Chapter 42 Apology?

MAIA'S POV

"Excuse me?" I asked while being completely offended and disgusted by what this asshole just said.

"I said I would love to see you in them," he repeated.

"You are a very cocky, and disrespectful person," I yelled immediately after closing my drawing pad.

"What is so disrespectful about that? I simply stated the facts. Besides, wouldn't you want to flaunt that asset of yours?" he asked while observing me from head to toe.

I had enough of his cocky attitude and the remarks he made about my body. I slapped him across his face and lowly growled at him.

"I don't care who you are, but you messed with the wrong person." I sneered at him.

Everything happened so fast that I was able to hear him grunt after I slapped him, then the next moment I was already being pinned on the wall by his force.

I snarled at him as I thrashed myself around and tried to escape from his tightened grip.

"Let go of me, you pervert!" I spat loudly while trying to get out of his grip.

He shook his head and smirked at me.

"Not so fast, hot chick." He snickered.

I tried kicking him with my legs, but his grip on them was too tight, even if it was with just one hand, I wasn't able to get out of his hold.

He put his face an inch closer to my face, and I averted my gaze the other way, leaving my neck exposed to him. All of a sudden, he sniffed my neck, and I shuddered as the chills ran down my spine. It wasn't the same feelings and sensations I used to get when Lucius was this close to me. It was the kind of chills that were scary and nasty.

"There is something off about your scent, but I just can't put my finger on it. Your scent is so enticing, though. I love girls who play hard to get. It gives me so much excitement." he mumbled but I heard me.

"Let go of me," I snapped and pushed him, trying to get my hand free from his grip.

"Why don't we have a little fun, huh?" he asked, blowing his hot breath over my neck.

Before I even had the chance to fight again, the door opened and I have never been so thankful.

"Help!" I screamed so the person could hear and try to get me out of this fucked up situation.

A few seconds later, I saw Nana arrive with a rod in her hand.

"Stay away from her, you nasty mutt!" Nana yelled at him and hit him with the rod.

He immediately let go of me as he tried to protect himself from getting hit by Nana.

"Ow! Ow! Ow! Stop it, Nana! It hurts." he said while covering himself with his hands.

'Nana? Nana knows him?' I asked myself, bewildered by this sudden revelation.

"How many times have I told you to stop being so rude and picking on these young ladies? but you never listen, huh? Do you want me to castrate you? You dickless, moron!" Nana scolded him while hitting him with the rod.

Only then did I realize that it wasn't any kind of rod. It was a silver rod and silver can be fatal to werewolves.

"Are you okay, dear? Did he hurt you? Tell me." Nana approached and was concerned while checking for any wounds and bruises.

"Who is he, Nana?" I asked her while keeping my eyes trained on him. He was tending to his now healing wounds from the silver rod.

"Yes, I know him. Unfortunately, he is my grandson," Nana answered with disappointment lingering in her eyes.

I was flabbergasted when Nana revealed that this moron is no one but her grandson.

"Come here and apologize to her! How dare you treat a lady like that? You act like I did not teach you any better." Nana scolded him.

"Nana? I was just trying to have some fun. I couldn't help it. Her beauty shines so bright that it attracts me." he replied, acting all cocky again.

"Enough, Elias! Apologize to her, right now before I lock you up in the attic." Nana exclaimed while glaring daggers at him.

"Relax, Nana. I had no intention of doing anything wrong to her. I just wanted to have a bit of fun. It's not like I don't know any better. I am sorry, Nana." He explained his reasons and apologized to Nana.

A bit of fun? my ass! What a pervert? I thought about this.

'Let me snap his neck right now, Maia. I will show this pervert what he will get for messing with us.' Avi sneered.

"I asked you to apologize to her, you fool!" Nana yelled, hitting him again with the silver rod in his arms.

"Ow! Ow! Enough already, Nana. You are burning my beautiful skin." He replied and tried to hide his arms behind his back.

I scoffed at his plea and looked out the window. Before he even had the chance to say something to me, I excused myself and left the room.

"I need to take a shower, Nana. I have to scrub his nasty scent off of me." I stated clearly while passing by his side.

"Okay, dear! Why don't you take the rest of the day off as well? You need some good rest."

Nana suggested it to me.

I went straight to my room and took a long hot bath, scrubbing my body with a sugar scrub to remove his scent on me. My body was almost red by the time I stopped scrubbing. I used a nice moisturizer to smooth out my reddened skin.

After a long bath, I decided to take a stroll downtown. I grabbed my hoodie and put it over my head to help keep my identity hidden. I can never be too safe, especially with Uriah out on the loose. When I was in the castle, I was safe from Uriah, but being out here, especially in the human world, there is no guarantee when he'll attack. He must be looking for me everywhere.

As I walked down by the park, I watched some kids running around and playing with each other... Every time I see kids, it makes me yearn for one. If it wasn't because of Uriah, my baby would have still been alive and playing in my arms. I sighed and shook my head.

Then I sat on a vacant bench and watched the kids play in the park. After a couple of minutes, I stood up and went back home.

I found Elias leaning by the door when I arrived. If only there was another way to get inside the house, I would have used it.

I could feel his eyes on me as I approached the door.

"Look, Maia! I wanted to apologize earlier. To be honest, I'm not really like that kind of person. It was my wolf who just happened to be hornier than ever and seeing you earlier, it did turn me on as much as my wolf." he gave me his reasons for acting all cocky.

I ignored him and his phoney ass, and I was about to open the door when he held my hand.

"Don't touch me!" I hissed at him.

"Maia! Can you at least talk to me? I already apologized. What more do you want from me?" he asked as he was proud to apologize after faulting that act.

I turned around and faced him. I glared at his daggers and flared my nostrils.

"Since you have asked me what I want from you, let me tell you clearly that I want you to be gone. I don't want to see your face ever again. I have faced enough humiliation and being toyed by guys like you. Now, please! Excuse me." I yelled at him and made my way inside the house.

"I am sorry! Alright, just give me a chance, will you? Please?" He begged on his knees and I don't care anymore.

I pushed his hand away from the door and glared at him dangerously.

"What else do you want me to do, Maia? I already apologized. Wasn't that enough?" he was complaining.

"You call that apologizing? You just played the victim card by making silly excuses for your actions. Once you are already man enough to own up to your mistakes, then come talk to me. I don't talk to egoistic assholes." I spat, taking the chance to open the door and get

inside.

As soon as I arrived inside my room, I locked the door immediately and stared at the door for the next fifteen minutes. I evened my breath as I sat on my bed. My head was aching with all the stress I was dealing with.

'He calls that an apology? Who does he think that he would fall on my knees and apologize for his mistakes? Ugh! So much pride and ego! If he wasn't Nana's grandson, I would have already snapped his neck.' I complained in my head.
