Chapter 37 I Want You To Take The Lead, My Sweet Isabella

• Isabella’s POV
• It was the last day of my period, and over the past few days, I had only been teasing Ezekiel. He handled it with such grace and care, taking care of me as though I was his girlfriend. He made sure I had everything I needed, and his attention to detail warmed my heart.
• But nights were different. Ezekiel tried to avoid sleeping beside me, probably to maintain boundaries, but I had already made him my bad habit. Without his arms around me, sleep felt impossible. Every night, I called him to come to bed. He’d always say, “Sleep first. I’ll be late.”
