Ours novel Chapter 9

Nala POV

After our raid on the guys which is shockingly kind of fun, I never had someone to play jokes on like this. Kyle dragged me back to the room I woke up in, he gave me a puppy eye look and asked to do my hair.

Who could say no to that face? I sat down on the bed while he retrieved a hairbrush and started brushing my hair.

It was so therapeutic I was enjoying it way too much. When was the last time someone brushed my hair for me, maybe about ten years ago? I can only remember a few bits and pieces of my mother brushing my hair for me and that's about it.

"You don't need any makeup, you are beautiful"

His words made me blush nobody called me beautiful, for the first time in so long I see that my hair doesn't look like a bird's nest and it's not thrown into a messy bun. Kyle brushed it and put it in a half up half down ponytail.

I changed into some fresh jeans that have seen some better days and a pink T-shirt not in a much better condition either.

"What size are you sugar? You are so petite I can probably buy you stuff from the kids' section"

I gave Kyle my best dark look saying "heyyy I'm not that small and you guys are giants" I say with a pout which only made him laugh.

The rest of the day was spent relatively peacefully, Kyle went to order some clothes for me although I tried to tell him there is no need. My protest fell on deaf ears, Kyle kept talking about how cute I'll look and how excited he is to dress me.

"You are his new Barbie Doll" Kane comment when I tried to ask for his help to rein his crazy twin.

I discovered that Kyle is actually a private stylist and he loves to dress everyone in the house. My fight against him is a lost war so I gave up and left him to do his shopping.

I spent most of the day hanging in the family room with Mathew and Zach we watched movies and played PlayStation.

I would've thought that two guys will want to watch some action movies like die-hard or fast and furious. But instead, we watched Disney movies, me and Mathew ganged on Zach and watched Cinderella my favorite movie, we watched it 3 times.

I didn't have work tonight so it was pretty chill, and I was having fun. Around five Jace came and called us over to help with dinner, everyone help and compensate for the housework.

Jace put both boys to work while asking me if I want a cookie, he said I'm a princess and can sit out while they work. I accepted the cookie offer. The Coooookkkkies, best chocolate chip cookies ever were to die for.

I listened to guys whining about being forced to chop and cut vegetables that they don't even like while I get a treat but Jace told them to shut it and get back to work. It was fine by me.

"Okay baby, can you set the table for me?" Jace asked me nicely and I nodded.

Nala POV

I'm snuggling into Marcus' side my head is on his chest where I can hear a steady heartbeat. I never felt safer.

We decided on another Disney movie, but after Zach jumped and screamed

"NO MORE CINDERELLA"

We're watching the jungle book. Imagine living with a wolf it must be better than humans. I smile at my own thoughts and close my eyes

The next time I wake up I'm being lifted, I look up and it's Ryland who's carrying me. Once in my room, he goes fetch a new PJ a pink one with hello kitty all over it. I love it. He helps me put it on while I blush and try to pry his hands away.

He then lifts me and takes me to the bathroom a new purple toothbrush is waiting for me he tells me to brush my teeth and go potty! Like I'm a little child.

I got out to find Rayland sitting on my bed, he actually tucked me in, gave me my teddy Leo kissed my forehead. I can't remember the last time someone did this, feeling safe and loved in a warm, comfy bed.

Before he left Rayland turned on a night light in the shape of a wolf. I was so grateful for the light, I'm scared of the dark but I wouldn't admit it in front of them.
