Isabella’s P.O.V.The weekend went pretty much in a haze, all thanks to that mind-blowing amazing date night I had with Mason. He just swiped me up my feet with his hard work and determination to make me feel precious; now I feel like I don’t stand up to his standards to make him feel equally special, so yesterday night I made a promise to myself that I’ll shower him with so much affection that he won’t be able to get me out of his system just like he made me incapable of it.
I don’t know why but I’m very much excited to go to college today, maybe the fact that I’ll be having breakfast with Mason has something to do with it. I’m bubbling with excitement from within as I think about my plan, I just hope it goes as I planned it to or else it might just back fire.
This is tiring.
I finish my chores early, getting my brothers ready, I inform my sisters to eat their breakfast and not to forget to feed the boys as I leave for college. Everyone is happy for me; it is visible in their eyes. As I’m driving to college, the thoughts of Saturday night pop back up in my mind as I think about it, a small smile dancing on my lips as I think.
It all started when I came back home on Saturday night, my siblings with Rose were settled on the couch with ice-cream and popcorn watching Frozen 2. As soon as I entered the house, I was bombarded with questions and Rose didn’t even spare a second to breathe before throwing a few tens of questions. Once they all realized that I’m not going to answer until they calm down, everyone went silent; only then I settled on the couch and started answering their questions. Somewhere around 3-4 question, Rose spotted the hickeys on my neck and started wiggling her eyebrows and that’s when I remembered I didn’t message Mason about my arrival; before I could hit send on my phone, someone started knocking on my door frantically. My phone almost dropped from my hand when that happened.
Mia ran to open the door and the person in front of us was panting like crazy as if he came running all the way from a few kilometers; Ryan was panting hard standing at my doorstep. He had his phone in his hand, when he saw me he took it near his ear and said, “She is here dude. She might have forgotten to do it man.” That’s when I realized that it must be Mason. He moved the phone towards me and said, “Here. Talk to your man before he tears the forest apart to get to you.” I chuckled at his words and spoke, “Sorry baby. I got caught up with all the questions these girls were throwing at me.”
He huffed in relief as I heard him say, “I knew it that you will forget to inform me, even when I reminded you. What am I going to do with you woman?”
I couldn’t hold the giggle that left my mouth; the people surrounding me were looking at me curiously, they seriously are too nosy for my liking right now. I moved my attention back towards my mate when I heard Mason call out, “Baby?”
I replied with, “You could have just called me, why did you call Ryan?” I could hear him snicker and then cover it up with a cough as he said, “Um. I thought he might be home.”
“Really?” I asked, not convinced with his answer.
“Yeah” was his reply, I couldn’t hold it anymore and finally asked, “Why don’t you sound so convincing Mister?”
He cleared his throat, followed by silence; he knew he couldn’t lie anymore so he was silent for a long time until I asked, “So? Will you care to explain why you did that?” in a stern voice. I hear him gulp before he murmured, “I just wanted to have some fun.”
“MASON!” I grumbled I wasn’t actually angry at him for doing that but he didn’t need to know that; so I played along. He mumbled a small, “Sorry” I smiled at his words as I imagined him pouting while saying that. I know how hard it is for him to say sorry, being the most feared Alpha but he still did that and that made me blush as I replied, trying to get him out of his misery, “It’s okay baby. I’m not angry at you.” He took a breather and I continued, “Now that you know I’m home, I want you to go home and drop me a text, if you are lucky enough I might just reply.”
“Hey that’s rude” he whined and I took it as an opportunity to reply with “I know but I’m still going to do that. So good night, love you and see you tomorrow. Bye.”
He didn’t reply for a few seconds and I thought he disconnected the call when he spoke, “What did you just say?”
“What?” I asked, confused what did I say that offended him so much? Before I could ponder on the thought anymore he replied, “You said love you.”
My breath caught in my throat, my eyes expanding about to pop out of my eye sockets as I thought about it, without even catching it I said, “No I didn’t say that.”
“Yes you did” I heard Rose and Iris shout, I turned to them and asked, “What are you guys talking about? You don’t even know what he asked me.”
Rose shrugged and replied with a smug look, “He is right Bella, you did say love you to him. We all are proof.”
“Shut up Rose. I didn’t say anything like that” I shouted, offended by her accusation; she smirked at my words and said, “Sure girlfriend. Whatever helps you sleep at night?” If I could, I would have punched Rose cross in her face at that moment, but somehow I controlled myself and soon forgot when Mason voice came from the other side of the phone as he said, “Don’t worry baby. Love you too.” I didn’t say anything, just disconnected the call and gave it back to Ryan, running upstairs to my room at Godspeed.
I had too, the blush rising on my face was too much to handle and I knew I won’t be able to hide it from them, especially Rose. I just walked into my en-suite bathroom, stripped and had a nice warm bath; when I came out I saw Rose sprawled on my bed with my phone in her hand as she clicked a picture on me in a towel.
I held my towel tight enough to make sure it doesn’t fall and asked, “What are you doing, you crazy woman?” She smirked as she typed something on my phone and then replied with, “Oh nothing sweetie, just sending your sexy picture to your beloved mate.” As soon as her words registered in my brain, I jumped on her, to grab my phone. She just gave it to me without much of a fight, I checked my messages and realized that she wasn’t kidding; I couldn’t just delete the picture now because Mason already saw it and deleting it now would be useless as he might have already saved it in his phone.
I have to find new friends; my old ones are turning into traitors.
Finding it useless now, I threw my phone on my bed and walked into my closet to grab some PJs, getting dressed I walked back into the room only to find Rose wiggling her eyebrows again.
This woman has some serious issues.
“What?” I asked her, she was smiling goofily at me and I knew why she was here, she wanted to know what happened between me and Mason, about how our date was; basically she needed gossip. I rolled my eyes at her as I settled beside her and she said, “Don’t roll your eyes at me woman.”
I ignored her as I remembered that I didn’t tuck the boys in, so I moved away walking towards the door when she said, “The boys are already asleep, I tucked them in, so now get your ass here and tell me how was it?”
I knew there was no chance of getting out of this as I got back in bed and started telling her everything, though she demanded to know all the details but I left the important ones out. She wasn’t quite happy about it and wanted to still get a few answers thus she asked, “At least tell me that you guys kissed? If you didn’t that I swear woman I’m going to kick your ass.”
I rolled my eyes at her threat and replied, “Yes we did. Quite a few times” she was shocked with her mouth hanging open for a few seconds, I chuckled at her as she composed herself. Next thing she said was, “I knew that boy will kiss you” I looked at her smug as I said, “Actually it’s the opposite, I’m the one who kissed him and he is not a boy, he is a man.”
“Damn woman. When did you get so feisty in this department?” she asked when she finally digested the news and I smirked at her. The night went on like that, the last thing I remember that night is Mason’s message saying, “Good night baby. Love you.”
I didn’t realize that I was already at the campus, until I got a call from Mason; picking his call up I asked, “Hey where are you?”
“Right behind you” I heard him say, moving out of my car and walking towards the back I saw him standing there, leaning against his car at the opposite side of the parking lot. Walking to him, I hugged him and latched my lips to his as I asked, “Good morning baby, missed me?”
He was shocked at my gesture and after staring at me for a few seconds he grabbed me face, latching our lips again kissing me with all his might, separating from each other for catching our breath, he said, “You have no idea.” Lacing our fingers together, he started pulling me towards the diner, the same one which we went a few days back. I frowned looking at it and he realized it as he started rubbing circles on my hand, calming me down.
Once we were inside, we settled on the table located at the far end of the diner, soon enough the same bitch walked to our table to take our orders. She was smirking when she saw us as she asked, “Back for more I see.” I glared at her sitting beside Mason, this time we both were sitting at the same side and he still had hold of my hand as she smirked at me and then bent a little towards Mason as she whispered, “What can I get you babe?”
I stiffed at her words and so did Mason, soon he smirked at her as he said, “First, I’d like some other waitress; someone who wouldn’t be as bitchy as you would work great and after that I’d like to talk to your manager.”
She looked at him, shocked at her words as she stuttered, “Wh… What?”
“Get to it bitch” I growled, once her attention was on me I continued, “I don’t want you to keep my man waiting.” She was planted in her place staring at me; if looks could kill I’d be six feet under. She was too stubborn for my liking as she smirked and said, “Come on babe. You know you want me. What even do you see in her, she is not even that pretty? Come with me and I’ll show you what a real woman is.”
What the hell did she just say?
I felt Mason’s anger radiating through him as a growl escaped from me, Mason’s attention was now on me as he looked a little happy. I think my man has gone crazy, in such times how can he be happy and what is he happy about?
I pushed Mason aside and walked out, moving over him, rubbing his member without even realizing; I heard him suck a breath. I turn towards him and mumbled, “Seriously Mason?” He smirked at me and shrugged as if it wasn’t a big deal. I moved my attention towards the bitch; she was looking at me with keen interest. I grabbed her by her throat; clasping my fingers tight enough to make her choke on her own spit and lose enough to let her breath.
She instantly wrapped her hands around mine as she gasped for air shout-mumbling, “Wh… What are you doing? Le… Leave me… bi… bitch…” Hitting my hand a few times to loosen my grip but to no avail. I felt Mason wrap his arms around my waist as he tried to pull me away, his strength wasn’t enough either; he moved his mouth to my ear as he whispered, “Leave her baby, she will die.”
“I don’t care” I growled out, making the bitch flinch a little satisfying me in a sick manner; looking her turn into a withering mess, I gritted at her, “You lay your eyes on my man ever again, I swear to God, I will rip them out of their sockets and feed it to my pet dog. DO YOU GET IT BITCH?”
She shook her head to answer; it made me furious to no extent as I shouted, “Speak up bitch. I asked do you get it.”
She whispered a small, “Yes” as I loosened my grip on her neck, she bent down to grasp as much air as she could while coughing up due to dry throat. Our little banter had everyone’s attention towards us including the manager who walked up to us as he asked, “Is everything okay ma’am?”
I looked at him, still pissed at the bitch’s behavior and growled, “No, it’s not. I want you to fire this bitch if you want your continue doing business here.”
“Sorry ma’am. But can I know what did se do?” I glared at him and he visibly flinched taking a step back as I said, “She was flirting with my man; not just flirting, throwing herself at him even when he made it clear that he would like a change in waitress and a talk with you. Still this bitch had the audacity to tell him that to give her a chance, she was literally begging to fuck him right in front of me. What kind of people are you hiring here?”
His face fell at my words as he lowered his head and mumbled, “Sorry Ma’am. I’ll take care of it.” He turned around about to walk away, not before glaring at the girl as he shouted, “You’re fired.”
I stopped him, as the girl glared at me as she stormed away to somewhere and asked, “One more thing. How can you allow someone to wear something like that and come to work? She is literally naked right now, how can you be so ignorant about it?”
He didn’t say anything as he knew he was wrong when he said, “Don’t worry ma’am, I’ll take of it. I promise you won’t have to face a problem like this every again.”
I nodded as he made his way back to his office, before saying, “I’ll send someone to take your order. I hope you forgive us.”
I smiled as I felt Mason nod and we settled back in our seat. It wasn’t even a minute when another girl arrived at our table to take our order. She smiled at me and asked, “What can I get you guys?” I smiled at her and replied, “I’ll have chocolate chip pancakes with dark chocolate sauce and a cup of coffee with extra shot of espresso.”
I turned towards Mason and asked, “What are you going to have?” He smiled at me and turned towards the waitress as he said, “I’ll have pancakes with a side of bacon and I’ll have the same coffee as her.” She smiled at us as she nodded and walked away.
I was looking around when I felt Mason hand on my thigh, inching closer towards my core; my breathing hitched as I turned into a hot mess, gulping down I held his hand and looked at him as I stuttered, “Wh… What are you doing Mason?”
His hand kept moving upwards towards my core as he covered in under his palm as he whispered, “You’re mine as well as this.” Pressurizing a little on my core he moved closer to me as me moved my hand with the help of his other hand as he placed it on his bulge which was very much evident forming a large tent in his pant as he growled, “Just like this is yours.”
Soon the waitress arrived with our food as I thanked her for the same. The breakfast was silent with Mason still having his hold on my core and me blushing every now and then about it. Once we were done, we asked for the ill, the waitress arrived with it as she said, “You guys are cute together. She slides two chocolate chip muffins towards us as she says, “It’s a thank you from the staff. You helped us get rid of the bitch. She has been a pain in everyone’s ass for quite some time and your actions helped us to finally get out of her bitchy hold. Thank you.”
I smiled at her as I said, “Your welcome. She had it coming, someone had to deal with her. It’s no biggie” as we moved out of the diner. When we reached out, I saw the bitchy waitress sitting outside as if she was waiting for someone; as soon as she saw us, she walked towards me, determination etched to her face as she said, “You know people say, Payback’s a bitch. Just a heads up, keep your eyes open at all times, you have no idea what you’re going to get hit with” as she walked away with a sway in her hips.
Mason and I, we both had no idea what she meant by it as we both had confusion clearly written on our face. He just shrugged as he said, “Ignore her baby. Don’t spoil your mood because of her stupid words.”
But something inside me told me that her words weren’t as stupid as he thought they were.
It felt like a storm was coming.
