Liam sudden question jolted Wura out of her daze, she was shocked that he was holding her so close to him, and in that moment, she immediately got hold of her senses and she pushed Liam away from herself quickly.
"Why are you holding me in that manner?" asked Wura as she looked at him with anger, just who did he think he was to just suddenly hold her like that??? Since when did he start doing such, they were too close.
"Are you not my wife?" asked Liam in amusement as he saw the anger in her eyes.
"And so, that does not matter, you cannot just pull me close like that, it is inappropriate" said Wura as she glared at him.
"What is inappropriate about that? You are my wife after all" said Liam as he smiled.
"You and I both know that we are not like that" said Wura.
"Like what??" asked Liam as he smiled.
"Close like that, we are not close like that, so it does not make sense for you to hold me so close to you in such a way that suggest we are that close" said Wura.
"Alright, so let me understand this" said Liam.
"It is not alright for me to want to hold you close, as you are my wife, but it is alright for you to kick me underneath the table for no reason at all?" asked Liam as he smiled.
"Ahh… well…" said Wura as she remembered that she had truly kicked him, so did that mean that he was getting back at her for that, but his way to get back at her was truly odd.
"Well that is different your highness" said Wura.
"Oh really??" asked Liam as he smiled and Wura nodded her head.
"How much so?" asked Liam as he wondered what she could probably come up with.
"Ahh well… the truth is that my leg accidentally slipped, and that was why I hit you" said Wura as she smiled.
"Is that so now?" asked Liam as he did not believe her one bit, he blow he had received to the knew earlier was not by accident, it was carefully planned to give him maximum damage, but he did not flinch at all.
"Because you would be lying to your husband" said Liam as he smiled.
"Your highness, just who do you take me for to lie?" asked Wura as she pretended to be offended.
"My leg was truly tired from all the walking earlier and I needed to stretch it a bit, and hence why your own leg happened to be across me and I hit you…" said Wura.
"Well you should have just said so earlier, I would have gladly helped you to stretch out your legs" said Liam as he smiled.
"Your highness, just what are you saying?" asked Wura in shock.
"What are you thinking?" asked Liam with a smug look on his face.
"You know what your highness, I will not stand for this, it is cold out here" said Wura as she had had enough of this talk.
"Have a bad night your highness" said Wura as she scoffed and she turned around to walk back into the Castle, leaving Liam there with a smile on his face, she was obviously flustered and yet she his behind her pride as a form of defence.
"Have a goodnight as well Wura" said Liam as he smiled and he chuckled to himself, he did not know why he liked to tease her so? Maybe it was because she was so easy to tease.
"That man is so, so vile…" said Wura as she fell on her bed, now she remembered why she had disliked him when they had first met, she had forgotten because he had been so nice to her, but now, he was just so horrible.
"I find him very, very annoying, very" said Wura as she groaned, she was getting a headache from all his problems, he was always just too.. too much for her gosh.
"Why did I have to meet him?? Oh why??" asked Wura to herself as she was very upset, she just could not take anymore of this, it was too much, she really hoped that he had a bad night.
"Why did he have to pull me so close??" asked Wura as she touched her heart and it was beating fast just like it was when he had done that action so suddenly, she just hoped that he could not hear her racing heart, she had never been close to any other man like that before, excluding her Father and Uncle, that was different they were her family and well Liam… well he was not part of her family.
The way he held her so close just made her feel so warm and weird on the inside.
"Stop thinking about it Wura, you are only making it worse" said Wura to herself as she shook her head, the more she thought about it the worse her heart raced, she was flushed she was sure that if her skin was any lighter she would have turned beet red.
"Does he feel nothing at all when he holds me like that??" asked Wura to herself as she played with a strand of her hair, it was a habit she had developed, she liked to play with her hair when she was stressed, confused or worried.
"Maybe he does not feel anything like I do when he does such things, then does that mean that I am only overreacting and I am only seeing things that are not there??" asked Wura to herself as she could not understand at all, maybe she was overreacting.
"Alright Wura, stop this, stop all your thinking, he and you are different" said Wura as she sighed.
"Yes… we are different" said Wura to herself as she closed her eyes, she felt too tired to change into her nightwear, but nevertheless, she still had to do so, so she stood up from her bed and she walked to her closet, she just hoped that she would be able to sleep tonight, but with the way her heart was racing and her thoughts as well, she found it highly unlikely.
…
The next morning.
"Good Morrow Wura" said Liam as he smiled and he saw Wura walk into the dining room.
"Good Morrow your highness" said Wura as she sat down across him, she was not in the mood to communicate with him at all.
"How was your night?" asked Liam as he smiled.
"Good" replied Wura as she ate, she slept rather well, even though she thought that she would not have.
"And how was your night?" asked Wura out of courtesy.
"It was rather bad" said Liam.
"Really??" asked Wura as she looked at Liam and her eyes immediately lit up in delight, did that mean that she was a seer?? And if so, she was glad that what she wished him actually came to pass, so she could make sure he could not annoy her again, she would just wish him bad luck.
"Well of course not, I had a rather good night, I dreamt if cake" said Liam as he smiled.
"Unfortunately for me" said Wura as she scoffed and Liam smiled at her in amusement.
"Would you have liked for me to have a bad night?" asked Liam as he laughed.
"Well yes" said Wura as she replied honestly.
"Well sorry to say, but if I have a bad night, you would have one as well" said Liam as he laughed.
"Oh my, I forgot about his sudden mood changes, if he had a bad night, he would probably be in a bad mood and take it out on me" said Wura to herself as she shook her head.
"Well then, I would just lock up myself in my room, that way I would not come in contact with your bad mood" said Wura as she smiled.
"I really am surprised that you have already thought of a way to avoid me" said Liam as he laughed.
"Believe me your highness, I have more ways than that to avoid you" said Wura as she smiled happily.
"You say that as if it is a good thing" said Liam as he laughed.
"Well your highness, it is a good thing, you may be unbearable sometimes" said Wura.
"And the other times?" asked Liam as he smiled.
"Well the other times, you can be very, very annoying" said Wura as she smiled at him.
"Oh, I thought that you would say that I was charming?" asked Liam as he laughed.
"No your highness, you are not charming at all, but Nolan is truly charming" said Wura as she smiled.
"I see" said Liam as he smiled, at least she was talking to him again.
"*Ahem*" said Wura as she cleared her throat, she had just realized that she was speaking with the enemy so happily.
"Your highness if you would mind, I would like to eat in silence" said Wura.
"Alright then, go on" said Liam as he smiled.
