At first, Mira's eyes creased. She was not sure if she heard him right. "What do you mean?" She asked carefully and took a step closer to him.
Ming Tao immediately snapped. "Like I said before, I owe you no explanation. You will respect my guests and treat them right."
There he was again, the cold person she met this morning. Mira swallowed. She almost fell for that and it made her feel stupid. It was as if he was purposely toying with her emotions because he knew it would get to her. Almost like he wanted to give her some hope all to snatch it away. Mira could not understand this new behaviour and she could not think of anything to warrant it. Why was her own husband letting an outsider into the clan when he knew fully well how dangerous that person was to her?
"Will you still treat me this way if you knew I was with child?" Mira asked in a solemn whisper. "If for instance, there was a possibility that our mating two nights before created an offspring." She voiced.
