5 Meeting the assignment (2)

The house had nice interior decorating, nothing I havent seen before. But luxury was one thing that never really caught my attention. I was dragged to what felt to be forever throught stairs and hallways. Until we reached a double door entrance aligned with gold swirls around the edge to add a semi-empress feel to it.

"This is our room, I always wanted a roommate or somebody to talk to apart from the staff in this place. So this is a blessing for me." Alicia grasped my hand harder as she said this, but I didnt react much only gave a small nod. She opened the doors to reveal a massive room which were decorated to look like a college dorm. There was two of everything, except restroom which had to be shared. We walked in and I observed the surroundings, the openings, exits, view, any escape route, etc. But she of course thought I was in full awe mode.

"I know it's great, living together in this luxurious room, with everything we could want and more. Oh before I forget I decided to go ahead and decorate your side a bit. I was told you like dark colors so I decided to find a way to incorporate it with my original pink theme. I decided to use a black bedding with..." Alicia went on a rant about the decoration and the emphasis one the enviroment. I stopped paying attention after a while. What my attention was one was her appearance, she truly was the perfect daughter of the White Howlers pack.

She had brown hair with streaks of golden highlights, bright hazel eyes that carried so much energy, and skin that glowed as if she herself was the sunset. She was pretty, I'll give her that. But this evaluation was only to engrave her current image, to check that no new marks or anything of the sort show up on her on my watch.

"...and that's about it. I hope you like it, took me days to piece everything together." She finally finished her rant. I nodded my head and gave a slight smile.

"You really dont talk much do you? Well that's fine with me when we're here, but out there your going to have to speak up. There's no way to avoid that," she lectured me.

"Sorry I didnt mean to make you uncomfortable or anything, it's just my way of being. I'll keep that in mind," I replied not even a second later.

She stared at me with a confused look. "You know you dont look at all how you were described by my dad. He said that you carried the physical traits of the main family, he made it sound so scary. But you have a neutral look, neither gentle or scary."

Now it was my turned to make an annoyed facial expression, except mine was only visible for a second. So she didnt catch it. "I have to change my appearance when I'm in the outside world, just for precautionary reasons," I comment with a sarcastic tone, which she obviously didn't catch either.

"Well that explains so much, in that case can you go back to your original appearance. I need to see what you truly look like if we're going to be close friends at least," Alicia demands with a new serious tone.

"Sure, no problem but I'm going to bathe first if you dont mind."
