Both of them were stunned with her sudden outburst about marking. Nicholas blinked his eyes twice, thrice and several more times as he leaned closer to look her in the eyes. "Did I hear you correctly? Did you ask me about marking you?"
'Why the hell should I admit to it?' Serina thought and winced. "You are mistaken. You must have heard it from other people. Don't eavesdrop on their conversation anymore. Let's go. It's getting darker."
[It was her.] Ayla told Nicholas directly which paled Serina. She didn't dare admit to it but her wolf didn't go along with her plan. She sided with Nicholas.
"I didn't." Serina tried justifying herself but Nicholas smirked, not believing her. "What's funny?"
"You."
"I hate you!" Serina pushed him away from her but Nicholas grabbed her other hand and now, he's got both tightly woven with his. "It was a slip of the tongue."
