Ch 70

Snow was just shaking her head with Mia standing at her side as each man had to get a hug from both of the girls. Snow knew that not all the crew were all that attached to the girls but none of them were going to turn down the chance to get a hug from these two pretty girls.

Snow waited patiently as the last of the men got their hugs. Then Snow clipped the leashes on the girls. Katie rolled her eyes. She really hated this part of being led around on a leash, but if it was keeping them all safe then it was worth a little humiliation while they were being walked around.

Snow knew that they could carry their own bags, but she wanted the men around just in case. It was better to have a large group of people around when you don't know what you will be facing. Once the girls were all leashed Will led the way with Snow following directly behind him. Then the girls were clustered together with two of the crew following behind them.

Will knew just the place to stay there were only 3 places that offered rooms and Will knew that Snow would not want to sleep in the cheapest one. The rooms were just barely big enough to move around in. Not to mention that there were 4 of them that were going to be in the same room. He doubted that she was going to get them their own rooms, but it was going to be up to her.

Will and Snow noticed at the same time that every eye in the place was tracking their movements. To Snow, it looked like every eye was following them and they were all guys. What was worse was it looked like some of them were starting to follow them at least from a distance. She could tell that they were trying to see where they were going.

Snow was glad that she had convinced the captain to have the men sent along with them. Will pointed out the three hotels and let her know what he knew about each one. It took snow no time to decide which one they would be staying at. Once they reached the hotel Snow thanked Will and the guys for their assistance. She was ready to go in but had to wait till Katie and Gina said their goodbyes to Will and the others. Snow shook her head she knew it was going to take time to say goodbye to Will, they were a lot more attached to him than the others. She had not expected this huge mean bully of a sailor to be on the verge of tears saying goodbye to the girls.

Snow just smiled thinking that the girls are good at touching the hearts of those that they come in contact with. Snow and Mia just stood there and waited, but it was not all that long because Will didn't want anyone to notice that he was starting to get emotional over it.

Gina smiled up at Will letting him know that she saw it but would never tell. Will just thought that she was just too much like his own daughters. Will gave them a final wave without looking back as the men headed back to the ship.

Snow led the girls in, and the manager gave them the biggest smile. He knew instantly that having 4 beautiful women come to his place was going to boost all his profits for as long as they were there. James was a tall and very thin man who had a well-trimmed mustache and very short trimmed black hair. He was dressed in a very fine suit, and you could tell just by looking at him that everything he did with pride and tried for perfection. Whether it was how he looked or whatever he was doing.

Snow was used to dealing with people who had power. She could tell just from looking at him that he was the same way. He was used to only dealing with someone who had money and power. She knew just how he was going to act before he even opened his mouth. Snow watched his eyes light up as he saw that she had the girls with her. At first, she thought that he might have protested that she was bringing her slaves to stay but she guessed that it showed that she was rich and powerful if she was traveling with three beautiful girl slaves.

Snow requested 2 adjoining rooms. He thought nothing about it knowing that the owner hardly ever let the slaves sleep in the room that they were in but would want them close enough for the slaves to take care of any needs that they would have.

James nodded and was thinking about what the best adjoining rooms for her would be then asked, "Do you know how long you will be needing the rooms for?"

Snow said, "We will be attending a trial and will be here till it is concluded."

James had heard that there was some kind of rich guy who was going to trial and was going to be starting within a day or two. Half of his hotel was already filled with the guy's attorneys. He figured that the woman was tied up in it one way or the other. But based on her looks he could have guessed that she was his girlfriend or something. He had heard how much money the guy had been throwing around at the prison and figured that he better set this one up with his very best room.

Snow was ready to be without the drama for a while. She just wanted to let the three girls be girls and have fun. She knew that they had arrived 1 day before the trial so that in case the ship ran into trouble, they would still be able to make it on time and not miss anything. She knew that both Katie and Gina needed answers. Even if it was going to be hard for Katie to hear everything.

Snow thought that they were going to be able to walk around tomorrow and investigate the shops that were around, but as they made their way to the hotel, she saw that there were no real shops to any degree. She thought that when they awoke, they would check things out and take it from there.

James offered to personally show them to their rooms when Snow said, "Just point the directions will be fine, and have some breakfast delivered to our rooms in the morning at 7."

James said, "Very good. Will you be needing anything else? Your rooms are on the top floor. I gave you the presidential sweet that way the girls will have their own place in your room. I hope that is satisfactory with you."

Snow nodded that was going to be the best thing for them, but she had not thought that this place would have anything that fancy.

James said, "I can have someone come and deliver your bags to your room. If you just let them be."

Snow signaled to the girls to have them put all the bags together to have them delivered.

James said, "We have some of the most delicious food on the island. Are you sure you wouldn't want some food or snacks brought up to your room once you are settled?"

Snow waved him off thinking if they wanted food that they would simply contact him when they were ready. They simply went to the room that reminded them of the mansion that Kathy had. The only thing that they were going to be missing now was the race down the stairs to see who was going to cook with the chef.

Mia finally got what she had been waiting for. No more kitchen duties, at least as long as they were here in the hotel. She doubted that Snow would let them cook for the hotel, even if they wanted to.

As they opened the door, they all were impressed by the room and there was no wonder why he had said it was the best room in the place. Snow had seen some rooms that were set up this way, but she usually didn't ask for them unless she was with other people traveling somewhere. When it was just easier to stay in a huge room, that way they all slept and awoke at the same time.

Snow said, "You girls go get set up in the room over there." She pointed to the bedroom that had two queen-sized beds.

Katie was the first one that Snow let off the leash, but she was not going to take the collar off until they got back on a ship, and they were safe once again. Katie was not happy about the collar staying on, but she understood why it had to. Gina was next to be unleashed and Snow thought that it was so cute the way that Gina nuzzled her hand as she was removing it.

While Snow was removing Mia's leash she said, "We haven't had much alone time would you like to spend the night in my room with me."

Mia got the biggest smile at the invitation. There was a little sadness in the fact that she would not be with the other two, or more specifically that she would not be sleeping holding Gina. But she was not about to turn down the opportunity to cuddle next to Snow.

Snow said, "You girls get ready for bed. You will need some rest. We have no idea what tomorrow will hold."

They all nodded and put their things in the room dressed for bed. By the time Mia was ready Snow was already in bed and Mia crawled in and snuggled up next to her.

Katie was so relieved she had a whole bed to herself now and Gina was a little sad that she was sleeping alone. She liked it when she had someone to cuddle up next to. But at least this was going to give Gina and Katie some time to talk everything over without anyone else listening in on it. Gina could see that the pressure and stress were starting to bother Katie. With only one more day before they were going to hear all the bad things that he had been hiding from them. Gina could not wait to find out what really happened to her parents.

 The two stayed up late talking and Gina saw just how sad Katie was becoming worried about what was going to happen to her family.
