she shyly ducked her head and continued inside.
Chapter 22
Sure enough, dinner did come shortly later. It was a yummy dinner of fish and rice, which Miley could get use to. Cain had carried it inside and set it on the small table.
Max and Derek arrived with Miley’s luggage and placed everything that she did not need in a storage room, such as her tent and sleeping bag. She thanked them both for the care they had taken when packing her things.
Cain stood watch as Miley interacted with both the boys and as soon as they were gone he told her there was a bedroom in the back for when she decided she was tired and if she truly needed anything outside.
What she did not expect though when she went into the bedroom to change, was the gorgeous view. Miley really did not bother to move the curtains in the living room but she was sure it would have the same sight.
The bedroom was beautiful , but it made her nervous. Miley noticed just how truly open the home was. The room was completely open, sheer curtains swished in the breeze. The view was a lagoon and the only thing separating her from it was large glass French doors and windows finishing off one whole wall. An entire wall made out of glass. Miley was sure she had left behind the ocean but it was water none the less.
Miley’s eyes explored the cream walls and beautiful paintings lining them. The floor was wood with beautiful exotic coloring to it and the bed… Well the bed hung suspended from thick woven ropes at the edge of the room overlooking the water.
Miley noticed a flowing waterfall at the far side and a sharp mountain cliff surrounding it. The cliff was covered in a soft green moss, which must have been from all the mist floating in the air.
Without looking around anymore, Miley turned around and began to strip her clothing. The spring dress, which she had been given, and now wearing was excessively cold for the night. It was about time she changed.
Piece by piece her clothing dropped to the floor. When she was standing there naked, looking for more clothing to put on a sound alerted her she was no longer alone. A rumbling purr flowed around her; Miley yelped and yanked the blanket from the bed, wrapping it around herself. “AH!” She screamed as she turned around and found two men ogling her suggestively raising their eyebrows at her on the other side of the glass window.
“Miley?” Max and Cain came bursting in. Nick had taken off to home, for the night and would return to guard her in the morning.
Miley whipped around as Max and Cain entered the room and screamed at them too. “What’s …” Max began as he approached her slowly.
His eyes flit up and he noticed the two guards at the window grinning from ear to ear, turning his attention back down to Miley he noticed what was covering her. Smiling slightly he said “Are you naked?”
“Max!” Cain snapped.
“What?” Max asked turning his head back to Cain. “Look at those idiots and they are supposed to be guarding her not eye raping her.”
Cain’s head snapped over to the window and he growled. “Take her out of here,” he hissed.
Since Miley was an unmated female, even though human, on the island it did not give any of the males a chance to peep for her arrival. Cain had trusted the two men out there to be good guards and make sure that Miley did not sneak out. NOT… ogle her as she changed and slept.
Cain stomped forward and through the sheer curtains onto the deck. “What do you think you are doing?” He hissed.
“Just watching as she changed. We weren’t harming anyone,” one of the men muttered.
“This …” Cain growled . “Is not acceptable. You two go to the front of the house. Guard the front door! Idiots,” Cain hissed.
He turned around and stomped through the bedroom. After he had made his way out of the bedroom, he was even more shocked by the way, that Max was acting.
Miley whimpered as she held the blanket firmly around her body. Max purred in satisfaction,
