Emerald Eyed Luna novel Nina (by Mrs.Smith) novel Chapter 16

Waking up to birds chirping and a slight breeze hitting my face from the open window is probably the best way to wake up. I am not sure why I am worn out but I have been giving so much information. I am still trying to process it. We still have 7 hours left on our trip to reach our destination. Dragging my feet, I made the trek to the shower. It was a basic shower, floor to ceiling black marble tile and a clear glass door. The black tile ran the length of the bathroom and was paired with a white vanity with two sinks. Still, the bathroom was stacked with all the needed supplies a girl could want. I rummaged through the drawer till I found the shampoo and conditioner. Towels were stacked above the toilet in a cabinet and there were even samples of lavender fragrance oils to put in the shower to relax you. Hanging a strand of lavender from the shower head, I turned the water on hot. It didn’t talk long before the whole bathroom was misted over and I was in heaven. Letting the hot water massage my neck and back, I just stood there thinking.

“Raven, I just have a feeling something is going to happen today” I said.

“Yeah, I felt that way last night, I am not sure what it is though. We should be alert. I am going to go to sleep since I stayed up all night. I will be here if you need me though” and with that Raven circled a few times in the back of my mind before she laid down, sighed and started snoring loudly in my head.

“You awake!?” Zach yelled in my head. I swear, his morning personality was his most annoying trait.

“Fuck, yes. Stop yelling”, I grumbled “I am showering and will be down shorty”

“Okay, we are getting ready to eat breakfast and then we need to head out, a long drive ahead of us. Plus, I don’t really want to stay here longer than needed. I don’t get a good feeling about this place.”

“Yeah, me either” I said, and closed the link. Sighing, I turned the shower off and grabbed my towel and dried off. Thankfully, Zach brought me my bag, so I grabbed simple pink leggings and a black crop top and sports bra to match, and grabbed my black sneakers. I left my hair down and braided it off to the side and applied lotion to my face. I don’t really care about my looks, since all I will be doing today is driving.

Making my way down stairs with my bad, I can hear whispering. I stopped and listened. “I don’t think she knows who they are” a male said with a deep raspy voice.

“Well, it’s his family, does he know?” a second voice said but slightly higher pitch.

“Woman, use your fucking brain, we were told they kept him a secret from everyone. I already told you too much as it is. Fuck. Just go away before you spoil everything”

Hearing footsteps, I quickly ran to the nearest door and ran in. It just happened to be another bathroom. I heard someone stop outside the bathroom, so I quickly flushed the toilet and washed my hands. Opening the door, I was met by a guy who screamed danger. Towering over me, he had tattoos covering both arms, blonde hair and was pulled into a man’s bun at the base of his neck, a cut off black vest, blue jeans that had more holes in them than anything and military style black boots. He was solid muscle and had those eyes that bore into your soul.

“Oh, hi. I am finished now, your welcome to head in.” I said lamely.

“Hmm” was all he said and walked away. I made my way to the kitchen and the mystery man was not there. Zach’s eyes found me and narrowed in and could tell something had happened. I quickly shook my head and made my way to the empty chair across from him. There was a light spread of waffles, fruit, pancakes, sausage and orange juice. Grabbing a plate, I chose pancakes with chocolate chips and sausage.

“When are you guys leaving?” Alpha Alex asked. I didn’t get a negative vibe per say but I didn’t get a ‘please stay as long as you want’ vibe either.
