My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift

Chapter 54

His demeanour changed and his eyes bulged when he finally noticed Roxanne's facial expression.

Her face exhibited pure anger and disgust. Her eyes burned with anger and her teeth were visible,

gritted against each other as her glare pierced his eyes.

“Get your hands off of me! Now!” She growled.

Everyone appeared confused by her sudden outburst, Rita most of all. Roxanne took steps back,

leaving the reach of Asher's arms, releasing herself from his grasp.

“Damnit Roxanne! What did I just tell you?” Rita screamed within herself, appalled by Roxanne's

unexpected display.

Asher appeared a bit stunned by Roxanne's behaviour, especially after she had looked so smitten

by him already. He definitely thought he had her already, but what happened?

“Who the hell do you think you are?” Roxanne said angrily.

Her disrespectful and angry tone made everyone there shocked. Rita looked very mortified by

Roxanne's attitude and covered her face with her hands, shaking it. Dax remained calm and stoic,

though he felt uncomfortable with her words. Asher felt nothing but shock by how she addressed him,

her sudden reaction toward him… He couldn’t comprehend it.

“Are you talking to me?” He asked her.

Her glare intensified as her eyes focused on only him, giving him the answer to his question.

“Disgusting! What right do you think you have to touch me by my shoulders? And what’s with that

smile on your face. I was right after all, you’re truly a dick, aren’t you?” Roxanne yelled in annoyance.

Her words began to affect Asher, making him angry at her treatment of him. He didn’t deserve any

of her words, yet she was talking to him so casually and insulting him to his face… Did she not know

who he was?

“Hey, look here…” He addressed her

“No, you look here! I heard he was that crazy monster that attacked me in my grandmother's

place! Do you have any idea how I felt? I listened to Rita and decided to give you a chance, but you

didn’t even apologise for your dangerous move and what you put me through. Yet, you can only smile

and put your hands on my shoulder like everything is cool! Well it’s not! I thought Dax told you already, I

want nothing to do with you! You disgust me, and I’m sick of this! I want to go back home!” Roxanne

said in protest.

Asher looked at her as she spoke with great anger and passion. Of course, he felt no guilt for what

he did, taking her away, but he felt something hot in his chest, and it pricked and burned him as she

spoke. Finally she stopped and huffed, catching her breath.

Asher appeared to be in deep thought, ruminating on the words she spoke. Finally, he looked at

her, as she started back defiantly. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Apologise… For what?” Asher asked with a frown on his face.

Roxanne was shocked to hear him say this. His face showed a slight hint of anger as well, like she

just did something uncalled for. His question rang in her brain, leaving her in a confused state.

“For what? Are you retarded?! You stalked me like some sort of creep, chased me till I passed out,

and even abducted me! You did all those things and you have the galls to ask me ‘for what'? You must

be sick!” She added.

These insults, coupled with her tone was too much for Asher to tolerate. However, he was

surprised by his reaction to her words. They pricked him and hurt him, though he didn’t know why. Yet,

despite her disrespectful action, which called for discipline and punishment, he didn’t feel any urge

within himself to do any of that to her. He just wanted her to stop!

“THAT IS ENOUGH!” He finally decreed.

His harsh and authoritative voice echoed throughout the mountain. He glared at Roxanne,

confused by her reaction and his as well. He didn’t like how he was feeling, he didn’t like it at all.

What was worse was that this wasn’t how he intended their meeting to unfold. He had planned out

his words and actions, but they all went into nothing when they started talking. Not knowing what to say

in his defence, he maintained eye contact with her, still glaring.

“This girl… What shall I do to you?” He questioned.
