Chapter 14

Isabella's POV
My heart was still beating unsteadily. I was still standing behind the bathroom door. But I didn't hear Ethan's voice from outside. Did he come back out of the house? I took a deep breath and started to exhale directly from my mouth. Then dared to open the bathroom door. Going out with a feeling of doubt. But I shouldn't have stayed in the bathroom for a long time without any useful activities other than just standing without a definite purpose. I was just running away from the problem earlier and trying to calm myself down to be able to control myself.
I saw Ethan still sitting in the same place with a serious expression on his own activities. I saw him strange and reluctant to say hello to start a conversation. He also didn't really care about my existence. He was so different from usual. But luckily he didn't ask questions that hadn't been answered before. I felt safe, but on the other hand, I felt uneasy because his attitude was suddenly colder, so unlike usual. I went straight into the room and lay down. Then I didn't realize I just fell asleep. Until I found Ethan was already in the room when I woke up. I don't know why I suddenly felt surprised by his presence here. He had just finished taking a shower and was getting dressed.
"Hey Isabella, you're awake too. Are you very tired?" He turned to me and his position was still standing with his back to me.
I swallowed my saliva
"Umm, not bad."
Ethan approached me and looked at me at a very close distance. I could feel the scent of his breath which was still fresh because he had just finished taking a shower. I immediately felt embarrassed and just stood there stiffly without moving anything. Suddenly he bit my neck. I was even more shocked and my eyelids automatically opened wide. I swallowed my saliva deeply. I felt the desire to make love to him was starting to grow. This was no joke, it was like he was stimulating me. Suddenly I became wild and responded to his stimulation very aggressively. Echoing filling all the emptiness of this room.
"Auuuuuuu."
Getting more unbearable, he hugged my body and started pulling my clothes up. I was really transformed by him into a woman who had no other choice but to choose him as my partner. Ethan was really good at teasing me. I was attracted by him to the point of being more brutal.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked while stroking her cheek softly. Right in front of her face I immediately kissed the corner of her lips.
"I'm just jealous."
"Huh, jealous?" I was automatically shocked and pushed her body away from mine.
"Hey, what's wrong with you, Isabella?"
I suddenly felt shaking, that meant Ethan had found out where I was.
"Do you know something?"
"Huh know what? What do you mean? Try to explain it to me!"
It seemed like Ethan was baiting me to tell him the truth about this afternoon when I met Lucas in the Shadow Fang Pack area. Could it be that he was following me? Did that really happen? But where did he start following my trail? Why didn't I feel like someone was following me and spying on me?
I looked away from his gaze. Because it was too hard, to be honest and tell the truth.
"Okay, if there's no problem," Ethan said coldly again.
Spontaneously I turned my head back to him.
"I have something to do." He just walked away leaving me.
I am now left alone in a stiff state. Feeling cold after getting unusual treatment from Ethan. I feel confused about what to do now. Should I be completely honest with Ethan? Or should I keep hiding this secret from anyone, especially Ethan? I am in a dilemma because of this binding situation.
"Damn it!" I whispered in annoyance.
Feeling annoyed by Lucas' sudden presence in my life. He really is a troublemaker in my household life. Until I am confused about how to fix things with my husband. Now there is only shame and fear. It is a shame to secretly meet Lucas. And the fear of losing Ethan forever.
Hoping it won't last long. I can only wait here in the house. Until Ethan really comes home. I can't even get out of the house and am reluctant to tell Lila about this problem. I can't face Lila's response which will definitely blame me. Indeed I am in the wrong position. Because I already have a husband. But on the other hand, what's wrong with me following my thoughts to satisfy my curiosity? I really need an answer soon. I can't just stay silent like this. My mind keeps struggling and wondering about all the new things that have entered my life. Lucas really messed me up.
The hours kept rolling but Ethan didn't come home. It was getting dark, I was still alone here. Waiting for my husband to come home was the worst thing in my life. Regret started to haunt me again. My thoughts were getting wilder and I hoped Ethan would come home soon. I was really made like a fool by this unclear situation. Until I started to get tired of waiting and unknowingly fell back asleep.
It was already morning and the sunlight shone through the window that I hadn't had time to close last night. I felt like I had just woken up from a nightmare last night. Starting to forget about my problems and Ethan's. I got up from my original position and got out of bed. Walking out of the room. Making sure everything was safe like a normal morning. I found the house was still quiet. It turned out that I was the only one here. Ethan didn't come home?
I sat on the dining chair and took a sip of water after pouring it. My gaze was blank and straight feeling stiff. What's wrong with Ethan? Is he really mad at me? Am I... Ahh no! I... Yes, it seems like Ethan knows everything and this is an expression of his anger. He really seriously said the word jealous yesterday. I thought he was just joking and trying to bait me into telling a story. It turns out he really knows everything. Yes, Ethan knows about my meeting with Lucas.
Maybe he feels that I have betrayed him. I think he has been thinking bad thoughts about me. He must be suspicious of my relationship with Lucas. Moreover, Lucas had openly declared it at that time. That means the fire of jealousy began to burn large in Ethan's chest. It was really the first time I found Ethan like that to me. Can our household still be maintained with this kind of test? What should I do now to work around so that the atmosphere of our household remains harmonious? I daydreamed in real confusion. I hope there will be a miracle that comes right now.
