Stakes Claim On Her

Chapter 9:  Unexpected Journey ‘'Home'’ 

Gabrielle 

As soon as I pop the last of my delicious breakfast into my mouth Margret appears next to the table.

She gives my a knowing smile before clearing mine and Issacs plates.

My cheeks flush knowing that she probably heard everything that just happened.

"How was breakfast?"

Isaac asks after Margret leaves.

I'm sure he already knows the answer to that.

"It was delicious, I've never tried those things before-"

"From now on if you want something all you have to do is ask for it.Okay?"

He places his hand over mine as he says this.

His words mean alot to me.

I've never had anything like this, anyone like this.

I have been poor my whole life, scavenging for food and supplies to survive.

The last three years working in the pack building have been a blessing, but it was still harsh and lonely.

It'll be nice to not feel alone all the time.

"Okay."

I squeeze his hand and smile at him, showing I understand.

Issac's phone goes off suddenly, startling me for a moment.

He annoyingly pulls it out and checks the caller ID.

Sighing, he stands up.

"I have to take this, stay here.I'll just be outside."

He kisses me on the forehead before walking outside.

I sit by myself for a moment, until I hear footsteps walk up behind me.

When I turn around Margret is standing behind me, holding two mugs filled with tea.

"How has Issac been?"

She asks, handing me a mug before taking Issac's seat across from me.

"He seems good.To be honest, I just met him.I don't really know much about him.We haven't been doing much talking."

I am hoping that Margret will be able to tell me a little about Issac.
