Mate bond II
Three days later,
She has accepted the fact that she would have to stay in his house for a few days until Alex finds out how to break the bond. She felt like just leaving right away, but she knew she had to break the bond first.
She had not been to work ever since she lost her baby, because Alex had asked her to take a rest for some time; she was always at home doing nothing all day.
Alex even hired a special butler for her, but the man has to taste all the food he cooks for her before she eats it. He was taking more care of her than the last time. Making sure everything was checked and safe before she used it.
Her day’s activities had become like that, just eating and sleeping. Alex did not even give her a second to feel sad.
Until she finally decided to kill her boredom, she called Christina to hang out with her and clear her head.
Christina, who was also happy she had called, suggested they meet and talk in a nearby bar in the evening after her work.
“A bar? I don’t know if I want to meet up at a bar.” She said, knowing that Alex wouldn’t allow her.
“Come on, Ellie. It will be fun. I just needed a drink and someone to talk to. It’s good; you called.” Christina said, persuading her until she finally accepted.
“OK. Call me when you finish work.” Ellie said before hanging up.
She slept for some time and woke up in the evening. She was happy that Alex was not back from work yet. She knew that she just had to persuade Shawn to take her to the bar without Alex knowing about it.
“I’m sorry, ma’am. I need to get permission from Mr. Warren before I take you out.” Shawn said.
“I’m just going to see my friend for a few minutes,” Ellie said, pleading with him. Shawn, who also did not want to disobey her, just sighed.
Shawn only sighed. “I’ll need to take a leave after this,” he thought. He did not want to disobey her. He knew he’d just have to stay with her and call Mr. Warren when he got there to avoid getting into more trouble.
The car stopped in front of a bar. Ellie got out of the car and walked into the bar; she could feel people’s gazes on her as she came out of the car, probably because it was a nice and expensive car.
Shawn was surprised to see that she had come to a bar to meet her friend. “I really can’t understand humans.” He just wanted anything that would keep him away from trouble. He followed her inside the bar to keep her safe.
The bar was not crowded that day because it was still evening and it was a weekday, when people would go to work. She walked in and quickly saw her friend sitting beside the counter because of how empty the place was.
Ellie! Christina called out as soon as she saw her. She pulled her into her arms and hugged her. “I’ve missed you so much.”
“Me too. I’m sorry for making you worried.”
“You should also order a drink,” Christina said. She was the one who suggested they come to a bar because she wanted to clear her head. She had already ordered her beer and was just sipping it before Ellie came in.
“I don’t think I want to drink anything.” Ellie said, remembering that it was alcohol that got her into the mess she was in. And she did not want to take any alcohol because of Shawn, whose eyes were on them the whole time.
What do you mean by saying you don’t want anything? Who goes to a bar without drinking anything? She asked, looking at her in surprise.
After so much thought, she finally ordered a beer. She was about to put the bottle in her mouth when she heard, “No alcohol, ma’am.”
“It’s just a bottle, Shawn.” She said, showing him the small bottle. She also did not want to drink alcohol, but she couldn’t help.
Shawn did not say anything; he just left her alone.
“It looks like Mr. Warren loves you so much; he even got you a bodyguard.” Christina said with a smile, patting her red cheeks lightly.
Love? Seriously! Ellie scoffed.
They both laughed and kept drinking.
“Before I forget, That friend of yours. I’ve forgotten his name. He asked of you.”
“Someone asked of me?” Ellie asked, wondering who it might be, but she remembered that there was only one person who could ask of her. “What did he say?”
“He said he has been trying to call you, but you’ve not been picking up.” Christina said she noticed how her mood suddenly changed, and she wanted to ask her, but she decided not to poke her nose.
“Sam is looking for me? How can I possibly deal with all these? I need to find a way to break that bond soon.” She thought before gulping down her glass of alcohol. They kept drinking until Ellie got drunk. Each of them talked about their problems.
“How can I get pregnant for a werewolf and still lose the baby? Now I’m trapped with him.” She cried, still gulping her alcohol. She was still sad about losing the baby, but she did not want to show the sad part of her to Alex, so she decided to just drink the sorrow away.
“Pregnant for a werewolf?” Christina asked with a smile. She heard her but did not think too much about it; she was just tipsy. “Getting pregnant for a werewolf is better than a stalking ex-boyfriend.” Christina said it with a weak smile.
Ellie took the second bottle of alcohol and poured it into her cup. She was about to drink it when a hand suddenly grabbed her, stopping her from drinking it. This action made the drink poured on her thighs.
She looked up only to see the man she was not expecting at all. “You… you’re here.” She smiled in her drunken state.
She pushed him away and tried to drink from the bottle on the table, but Alex held her hand and pulled her up.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Shawn had called him a while ago, when he noticed that Ellie was about to start drinking. He knew that he would get in trouble for taking her to the bar, and getting drunk was another problem.
He picked her up and carried her on her shoulder. He looked at the girl, who was still sitting on the chair, her head resting on the counter.
“Take care of her. Someone will come for her.” He said to Shawn before leaving the bar with Ellie on his shoulders.
