I smiled.
“That’s very kind of you,” I told her. “But I’m okay for right now. Maybe later?”
She nodded.
“Of course,” she said thoughtfully.
Taylor turned me.
“I have to leave now but Gavin will be here later,” he assured me. “Harper will take you to your room and help you get settled.”
I nodded.
“Thank you, Taylor,” I said to him.
He nodded and then after a final goodbye, he left the mansion. I turned to Harper who kept a sweet smile on her lips.
“It’s nice to have someone to serve,” she said sweetly. “Alpha Gavin is here sometimes, but not nearly as much. It gets boring taking care of an empty house after a while.”
“I’m sure,” I chuckled. “I’m glad to be here.”
“Let me show you to your room,” she said sweetly.
As we walked up the stairs, she started to explain all the things this mansion had to offer. There was a library, a garden, an outdoor pool with a hot spring, and each bedroom had its own bathroom. I was used to having my own bathroom, so it was going to be nice to have that again.
When we reached the second floor, we walked down the wide and brightly lit corridor until we reached my room.
She stepped into the room first and my mouth fell open. Not only was it much bigger than the room I spent my entire life in, but it also had all my stuff. Even the bed had my comforter and sheets on it; all my pictures and awards were neatly placed on dressers and shelves. My books were on the bookshelf and as Taylor said, my schoolwork, along with my backpack, was on the desk on the far side of the room which sat in front of the large window that overlooked the packland.
There was another large bay window on the other side of the room that overlooked the gardens, and, in the distance, I could see the pool and the hot spring.
There was a vanity that held my makeup and hair supplies, and I wasn’t surprised when I peeked into the bathroom and saw that all my toiletries were already placed in their rightful spots. The bathroom included a large shower and a separate whirlpool tub, along with a toilet and plenty of counter space.
“The closet has all your clothes,” Harper said as I stepped out of the bathroom. She had the walk–in closet door opened and I peeked my head in to see it filled with all my clothes, along with a few new things that I didn’t recognize.
“Some of these aren’t mine,” I told her.

She nodded and bit her lip.
“Some of the clothes that you brought to the Cash major looked deliberately ruined,” she admitted.
I sighed and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. I knew it had to be because of Kelsey. I’m not sure when she went into my room and destroyed my clothes, but it had to have been recently because I didn’t notice it.
“So, I went shopping and bought you a few new outfits. I hope you don’t mind. I couldn’t find the exact outfits, so I improvised,” she said, peeking up at me.
“You didn’t have to do that,” I told her. “I would have been fine without them and even so, I could have replaced them myself.”
She shrugged.
“Gavin insisted that I got you some new clothes; it was his money that was spent so it’s not a big deal,” she assured me.
I sighed.
I’m not sure if that’s better or worse, but I didn’t want to seem ungrateful and complain so I only thanked her once again.
“I hope everything is to your liking,” she said, glancing around at the room as we stepped out of the closet.
“It’s perfect, Harper. Thank you,” I told her.
She nodded, looking pleased with herself.
“If you need anything, don’t hesitate to call me. You can either come find me or call or text me on your phone. I took the liberty of putting my number in your contacts,” she told me as she pointed to my phone charging on the nightstand. I was relieved to see it and I smiled gratefully. “Unfortunately, we can’t mindlink because you aren’t officially part of this pack. So, that’ll have to do for now.
“We could change that,” a deep voice said from the doorway, making me freeze entirely. “If you pledged yourself to me that is.”
