Davien shrugged. "Well, I was expecting you to say something, but since you have refused to, I don't mind doing the talking for you."

"What are you talking about?" She found his tone equally annoying. It didn't help that she knew he was enunciating his words in that manner just to annoy her.

Davien smirked. "That tactic isn't going to work, and if that's the approach you're going to take, I might just stay away for longer."
