Selena ordered a bowl of spicy noodles for herself and a hot tea. But,?her mate only ordered a bottle of mineral water and didn't order anything else, even though Selena had said that this ti it would be her treat. But apparently, he didn't heed it at all.
"Indeed a cold bottle of water is what you need right now," Selena said nonchalantly, actually she was quite happy because this man agreed to accompany her to eat.
Actually Xander wasn't doing this voluntarily, but this girl in front of him was crazy enough to put his motorcycle keys in her shirt pocket close to her chest.
Then she casually told Xander if he wanted he could take it himself.
Xander had stolen, beat people and even killed, but of course he wouldn't lower himself to molesting a woman. It wasn't in his life dictionary.
"My na is Selena, what's your na?" she asked as she stretched out her hand after she finished eating the noodles she ordered and took a sip of her tea.
Selena put away the empty bowl calmly and looked at Xander intently.
"At least tell your na," Selena said in a low voice, sulking.
"Give the keys to my motorbike," Xander said impatiently.
"Your na," Selena insisted at her own pace and when Xander closed his eyes, a mischievous smile blood on her lips. "I don't know what you are, but I think you should hold back your emotions."
Xander then opened his eyes and glared at Selena fiercely, but then the girl looked at his hands and her facial expression turned into one of panic.
"Your hand!" she cried, whisper-shouting at him.
Automatically, Xander turned to look at his hands. He thought that he was burning sothing again, but there was nothing to fret about, so he looked back at Selena, who was grinning.
"Your hands are so beautiful, I an," Selena said lightly, then leaned over and stared at Xander intently. "You look really tense."
Xander couldn't stand being around this girl anymore, he couldn't get used to seeing a smile on her lips or her deanor being so calm and carefree, like she had nothing to worry about.
Maybe there was nothing to worry about, because she was not the kind of person to burn people when she was upset or angry.
Therefore, Xander imdiately got up from his chair and walked away.
Seeing that, Selena let him be, because she knew Xander couldn't have gone far, as long as the keys to his motorbike were with her.
Selena sat there for about a minute, drinking her drink, then she left, but when Selena was about to pay for her food, the waitress there told her that Xander had paid for the food.
"Your boyfriend has already paid for it," the servant said.
Hearing the words 'your boyfriend', Selena's mood improved, she then smiled sweetly at her before leaving.
Outside, she found Xander sitting on his motorbike smoking a cigarette. Not many people were passing by in this area, or maybe it was because it was already late into the night.
"Where are my keys?" Xander said as he breathed out a thin puff of white smoke into the air.
"Your na." Selena is still stubborn.
Xander took a deep breath, before he finally said, "Xander."
"Lie."
Xander narrowed his eyes, as if Selena had just insulted him.
"So, your na is really Xander?" Selena then said the na again, feeling the way it rolled off of her lips. "Xander… Xander…. Beautiful na…."
"My keys." Xander didn't want to join Selena's creative imagination and make things warr between the two of them, because he had no intention of being around this girl.
Reluctantly, Selena handed over the keys to Xander's motorbike and imdiately jumped onto its pillion seat.
"What else now?" Xander frowned.
"Take ho…"
"Get down! I am not your personal chauffeur!"
===================
Sean often said that Selena always got what she wanted. His twin sister had her own way of getting what she wanted, by any thod.
Selena seed to have her own spell to make others submit to her wishes, a spell like a magician.
And it proved to be true.
When Xander emphatically said that he wasn't going to take Selena ho, he ended up breaking his own words and now he was in front of the girl's house.
"Thanks for driving ho," Selena said as she looked at Xander. "But, there's one more thing I'm curious about you."
Xander stared at Selena silently, as if to say; what else do you want to know?
"Are you a magician? You can get fire out of your hands." Selena raised her finger, stopping Xander from interrupting his sentence. "Don't dodge, I saw you light a cigarette with your fingertips smoldering. So, are you a magician?"
"No." Xander didn't understand why he was responding to Selena, maybe the sa reason why he agreed to take her ho. A reason he still didn't know.
"No?" Selena tilted her head. "Then what are you?"
It might also be because this was the first ti he had t another supernatural being who didn't imdiately consider him an enemy. Because most of them would see it as a threat if he stumbled into their territory.
"I don't know," Xander answered honestly. "I can control fire."
"So you're a firebender?"
Those blue eyes flashed with enthusiasm again and maybe it was because of those beautiful eyes that stared at him without judgnt, that Xander felt a little comfortable around her.
"I don't know what my kind are called." Then there was silence between them, while Selena seed to be in thought. "Are you a shifter?" Xander asked. This ti it was his turn to ask.
"Yes, I'm a lycan," Selena replied proudly.
Xander nodded slowly. Lycan… a powerful shifter…
"Then why are you following around?" Xander asked, he could see Selena's face imdiately turned red.
"That… hmm…" she looked shy and hesitant when she was about to finally say it. "This is sothing related to shifters…" She didn't know where to start. "You know, that every shifter has a mate…"
Xander's brow furrowed, but saw how Selena's deanor turned shy and rembered the sensation he felt when they touched. Xander had to admit that he liked the sensation.
"Oh, no…" he mumbled. "Don't say that..."
"You're my mate," Selena said, finishing Xander's sentence.
Xander's eyes narrowed when he heard that. "Impossible," he hissed.
"Of course it's possible," Selena replied firmly. "You are my mate."
"This is crazy…" Xander whispered.
"Of course not, it's amazing!" exclaid Selena excitedly.
Xander shook his head again.
"So, since you're not a shifter, may I mark you now?"
