Helanie:
"No, Helanie, it's fine. I don't want to misplace you," Jessica said, making me secretly glance at Norman, who was glaring at me with his fists clenched.
"No, Jessica, it's fine. I can come back to my room tomorrow. Actually, it's quite late and I don't want you to go through the trouble of walking to the other wing. I'll just stay in any other room," I stated, almost too afraid of Norman's eyes.
"Yeah, it's okay, Jessica. You should stay." And then Norman spoke up. His tone was so harsh that Jessica looked terrified of him.
"No, Norman, I did not want to stay here. I swear," she began to stutter in so much fear that even I was shocked.
I wanted to step in and let her know it was fine, she could go and sleep anywhere. But at this point, I guess I had pissed Norman off so much that he was retaliating.
"No, please, you are going to stay here. You are my marked mate now. And you know what—" Then he turned to look at me while still speaking to Jessica.
