Chapter Fourteen

Spending a few hours in Rena’s rooms, the four women went over all that had happened in the span of a few short hours. Trying to determine, not only their next course of action pending the Impure attack; but also wondering what Diana would find on her arrival in Wolfhaven.

Mason returned to her own room. Evening was beginning to set in and she was exhausted. Having already eaten a light dinner, and feeling a bit more relaxed after a hot bath. Mason was surprised at the knock on her door since it was fairly late at night. Rising from where she’d been reclining on her bed, allowing her mind to drift till her thoughts quieted themselves. She walked to the door. Reaching out and opening it, her surprise was compounded by the sight of Rena on the other side.

Frowning in concern, Mason pulled the door open wider.

“Rena? Is everything alright?” she asked. The Princess smiled at her softly.

“Yes. I just couldn’t sleep. I thought I’d take a chance, see if you were still up and if you would like some company.” Rena explained. Seeing the other woman was dressed for bed in loose pants and an old sleeveless shirt, she quickly added “But I can see that you’re ready to turn in, so I’ll just go.” She turned to leave but Mason reached out, gently catching her hand. Returning her smile, amused, she swung the door wider. Stepping back, Mason gestured for Rena to enter.

“It’s okay, Rena. Come in. I’m finding it difficult to sleep as well. And yes, I always welcome your company.” Receiving a small, shy smile from the younger woman, Mason quietly closed the door once Rena stepped inside. Turning back, she noticed the brunette fidgeting nervously. “Are you sure everything is okay, Rena?” Mason pressed again, walking closer.

Rena turned, a bit taken aback at how closely the older woman stood to her. She kept forgetting how quickly and quietly her companion could move. She smiled up at her, releasing an anxious breath. It had taken several hours for her to talk herself into making the trip to Mason’s room. Still reeling from the pace at which her relationship with the Kahlian was developing but unable to deny the insistent need to be close to her or the affection that had settled deep in her heart for the beautiful woman. After finding out that the woman’s entire world had just imploded, Rena found herself wanting nothing more than to be able to ease Mason’s pain.

“Honestly?” Rena began, warmed by Mason’s concern for her in the face of her own woes. “I came here to ask you that very question.” She admitted in a hushed voice. Feeling the need to be quiet considering how late it was.

Mason blinked at her response.

“I’m fine.” She told her, stepping around her to walk over to her bed. Pulling the covers back, Mason tucked a leg under her as she sat sideways on the mattress. Rena’s couldn’t help the look of disbelief that flashed across her face.
