"Now you’re behaving like a pup."
"Who knows if I’m indeed a pup of five years old? I don’t remember anything." Arabella said stupid things to prove her point, to which Wylder scoffed.
"I will buy you a new phone if you will tell me your problem."
"What do you think I am? A gold digger?" She questioned him, getting offended. Wylder sighed, not knowing what he should do with this girl. She was stubborn. He knew that he had to find out about that problem on his own to solve it because she wasn’t going to tell him anything.
"You’re unnecessarily picking things to fight with me, Ara," Wylder said, pushing her away from her and standing up on his feet. "I’m already dealing with a lot of things in my life. I will appreciate it if you will help me in solving those things rather than increasing them like a spoiled princess."
"I’m not PRINCESS." Arabella snapped.
A small smile tugged at his lips when he heard that line again. He knew how much someone used to hate that word.
"From now onwards, I will not create any trouble in your life if I won’t be there to solve any," Arabella spoke sincerely, hating the fact that she started missing his touch all of a sudden. "I will try to paint the images of the rest of the people." She added next because she too didn’t want to be the reason behind Wylder’s tension.
Wylder didn’t comment on that part and observed her for a while and tried to put 2x2 about how she had scoffed when he had mentioned "our room," and she was mad when he came in the morning.
"If you’re mad at me because I didn’t return to our room last night, then it’s because I was in the hospital as you threw Tiara with so much force that her shoulder dislocated."
"What?"
"Yes, you…"
"So, you weren't busy with fucking her?" She asked, cutting him in between. She ignored the fact that what happened to Tiara Tiara got what she had started.
"What? Nooo." Wylder shook his head. "Don’t tell me that you thought that I was with her when I wasn’t here." He asked and saw her smiling sheepishly. "I can’t believe you." He added in disbelief. Now he understood why she was behaving like that. Why didn’t she let him touch her?
So that was the reason because of why she cried and was upset.
"Can you blame me? You both are mates and Mates don’t leave a chance to jump on each other." She pointed out.
"Still you were upset? Even after knowing that she is my mate." Wylder asked, to which Arabella looked away. She knew that truth but couldn’t digest it. There was something between them that she couldn’t name yet. And it wasn’t one-sided. She had seen him reacting for her in the same way.
"How will you feel watching me with some other man?" She asked in a low tone. The way, his eyes turned blue within a second, and she got her answer.
"I’m not a man who entertains two women at the same time, Ara," Wylder responded. "You might have sensed that Night is a thing for you that’s why you pulled that stunt outside in the swimming pool. But I will appreciate it if you don’t repeat something like that again."
