Sienna:“The woman literally came to your house, and I am the one to blame?” I asked, raising an eyebrow at Arturo who smirked at my reaction.“Yes, because you as my wife should have been resting while you let ME take care of it. You could have gotten hurt, and I believe that the injury on your shoulder tells you that she would not have hesitated to hurt you again.” He said, his tone more sarcastic than it ever was. I had to fight back growling at the man who shook his head at me. “And I don’t understand why you are making a fuss out of the fact that she came to MY house right now. The doctor told you to rest, and yet, you chose to get into an argument with a Lycan, more specifically, the same Lycan who initially put you in this situation.”“I am your wife, and I don’t believe that she has the right to come to a newlyweds house. Whether or not our marriage is arranged, she does not know that, and that is the least of my concerns. As long as my house, my boundaries, and OUR rules are
Arturo:I frowned at Sienna’s reaction, trying to understand where the woman was going with it only to choose to ignore her and get up. She could starve herself for all I cared, at this point, I was tired of trying to satisfy her when it was clear to me that she needed to be tamed, and right now, I didn’t have time for that bullshit. I picked the tray up with me and walked out of the room, leaving her alone with whatever attitude she was dealing with. The way she looked at me made my chest ache, and I couldn’t help the frown that formed on my face at the feeling that I got as I closed the door. But of course, I knew that life couldn’t have been harder on a Lycan like myself as my wolf whimpered in pain. I frowned, turning to the door to hear her wolf growling in both pain and rage. Her growls were filled with both sorrow and agony, and feeling my chest ache again, I knew that her pain was not physical. Her scent filled my nostrils and despite her being my chosen mate. I couldn’t he
Sienna:I frowned at the heavy feeling that settled in my chest as I opened my eyes.My eyes met Arturo’s who was sitting on a chair by the bed, looking at me, watching my expression, studying it for a few seconds. My heart raced against my ribcage, and I found myself wanting to escape his intense gaze. But the man didn’t seem as phased as I was, if anything, he seemed to be a lot more relaxed. “I will not hurt you, Sienna.” He said, pushing me back as I tried to sit up. “But you need to rest, and the only way for me to have you do that is for me to sit by your head, ensuring that you didn’t try doing anything that is far too stupid for your safety.”“You are lying, and I don’t expect you to think that I would believe a word that you are saying.” I said, glaring at him. “You are choosing to use big words for a woman who has barely met me.” Arturo said, and I rolled my eyes as I sat up, recalling the fact that he had walked back inside the room after he left. The word mate having es
Arturo:I watched as Sienna sat in front of me, raising an eyebrow as she waited for what I had to say. In truth, even I wasn’t completely sure how this was going to turn out. But I knew that the two of us needed to talk about it. If anything, the two of us needed to find a middle line to make sure that we did not end up fighting again. It was starting to get on my nerves, and I was not a person who liked to be annoyed with such issues. “Look, I know that things started out very wrong. The two of us mated without even knowing that we were mates, and though I am not even sure how that was possible, we will be looking into it.” I said, looking her in the eye, watching as she calmed down somehow. “I know that things seem to be a little more messed up than we would like them to be, but we have no other option right now than to deal with it the way things were.”“You are repeating the same thing in different phrases.” She said, tilting her head to the right as she studied my expression.
Sienna:“What are we going to do today?” I asked, shaking my head in question. I knew that the two of us had a lot to do. From responsibilities to public gatherings. The two of us as newlyweds or as new mates to be more specific. The number of traditions that we had to follow were plenty. And Anika deciding to choose to injure me before they happened was something that annoyed me.“You are going to rest, and I will be tending to your needs as my wife.” He said, and I frowned in confusion. The man couldn’t be serious, I doubted that he was right now.“Arturo, we have our responsibilities to tend to, and the last thing we need is for the elders to think that we are neglecting them. You do know that we also have to invite them over…”“We will, and we won’t be neglecting anything. They would be coming here with your parents, and we would be hosting them here. They would see that the two of us are spending time together, away from the family, and that would be a plus for us.” He said, and
Arturo:I ran my fingers through my hair as I walked out of the bedroom, trying to think of what she told me. The way her eyes avoided mine as she grew uncomfortable, her body language, everything just played in my head as I recalled the conversation, trying to find a proper reason for it. And the thing was, I couldn’t, nothing really did explain what happened.Her asking for time to not answer was not something that I found as normal, and the fact that we were yet to get any information about her was something that also confused me. It was like the woman was living in vague, but that wasn’t something that I liked or understood. I walked to my office, and sat on my desk as I opened my laptop. I had a few things to read through, and the more I delayed my work, the more it would pile up on me, and that wasn’t something that I liked. Therefore, knowing that Sienna was now asleep, I knew that I could tend to them. I picked up the phone that was in my office, calling Alfred, knowing that
Sienna:“Arturo, can you please help me with the zipper?” I asked, walking toward Arturo who was fixing his tie. The man was already ready, and was merely putting on a tie and he hasn’t been getting ready for twenty minutes. Where I, I have been getting ready for the past three hours to ensure that I was ready on time, and he was ready long before I was. If anyone asked me, I didn’t think that it was fair, but then again, I didn’t have a say in the nature of how things went. Sadly…“Sure.” He said, wrapping his arm around me, motioning for me to turn around. He wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to his chest. My cheeks reddened and his hot breath hit my neck as he leaned in to kiss my neck from the back. The man let his lips linger there for a few seconds before he pulled away to kiss my cheek.He slowly pulled up my zipper, brushing his finger with my back, making my body shudder as goosebumps rose over my skin. “There you go.”“Thank you.” I said turning to face him
Arturo:Nikolay glared at his wife whose eyes were fixed on me.I knew that she was doing this out of revenge, but the woman was crossing the line. “I don’t think that you have any proof of what you are saying, Anika, but if it helps you; I would love to prove to you and your mates that I am not what you just claimed that I am.” I said, glaring at the woman who smiled at me. Her smile was one that I knew very well, it was the same one that she had on her face when she chose to be with Nikolay. The woman did it when I rejected her wanting to get a reaction out of me, and when she saw that there was no reaction, she grew angrier.“We’ll be the ones to investigate and judge that. The woman is a cop, and I do recommend that you speak to her with respect to ensure that you don’t end up behind bars.” Her colleague said and I nodded, giving her a cold smile. I looked at Sienna and nodded, watching as she smiled back, her smile assuring. She knew that things were going to be okay, but the fa
