Lily and James (werewolf novel) novel Chapter 274

(Lily POV)

(A few months later)

Something is up, but I do not know what that “something” is. What I do know is that everyone has been acting really strangely today.

It started when James brought me breakfast in bed… that he had taken the time to cook himself. Then, after we had both eaten, he insisted that I take a long bath and relax for a while. Normally that his not-so-subtle way of getting me naked, but to my disappointment …instead of getting in the bathtub with me… he then ran off to take care of some “pack business.”

When I got out of the bathtub, Jessica and Charlotte were waiting for me in our bedroom. It was not a surprise to see Jessica —she has even fewer boundaries than Charlotte if that is possible— but I was shocked to see Charlotte because I had not known that she was coming into town today.

Once I was dressed in the “comfy” clothes that they insisted I wear, they blindfolded me and led me to a car. They did not let me remove the blindfold until we arrived at our destination, which turned out to be a full-service spa.

We spent the next several hours getting pampered with manicures, pedicures, massages, facials, and hair treatments. When all that was done, they brought out a beautiful black lace dress and asked me to put it on. When I came out, they were also dressed up.

All day long, I kept asking them what was going on. They would not tell me, and James would not either when I texted him. He just told me to enjoy my day and that he had everything covered at the packhouse.

My mind ran wild with various possibilities of what might be going on. If I did not know any better, I would have assumed that this was a set up for a marriage proposal, but James proposed to me months ago.

My next thought was that they were going to surprise me with a wedding…. but James and I had already planned our wedding to occur on Christmas Eve in a couple of months, and I knew there was no way that Charlotte would let me wear black to my wedding. More importantly, I knew everyone knew how important it was to me to have Dr. Hyder walk me down the aisle, and he and his wife are currently on a well-deserved second honeymoon in France.

Then I considered whether it had something to do with medical school, but I was not scheduled to resume my classes until January.

So… the bottom line was… I really had no idea.
