I laugh and quickly get up. I’m not dumb enough to test whether or not he would really come and get me off the toilet.
As I climb over Cam’s gigantic body and move to the floor, I step on something that is definitely not hardwood. I jump, stumble, fall forward and come face to face with Oliver as I belly flop onto his chest. “
What the hell?!”
He coughs out as he stops me from scrambling around on him. “What happened? Are you okay Sky?”
He’s on full alert, eyes wide open and body tense as he grabs me by my upper arms, but doesn’t move any more than that.
“What are you doing on my floor?”
“Couldn’t sleep. I just kept getting a weird vibe. This is the only place that made it go away.”
He closes his eyes and lays his head back down, but not releasing me.
“Huh?!
He ignores me, “Is there something you needed? Or did you decide you are done snuggling the twins and are ready to share the love?”
He wraps his arms around me and starts to turn on his side.
“Oh no, I have to pee. Let me up before you are the reason I have an accident.”
I scramble away from him and almost trip on my brother’s feet at the foot of my bed.
“What is going on? What happened last night that made you guys think you all needed to be in here?”
I whisper yell at them. Which of course gets no reply.
They are all happily snoring, with no care in the world. I go to the bathroom and on my way back I notice a pile of blankets next to the fireplace. “
There’s no way.”
I whisper to myself. I tiptoed over and noticed sandy blonde waves and brown straight locks all messed together and coming out of the top of the blanket burrito Sam and Sierra were In.
What in the hell is going on? Why are all my friends in my room? This cannot be comfortable and I don’t smell alcohol on them, so! don’t think it is a drunken thing, but who knows. I’m too wide awake now to try and wiggle my way between the twins, so I grab Cam’s sweatshirt from the floor and head down to see what’s for breakfast.
As I head out I notice the doors to all the rooms on our floor are closed, even the media room. Weird.
The guys never close them unless they are in there. I head down to the second floor and all the guest rooms are closed as well, but I figure there are probably still visiting warriors here. I keep heading down towards the first floor intent on hitting the kitchen and checking in with Luna Ava about the sleeping arrangements. I didn’t eat as much as I should have yesterday after the trials. I was too busy talking to everyone.
As soon as I hit the landing, I’m stopped by a warrior.
“We are still on lockdown, you need to return to your room.”
I recognize this guy as one of the warriors from the final phase of trials. He’s a big guy, bigger than the Alpha King, my neck hurts from having to look up at him, and I am three steps above him.
“I don’t understand, I just came down for breakfast, what happened?”
I don’t move from my spot, my curiosity getting the better of me.
“We are still on lockdown, you need to return to your room.”
He repeats.
“Can you tell me when we went on lockdown? I went to bed early last night. The party was still going on when I went up to my room.”
“You live here? You’re not a guest we detained?”
He looks at me with his eyebrow raised.
Yes, I live on the third floor.”
He wants to give me vague answers, I will do the same. I cross my arms, not really to be intimidating, but more standing my ground. I wasn’t going to be intimidated. “Is anyone else awake? Can I talk to Luna Ava or Alpha Lucas? I don’t want to mindlink them if they are sleeping”
“The Alpha King has ordered everyone to stay in their rooms or in their homes for the time being. Please go back to your room.”
