Say less

"Hey."

Abel reached for Aries's wrist, spinning her around before she enter the chambers. Her brows rose while he kept her wrist on the side.

"Is there something wrong?" she asked innocently. "Hmm?"

Aries excused herself after dinner to rest for a bit. Since she already spent some time with Abel and Dexter individually, she wanted to give those two a chance to talk about certain things. Thus, Abel walked her back to Abel's chambers lest "she would get lost."

"I also wonder, darling," replied Abel to her seemingly clueless inquiry. "Is there something wrong?"

"Aside from Maximus wanting to kill all of us, there shouldn't be any." She sported a subtle smile. "I'll wait for you here, Abel."

Abel assessed her smile, still holding her wrist in a slack manner. His lips parted before they shut again, smiling subtly instead. 

"Very well." He carefully released her wrist. "If that is what you say, then I'd assume there is no problem."
