章 32: Realising he's going too far

Clara sent the burning flame at the two demon, who didn't fought back as they were still shocked by their encounter and just wanted to run away, but was bound to earth by Clara.

They growled in pain as the fire met them and slowly turn to dust before dissipating.

Clara slowly descent down. Her eyes returned to it normal hue and she smiled with contentment. "That was fun!" She said.

....

Leo wanted to inform Clara about the fact that she will be meeting his boys the next day and warn her not to look for trouble with them, since he knew the boys might try to challenge her.

But he couldn't find her. He thought Clara went for her personal stuff, and decided to wait for her.

Leo was sitting on a single couch under a canopy, sipping his wine slowly as he waited for her, while his gaze remained locked at the direction of his residence entrance.

Time seemed to be moving too fast. minutes became hours quickly without Clara showing up. He was getting worried, as Clara has told him she prefers to stay at his place as long as her freedom is guaranteed, that she would have to move out of her house sooner or later anyway, since the place is too big for her alone, and it consists of memories she did not want to think much about.

He controlled himself to wait a few minutes more. It will be 2 o'clock in the morning after a few minutes.

After a while; he couldn't take it anymore and got up. He decided to go and search for her.

He made his way towards the entrance and began dialing her number.

Clara appeared at the entrance and saw Leo approaching, with his head buried in his phone. She didn't pick it and raised it up, while Leo also raised his head and saw her.

"You are calling me boss, hope no problem?" Clara asked as she walked closer to him.

"What do you think you are doing?" Leo asked, looking at her with an astonished gaze.

"What do you mean? I don't understand." Clara was confused by his expression.

"What is that you are putting on? and don't tell me you went clubbing like this? and moreover, why are you just coming home now?" Leo asked as he looked at her dressing in annoyance.

"You have any problem with that?" Clara asked looking annoyed herself, he has promised her freedom, and she did not see any reason why he should be concerned about her dressing and the time she returns home, as long as she's performing her duty to him.

Realising he's going too far, Leo apologise

"I'm sorry, but you should at least take a jacket with you to cover up your body when returning."

Clara scoffed, "boss, are you an idiot? why would I purchase it when I will be covering it up, and don't tell me you are affected by it, or are you?" she asked in a mocking tone.

Leo shot her a piercing glare, "you bought this with my money?" he asked.

Clara rolled her eyes at him "you said to get what I will be needing." she reminded him.

Leo let out a sharp breath at her reply, which made Clara raised her brow at him. "and you needed this? do you plan on performing strip dance at nightclubs?" he asked harshly

Clara: "ouch!"

"I'm sorry." Leo apologized and bit down at his lower lip, 'what's wrong with your head Leo?' he asked in his mind.

Clara: "can I leave now?"

Leo: "I'm sorry." He apologized again.

"You promised I could do however I want, that I can have my freedom as long as I agree to work for you." Clara said, wearing an innocent expression.

Leo looked at her apologetically, he did not understand why he was so angry at her dress mode. He knew he shouldn't be concerned about it too much since Clara is someone that says whatever comes to her mind and do however she likes, and also; he has given her his word that she could do however she wants, but the fact that his money was used to make her look like this annoyed him.

She was so exposed that he couldn't help but feel annoyed about the fact that other men have seen her this way as well. Her flat spotless tummy was bare to the eyes. The bum short she had on was too revealing and only covered down to her bum, just as its name.

"I know I'm in the wrong, I promise it won't happen again." he assured.

Clara: "good!"

Clara walked past him and made her way inside.

Factually, she was not that angry. She just doesn't want to give Leo the chance to ask for his card back.

She still has a lot of things to purchase. She planned on getting them sooner, since there is a higher chance of Leo requesting for his card soon.

"I need to discuss some things with you." Leo said, making her halt her steps.

"Couldn't it wait till morning?" Clara halted her steps and look back at him as she replied to him.

"It's morning already." Leo said.

"Oh! okay i'm listening." Clara said and walk back to where he stood.

"Please go and put something on and meet me there," he pointed at where he was sitting down when he was waiting for her.

"what are you insinuating?" Clara asked.

Leo: "....." he wondered what he has said wrong again, why did it feel like Clara is his boss instead.

"Put something on? are you saying I'm naked?" Clara asked, seeing his confused expression.

"I'm sure you understood what I meant, but why does it seem like you want to pick a fight with me on purpose?" Leo asked, raising his brow at her.

"Was it that obvious?" Clara asked with a calm soothing voice. She wouldn't deny that.

"Yes! it's very obvious, so please go in and change madam," Leo said not wanting to keep looking at her anymore.

"Ok boss!" Clara said obediently and jugged away, while Leo quickly look away from her bum that seem to be shaking at him intentionally. only one word can describe Clara, trouble!
