'They say never judge a book by its cover'. That's how Isabelle has been living her whole life. So she reserves all judgment till later.
"Isabelle"
That's the third time her friend Amy has called me. They are late for school and Isabelle is still having difficulties deciding which lipstick to use. She is not a makeup freak.
"Isabelle" Once again she heard her name louder this time which shows that Amy was getting impatient. The reason for her impatient was because of their lateness but because she's seeing her mate for the first time in two weeks
"Isabelle, if you don't come down this instant, I am coming up there and I'm carrying you to school whether you are ready or not." Amy screamed with much anger
"I'm coming" Isabelle put her out of her misery by deciding to put on the red lipstick. It's pretty much what she puts on every day. She ran downstairs after a quick look in the mirror. She smiled as what she saw was satisfactory.
"Thank your stars you're out, if not my shoulder would've been your ride." Amy glared at Isabelle. Isabelle looked at her friend with horror because she was serious. If Isabelle has wasted any more time, she would have forcefully carried her to school. She is a werewolf so Isabelle would weigh next to a feather as werewolves are super strong. Isabelle studied the body frame of her friend Amy. She couldn't get how such a small body would be so strong, she is far stronger than any human she knows.
They are living in a supernatural world consisting of Vampires, Wolves, Witches, and lastly humans. A portal connected the supernatural world to the human world but the portal has long been closed. The humans that are living in the supernatural world were abducted from the earth when the portal was still open. The humans were used as slaves for a very long time till someone liberated them. They all know of the story since it's their history. How the Great King of the Supernatural world freed the humans and ended the war.
"Girls you're late for school," Henrietta, Isabelle's mom said while coming down still on her nightgown
"be going," she said as she shoved them out the door. Isabelle was the one who was shoved because Amy was already out and heading to her car. She uses the car because of Isabelle. Isabelle's father bought her a car but she was too lazy to drive. So, Amy bought one for them to drive around with, since it would be awkward to always carry Isabelle around.
"So all this, for Damian." Isabelle said as she sat on the passenger seat
"Yes, I haven't seen him for two weeks, my wolf can't keep calm because she knows we will be seeing him today." She said as she drove off
When they got to the school Damian was already in front of Amy's locker waiting. On seeing him she ran to him and threw herself on him and they engaged in a hot kiss. Isabelle was disgusted by it and wouldn't want it to hunt her in dreams, so she looked away. Luckily for her, she saw her ever-charming cute boyfriend, Silas. He is a wizard and a strong one he's from a strong generation of witches and wizards. Isabelle just smiled as he was walking towards her, she was never the type for PDA (public display affection) or probably she is just lazy.
"Hi," said Silas as he reached and kissed her forehead and Isabelle felt glad that he didn't go for the lips
"Hi" She replied trying to sound cute. 'I don't know if it's me or that our relationship lacks this electricity and butterfly I read in novels or the one in Amy and Damian's relationship, maybe they have it because they are wolves and their mate bond is strong and love is different for humans.' Isabelle quietly thought to herself but still smiled nonetheless.
"So how was your weekend?" he asked
"It was fine" she replied with a shrug that has always been their routine "and yours?" now that's like a ticket to Silas's talk show and Isabelle was aware of it.
"It was fun, I tried developing a new spell but it didn't work. I think I am missing something....." She just tuned him out. When they started dating in their junior years, Isabelle was ecstatic about dating a wizard. She was hoping he would surprise her one day with a shiny spell like fireworks or even make a spark to wow her. Sadly, Silas has never done something like that but instead always tells her about his failed or almost successful spell. She lost the excitement of dating a wizard.
"They stopped kissing," Silas said as he got Isabelle's attention back
"Yes, that's Amy and Damian they were kissing all this while. I swear they never get tired of exchanging saliva." Isabelle said with a shudder.
"I am not that type of person." Silas added and Isabelle was quick to reply.
"Good," I said with a disgusting look. Silas' smile wore off as he wasn't expecting Isabelle to respond too quickly. He just lied now because he wanted to do what Damian just did with his mate. He can count on one finger how many times he had kissed Isabelle. He swallowed hard and went over to Damian. The two guys greeted each other and Isabelle had her attention on Amy. Amy would have been all red if she is fair but lucky her, she's chocolate skin. The only evidence that showed she had a fierce kiss was her swollen lips. Isabelle wanted to make fun of Amy about her lips but unfortunately, the bell rang so they all left for their classes. They have the same subject for the first period so they all made their way to the class. Isabelle was hugging her books with both hands to my chest and that's her strategy of making Silas not hold her hand. Silas was trying to make up a conversation and Isabelle was glad that he was trying but she would love the silence better.
Amy and Damian were holding hands and whispering to each other's ear. Isabelle felt jealous of them. She has always wanted that, it was even part of the reason she started dating Silas, but she can't find herself doing it with him. She can't explain it but it feels so wrong to even kiss him.
