The Vampire Prince's Wife Book 2

Chapter 13

Cole's POV

It was getting late. Isabel must be in bed already. I ran up to the room and opened the door quietly. I saw Isabel standing at the window. She was in a pair of silk pajama pants and a light blue tank top. Her hair fell loose and she didn't move from her spot. I walked over to her and put my arms around her waist.

"Are you okay?", I asked.

"I'm fine. Just thinking about what life will be like once we're married and we are the rulers of Aden", she replied.

"Dont worry love. Everything will still be the same. We'll just have more responsibilities and have to attend more meetings today", I said.

"I guess", she said.

"I bumped into Carly today. She was saying something about how you seemed different but we both knew it was just her mind playing tricks on her. She has a lot to do before the coronation", I said.

"Different?", she asked.

"Yeah. Like your aura was off. Evil like some way. Just an old witches thing", I replied.

She stayed quiet. Quiet like everything I was saying was true.

"Are you okay?", I asked.

"I'm just scared", she whispered to herself.

"Of what?", I asked.

"It's nothing. Just a childish fear", she replied.

"Tell me. It can't be childish", I said.

"I always used to be scared of the dark", she said.

"You don't seem so scared now", I said.

"That a because I grew out of it", she said.

"Well I think almost everyone used to be scared of the dark at one point in their life", I said.

I moved the hair that was covering her neck and kissed her neck.

"Cole. Not tonight. I'm tired", she said.

"Please. Just tonight", I said.

"I can't. Not tonight. I need to get some rest", she said.

She walked over to the bed and got in bed. I got in and saw Isabel fall asleep. And I fell asleep after her.
