Chapter 152

• I slept off, with their fingers on my hair, running through it as they told me just how wonderful they thought I was. It was a calming time, and I slept off to the peaceful hum of their lips, only to wake up alone on the bed. I sat up, startled, as I glanced around the empty room. The side of the bed they lay on last night had gotten cold, meaning they left a long time ago.
• Puzzled, I got up from the bed and walked into the bathroom to get ready for the day. I would have left my room like this had we been back at their house. This was their palace not their home on Earth. The chances of running into a guard out there were high. I couldn't do anything to jeopardize my place here.
• After a quick bath, I got ready for the day. I wore a very loose gown and had my hair up in a messy bun, not caring how I looked. I wasn't meeting my people today. Aside from a few guards and the maids, there would be no one meeting me today, which was why I didn't bother with dressing up.
