It's not easy to be a woman in the wild

Xavier answering his aunt "I'm alright and the tribe trading continues as usual.." He then glanced at the tribe chief's quarter behind them "Have you visited Xander?" His gaze was on his aunt and switched to Keira, wondering why they came together.

"Yes, his body is detoxifying, Keira just saw him wake up" Aunt Emma replied with relief. Her answer made Xavier reveal a dazzling smile But when he heard that Keira was the one who saw his brother, he began suspicious "Keira was with Xander?"

"Yes, there's no one who is free in the tribe and I need to rest, So I asked Keira to help me take care of Xander"

It was true that the deer tribe was very tied up with their trade. Finding someone who can take care of the patient in the tribe was quite demanding. Fortunately, there was his aunt who can spare the time from managing the inn and can take care of Xander.

Xavier nodded "..Thank you" He said shortly with a calm expression. But because of his thick eyebrows, If didn't look intently the viewer would have thought he was making an angry face.

"It's alright" Keira replied, and turned to talk with Emma "Aunt Emma, ​​you must have something to discuss with your nephew. I'll walk back to the inn myself" Keira bowed slightly.

"Hey" The sound of a male following her while she was about to push the door, forcing her to turn around at the presence of him and found that Xavier was standing so close that Keira had to back away.

Raising her eyebrows "what is it?"

"Come with me" he swept her up in to his arms.

"What! where are you taking me?!" She struggled and smashed his chest but it seemed to make him sprint even faster.

"I want to bring you somewhere so please stay still"

"Hey! If you don't let me down, don't say I didn't warn you" That was a warning but Xavier hasn't put her down.

That made Keira use her elbow to punch his arm and slip out of his grip.

Xavier was surprised and looked at her in astonishment. This female was like a cat who had just scratched him with her claws.

He chuckled low, "Okay, I'm giving up" He back down and spread his arms "Hit me if you want"

Keira was silent, stood there in daze as to what had happened to this male 'Is he sane?'

The smell of flowers touching her nose invited her to glance at the surrounding.

They were now standing in a large field full of flowers that were swaying by the wind, giving the surrounding air a fresh floral fragrance 'So he picked me here to impress me huh?'

She turned her gaze at the male with wavy brownish desert hair that swayed softly in the breeze who still standing there while spreading his arms showing his muscled chest.

Keira wasn't interested by that, she took her eyes off him and turned around to watch this amazing view of the flowers field instead. Somehow, the male behind her was insane but the flowers here were very beautiful and much more interesting.

.

She squatted down to pick the flower, wanting to bring it back home with her.

Xavier sat down silently next to Keira, watching her pick the flowers with admiration.

"Do you like it?" He moved his face closer.

Keira didn't want to answer, she still mad that he brought her here without her permission.

She standing up but was stopped by his hand "You don't like it?" he asked.

The amethyst eyes gazed at him incredulously 'Why is this guy keep messing with me'

"Yes, I like it alright? Now take me back" She lightly patted her skirt, raising her arms to his neck to let him pick her up. Since she didn't know the way and for the sake of going back to the tribe, she should stick with him.

Xavier smiled in the corner of his mouth, after seeing how she wrapped her arms around him so casually. No doubt, This female knows how to use her charm to make people surrender. He then gently picked her up.

Along the way, Keira was thinking about Arel. She was tired of being thrown around and just wanted to return to the mystic forest to live a normal life with him.

.

They arrived at the inn in the evening. Xavier slowly put Keira down. she was about to walk inside the inn but was stopped by his arms gripping on her waist.

Sighing tiredly since she knew his intention "I'm a married woman and I love my husband So don't bother yourself" and removing his hand from her.

Xavier didn't understand the words but he knew that she was referring to her mate. But what's unusual for him to be with her? when she only had one mate. Maybe today she doesn't like him But he will not reduce the effort of making her fall in love with him.

"You should stop" Arel's cold voice made the listeners feel a chill run down their spines.

she let out a sigh of relief and jumped up hugging him "I miss you.." She kissed him on the cheek and glanced up and down at Xavier, signaling him to hurry up and go away.

Arel dropped the bag of herbs and give Keira a long deep kiss. He missed her so much even though he didn't see her for just half a day. Though Keira was slightly startled that he kissed her in front of Xavier she didn't resist.

Xavier gritted his teeth at the sight and then retreated, didn't want to look at them further

Arel ignored him and picked up the herbs bag and led Keira back to their room.

.

He put her down on the chair "Are you hungry?" he was pleased after hearing how she told other males that she loved him.

Keira looked at him with pleading eyes "Yes I'm very hungry.. Come sit, I'm going to cook for you today" Though she said that but Arel didn't sit at all. he came to help make the fire and help her wash the vegetables.
