Chapter 373
“There is only one bedroom available in the east wing.” Fiona said. “The others are the study, library and the wine cellar, along with the observatory.”
“Yeah.” Lily said.
And Jasmine knew that room, she had never been allowed to even step in.
She had passed the door a couple of times when she had earlier joined the pack.
She would see people occasionally coming in to clean and then go out, but that was about it.
No one stayed in it.
Not even when they had the halo festival and guests needed rooms.
No one had been assigned to that room.
“She would be staying in the room by the east wing.” He said.
Jasmine was stunned and then Fiona and Lily looked at each other.
Surprise was written on their face.
What was so special about this room that it had everyone surprised.
She could not decipher it.
Lily gave a smile. “Alright. Jasmine I hope you feel much much better. I would be going to take care of the rest of the chores.”
And with that Lily went off.
Jasmine liked Lily.
She had never had any issues with her.
She had never acted rude or mean to her. She hadn’t even been indifferent, she had been nice and casual to her.
Definitely what she expected from Xaden’s mate.
She had expected her to be as terrible as Anna, even worse.
But Lily had surprised her and that was why she felt guilty seeing the look of hurt on Lily’s face.
Xaden resumed walking up the way that led towards the east wing and then I found her up the steps.
Finally they reached the door of the room, Xaden opened it and they stepped inside.
It was the most beautiful room she had ever seen in her life.
It was at the rare end of the castle and the entire walls were filled with massive French windows.
There were large and beautiful curtains that hung to the side and the sunlight streaked in.
The bed in the center of the room was large and massive and the bedsheets were floral.
The poster bed boasted of beautiful wood and was as high as the ceiling itself.
There was a large mirror and a stunning vanity table and chair attached together.
There was a large fur rug on the floor and a beautiful fire place.
The entire room was divine.
He walked towards the bed and gently set her down.
She looked around confused.
“What’s going on? Why am I here?” Jasmine asked confused.
“You are going to be staying here from now on.” Xaden said as he walked over the fireplace and threw in a couple of log of woods.
“What?” Jasmine and Fiona said in unison.
“What what?” Xaden asked
Fiona blinked speaking up. “I don’t mean to sound like that. I’m just surprised.”
“Jasmine is fragile and Loren’s quarters really isn’t the best bet in her state.” He explained.
“What state?” Fiona asked lost.
“Jasmine is pregnant.” Xaden said as he lit the fire place.
Jasmine’s face went flush red in shame.
“What?” Fiona asked stunned looking at Jasmine. “Is this true?”
Jasmine nodded. “Yeah. We just found out. That’s why I was ill.”
Fiona hugged her in excitement. “Oh my God Jasmine that is amazing. You are going to have a little pup in how many
“I’m two months gone.” Jasmine said excited to finally share her bundle of joy with someone at least.
“That is amazing.” Fiona said looking her all over. “But why fall that ill? I’ve seen a couple of wolves pregnant and it’s never been this bad. I mean not in the early stages?”
“Technically I don’t qualify as a wolf.” Jasmine said. “I’m not shifted and Xaden is an Alpha. We were told it could be complicated.”
Fiona’s face became grim. “What do you mean complicated?”
“That’s why she needs to be as comfortable as she can be.” Xaden said as the fire in the fire place erupted. “This is the most comfortable room in the pack and it’s free I decided that she can stay here.”
Jasmine shifted uncomfortably.
Not even Anna’s room or even HIS own room was as good as this.
She doubted that Lily’s room would be as good either.
And yet here she was living like a Queen.
Anna was going to throw a fit when she found out.
As if on cue, the door was swung open and Anna came in.
“Xaden.” She said. “I heard you were back and I came to see you.”
She turned and saw Jasmine on the bed.
“How are you Jasmine?” She asked.
“I’m fine. Thank you for asking.” Jasmine responded.
Then Anna turned to Fiona. “Hey Fiona.”
Fiona’s face was turned away and refused to acknowledge Anna’s presence.
Anna ignored her and then turned to Xaden.
“What’s wrong? What happened?” And then she turned back to Jasmine. “When I heard you were ill I was so worried and I soon as I heard you two were back I had to come and see you for myself.”
Jasmine started to stutter unsure of how to respond and Xaden did for her.
“Jasmine is pregnant.” He said and her face went white.
She quickly hid her expression. “Wow. That’s amazing.”
Jasmine gave a fake smile.
She didn’t trust Anna and her show of concern or sharing excitement about the news of the baby.
She was surprise at Xaden’s sudden change of mind.
He had said that they would not say a word about the pregnancy, but now he was telling everyone.
She didn’t mind him telling people in the pack that she was pregnant.
But in face she minded him telling Anna.
She did not trust her.
Not one bit.
“So you’re staying here to rest?” Anna asked and then turned to Xaden. “I heard this was mom’s room.”
This was his mum’s room? And he was letting her stay.
“Yes. And this would be Jamsine’s new bedroom from now on.” Xaden said.
