Chapter 173 New Room & Old Friends

By the time I got back to my room, I was beyond exhaust- ed over having to deal with people in-general. The sun had set long ago, and as the moons rose up within the sky, I had a feeling my night was far from over. As soon as I walked through my door to my bedroom, Freya stood there waiting for me. And honestly, I was surprised how she had moved so quickly from the Grand Hall to my room without me even noticing.

"Freya, did you need something?" I asked her, watching as her cool eyes turned towards me with a smile on her face as she looked at a photo within a white frame I had set on my dresser.

The photo was of me and my mother from just before graduation. I hadn't wanted to take the picture with her, how- ever, she had coerced me into doing so. And because of it, I was grateful, because it was a part of her I got to keep.

"You didn't seem too pleased to take this photo with your mother," Freya said, catching me slightly off guard as I moved within the room closer to where she was standing. I knew the woman wouldn't cause me any harm, but after all of the is- sues I had with Inanna and Loki, I wasn't going to take any risks of trusting people so easily.

"Yeah, that was before my mother and I kind of fixed things with each other. I was rebellious when I lived there. And my mother got on my nerves, as every mother typically does with their daughters."

"Yet you miss her dearly," she replied in a very awkward kind of sense, as if she was trying to understand what the connection with my mother and I was.

"Well, of course, I do. Don't you miss your mother?" My question was hesitant, and as I stared at her, I watched her gaze slightly furrow before she placed the picture back upon the dresser and turned to me completely.

"That isn't important, but what is important is I have a sur- prise for you."

Not sure what the surprise was going to be, but as she took my hand and pulled me along back outside of my room and down the hallway in a different direction than I had ever been. I couldn't help but wonder why the surprise couldn't have waited until morning.

The last thing I wanted to do was go gallivanting around this damn place. All I wanted to do was crawl into bed in PJ's and possibly read a book or something, considering there was no damn TV.

"Freya, where are you taking me? It's late, and I want to go to bed," I whined slightly, not happy with the fact she was tak- ing me halfway across this massive palace of Odin's toward a wing that was explained as being restricted.

"Well, since you've taken upon your new position, there's no reason for you to stay in the room that you had. All of your stuff is going to be moved over in the morning, but for the time being, you're being placed in a different wing of the building."

She was literally moving me in the middle of the night to a new bedroom instead of just waiting for me to wake up in the morning refreshed after having spent a long period of time. speaking with people I had no interest in actually speaking with!
