New House

CHAPTER 5

/ ABBY /

The room that my friend, Shade, lent me was a small one, but this would be enough for one person. Besides, the view was spectacular.

I opened the closet in the bedroom and found some extra clothes so I took some out and looked for my wolfie friend. I found him standing by the window, watering an almost dead cactus on a nearby shelf.

“Hey wolfie, wear these on. We’re going to go shopping,” I told him and threw him the clothes. I called him wolfie because I kind of forget what his name was.

He caught the clothes with one hand and was about to strip off his clothes in that area but I stopped him.

“There’s a bathroom right at the corner. Please get change over there,” I said.

“I can do it right here,” he answered, not really getting my point.

“Oh come on! You can’t just get naked in front of me anytime you want!”

“Why not? You’ve seen all of me before,” he answered as if it was no big deal.

I felt my cheeks blushing.

“What do you mean?” I asked, even though deep inside I knew exactly what he meant.

“We mated, it means you had seen me without clothes and touched me so many times,” He explained, feeling so amused at himself.

Was he teasing me?

“Well, I have no memory of it and I won’t believe it unless I remember it. So please, proceed to the bathroom and have some bath too.”

“As you wish, my queen,” he said and started walking towards the bathroom.

I was glad he didn’t argue anymore. This man was stirring up my emotions ever since I met him. But I should not be affected by it.

I saw him entering the shower but he didn’t even bother to close the door.

“Hey close the door!” I called out to him. But he didn’t answer anymore. “Never mind! Just do whatever you want! I’m gonna wait outside, just please hurry up.”

I heard the sound of a shower turning on before I headed outside to catch some fresh air. I sat on a small bench in a small garden and looked through my bag. I was going to buy him some food today so I checked if I still had some cash in my wallet. Good thing, I still have some allowances left. It would be enough for a while.

A moment later, the door opened and Wolfie came out wearing the clothes I gave him – a pair of jeans and a white shirt. He looked even more stunning with his black hair which was combed a little to the side, his pale skin, and blue eyes. He looked really young, it made me wonder what could have happened to him.

But I guess I would find out later on.

“You ready to go, Wolfie?”

He nodded.

“Let’s go,” I said and we headed down the stairs and into the streets. There was a convenient store nearby so I took him there and bought him some meat because he suggested it. Then I also bought him some snacks and drinks in case he would get hungry in the middle of the night.

I planned to leave him stay at my friend’s apartment alone for a while since I still have classes during the weekdays and I needed to stay at my dorm. But I would visit him anytime, but only if he wouldn’t disappear. There was still a lot of questions I was going to ask him but his answers were always hard to believe. I still think he was out of his mind. And if there was anyone looking for him, I wouldn’t hesitate to report him. I also wouldn’t hesitate to send him to the police if he ever hurt me but so far, he didn’t seemed to be dangerous. But still, I needed to keep myself safe.

We went back to the apartment and I stacked the food in the fridge. I also gave him some instructions about the apartment. He would be the only one living in the whole building, so I wanted him to keep it clean all the time. And he needed to be careful too because I didn’t want my friend to find out I was keeping a man or a stranger in her apartment.

“Did you understand everything I said?” I asked him.

He took a minute to answer me, thinking.

“So you’re not staying here with me?” he asked. The expression on his face looked serious.

“No. I have classes. I need to be in my dorm.”

“You’re leaving me her? Alone?” he asked, the sudden rise of his voice made me scared for a second.

“Yes, is that a problem?”

“It’s a big problem. I’ve been alone for a long time since I lost you. I can’t lose you again.

I gave him a sigh. He looked like a kid sometimes.

“I’ll be fine. Don’t worry, I’ll visit.”

“When?”

“I don’t know, probably tomorrow. What are you so worried about? I’ll be safe, okay?”

He didn’t have a choice but to agree and just watched me from the rooftop as I crossed the streets and headed to my dorm. 

****

At night, my roommate and I were going to attend a friend’s party so I changed into one of my sexiest clothes. I didn’t have a boyfriend. Well, I never had one. But I wanted to be friendly. I wanted to have fun and live normal like my friends.

I was fixing my make up in the mirror when Genebeth, my roommate, called me from the door.

“Uhh Abby, someone’s here to see you,” she called out.

“Okay, coming!” I walked towards her and stood next to her.

But when she opened the door widely, I almost jumped in surprise because there… standing outside the door was Wolfie, grinning excitedly looking so proud at himself after finding out where I actually lived.
