The True Ruler, Rayven

Straight hair?!

Oh yeah I’m blindfolded I am grateful that it’s on my face, I wouldn’t know how to explain to mom that I just teleported my consciousness to the underworld where I met the most gorgeous man ever. Who I might never see again my heart aches at the thought of never seeing him again. It might be for the best anyway I would ant my mate to only have love and lust for me in his heart not other women. I feel something in the palm of my hand under the beautician’s cloak she wrapped around me to protect my clothes.

Fumbling with the object in my hand I internally gasp, it is phone Adrian materialized for me so I could contact him. I wonder why did he not just get my actual phone number instead of making a phone for me, I guess there is no life to after life reception. I giggle internally at my corny cell service joke. I stuff the phone in my front pocket being sure to not click any buttons and conceal its presence as much as possible. Until I know more about Adrian I should keep him a secret, it looks like she’s just now coming back to her normal self. Hearing her laugh and seeing her smile today, I haven’t seen this side of my mom in a very long time.

“Okay queenie are you ready to see your new hair?” Enrique says full of enthusiasm.

“Oh honey you are always gorgeous but this new look on you is simply stunning make sure you keep your eyes closed until we say so.” My mom says like she is about to cry. Yeah the champagne got her, after we eat she’s going to be nice and sleepy.

I keep my eyes closed as I feel the blindfold being removed from my face. I hear a countdown 3….2…..1….

“Open your eyes!” They both say in unison

I open my eyes and my mouth drops open to the floor I’m amazed that my hair is even able to get this straight. It’s so shiny and voluminous you would think that I actually have weave in my head. My hair was already long about mid back length but straight it reaches to the bottom of my butt. And it does look like he already cut the layers in it the way my hair is framing my face. My white patch is still there, I’m glad to see no dye was added to my head.

“I’m not going to lie to you, your curls put up a good fight but I’m the best around. This silk press should last you 2 to 3 weeks but knowing how much you sweat and run around it’s probably going to last you exactly 2 weeks if you wrap your hair and cool it with the steam.” Enrique tells me, he gives me a couple pointers and maintenance trucks that should at least keep it straight for the next couple of days for sure.

I can’t lie to you, I’ll wrap it probably for the first 3 days but after that my hair is on its own, I have things to do especially after being with Adrian knowing he was stronger than me by simply gripping my arm, the thought that there’s probably more powerful people out there just as strong as him if not stronger worries me. I push all that to the side for now I promised mom I wouldn’t work today and I’m going to keep it.

Looking at myself in the mirror I have to admit. Enrique did his thing, my hair is so beautiful right now. I look like a Barbie doll version of my natural self, I just know with this hair and dress combo my mate would tear off half the earth for another male even walking my direction. My mom and I thank Enrique for all of his hard work and leave the hair salon. Every place we have been to so far has been paid off generously for closing the stores down for just us as well as our services and tips. We wanted to make sure nobody in the plaza went without income while we came here to do our thing. My mom made sure they made double their average daily amount and still charged us for the things we would use and get. My father instilled in me a long time ago that a good leader looked out for their people, when one of us is hurting we all are hurting. That’s what makes Crimson Hyde kingdom number one in the world it’s a community where all different types of supernatural creatures, even some humans look out for each-other, we are all a part of the same family, Life.

We head to the last stop of the day before we get food, I’m starving and I know the detail is too I heard one of their stomachs growling behind me. I looked back at him and pointed to my stomach and made a crying face to let him know I was dying too. I was about to act out sneaking away from here to get some food at the nearby diner, but I was caught by my mom who was about to smack me in the back of the head but remembered I just got my hair done.

She assures me that we can grab something to eat after we see and I try on the dress. Me and the detail start cheering and jumping up and down with glee. My mother laughs at us,

“I have a bunch of highly trained killer children guarding me.” She mocks our childish ways, we might be silly and goofy at times, but she knows what we all are capable of, so she’s not worried in the slightest.

We finally reach the dress shop and Lyana Boudreaux is already standing at the entrance squealing and jumping around like a cheerleader and I quickly match her vibe. We embrace each-other and she pulls back from me to take a good look at the straight hair. It’s been a while since we last seen eachother, we went to the same high school together we actually are childhood friends. She just ended up moving to the human world with her father because he got a new job. Dex and I were devastated when she left, I think Dex more so than me he always had the biggest crush on her.

Me and Lyana are as thick as molasses. We were together so much people thought we were actual sisters. Lyana is 5”7 with a full coke bottle figure, she has full lips and cute doe like wide eyes. Her hair is cut short into a cute long pixie style she doesn’t have any tattoos but she does have an eyebrow and nose piercing. She is slightly older than me so she is already 18 has been for a couple months now but she has not found her mate quite yet

Although her moving away from the supernatural world hurt me I can understand the opportunity that was available for her and her father. He ended up starting his own oil company in the human world and is actually one of the major oil and energy providers that they use. It gave Lyana to go to one of the top design schools in the world. She’s actually an upcoming stylist who has already styled many celebrities and most of all making her dream come true. She’s so strong for being away from home for so long I know being around humans unable to shift for an extended period of time is hard, Lilly and Lyana must have had it hard. Lilly is Lyanas wolf, she’s not a lycan like Dex and I but we love her all the same there is no difference in species we all bleed the same blood.
