บท 181: Acceptable

Being stopped in his tracks at her unexpected action, Sebastian turned around. Izabelle was not looking at him. She was staring down at her lap as she gripped two of his fingers. 

Thinking that she was just probably a little scared of being left behind, Sebastian bent and cradled her face with his large palm. His action pulled her face up to look at him. 

"I'll have Lucas be on standby by the door. I'll be back in a couple of minutes." He told her with assurance. Her grip on his fingers loosened and her hand dropped to her lap. But she did not look at him again. 

Sebastian's brows creased slightly at her reaction. However, he really needed to feed now. He could not be with her when he was starving like this. Warning bells had already been ringing since he was sniffing her a while ago. So, he had better go first and deal with his needs. 

Staring at her for a moment, he kissed the crown of her head and then strode towards the door.
