Ariel stares at the person in front of her eyes in disbelief, as it has not even been a week and now there he is, the man himself, none other than her childhood protector Devilin, standing in the door of her new home.

"What are you doing here?" Ariel asks not knowing what else to say, as she was surprised.

"To take you back," he simply answers pushing her as he passes by to go inside the house.

"What are you talking about?" Ariel asks flustered at his behavior as she follows him inside her house.

"Your mate, he is psychotic" Devilin answers as he abruptly turns around to face her.

"Are you okay? What are you talking about?" she asks him once again confused.

"Pack, we are leaving," he answers instead with a sigh as his eyes roam around the house.

"Dev, you cannot just barge into my home and ask me to pack. I thought you agreed on letting me work this out" she speaks exasperated, not knowing what was wrong with him and what he was even doing here.

"I never agreed on anything, I just didn't want to make you upset and now that I know he isn't that great of a guy that you feel he is, I can do what I feel" he answers moving towards Eric's desk and checking out the things that were on his desk.

"You are making no sense. What exactly is it that you know about Eric that you have concluded that he is not right for me? If you don't know he is my mate," she asks him as well as reminding him of their relation.

"Exactly, what do you know about the guy anyway to take such a huge decision and please don't just say because he is your mate...

I don't even know why we are wasting our time arguing about this when we can be on the way back home," he asks her solemnly.

"I am not going anywhere with you" she stubbornly states folding her arms.

"What, are you...really, did you just said no to me?" Devilin asks her unbelievably.

"Yes, did you?" Eric asks teasingly as he enters the room to find both of them in a staring match.

"Ah, you, I thought as soon as I entered the door you would be showing yourself and what the hell...

Why is she opening the door? Do you know a murderer could have been on the other side of the door and you so easily made her open the door?

What kind of mate are you?" Devilin, fires away, as soon as he sees Eric.

"But, it was just you" Eric simply answers as he looks from Ariel to Devilin.

"Hey Air, just pack your bags I don't like seeing your mate's face. Hurry" Devilin orders exhausted, as he does not want to do this anymore.

"And, why would she pack in a hurry?" Eric asks as he raises his brow Ariel's way.

"I didn't call him, even I don't know what he is talking about" Ariel warns Eric seeing his gaze.

*******

Devilin sighs tiredly, as he finds both Eric and Ariel staring his way for answers. Even if he wants nothing but to punch Eric, for many reasons he does not wish to talk about, still he gives in and explains, the only reason is standing in front of him.

"Even if I don't want to do this, I have to. Ariel, the man whom you claim as your mate is a monster" Devilin states bored, at which Ariel gasps and Eric clenches his jaw tightly.

"Dev...."

"Hear me out first or better yet ask your mate. Either way you are leaving this place" Devilin finalizes as he pulls a chair and takes a seat.
