"Checking me out?" he asks smirking. I narrow my eyes.
"In your dreams," he chuckles. I clear my throat. "Tomorrow morning be at the stables by eight," I say, he nods at me. "Breakfast after training at about nine fifteen." I continue sounding cold.
"Princess I can't help but notice your voice is a little soar. Want a cup of coffee?" he asks with a smirk on his face. I clench my fist and my jaw tightens.
"If there's one thing you should know about me, it's do not ever try and flirt with me," I say flatly. He chuckles.
"You'll come to me soon enough," he says, arrogance dripping in his voice. I glare at him.
"You don't want to get on my bad side," I warn.
"I get the feeling I already am,"
"That's too bad because I'm not a nice teacher in general and when I'm teaching people I don't like I can be pretty nasty,"
"Well, I always liked badass." He smirks and closes the door on my face.
