Chapter 27

*DEREK's POV*

Just what is taking her so long?

I waited patiently in the living room. My eyebrow furrowed as I unceasingly tapped on the sofa hand rest, my eyes locked towards the door in front of me.

It's been 3 hours since she left, so I couldn't guess what kind of matter she was dealing with, when all I ordered her to do was ask the main kitchen to deliver the supplies.

Should I just go to her?

I rubbed my temples together, "She's such a troublesome she-wolf."

At that moment, I was aware that I was painstakingly waiting for her like an idiot. The impulse wasn't something that I could prevent, unlike the others. My bond with her was more potent than anyone else.

I could sense her well as if she were my other half. Feeling anxious, I didn't hesitate any more and tried to reach out to her via mind link.

['Where are you? Do you know what time is it?']

No answer. I sighed, my knuckles cracked in irritation.
