Chapter 34
Eve POV
The next few days go by painstakingly slow. I keep trying to get out and do stuff but I’m sent back to bed to rest. No matter how much I protest that it is not that bad, all my girls make it very clear they are buying none of it.
Willow is the worst as she is very regimented normally but now she is making sure I eat and take medication at exact times. Honestly, I have had worse without painkillers. Conrad keeps coming by and making sure I’m OK. I think he is worried I will disappear again. Arthur has been coming by too. He knows I’m strong so think he is stopping by to keep an eye on Conrad. Going to have to get those two to work on that. I know they are just being caring but honestly, I’m getting cabin fever.
On day three, Conrad and Liam come to the rooms to get us and announce it is moving day. The girls are excited but I’m a bit sad. We have always been together and shared bathrooms between us. I know it’s good to have our own space but we have been together and in each other spaces for years it will be sad for it to end.
The three girls‘ rooms are next to each other. They are each given a key and reminded that most doors aren’t locked in the house as the maids come in to clean anyway. They excitedly run in and start exploring. I can hear Michelle scream when she sees her wardrobe. Willow is checking out her reading corner and chair with tea and coffee station. Kimberly has a full mini office which is a huge upgrade from her previous desk which is as pink as can be.
They run out and start hugging the boys and staff and want to get their stuff to move in. We were told that the staff were already packing for them and would be bringing everything over to get settled in
Michelle spots me quietly hiding in the back, away from the excitement. “Where’s Eve’s room“.
Conrad comes over and takes my hand, “She is just around the corner over there. It’s closer to her mum and is further into the wing so we can protect her better“.
I know he wants me to be treated specially but I’m not used to it. “You don’t need to do that. I’ll be fine
with any of these rooms“.
“But I want to. Come on I’ll show you“. He is smiling but I can sense the nerves.
Michelle starts to follow and Liam grabs her. “We will catch up in a bit. There are more things I want to show Mish“.
She starts to protest, “But I want to see Eve’s room“.
“And you will just later“, Liam says in a stern voice hoping she gets the hint. She is still annoyed and stomps off.
Why does Conrad want me alone?

Chapter 34
We walked through the hallway and around the corner while he was still holding onto my hand. We get to some very large double doors. It’s not too far from the girls but not as close as I like. From the size of the doors, this is one of the bigger rooms.
Conrad turns me and looks me in the eyes. “I designed this room based on what I thought you would like. I hope you like it“. He takes a deep breath and opens the door. He’s practically shaking now but I don’t know if it’s excitement or nerves.
When I walk in, I can’t help but gasp. He has brought the outside in. Everything is in natural timber so it looks like the forest. The walls are a natural green and have a wallpaper underneath the paint that looks like leaves. All the linens are soft and elegant in earth tones. The ensuite has a huge bathtub that looks like stone and goes with the rest of the tiled marble. It’s so large it is basically a studio apartment.
“This is amazing. How did you know I liked outdoors this much“.
“When you ran away, the girls mentioned you would likely go to the forest as you go every month. Figured you and your wolf felt safest there“.
“Are you sure it’s not too much“.
“Of course. You should have been treated like royalty from when you were born. I’m just making sure
you’re treated right from this point on“.
I can’t help but smile. Part of me feels guilty cause I have pushed him away so much and told him nothing. And yet, he has noticed all the small things anyway.
“I have something else for you. I noticed you don’t have many personal items. Mainly just things you need. So, I got this custom ordered“.
He pulls out a box from his jacket and opens it. It’s a necklace of a full moon with a diamond in it.
He looks at me nervously again. “The full moon represents completeness and the time we are most connected to everything that we are. This is what you mean to me my shining moonlight. My completeness and connection to what we truly are meant to be as wolves“.
I have never had anyone say something so beautiful to me. I’m not sure how to react. I just smile at him speechless.
“Can I put it on you“.
I hand him the necklace and turn around. I gently move my hair out of the way. He wraps his arms around me and gently places the necklace on me. It’s perfect. He wraps his arms around my waist, pulls me closer to him, and rests his head on my neck. He starts nuzzling me and places a gentle kiss where my neck meets my shoulder.
This sends a shudder through my whole body. Is this how good it feels to be in loving arms? L
I want
time to stand still so moments like this last forever. I look over my shoulder and meet his eyes. He has taken all the risks so far. It’s time I made one.

I turn around, move my body closer to him, and kiss him gently on the lips. I feel him ich bin beach se do this. He then looks at me with pleading eyes.
He whispers gently “Please don’t stop“.
He moves one hand up my until he reaches my face. He strokes it gently and pulls me in for a deeper t as gentle kiss.
