ISABELLE POV

        

        The demon king, the alias that I gave to him, and I didn't utter any single words afterwards We stood at each other grounds, nevermind that we're in the middle of a traffic - it was a standstill. Silently, examining, contemplating each other moves like we're preparing for a battle - a battle of wills that neither me nor him wanted to lost. Therefore, our next move was crucial, whoever said something first would either be victorious or forever be humilated, so I really need to be careful and I would do anything to win this round. 

               I pondered of what words should I say, organized my argument and readied my defenses. I wasn't a Debate champion for nothing. I was so ready for him that I was stunned when he did something unexpected.

                 He turned and walked towards the car.

                I was shocked, jaw dropping shocked, that it made me speechless for a moment. Did he think that he can get away from this? No, I didn't think so. I wouldn't let this jerk escape from me because he needed to apologized of what he did to me. 

                "WAIT!" I didn't know if he heard me since he continued from walking or he completely ignoring me which made me more angrier than before. "HEY YOU STOP!"  but still he kept going and now I'm volcanic eruption furious. It's game on. "I SAID STOP YOU INSOLENT JERK!!!!!"  I yelled at the top of my lungs which I caught back his attention since he turned and appeared to be glowering but I really didnl't care.  

                    I wasn't afraid of him and I shown him that by walking towards him without breaking our eye contact. He was frowning when I reached him and gave me daggers look. 

                       "What do you want?" he groaned 

                        "You need to apologized to me" 

EDISON POV

               Apologized! Why did I need to do that? I was being patient with her, tried to control my anger because she was a woman. I might sound like I'm a sexist but I really didn't like to fight with a woman, afterall I'm a gentleman. I decided just to walk away, saving me from any troubles and it would be a waste of my time to argue with pointless things, plus I had many appointments in my schedule today and I would like to finish them so that I could take a rest since my migraine was killing me.

                I walked towards the car and she kept calling me but I just ignored her. I told myself "DON"T LISTEN! DON"T LISTEN!"  I repeated it in my head. However, she said something that I would never ever forgiven her. 

                "I SAID STOP YOU INSOLENT JERK!!!!!"  that made me stopped and the mantra that I kept on repeating myself disappeared. No more Mr. Nice Guy.

                This woman was really something plus she even had the nerve to called me a jerk. A JERK! Nobody would dare to insult me like she did. If she was in my country, I could send her to jail for harrassing a member of a very old aristrocrat family and I'd make sure she would stay there for long time that would show her whose the most powerful person among us. And now I would show her how ruthless I could be.
