Wade's PoV Continued:

I didn't bother to pry as we entered a massive doorway leading to a room filled with old books and new ones. I looked around and found a girl who looked similar to Kierian but shorter and had a lot more curves. She sat in a really big leather chair covered in blankets. Her black-brown hair flowed over her shoulders like waterfalls and I wondered if she was taken. Logan spoke to her quietly, "Lilly, have you seen Violet?"

"I saw her running by the window and some things flew off the shelf, but that's all I know. You should probably go see my sister." She shot a glance at Bobby then at me. Bobby just shrugged. She stared at me again with burnt orange eyes that watched my every move with something I couldn't identify and I felt a magnetic attraction to the girl in the armchair.

Logan nodded to her previous statement and asked, "Where's Rose?"

My mind spun. How many of the girls' names were after a flower?

"She's in the courtyard garden…" Lilly seemed to forget we were there and continued reading with enthusiasm.

Warren sighed. "I'm going back to my room." He looked at Bobby with a death glare. "If you hurt her at all, Iceprincess, I swear. I'll kill ya."

Bobby never flinched and watched Warren walk away. "I sense there's some tension between you two."

"Shut up, Wilson." He shoved by and began walking to the courtyard. He got out of sight quickly while Logan and I took our time.

"What's the deal with this girl, Howlett?" I asked somewhat annoyed.

"She's the most confusing, interesting… appealing woman any of us have ever seen." He looked absolutely sincere.

"What tricks can she do?" My curiosity got the best of me and was met with an angry growl.

"Watch your mouth, Wilson. If any of the guys here hear you talk like that, you won't live to see another day."

I just shrugged and looked back down the courtyard where Bobby was holding Kierian by the front of her shirt and seemed to be yelling at her. I looked at Logan a split second before we both jogged to interrupt the confrontation.

"I don't know where in the hell she is, Bobby!" I saw something shiny slip from the hem of her sleeve and she toyed with the tip of the sharp object.

I grabbed her arm and she glowered at me before sending my hand flying back and something scratched the side of my face before getting hot then numb. "You'll want to clean that up before the poison actually settles in. You'll be paralyzed for a day or two."

Bobby sighed and ripped part of his jacket before freezing it and holding up to me. "It'll take longer for the poison to spread if you keep it cold. It's happened to me a million times."

Kierian turned with a smirk and said, "Every Rose has its thorns."

Apparently, the paralytic substance was affecting my mind already because her words seemed slurred as did Bobby's reply. "Music!"

"Way to figure it out dipshit," Rose scoffed.

There were so many puzzles and questions. What was even going on here?

Logan PoV:

I tried not to laugh when I saw the three cuts on the side of Wade's face that were now oozing clear liquid from Rose's thorns. The little Iceprincess didn't even bother to let anyone think before darting off in the general direction of Violet's room; then it hit me. How did he know where her room was? Those things were usually kept private, but I figured that all of the trouble with her forced him to take some drastic measures to protect her.

The Iceman was quick on his feet as he darted out of sight and around the bend. I didn't even know where her room was for fear that I might get a little roughed up and want to know where a good time was. I went into a flat out run by the time I caught up with the younger man when I found him scaling the wall and slipping into a girl's room. Kitty stuck her head out the window and motioned for us to come up. Wade, who was now barely functional, went up first. I followed.

When I slipped in the window, I witnessed Kitty and Bobby talking like normal human beings rather than the enemies they decided they once were because of the "Rogue Incident." Kitty took one look at Wilson before she sighed and walked over to a fridge filled with some sort of concoction. She took out the bottle, put some thick white liquid on the tips of her fingers, and gently dabbed Wilson's face with it.

"It's going to knock you out cold, but it's better than being in a coma for a few days." Just after she finished her sentence, Wade dropped to the floor, out like a light. I didn't feel angry towards him for trying to redeem himself to his father after all this time, but I didn't know exactly what to do with my old partner.

Kitty pulled on my arm and I followed her quietly. It was odd to be in the girls' side of the mansion, but it didn't bother me too much. It seemed completely normal for Bobby though. He walked down the corridors next to Kitty and didn't ask any questions. Jealousy rumbled deep in my core as I thought of Bobby, the player- the Iceprincess, getting the opportunity to mend Violet and her heart- getting the opportunity to teach her everything the way a lover should. A snarl built up right under my vocal chords, threatening to escape as I thought of the one thing that made me livid- him getting her innocence.

"Put them away, Logan," he said quietly. I looked down and saw the Adamantium blades protruding from the spaces between my knuckles. We had stopped at a relatively large set of double doors that seemed to pulse like an entity. This was where Bobby became the old Bobby- the Iceprincess.
