Chapter 54: GABRIELLA

I was on cloud nine the whole day. People kept commenting on my new glow, some suspected the cause of it I’m sure but I didn’t share, not even when prodded. Of course there were lots of head nodding and ‘I sees’ once they got a look at my collar.

At first, I felt a little shy about people seeing it and obviously knowing what it meant. But my new joy soon overcame even that slight unease.

My every thought was of him, I missed his scent, his touch, his nearness. And when I called him that afternoon at the appointed time, I broke into tears for no plausible reason. I think I scared the heck out of him with that one.

“Kitten, what is it, what’s happened?” I heard the restrained anger in his voice, like he was ready to vanquish whatever had brought me sorrow or pain.
