Chapter 16 Ayla Rooms are an understatement .
Ive been ushered into a small apartment .
The space feels overwhelming considering I have been confined to cage for so long .
I cant believe this is actually happening .
I stand in the middle of the sitting area and just stare in shock .
I actually got out .
I feel dumbfounded and in denial .
I actually got out .
This is real .
Is it ? Is this really happening ? My rooms are beautiful .
There is a large bed , large tv , tons of clothing and a freaking jetted bath tub .
I havent had anything this nice since before I was taken .
Could I stay here ? Could I make this pack my home ? There is nothing left for me otherwise .
My family is gone .
The warden told me my father was dead , the whole castle burned down .
The entire pack slaughtered ; I am sure .

There is a knock at the door , which has me startled .
Ayla , I am Monica , I work in the kitchen and Alpha Thane asked me to bring you up some food .
I stare at the door contemplating whether or not to open it for what seems like an eternity .
I am going to set it down here in front of your door , and head back down to the mess hall .
Let me know if you need anything else .
I wait until I no longer hear footsteps and quickly open the door and pull the tray inside .
The smell alone has my stomach growling so loud , you could hear it outside .
I waste no time getting to the table to start eating .
I think they made everything imaginable .
Eggs , toast , bacon , sausage , pancakes , biscuits , fruit .
The amount of food on this tray is crazy and its all mine .
I dig in , practically choking because I am inhaling my food .
It tastes amazing .
When I finish , I head to the bathroom .
I have never seen a tub so big .
I swear you could put a whole family in here .
I quickly study it twisting nobs and attempting to turn this thing on when a push of a button has a stream of water shooting me right in the face .

Well , at least it works .
The tub starts to fill and the water is so hot , it could melt the paint off the walls , and I cant wait to get in .
Looking around , for who or what Im not sure , I slowly peel my clinic sweat pants and shirt off and lower myself into the tub .
The heat relaxes my muscles and it feels so good , I may never leave .
I watch as my white hair floats all around me and realize that in ten years , I have never had it cut .
My hair is down to my knees and although its pretty , hair that long isnt practical .
Maybe Thane knows someone that can cut it for me .
I close my eyes and relax back .
I find myself thinking longer about Thane more than I should .
He is the alpha here and is busy .
He has a whole pack to run and ! cant expect him to be at my side 24/7 .
I will need to meet more people here at some point .
The thought makes want to vomit , but I know it will be necessary .
Thanes beta was funny .
It was nice to be joked with , I wish I was brave enough to laugh .
Cyrus definitely earned one .

He too , is absolutely gorgeous .
With dark black hair that is a mess of curls on his head , another dimpled grin , muscles for days , and sea blue eyes , a girl could get used to all the shifter eye candy that seems rampant here .
There must be something in the water .
The water I am currently soaking in .
I look around and there are toiletries already here .
Lavender scented .
Apparently , someone wants to make my scent stronger .
The thought has me shaking my head .
Im sure Thane asked someone to bring me stuff .
He wouldnt have time to do it himself and it is a coincidence the scent is the same .
It takes me an eternity to get all of my hair washed and detangled .
! rummage through the dresser and find a pair of jean shorts and a plain fitted black tee to dress in .
I could wear something cuter ; theres tons here , but having clothes at all is nice .
I pull a black bra out of the top drawer and a matching lace panty .
I find myself blushing at the thought of Thane placing these in here .
I know he didnt , but I cant help my imagination .
