Chapter 34. Welcome to Mallow Hotel! How May I Be of Service?
Michael Angelo
So this is Mallow Hotel.
It's a very tall and wide building, with six floors and a parking lot as large as a football field. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Its structure is clean and simple. No complicated designs or patterns whatsoever.
There are no bright colors to see either; just plain white and neutral colors covered the surface...
But what really caught my attention was the property's surrounding area, encircled by vast hectares of nature and white beach.
Like tranquility meets peace in one setting… it was stunning.
A tug on my shoulder snapped me out of my trance and when I look down at my passenger seat, I saw Blessy pouting.
“What is it, little one?” I gently asked.
She raised an eyebrow at me before saying, “Can we go outside now, Mikee? Please? I'm starting to go nuts from sitting here, in this car, for another minute.”
I chuckled at her sassy command before stepping out of my car and as if it was a cue, the boys also stepped out of their Lamborghinis.
Yes, our rides were all Lamborghinis. Different models but still, all Lambos.
Not to boast, but we like our cars fast and flashy...
We're royalty werewolves; we own fancy things and live for speed, so what did you expect?
‘Everything alright, Alpha?’ Lucky quickly mind linked me.
He sounded alert and worried.
Even at a vacation, a BETA is a BETA.
I only nodded in his direction, gesturing that everything was okay, and went on to open Blessy's door.
Instantly, the little she-wolf jumped gracefully out of the car and went to do cartwheels and flips on the cemented pavement.
Yes, she's that athletic at the age of seven...
And yes, she does that every time boredom hits her or just tired from sitting still and doing nothing for a long period of time.
Well, we have traveled far, for five hours and just in a car...
Yep, a long ride it was, and our wolves hated the confinement and stillness — brought by the car and travel.
I certainly understand her...
Still, I couldn't help but rolled my eyes at my little sister's stunts — she's just overly dramatic.
While for the boys, they just laughed at her.
Out of nowhere, five bell men appeared from the corner of the lot and took our luggage and car keys from us. Then, they proceeded on leading us to the lobby.
I may say, once we entered the resort, it was far more grand and elegant than what I anticipated.
The interior of the space, compared to the exterior, was intricately designed and well- thought of.
The floors were all tiled up with the cleanest slabs of marble and stones. While the ceilings were built high and fully decorated with the finest glass chandeliers and fairy lights.
Then there are the walls which are all glamoured up by unique paintings and other lovely arts and crafts. Plants and flowers are part of the display as well, but it was set in a way that it lights up the room providing a fresh look instead of crowding it.
Not to mention, every inch of the room was adorned with luxurious pieces of furniture and appliances.
Nice.
“Oh, oh fountain!” Blessy squeaks and runs to the gold feature which was displayed in the middle of the room.
It's also the first thing that could catch your eye, before the front desk.
Very nice indeed.
This place really screams money and power, and with everything I saw earlier, the owner is not afraid to show it. Hence, I couldn't help but wonder who the owner is since, in this part of the region, no werewolf I know was rich enough to acquire such an amazing establishment.
Let alone, build one without getting any help from my Kingdom's resources or finances.
Must be a different race then…
Though, which one?
Humans?
Or the mixed-race of Vampires and Witches?
As we reached the front desk, a group of lobby ambassadress, dressed in a white off-shoulder top and blue flowy skirts with slits on the side, greeted us.
They were all tall, slim, and pretty ladies. It got me speculating then if that's part of the job's requirements...
Soon after that, the ladies offered to get us some beverages while we wait for our turn to check-in.
The boys, flirtatiously if I may add, asked for some soda — and the girls' numbers.
While I, with a shook of my head at the boys' coquet, asked for some water.
‘Unmated wolves.’ I heard Bear barked, making me chuckle.
“Can I have hot choco with marshmallows please! Please!” I turned my attention down at my grinning sister while she asked one of the ladies for her favorite drink.
Precious.
When the lady nodded, Blessy's grin widened and her eyes sparkle with so much happiness.
Very precious...
Thankfully, after the RAMPAGE, she came.
Considering that this was a vacation, I thought of bringing some close company with me to help me unwind.
However, I could only bring FOUR people as my plus — as per reading the promo codes.
Accordingly, I started asking people… Of course, I asked the family first.
Due to the uproar, which I made three nights ago, I couldn't convince anybody to come, resulting in me inquiring another group of people for their time.
Talk about rejection…
Luckily, when I offered my men in position the said holiday, they quickly agreed to it.
So that's four of us…
Having no other person in mind anymore, I gave up the idea of finding the fifth man to join me and solely focus on packing.
By the time we were leaving, Blessy surprised me by asking me to bring her — more like ORDERED me to bring her.
Alpha kids and their alpha tones…
At first, I was hesitant because I honestly thought she was upset or scared of me. But after telling me that she was NOT and that her reaction that night was just a shock, I allowed her to come with me.
I know I should have brought Nicole with us, to keep an eye on my mischievous sister.
Though the number of pax had reached its limit and Blessy's already at the age where she knows how to be independent.
So yeah, we proceeded with her only...
Funny that that happened only this morning and here we are, all sitting on the lobby's sofa, waiting for our turn to check-in.
I could tell that the service in this place was fast. However, I also noticed that the number of tourists tops the hotel's occupancy rate because staffs and other managers are everywhere — all trying to accommodate as many guests as they can.
So, it was safe to say that the line to the check-in counter was a very long one.
Currently, the boys and I were just discussing the water activities that we will be doing while we were here when I heard Blessy groaned beside me.
“This place needs a bottle of perfume... It stinks,” she commented, irritated.
I instantly glared at her rude remark, noticing a few of the hotel's personnel heard her. I was about to chastise her when, for the first time after entering the place, I smelled it.
The room, even with the air fresheners and scented candles, reeks of different odors from both mythical creatures and humans...
My nose scrunched up in disgust.
It's not my first time sniffing any of these aromas. Still, breathing it all in one go gave me a sudden migraine.
Damn it!
I tried to shrug it off and continued scolding the defiant she-wolf beside me. When I was done, the unexpected ached from before became more unbearable, making me scowl now.
Blessy noticed.
“Told you so,” she smirked.
I only ignore her and tried to get back to the conversation I had with the lads.
It didn't take long since my head began pounding viciously and that's when I decided, I needed air.
A.S.A.P.
