It’s my rule
Nebula’s Pov
When we both got home, it was very late in the night, and we were both tired and weak.
I was so exhausted that I collapsed on the bed.
“Let’s take a quick shower, ” Combo suggested, but I waved him off and closed my eyes; In no time I fell into a deep slumber.
Combo also crawled to my side, and we both cuddled up.
The continuous annoying ringing tone of Combo’s phone interrupted my amazing dream.
“Hmmm,” I sluggishly opened my eyes, wondering who had the boldness to call Combo so early in the morning.
Combo was still fast asleep, so I gently removed his arms from my waist and stood up for the bed.
“Hey Commando, I am sorry for calling you so early in the morning, but lord Ralph called for an emergency meeting, we have recruited the new members, and we want to swear them in. Today is their oath ceremony, and we need your presence, we want you to be there, ” German said with his hoarse voice, and apologized once again.
“Okay, ” I replied curtly and cut the call. I didn’t want him to find out that Combo was not the one who picked up the call.
I turned to go back to bed, but to my greatest surprise, Combo was staring at me, his hands were crossed around his stomach, and he had a frown on his face. I knew at once that I was going to explain throughout that day.
“Hey good morning, how was your night?” I asked nervously and formed a fake smile.
“Why did you pick up my call?” He asked, ignoring my greets.
“I…. I… didn’t… . want… the… call… to… disturb… you,” I stammered, I knew that I was the one at fault, well because I made the rules.
“Have you forgotten that you were the one who said that we should stop answering each other’s calls,” Combo said, and stood up from the bed.
I kept quiet, unsure of what to say. Indeed, I was the one who made the rule, but at that time the rule greatly favored me. Because whenever Cory called, I didn’t like Combo answering it.
“I am so sorry, it was my fault, ” I apologized and bowed my head. But Combo didn’t look impressed. He kept staring at me, waiting for my next move.
“I promise you, it won’t happen again, ” I promised, although I was hurt to see that Combo was overprotective of his phone, I just decided to overlook it.
“My phone, ” Combo deadpanned and stretched out his palm.
I sadly dropped his phone in his hand, he collected it and scrolled through the internet.
After a few minutes, he turned to look at me, “What did the person want?” he asked with raised brows.
“What person?” I asked, feigning innocence.
“Huh huh!” Combo cleared his throat, “I mean who called me?” he corrected his sentence.
“Oh! There was no one. He called to greet you,” I lied through my teeth.
I didn’t mean to lie, but neither did I want anything to come between my plans.
Well yes, I plan to spend the whole day with Combo, and nothing is going to spoil my plans.
“He? Who is he? And why is he calling to greet me? ” Combo asked me curiously, I guess he was starting to suspect me.
“How am I supposed to know why he is calling you?” I asked and pretended to be irritated, “Anyway, his name is German,” I smiled broadly.
“Now my little wifey, why are you lying to me, huh? Why are you lying to my face?” Combo asked with a cunning smile, and I was shocked beyond words.
“Tell me the truth, wife, who called me? And what does the person want?” Combo asked once again and cupped my cheeks.
“Well, it was German, and he said something about the newly recruited members and the oath ceremony, ” I murmured, moving only my lips as I spoke. I felt hypnotized by his handsome face, and our eyes locked.
“Oh! But why is he calling so early in the morning? Is he ready to die?!” Combo asked, gently removing his hands from my cheeks.
“Trust me, German will be in the best position to answer your question, ” I replied and sighed.
“Oh yeah, I guess you are right, ” Combo reasoned.
“But commando, did you instruct the boys to recruit more members? ” I asked curiously; I was curious and worried. I was deeply worried about the young youths’ futures.
“Well yes, I told them to recruit more members, we need more males and females,” Combo replied, confirming my deepest concern.
I immediately developed cold feet.
“But what about Asher and Lolo?” I asked him nervously; worried about my younger ones’ future.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Outcast, they are now outcast; in fact, Ralph said that I should punish you, ” Comno replied, his response got me by surprise, and I burst into laughter.
“Punish? Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!” I laughed merrily.
“What is so funny? Shouldn’t you appreciate me, I mean I saved your life from death,” Combo winced annoyingly.
“Death, what do you mean? How can you joke with death?” I asked curiously; anxiety was written all over my face.
“Ralph wanted to send his trope after you guys because you betrayed him,” Combo replied and sat down on his bed; “But, I told him to back off, ” he smiled, feeling proud of himself.
I knew what the smile meant, he wanted me to thank him, but I wasn’t going to satisfy his request.
“Look her Combo, I don’t care about your Ralph, nor do I care if he is after my life!” I replied boldly.
“Oh really! Who will save you then, if Ralph orders his men to kill you, do you think you can overpower them alone?” He asked with that annoying and cunning smile on his face.
I was lost for a minute, “You! You will save me, and make sure that no harm comes upon me,” I said with confidence and raised my head proudly.
“Ah! Ah! Ah!” Combo laughed at me, “It seems I have spoiled you too much,” he said with raised brows.
“What?” I furrowed my brows at him, “If not me, who else are you supposed to spoil with your love and attention? ” I asked suspiciously.
“Well it’s you, if not you, I am going to spoil Nebula Cambridge,” Combo replied with sarcasm, a slight smile was on his face, and the smile extended to his cheeks.
“Awww,” I blushed, my cheeks turning red; “Don’t be so cheesy, will you?” I scolded him with a shy face.
“OMG! You look so adorable whenever you blush,” Combo complimented me. And I blushed wildly.
“Oh! Combo Cambridge, I love you more than anything else,” I was moved to tears as I spoke.
And indeed, Combo is my man, although we had our differences, I have never for once stopped loving him.
He is my life, my sunshine, my stars, my love, and my heartbeat. Hmm, well, I technically don’t have a heart.
“I love you far more than you can think Neb, you are my world, and I am deeply sorry for my past mistakes,” he apologized once again, I could see the sincerity and love in his eyes, and his cute face fluttered my heart.
I turned red, I didn’t even know what to say, but I just nodded my head, and offered him a meek smile.
“How about we forget our pains and hit it up a little, ” I proposed, and luckily Como liked my proposal because he nodded his head in agreement.
“Do you want to see what is behind this magnificent body?” I asked, and winked at him, trying to seduce him with my body.
“Oh, bring it on, baby!” Combo stood up, he already had a boner. And I was happy to see that my body interested him that much.
*Everybody, the wolf’s are out, humans are dead….
Everyone claps, vampires…..*
Combo’s weird ringing tone distracted us. I have begged him several times to change his phone’s ringing tone, but he just never listens.
Combo picked up the call at once, and a few moments later, his face turned pale.
I was worried, and the first person that came to my mind was Cory.
“Oh no! Could it be Cory?”
