Chapter 53
Astrid’s POV
"Goodnight." I said as I walked into my room and she went her way.
The room was different from the one Kaeleen uses, I noted as I closed the door behind me. He wasn’t in here and Rebecca has showed me his room when she gave me a tour of the house. While mine was smaller...which was a bit of a stretch because it was bigger than even Leon’s room at the Moonshade pack, it was clearly intended for a single occupant. I sighed, running a hand through my hair. The day had been a whirlwind of emotions, and all I wanted to do was collapse into bed and forget about everything.
I took a shower first to wash away all the sweat and stickiness. I wouldn’t even deny it, I enjoyed the shower a lot. Maybe some other time I could use the bath. It seemed like it was calling my name and I wasn’t one to resist the temptation of something that looked so good. And besides, it was going to be my first experience so I was going to make it soecial. Soon.
Just as I was about to change into my pyjamas, I heard a knock echoed through the room. I frowned, wondering who it could be. Maybe it was Rebecca again, perhaps she had forgotten something. Although that would be a surprise. Or maybe she had come to talk because even if Rebecca hadn’t said it openly, I could feel that there was something wrong somewhere. Something was troubling her but I didn’t know what. I just hoped I could help. I mean, she is my first female friend after all.
Not counting those in my father’s pack I had made when I was younger who their parents had restricted from going out with me to play after they found out I killed my sister. I couldn’t help but rolling my eyes at the absurdity of it all.
The knock sounded again, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"I’m coming." I called out as I walked over to the door and opened it. But to my surprise, it wasn’t Rebecca standing there, but Kaeleen.
