She's In His City

Moving on

I once heard that pain makes the soul numb. Right now I finally understood the feeling. I felt numb both physically emotionally. I have to admit that Azriel's presence last night helped me to sleep peacefully but now it was morning and he was gone.

I heard a knock on my which snapped me out of my thoughts. Azriel came in with a tray of food for me.

"Good morning doll." He said.

I gave him a smile that didn't reach my eye's.

He sighed then continued talking.

"You know, I went through a lot of trouble to make these nutella pancakes for you and you still don't look pleased."

I looked at him wondering if he actually went through all the stress of making breakfast for me.

"I can feed you if you like." He said.

I rolled my eye's in reply.

"Okay then, but I have a secret to tell you but since you don't want to eat well....."

I rolled my eye's again but my curiosity was getting the best of me so I opened my mouth. He smiled and fed me a little piece of the pancake.

In case you're wondering it wasn't horrible. It was so good I couldn't help but moan. Yep I was fueling his ego.

"I see you're enjoying the food doll face. Anyways what I wanted to tell you was that....well I... Joe is still alive I didn't kill him."

My eye's widened in shock.

"He's... Joe's alive." I said barely above a whisper.

I didn't know whether I should thank Azriel for sparing his life or punch him for lying to me. Well the punch won't have been effective though.

"Finally you've spoken. He's well and killing. I meant kicking."

I punched him on his arm and glared at him. Not only was my punch ineffective but my hand hurt but my pride hurt more when he spoke.

"I feel like a feather just fell on my arm." He said and continued feeding me.

"I want to see Joe." I said.

"In due time." He replied.

"I still can't believe you're such a good cook and that wasn't meant to fuel your ego." But that didn't stop the smirk that followed.

"Considering that I hate junk food, it was mainly just us boy's living here, James practically only knows how to make pancakes and eggs and Nathaniel is so useless in the kitchen he's probably capable of burning water, I had to step up to fix the issue." He finished.

"I've noticed that Nathaniel love's to eat and considering Natalia is just as good as James in the kitchen I'm not sure they'll work out."

"I actually wanted to get pizza for you but I changed my mind."

I frowned in response.

"You look cute when you do that." He said.

"Oh my gosh. Mr gang leader, did you just give me a complement."

"I was just stating the obvious. That wasn't meant to fuel your ego." He said repeating my previous word's.

"Azriel, what about Jack?"

"We'll talk about him later doll."

"Please answer me."

"Well...James is giving him the treatment he deserves. He's going to pay a high price for laying his filthy hands on you." He said and I could almost feel the venom in his tone.

"Also Fer, Logan will be keeping you company tomorrow. I and the guys have work to do."

"Ok. Can I have pizza for dinner?"

"Your wish is my command doll." He said and left.

Immediately he left James and Nathaniel came in.

"Hey Fer." They chorused.

"Hey guys."

"How you doing?" Nathaniel asked.

"So you do care about me Nathaniel, I'm doing well thank you."

"We brought you some chocolates." James said.

"Wow thanks."

"You're welcome we'll let you be now. Take care." James said as they made their way out.

"James wait up, don't be too rough on the guy." I said.

"It's too late for Fer that, well bye."

"Bye."

The rest of the day went by quickly. I spent the whole afternoon sleeping and in the evening Azriel and I said down to have pizza.

Azriel later showed up in my room that night.

"Hey Fer, I just came to check up on you."

"Oh..um, thanks that's really thoughtful of you.".

" Well goodnight then." He said.

"Goodnight." I replied.

"Azriel.." I said stopping him as he made his way out of my room

"Yeah." He replied.

"Thank you." I said.

"It's no big deal doll.''

"I meant thank you for keeping your promise to me."

"You're welcome." He replied.

I went to bed thinking about the wonderful day I just had and I was glad because the numbness was finally gone.
