And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)
Chapter 136
Chapter 136: Dinner with Odin
Thirty minutes later, I was freshly cleaned and out of the shower, drying my hair. I had never thought a hot shower could feel as amazing as it did, but the moment I finally turned off the water and stepped from it, a sigh of relief escaped my lips.
Yes, I had been through hell, but I couldn’t allow my sorrow over losing Melissa to keep weighing on me. I cried for twenty minutes in the shower to the point I couldn’t breathe, and wanted the world to destroy me. I was lost without her, and I hated myself for what I did, but I couldn’t let it destroy me.
I had to get better for her. I had to.
When a soft knock came at the door, I knew my time was up. Trixie had made a point letting me know she would be back as soon as I was done getting ready so she could take me down to dinner. Odin, my so-called grandfather, wanted us all to join him-even though I had no interest.
Taking a deep breath, I pushed off from the bathroom countertop, putting a smile on my face as I made my way towards the bedroom door. This was a new place, and with it, I could be different. I would do what I needed to and in the end, I would become someone people could trust, someone they could look up to.
Or at least, that’s what I hoped.
The moment I opened the door, Trixie’s glowing green eyes
met mine, and quickly she scanned them up and down my body. “What are you wearing?”
“Huh?” I glanced down at my black leggings and white oversized t-shirt. “Clothes?”
“Well, yeah, I see that.” She scoffed, causing me to meet her gaze once more, crossing my arms over my chest with a frown..
“What’s wrong with my clothes?”
“I literally got you all kinds of cute shit, and that’s what you chose to present yourself to Odin and his table? Brave soul.” Laughter escaped her, causing me to shrug.
“I don’t fucking care what they think. I’m not wearing some fancy dress, crown, and shit. That’s not who I am, and if they don’t like it, oh well.”
Nodding in agreement, she looped her arm through mine and closed the door behind me. “Fair enough. I love this rebellious nature of yours. It’s definitely going to provide for an entertaining evening.”
The simple touch of her looping her arm through mine brought me once again back to Melissa, and with every ounce of energy I had left, I pushed the thoughts to the back of my mind. “So what’s for dinner?”
A few moments later, we arrived at the grand hall. The large vaulted ceilings and arched walkways of dark wood were a contrast to the white marble of the rest of the building. I had half expected statues of gods to line the way, but instead, I found more animal skins and a roaring fire.
