took a bath to help me try and relax. The bath did help a tad bit but I was still bummed about everything so I slid into bed and it smelt like my mate which was a good thing of course cause his scent helped me calm down.
******
"Candy" I groaned sleepily "just 1 more minute." I talked in my sleep as the drowsiness left my body. Yawning, I opened my eyes only to find myself in a completely different room, my room didn't had a cream and gold colour interior, it was lilac and my sheets were certainly not silky nor was my bed this big.
"morning" I heard a deep husky voice speak.
I turned my head to the source only to see him, my mate and all of yesterdays events from me cleaning the floor to crying myself to sleep hit me like a tsunami making me want to cry.
"Here, I got you some painkillers" he gave me some tablets and I sat up "I figured you'd have a headache." he Aldo gave me some water and I drunk up, he wasn't wrong, I did have a headache and my eyes felt so swollen probably from all the crying.
"are you feeling OK, aside from the headache?" he asked and I shook my head no."OK, I'll be in the shower" he kissed my forehead and left the room, leaving me to my misery. I looked over to the other side of the bed only to find it untouched, I wondered where he slept but stopped when I saw a blanket and pillow on the black sofa in the room and I immediately felt bad.
After taking my bath and dressing up, I went into the bedroom and started spreading the bed.
"there's no need to do that" my mate stopped me as soon as he walked in and realized what I was doing. "someone else will do it."
"I'm sorry for taking over your bed." I apologized.
"there's no need to apologize love, it's your bed too as much as its mine" he cooed taking my hand so it was resting in his while his other one gently averted my face so I was looking at him. "I should be the one apologizing, I'm sorry for my awful behavior yesterday, I was just having a bad day."
"I understand" I responded shyly.
"can we start over?" he asked and I nodded "great, so for starters my name is Lawrence, Lawrence Josiah Cain, alpha of Crimson pack" he introduced himself like we were meeting for the first time and it was so cute it made me smile a little "what's yours?"
"Jupiter, Jupiter Monroe." I told him and he looked at me in disbelief
"Jupiter, like planet Jupiter?" he asked like most people asked
"yes like the planet" I looked at my feet feeling embarrassed.
"it's a beautiful name, compliments your big eyes" he made me look at him, he was smiling at me.
"thank you" I smiled shyly, this was the first time someone had ever complimented my eyes.
"they are beautiful, just like you" he kissed my cheek and I almost melted. "come on, my family is waiting for us." he took my hand in his and lead me out of our room, down the long hall then the staircase and we entered what seemed to be the dining room judging by the big oval oak table and chairs where everyone was seated.
"morning" Nolan beamed giving me a hug which made Lawrence growl at him.
"don't growl at me, I met her before you, she was my friend before she became your mate" he hissed making me chuckle internally.
"and she'll be our best friend soon" Zara and Cara beamed pulling me into a bear hug.
"personal space ladies" a woman I hadn't seen before pulled them away only to hug me herself but it was short but friendly. "I'm Florence"
"I'm Dario, their father unfortunately" a man who looked exactly like Lawrence only older chuckled hugging me and ignoring all the 'heys' he got for the comment.
"and I'm Karena." Lawrence's mother beamed hugging me tightly.
"I call her Tutu" Dario joked making me laugh when she smacked him.
"I- I'm Jupiter" I spoke quietly knowing how they would react.
"what was that honey?" Karena asked
"my name, I'm Jupiter"
"like the planet, like planet Jupiter" they gasped
"yes like the planet!" Lawrence snapped and everyone just stared me and at that point I felt like I should have faked another name.
"that's so cool!" Nolan broke the silence.
"yeah so cool" one of the twins squealed "why didn't you guys name us after a planet or something." she huffed at her parents.
"yeah" the other twin huffed
"Your name compliments your eyes, big and beautiful." Florence smiled making me blush
"that's what I said" Lawrence smiled proudly.
"OK now that the introductions are over and done with, let's have breakfast, I'm sure you are starving, you had nothing to eat last night" Karena took my hand and lead me to my seat beside Lawrence.
"no" I stopped the maid who wanted to put a bowl of fruit salad in front of me.
"you don't like it Luna?" she asked worriedly
"no its not that" I spoke quickly not wanting to offend her "I'm allergic to pineapples and I presume you've added them"
"give her some of Lawrence's" Dario instructed and she nodded
"don't worry it doesn't have pineapples, Lawrence is also allergic" Karena assured
"aw you have the same alleges" the twins and Florence cooed making my cheeks crimson red.
"thank you" I told the maid and she bowed.
Breakfast went by smoothly with everyone making jokes or funny comments most of the time, then I retreated to my room and unpacked my stuff which I insisted on doing personally but 2 maids and Florence helped me. My clothes barely filled my side of the closet, hell it still looked empty even with my stuff.
"don't worry this closet will be filled in a month." Florence grinned. Turns out Florence was Nolan's mate, she was really nice to me and she assured that everyone liked me and all was going to be OK, it just so happened that Nolan told her all about yesterday.
Since I had no shelf of my own to put my books I kept them in the boxes in the corner of the closet.
By the time we finished it was almost dinner time and Lawrence decided it was best we had it in the garden, just the two of us now isn't that just so sweet.
"let's play 20 questions" Lawrence offered after we finished our meal and were watching the stars.
"OK" I nodded
"I'll go first" he smiled "what's your favorite colour?"
"lilac, yours?"
"white"
"how old are you" I finally gathered the courage to ask on the 20th question, I would have asked long before but most people say it extremely rude to ask someone about their age.
"take a guess" he smirked
"23" I guessed cause he looked to be either in his mid or early 20s.
"close, I'm 25 and you love how old are you although I can be you are barely above 20."
"I'm 19"
"you could definitely pass for a 12 year old you know" he joked making me chuckle.
We spent most of the night talking till we went back to our room,changed into our pyjamas.
"goodnight love" Lawrence kissed my forehead
"goodnight Lawrence" I replied closing my heavy eyes. Maybe everything really was going to be OK.
