Chapter Thirteen

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

I follow him out of the shop and up the staircase, until we reach the apartment.

"What's your name?" I ask him, even though I know it.

I just want to hear him speak.

"I am Jim," he says.

"It's a pleasure to meet you," I say.

My voice is soft and calm, and I feel a deep respect for him.

He unlocks the door.

We enter and he flips on a light.

The room is sparsely decorated.

There is a bed and a desk.

There is a fireplace, with a couch and chair arranged around it.

He leads me to the bedroom, where he shows me to the bathroom.

There's a tub, which I assume is for bathing.

There is a sink, and a toilet.

"I'll leave you to it then," Jim says.

I nod.

My mind is racing.

I have met my soulmate.

Everything is amazing.

And yet, I feel a deep sadness.

Because I know that I can't be with him.

He's a human!

A human and a werewolf can never be together.

Not unless I were to turn him...

I shake away the thoughts as I undress and step into the tub.
