Chapter 29. Break Up

Arya’s face was still ruffled and her eyebrows furrowed as she remembered the words of her cousin. She should have slapped her twice, left and right.

 Damien noticed her fists clenched, he smirked. “I totally loved the energy with your cousin back there. I’m not an advocate for peace either.”

 She exhaled, blowing all the annoyance she was feeling. Facing Damien, she ran her hands through her hair, while staring at him.

 He was confused by the move, being distracted and he nearly hit someone’s car. Was she trying to seduce him or was he misunderstanding the situation?

 “Is there a reason you wanted me to be your contracted wife? Because I don’t think there’s a need for me to be.” Arya asked.

 Damien felt at ease that she wasn’t trying to seduce him but he didn’t know how to react. He cleared his throat. “From what I remembered, you called me first.”

 She agreed. “Yes, but then I didn’t know you and was desperate.”
