CHAPTER 19

I stood up from the couch, I walked to the bed and collapsed ontop of her, she screamed but I ignored her and faked a snore as well.

Two can play the game.

FINDING REMEDY: Chapter 11 – 20

The next morning

I jumped out of the bed due to the sound of a ringing bell which is threatening to render me deaf. It sounded as though it’s that gigantic helmet that crushed Conrad in the novel “THE CASTLE OF OTRANTO”

I stretched myself.

“Who the h*ll is ringing that Stupid bell.
I turned to the bed and saw Nicky’s face buried on the bed, and she was pressing a pillow on her head in order to cover her ears from the ringing bell. I laughed.

“Us that working” I asked her.

“No” she groaned in frustration.

She sat up and threw the pillow towards the door. We heard someone scream “ouch!”
We turned and saw Alex holding the pink pillow. Huh? How did he..

“When did you get in here” I asked him.

“Just now” he replied.

“I’m pretty sure Nicky locked this door last night” I asked in confusion.

“I unblocked it from outside” he replied.

“How?” I insisted.

“Seriously, I thought nothing is supposed to surprise you anymore?” Nicky asked, Alex laughed, I rolled my eyes at them and they chuckled.

“You guys are missing breakfast” he informed us.

“I’ll literally miss anything else but food” Nicky snapped as she jumped out of bed, she ran to the bathroom.

That bell, gush, can’t they just stop ringing it.

“Arrrrrgh…. Can you tell whoever that is ringing that thing to stop it” I screamed at Alex.

“Sure princess” he replied, he walked to the bed and sat down. The bell finally stopped.

I guess he passed the message from here, I’m not surprised though but why couldn’t he just walk to that place and give the order?

“Cause I’m spoilt and lazy” he stated. He read my mind again.

“You look like it” I spat at him, he chuckled. “But what’s the bell for anyway?” I asked.

“Most werewolves are deep sleepers so the bell is for waking them up” he replied as he ran his eyes over me, I blushed but controlled myself.

“Are you guys dogs?” I asked, he laughed a little.

“You are funny, but see it as an alarm, just like you humans sets alarm” he explained.

“That makes sense” I reasoned.

“You are so beautiful Andra, even with sleepy eyes” he winked at me.

I blushed but also kind of embarrassed, I didn’t know my eyes still looked sleepy.

He lifted my chin to look up at him, his maroon eyes looked brighter than ever, I could feel his breath on my face and it was warm and soothing, I was gradually losing my mind, I imagined dragging him down and ravish him.

“Please do it” he pleaded with a naughty smile. Sht i forgot he can read my mind, I won’t think about anything else again, he laughed out.

“Stop it” I whined.

He leaned closer and tried to kss me but the closet door swung open. Seriously Nicky why now?

I was actually expecting her to be in the bathroom for about an hour considering the fact that she might be playing with her beautiful tail. But instead she came out in 10 minutes and at the wrong time as well.

“Sorry if I ruined a moment” she winked. Idi*t.

“How come you bathed so quickly?” I asked her.
“Never joke with a mermaid when food is involved” Alex chuckled out.

“I’ll remember that” I giggled.

“You guys should not make me ink you” Nicky warned jokingly. “I’m going down 500 miles below sea level today, twice. So I’m gonna need all the food I can get” she added and we laughed.

I entered the bathroom. After taking my bath, I entered the closet and slipped on an orange flay short gown and a blue flip.

When I entered the room, I saw Nicky applying makeup on Alex’s face.

“What are you doing?” I asked them.

“What does it look like? I’m making him up” Nicky replied.

Alex turned to me. Wow he looked like a girl. Such a cute boy.

“How do I look” he asked.

“You look like a girl” I replied with a smile.

“What!” He exclaimed. “I’m cleaning it” he said. He touched his face with his right palm and the makeup cleared off. I really wish I have extra ordinary powers. They both laughed.

“Yea, you guys should keep showing off, you read everything thing in mind, I get it. Now can we go” i mumbled.

“Jealous girl” they both said in unison and laughed.

“To h*ll with you two” I fired at them and walked out of the room. But when I got to the hallway, nobody asked me to wait for them.

“Miss, are you lost?” Alex asked me with an amused smile.

“No, I was just looking around” I lied.
“Yea right, come here” he picked my hand and slipped it into his elbow.

We walked out, but instead of walking towards the west wing where I’m sure the courtyard is, we walked towards the east east wing.

“Umh, this is not the way to the courtyard Alex, or are you taking us for another house tour.

“Not ‘us’, I know my way around here” Nicky snapped.

“I’m not surprised fish”

“Alex warn your girl, cause I don’t need Caspian to behead her for me, I can do that myself” she warned.

“Relax your tail my friend, you can’t do anything” I fired back.

Alex opened a door and we walked into a different courtyard, or is it the same courtyard, does it look different because it’s morning.

“It’s not the same courtyard” Alex confirmed my suspicion.

“I thought as much”
We sat at the dining the same way we sat last night – beside the king.
