Chapter 11: Moonsphere

Violet had never truly considered Nancy's trailer a home, and standing in this room made that painfully clear. She was left speechless by the sheer luxury surrounding her.

The expansive space boasted polished dark wooden floors that gleamed under the soft lighting. Four towering four-poster canopy beds, each fit for a princess, draped in crisp white sheets with plush pillows. Matching wardrobes and executive desks accompanied each bed, adding an air of sophistication.

Thankfully, the walls hadn't been painted a garish Barbie pink, otherwise, Violet would have thrown up on the spot. Instead, a dreamy blend of pastel pinks, blues, and purples washed over the room, evoking the whimsical sweetness of cotton candy.

A cozy bookshelf stood by the far end, but the true crown jewel of the space was the flat-screen TV mounted on the wall. At the sight of it, Violet nearly forgot any trespasses this school had committed against her. This was fucking paradise.

There was a door to the side, and Violet guessed it led to the bathroom. Mary had mentioned that while each room in the west house had its own private bathroom, there was also a coed communal one "just in case of emergencies."

Violet had shuddered at the thought, unable to imagine what kind of emergency would drive her to use a coed bathroom.

This school scared her more than she wanted to admit. There seemed to be less focus on learning and more on... activities, if you caught her drift.

Thank God the rooms weren't coed as well.

Violet couldn't help but wonder, If the room was this grand, the bathroom would no doubt be just as luxurious. She was tempted to check it out immediately but reminded herself she'd see it soon enough when she bathed later. No need to get too excited just yet.

It wasn't hard to find her bed—her roommates had already claimed the others, and her bag from earlier sat neatly on the unoccupied one. Violet set her satchel down and turned to face the trio, who were still staring at her, wide-eyed.

"Hi, I'm Violet. Also, could one of you tell me if there's something on my back? Because all the staring is starting to creep me out," she said, hands on her hips, meeting their gazes head-on.

A girl with short, choppy blonde hair suddenly hopped up from her bed and approached Violet. Her disarming smile caught Violet's attention immediately, and she couldn't help but notice the girl's petite frame and high cheekbones. She looked more like a delicate fairy than a human.

"Hi, I'm Lila Meadows," she introduced herself in a chirpy voice, extending her hand with far more enthusiasm than Violet expected. "It's so nice to meet you, Violet Purple," she added, as if they'd been friends for years.

Violet blinked, taken aback by the sudden familiarity. Before she could ask any questions, Lila had already thrown an arm around her, steering her towards the others. "And that's Daisy Fairchild over there."
