Louisseena

Chapter 23

Bruce POV:

I hope my mate enjoyed her day. I was super ecstatic as she mentioned her wolf’s name to me. I secretly snap a picture of her holding Raven and now it is my phone's home wallpaper, I wanted to know more about her wolf but I could never ask about it directly for fear it might open up a can of worms.

I wanted her to be ready to tell me on her own. We’ll just take baby steps. I tried asking her about why she was upset the day before. But all I got were short replies. Well, at least it is not over boys matters !

I looked up on her social media post.

“BB” what the heck does “BB” stands for? I touch my bald head as I think about what it could stand for. One “B” definitely for Bruce. What would the other one be? “Baby?” I thought as I smug silly at myself.

No sweats my LL. There’s still more to come that I’ve planned for you.

The next morning Louisseena woke up and checked her post. It had received many thumbs up and heart shapes. She opened her messenger app and it was pretty quiet except for 1 notification on her group chat.

“Jerry has left” time stamped 11:26pm - was written on the group chat. She opened up her game and checked her game friend list. Jerry had also deleted her off his friend’s list.

She somewhat knew this was coming but didn’t know till what extent. She closed back her phone and threw it on the bed. She's already dreading Monday.

Lou POV:

Work without Elliot was boring. Then came lunch time, finally a break that I could use some time with myself getting lost in my thoughts. I’ve been thinking about it the whole weekend. Nobody else said a word after Jerry left the group chat. Maybe they’ve asked him privately and they know something.

But right now I feel ostracised. I guess I will not be joining them for lunch today. Jerry might be there. I’m fine being on my own as I’ve always been in the past. I shouldn’t be there in case Jerry wants to be there. I shouldn’t be the reason Jerry has to leave his own friends when or if he wants to avoid me. I guess I will not be joining them for lunch ever again. I lay down on my desk and decided to nap for the whole lunch hour. I wasn’t hungry at all.

Bruce POV:

My mate seems moody these days. She barely even talks much on normal days and now she hardly even talks. I mindlinked her bodyguard and asked if anything had changed. She only said that Lou has stopped going out for lunch.

Hmm. Was work really that busy till she doesn’t eat lunch? I went down a few floors to their department office and saw the floor mostly empty as it’s lunch time. I saw my little mate sleeping on her desk. I wanted to go over and pat her head but I can’t. We’re at work. I wonder what’s wrong with her. Did she not sleep well ? Why wasn’t she joining her lunch friends anymore?

I thought that she had a great time at the cafe that should have lifted her mood. Gosh my mate is so hard to understand. I wish we can hurry up and mark my mate already so that I can feel the bond with her and let me know what she is thinking. I could feel my beast stirring inside.

I need a plan B for this, I thought. Things are not getting along fast enough. I went back to my office and made a phone call.
