Chapter 268: Bargaining With Her

After the meeting was over, Marcel found himself hovering outside Arianna's door. This time, he didn't just want to see her, he needed to discuss something with her but he didn't know how to approach her.

Would she even want to see his face after the fight last night? Marcel ran his hand through his hair, he shouldn't have kissed her. At least now, their relationship wouldn't be this tense.

But then he couldn't help it. Marcel liked her and when she wouldn't stop stirring his blood, he lost control. He wanted to pull her to him and kiss the daylight out of her - show her that he could treat her better than her runaway boyfriend. But that was easier said than done.

Marcel knew he couldn't stand here forever. He had to make a move and take a risk. If she still doesn't respond to him after this, he'd leave her alone to come around at her own space - and the time it takes to catch Elijah.
