CHAPTER 15: WARDROBE
Lucifer stared at Morrigan when he entered the music conservatory the next day. ‘You look stunning’ Morrigan smiled ‘Aphrodite gave me a makeover’ Lucifer laughed ‘Of course she did’ He said ‘Aphrodite’s Festival of Love is coming up’ Morrigan nodded ‘Yes, she gave us invitations’ she looked at him ‘She said she would invite Princess Cal too’ He smiled ‘Good, I like that girl. She has spunk’
They worked on all the new songs they had been doing, and then Lucifer pulled out two new ones for her to learn. She shone as she sang. Lucifer looked at her adoringly. He smiled and pushed her for perfection. She seemed to relish the challenge.
They finished off with recall. She sang and played song after song. When there was two parts, he sang the male part and harmonized with her beautifully.
Odelle listened outside the door. Dame Charlotte came and stood with her. ‘Morrigan is breathtaking’ Odelle nodded ‘Did you see her makeover?’ Charlotte shook her head ‘No’ Odelle said ‘The Goddess Aphrodite did it. Morrigan, Jupiter and Israfel stumbled into a temple for Aphrodite when they were exploring yesterday. She invited them to go to the Festival of Love in the Celestial City’ Charlotte's eyes widened ‘That is amazing’
They sat in Dame Charlotte's sitting room and had tea. Odelle told her about Jupiter buying a hotel. Dame Charlotte smiled ‘I am not surprised with a father like his. He is probably eager to see him financially set up in case the plague kills them’
Odelle nodded sadly ‘Yes, Morrigan said they don’t realize that every time they talk about their will, or what will happen if they are gone, its like a knife in the gut for Jupiter’
Charlotte sipped her tea sadly ‘Yes, we must be careful how we talk about the plague’ Odelle said ‘I was only six, but I don’t remember you or daddy dying. At least you know that’ Charlotte nodded ‘Yes, it is a comfort’ Odelle said ‘I hope I make it through, but if not, I fully support Morrigan and Jupiter’s relationship. They are soulmate bonded. If they decide to move into the hotel together and I am gone, please just allow it’ Charlotte nodded tearily ‘I promise I will’
When Odelle, got home, Morrigan was eating a sandwich reading a book about weaving techniques. Morrigan said ‘Is it okay if I sleep at Israfel’s on Friday night? We thought we would go spend some time in the Celestial City’ Odelle nodded ‘As long as I know where you are, it is okay’
Odelle said ‘Max asked me to go on a date on Friday night’ Morrigan put her book down and smiled ‘Wow. Where is he taking you?’ Odelle said ‘A fancy restaurant in the theatre district called ‘Exquisite’ Morrigan smiled ‘Good for you’ Odelle said ‘I am not sure what to wear’ Morrigan said ‘You can borrow anything of mine. I have some fancy dresses now’
Morrigan took Odelle into her room and showed her some of the dresses from the light festival. Odelle gaped at them ‘These are amazing but I think I am too old for a bare back’ Morrigan laughed. ‘I wonder what I should wear for the Festival of Love?’ Odelle said ‘You can ask when you are up there’ Morrigan nodded ‘Yes, that’s a good idea’
They heard a knock on Morrigan’s station door. She smiled and opened it. Jupiter came in smiling. He pulled her into a kiss. Morrigan laughed ‘It’s nice to see you too’ Odelle said ‘Hi Jupiter’ red crept up his neck. He smiled ‘Hello’
Odelle left them too it, and Morrigan closed her bedroom door. She kissed Jupiter passionately. He laughed and cuddled her on her bed. ‘Do you want to go to the hotel?’ Morrigan smiled ‘sure. What should we bring?’ he smiled ‘um towels. I thought maybe we could go through the papers in the study and get the bedroom habitable.’ Morrigan smiled ‘Good idea’ She packed a bag and then told Odelle where they were going.
Odelle said ‘Its quite hot out there, how about I drive you over. I am keen to see the hotel?’ they agreed and got in Odelle’s car.
Odelle was amazed when they stepped into the lobby and the room brightened in response to Jupiter’s greeting. ‘This hotel is stunning’ Morrigan and Jupiter nodded beaming at her.
They headed up to Jupiter’s study and set to work looking through the papers. Morrigan said ‘This is interesting’ she pulled out a notebook ‘Bills for all kinds of services. You are likely to have them all again. Laundry service, alcohol, food, staff pays, repairs, costume, flowers, gardener’ They went through the receipts.
Odelle looked through the books on the shelves. She gasped at some. She looked up at Jupiter ‘These books are quite rare. Don’t throw any away. If they are unwanted, you could sell them’ Jupiter nodded ‘We actually saw a whole library on the third floor’ Odelle looked stunned.
They walked Odelle through the hotel and showed her all the amazing rooms. ‘This is truly amazing. Thank you for showing it to me. Are you guys planning on being here for a while?’ they nodded ‘Okay, then I will head home. Will you be back for dinner?’ Morrigan looked at Jupiter. He nodded ‘Yes, we will be back for dinner’ They let Odelle out and locked the door behind her.
They headed up to the study again and then into the suite. Morrigan pulled off the bed sheets and checked the mattress. She bounced on it. ‘It seems okay. It will need fresh sheets’. He nodded ‘Okay, put them here. I can buy new ones or wash them’ They looked in the bathroom. It was surprisingly clean. Jupiter turned the tap on. The water was brown at first but cleared quickly. He pulled the plug and let the dirty water go down. He checked the shower worked and then flushed the toilet.
Morrigan looked in the closet and gasped. It still had clothing. She pulled out some clothing bags and opened them, laying her discoveries on the mattress. She found many classic stunning dresses. She pulled off her dress and tried them all on. Jupiter watched her adoringly and then discovered the wardrobe had a men’s section. They had fun trying it all on. Jupiter said ‘Would you care for a bath?’ Morrigan smiled ‘Sure, it is lucky I bought those towels’ Jupiter fetched the towels from Morrigan’s bag and turned the bath on. When it was full, they got in. Morrigan grinned as he rubbed up against her. ‘We should bring some bath oil and shampoo and body wash’ Jupiter nodded ‘Good idea. I will have to make a list’ He kissed down her neck and sucked her nipple. She gasped. She wrapped her legs around him and he moved her up against the side of the bath. He rubbed her clit and slid a finger into her before she felt his cock slide in balls deep. He held her up against the side of the bath and slid his cock in and out of her until they were both panting. They went over the edge together and their soulmate bond lit up the bathroom. Morrigan said ‘Candles. We should bring some’ Jupiter kissed her adoringly ‘good idea’
They reluctantly got out of the bath and got dressed again. They found a large linen closet and pulled out some fresh sheets. They put them in a bag to take home and wash. Morrigan said ‘I wonder if they have washing facilities here?’
They went down to the concierge desk and looked in all the draws and through the papers. They found a guest map and a map for the staff. It was fascinating to see what all the rooms were used for. They had guest washing machines. They wrote down clothes washing powder on their list of things to bring. Morrigan said ‘We should plan a pool party’ Jupiter nodded and kissed her. ‘Good idea. Let’s make it in a couple of weeks. Then we can make a large section habitable. We could all stay the night?’ Morrigan smiled ‘Good idea. I guess we just have to do it one section at a time’ Jupiter nodded.
They went back up to the study and Morrigan grabbed her bag. ‘Is it alright if I take this dress?’ she said picking up an adorable red dress, ‘oh and this one’ she pointed at a purple dress. He laughed ‘They are all yours’ She gave him a huge smile and kissed him. They put the clothes back in their bags. Jupiter took a few things home as well. They had so much stuff, that they decided to get a town car home. Jupiter signaled one and they went back to Morrigan’s house. Security came over and helped them with their stuff. Jupiter paid the driver and they headed to Gatehouse one.
Odelle loved the dresses Morrigan had brought home. Morrigan excitedly told her about the full wardrobe they had found.
They had dinner and then Jupiter headed home through his station door with his bags of things. They planned to meet at Izzy’s station door at 9am the next day.
