I jumped out of the bed and look all the people moving around the room. Alice is the only person I recognize "My lady, is everything okay?" she asked. "W-What's going on?" I frowned in confusion.
She smiled before walking towards me. She gently held my arm and pulled me towards the chair placed in front of the vanity mirror.
"These are the people that's going to help you prepare, my lady," she answered.
"Prepare for what?" I asked once again. I felt ashamed to be asking the se**nts about these things when I should have known it before I came here. "I-I'm sorry. I really had no idea how these things works."
She responded with a smile. "You have nothing to worry about, my lady. We are here to be at your service," she assured me. "While you're sleeping, we already prepared a bath for you. Tell us when you're ready," she said.

As I take a moment to let everything sink in, the memories of last night events came rushing like a wild fire. My eyes widen in shock as I remember Lord Titus visited me in my chamber last night, especially what happened right after. My throat felt dry when images of Lord Titus pinning me on the bed as he run his tongue across my cheeks flashes right before my eyes.
My memories of last night events were vague but those are among the few that remains clear as day. However, the next thing that happened comes in a blur. All I could remember was that I feel hot all over my body, and I was screaming in pain. I needed. something to ease that pain. But I had no idea how did I manage to get through the night.

"Oh... okay," I replied, trying to keep my voice ready. Relief washed over me as I realized none of them had noticed anything annual If someone had discovered that a man had visited my chamber last night, I might already be facing dire consequences. Im ready for my both now I said, rising quickly from my chair and heading towards the bathroom, eager to put some distance between myself and the probing eyes of the palace staff.
I shut the bathroom door behind me, leaning against it for a moment as I took leep breath. The events of the previous night still swirled in my mind, a mix of fear and confusion. I couldn't afford to dwell on it now, not with so many eyes watching my every move. The cool, tiled floor felt soothing under my bare feet, grounding me back to the present.
The tub was already filled with warm, steaming water, the scent of lavender and rose petals wafting through the air. I undressed quickly, slipping into the bath and sinking down until the water covered my shoulders. The warmth enveloped me, relaxing my tense muscles and providing a brief relief away from the chaos that's circling around my head. As I lay there, I couldn't help but replay the strange events in my mind. The intensity of his gaze, the sudden surge of power within me, and the burning heat that had threatened to consume me all seemed like fragments of a bizarre dream.

nodded, accepting my explanation without further question. "I'll be right outside if you need anything," she said before closing the door quietly.
Alone again, I let my thoughts drift. I was still thinking about what happened last night. I may not be entirely sure, but I have my suspicion that I experience something called. "heat". However, what puzzles me was that how did my body become in heat when I haven't even gotten my wolf. Was that possible? Most importantly, was Lord Titus my mate?
