Chapter 43

Isabelle's POV

After breakfast I had retired to my room, trying to contact my wolf whom had not responded to me. I paced back and forth, feeling restless until I finally settled on the bed, drifting off.

By the time I had woke up, it was evening, and the sun had began to hide beneath the clouds.

I stretched my body, yawning as I covered my mouth with my hand.

Getting out of the bed, I walked downstairs where Klinn had just walked in, his gaze landing onto me.

"You're back." I said, walking towards him. I had wrapped my arms around his waist, hugging him. I had not known why I did it, but I felt the sudden urge to hug him.

Pulling away, my gaze traveled to look at him where he remained expressionless.

"Ain't you a loving girlfriend, Greeting me with hugs and kisses when I'm back from work" He finally said, a smirk coming to rest on his lips, and my eyes went wide. When had I kissed him.

"When did I kiss you?!" I demanded, feeling my cheeks grow hot and he chuckled. What exactly happened to him, I thought in my head. Since when did he start to laugh or chuckle?

Despite the astonishment, I felt my heart turn warm from watching his smile, and I noticed the dimple that had appeared on his cheek. Why hadn't I noticed that before?

Shaking my head to get rid of the thoughts, Klinn had planted a kiss on my forehead, catching me off guard.

"I missed you." He said, and I felt my heart stop. Since when was he so cheesy?

Perhaps he had drank a little of cheese before coming home?

"Did you go out for dinner?" I asked, and he stared at me before shaking his head.

"Why?" He asked

"Nothing." I responded, walking beside him as he climbed the stairs.

"I was thinking if I could inform my friend where I am?" I said, and Klinn had not halted. Instead, he continued to walk, coming to a stop in front of his room.

"You mean the one you had been staying with?" He asked, and I nodded.

"Mhmm." I hummed

"How exactly do you plan on contacting him?." Klinn asked, and I fiddled with the hem of my dress.

"I was thinking if I could visit him." I said, patiently waiting for Klinn's answer.

"Sure." He finally said, and I beamed.

"I'll just go and change." He said, and nodded my head vigorously.

After he had changed, we both headed out to the place in which he had picked me up yesterday.

The whole ride was quiet as he focused on driving.

Once we reached, I stepped out of the car, heading for Alex's apartment in which I rang the doorbell.

The door was soon pulled open and I came face to face with Alex who stared at me in shock.

"You wicked being!" He yelled, and I felt my ears begin to go numb.

"Where did you run off to?!" He asked, pulling me by the arm, his eyes scanning my face to check if I was real.

"Ahh...slow down." I said, and he glared at me before his eyes moved to rest on Klinn who stood beside me.

"This is Klinn, my boyfriend." I said, and I watched his jaw drop. He was probably wondering how I got a boyfriend so fast, but it was something he will never be able to understand.

"Nice to meet you." Klinn said, and Alex nodded.

"Now that you have seen each other, we should go." Klinn said, and I turned to stare wide eyed at him.

"Can I at least have your number?" Alex said, and I turned to stare sheepishly at him.

"I do not have a phone." I said, and his jaw dropped.

"One human you are, Belle." Alex said, and I felt the cold air that had began to cone from Klinn.

"Why don't you write your number down and hand it over to me?" I offered, and Alex nodded, retiring into the apartment.

He handed me the piece of paper when he got back, and I bid him goodbye, entering the car where Klinn had drove off.

"Where are we going?" I asked, and Klinn had not said a word. Was he mad? I thought as I stole glances at him. Why was he mad though?

We rode into the night, neither of us saying a word, and I stared out of the window, wondering what must have upset him.

"Hey." I mind linked my wolf, knowing that it would not reply, but it had surprised me.

"What?" it asked, it's voice sounding irritated and I rolled my eyes.

"You have not been speaking lately."

"I have nothing to say." it responded.

"Mate jealous." it said, and my eyes went wide as I turned to look at Klinn who's brows had knotted unconsciously.

All turned quite again.

We soon came to a stop inside the mansion, Klinn walking ahead of me into the house where he vanished. Heaving a deep sigh, I headed to my room where I freshened up, changing into a pair of pajamas.

Soon, I went down for dinner where I had not found Klinn. I ate in silence as I stared at the door, hoping that he would come, but he never did.

I headed to my room after I had finished eating, where I had sunk onto my bed, my eyes staring up at the ceiling, my imaginations went wild.

I soon drifted off to sleep.

...

Another morning came, bringing it with new hopes and aspirations. My eyes fluttered open, and my thoughts traveled to last night when I had not seen Klinn since she got back. Getting off the bed, I proceeded to make it. Once I was done, I was about to head for the bathroom when I caught something from the corner of my eye. Turning, I stared intently at the screen that shimmered from the sunlight that hit it. There was a note that had been stuck to it.

Picking it uo, my eyes moved as I read through it.

"I figured I had been a bad boyfriend by not considering your needs. I decided to get you a phone as my first boyfriend deed."

I smiled, feeling my heart flutter at his cuteness.

I had never thought Klinn would have this side to him. A different side where he had the ability to be cheesy. What had changed?

Turning the phone on, I found his number had been stored in it.

Placing it back on the side table, I proceeded to head to the bathroom where I freshened up.
