Amara POV
…..
It has been two days since the incident with Daniel at Walmart. Ever since than Dimitri has been on edge for some reason. He has tighten security and I can’t go anywhere without him knowing.
” Hey Mary, have you seen Dimitri today?” I ask her as I walk into the kitchen.
Mary was standing by the stove making spaghetti for lunch. She stirs the tomatoe sauce before looking over at me.
” Yeah, I think he took Sadie outside to play in the sandbox.” She tells me as she looks back at what she is doing.
” I thought Liam had Sadie?” I say to her as I take a seat at the table.
I swear spaghetti has ever smelled so good! My mouth is watering just smelling it. Mary makes the best spaghetti. I don’t know why but Mary has took over making breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Not that I am complaining her cooking is amazing.
” He did but she came waddling into the kitchen for a snack, and saw Dimitri getting a drink. The second she we saw him. Her little face light up and she ran right up too him. She been with Dimitri for about two hours now.” She tells me as she puts the lid on the pot full of tomatoe sauce.
I watch as she walks over and pulls a chair back from the table before taking a seat next to me.
” So how was your sleep? You slept in pretty late today.” She says with a smile. ” You and Dimitri have sex?” She asked with a raised brow.
I roll my eyes, ” No, we have not had sex. Not to mention Sadie sleeps in the room with us.”
” So, are you saying that I need to take her for tonight?” She asked with a wide smile.
I let out a laugh, ” No! I am not having sex with Dimitri! Just because he forced me to move into his room does not mean I have to sleep with him. Beside I am just friends with him.” I tell her.
” Sweetie, he moved you into his house. Adopted little Sadie and gives you everything you need. Not to mention he keeps calling you his women. I think you are long past the friendship phase.”
She does have a point.
” I never told him to do those things. He didn’t even give me a choice in letting him Adopt Sadie. It’s either his way or consequences.” I tell her with a sigh.
” I think maybe if you give him a chance. You would see a better side of him.” She stands up causing the chair to slide back. She walks over to the stove and takes the lid off the pot of tomatoe sauce too give it a stir.
Something seems fishy about this conversation.
” Did Dimitri put you up to this? I don’t recall you trying to push me into a relationship before.” I question her and watches as her back tenses.
I knew it!
” He talked you into it didn’t he?” I asked her.
I watch her turn the stove off and move the pot over to a different burner. She faces me and let’s out a sigh. She walks over to the table, ” Yes, he told me to talk to you about it. He thought maybe if I give you a little push. It would help move things along.” She says in a low tone.
I laugh, ” He is unbelievable! Did he threaten you into doing this?” I ask her.
I watch as she hesitates before answering, ” Noo??” She says more in a question than an answer.
I raise my brow and look at her confused. I turn around in my seat to see Dimitri by the door and watch him quickly put his hands down.
He must have been hand signaling Mary on what to say next.
” Seriously!” I snap at him.
” I didn’t threaten her.” Dimitri blurts out.
” You clearly did! You always blurt out information when you are clearly in the wrong.” I tell him.
” It wasn’t a threat. It was more of a suggestion.” He suddenly tells me.
” What was this so called suggestion?” I question him.
” You aren’t going to let this go are you?” He questioned me.
” Nope.” I say popping N as I speak.
” Fine! I told her to talk to you, or sleep outside in a dog cage.” He finally tells me.
” I knew it!” I say standing up causing my chair to slide back as I do. ” You threatened her!”
” It was a suggestion not a threat.” He tells me.
He knows very well that he threatened her.
Hearing someone clear their throat. I turn to see it is Mary that is making that sound. ” Lunch is ready.” She tells us as she stands there awkwardly.
” Good timing, because Sadie has been saying for the past ten minutes that she is hungry.” Dimitri says.
” Well, where is she? I don’t see her next to you?” I say with a hint of attitude in my voice.
” She is building a sand castle with Liam. I suggest you loose the attitude.” He tell me.
I across my arms over my chest, ” What if I don’t want too?”
I watch as Dimitri smirks at me and takes strong intimidating steps towards me. Once he gets close enough. He grabs ahold of my upper arm and drags me out of the kitchen.
” Dimitri! Let go!” I snap trying to pull away.
I am actually pretty hungry and don’t feel like having this conversation on a empty stomach.
He drags me down the hall and into an empty room. He says as he shut and lock the door.
” I am not doing this right now! I am hungry and want to see my baby.” I tell him with a glare.
” Great, than this can be solved quickly. All you have to do is agree to go on a date with me, and to loose the attitude. ” He says leaning against the door frame and crossing his muscular arms over his chest. While giving me a cocky smirk.
“What if I say no?” I question him as I cross my arms over my chest as well.
” I guess we both won’t eat.” He says with a shrug of his shoulder.
He will withhold food from me!
Normally I won’t bite the bullet and not care, but I am starving!
I let out a frustrated groan and throw my hands into the air. ” Fine! I will go on a date with you! Now move so I can go eat!” I snap at him.
” Anddd?” He says wiggling his brow at me.
” I will be nicer.” I tell him calmly.
” Good! Now our date is a midnight.” He tells me cheerfully as he stands up straight and unlocks the door.
I am going to regret giving in so easily, but I am starving.
