Chapter 77: *…found an anchor.*

Alora explored her new room and was a little overwhelmed by the size of it. Her old room could fit in the walk–in closet she found in her sitting room. The fact that she had a sitting room felt unreal to Alora. The bedroom closet was so big, Alora didn’t know if she would ever have enough clothes to fill it. Her meager belongings barely took up any space in the closet.

The bathroom had more amenities than even the master bath at Bettina’s. There was a two–person bathtub and standing shower combo behind a wall of glass. The toilet was enclosed in a large water closet. Another closet–like enclosure held a small sauna. The dual sinks had a built–in vanity between them, with floor to ceiling cabinets on either side of the sink.

After she finished unpacking, something that took her less than ten minutes, she decided to shower. It took a bit for Alora to figure out how the shower worked. After adjusting the water to her desired temperature, Alora took the longest shower of her life. It was so freeing not having to worry about who would barge into the bathroom on her. There was no worry she was going to be stared at while bathing. No worry she would be dragged out of the shower to a basement of horrors naked.

In the shower there were hair masks, sugar scrubs, facial mud masks, face scrubs, body washes, bath and body massage oils, and different types of shampoos and conditioners. All of it was in her favorite brand. Getting out of the shower, Alora found the shelf with towels next to the shower was heated. Alora also found an assortment of face and body lotions, and conditioner leave–ins on the bathroom vanity. Opening drawers she found a brand–new hairbrush and comb, along with a variety of hair things. Another drawer had an assortment of dental care products. In another drawer there was an assortment of single use facial masks, under eyes masks, and lip masks.

Opening the cabinet to one side, Alora found a hair dryer with attachments. There was also a curling iron with attachments, and a straightener. Alora didn’t think she would be using anything but the hair dryer out of that cabinet. In another cabinet, she found a few perfumes, and deodorants that were friendly to those with heightened olfactory senses. Alora had never had so much to choose from when taking a shower or bath before. By the time she left the bathroom, she felt pampered and spoiled.

Alora put on a black pair of loose drawstring pants, and a black crop tank top with a built- in bra and silver colored zipper. Alora grabbed her phone off the nightstand beside her new intimidatingly large bed, she checked the time. There was still plenty of time before dinner, and Damien wouldn’t be calling her till after dinner. Since there was time, Alora decided a

little meditation to connect with Selena and Xena was in order. Besides, she wanted to get to know her Sprite better.

With that thought in mind, Alora got onto the large bed and crawled to the middle to sit in a lotus position. The bed was a wolf king size, and very comfortable. It was like she was sitting on a soft cloud floating in the sky, instead of sitting on a bed. Alora supposed she shouldn’t have been surprised by all the luxury she was now being exposed to. This was the Moonstar Mansion, and it was home to the Alpha of Alphas of this continent.

against the willow tree, facing the pond. A gentle breeze rustled branches, leaves, flowers, and all the other foliage in their space. The breeze brought with it the sweet scents from all the plant life. The calming effect it had on Alora was felt immediately. It was like all the stress
