Chapter 65 The tears finally began to spill down Claires cheeks .
She turned to look at me , like I was somehow the one responsible for all her problems .
I had the urge to snicker seeing her in this state but that would only make me seem evil .
There was always plenty of other times to gloat .
Without another word , she walked out of the room , her heels making a clanking sound against the floor .
I turned to Quentin , unable to hide the surprise in my eyes .
From the moment Quentin came into the room , Id expected him to take Claires side .
Shed basically attached herself to his hip back in school .
I wouldnt have been surprised if he had decided to take her side .
And for some reason , he hadnt .
Quentin was usually cold and had a detached aura to him but back in school , hed always been really gentle with Claire .
One of the fights wed had was all because of her .

When it came to Claire , he would never agree to see reason , always choosing to take her side .
Which is why I couldnt hide my surprise that hed sent her away so coldly .
Quentin raised an eyebrow at my silence .
You told her to leave? I stated the obvious .
He shrugged .
That was the instruction I gave her before .
I simply hummed , unsure of what to say next .
They had their own dynamic always have and I wasnt about to just butt into it .
Now that Claire had interrupted what wed been doing , I was no longer in the mood to go on with what wed been doing .
Quentin seemed resigned as well , slowly putting back a few of his buttons while leaving the first two open .
I have to get to work .
Quentin said , pulling back from me .
I nodded , watching as his eyes never left mine .
For someone that had a lot to do , he was being 09:36 Lunas Deadly Deception : How She Made fler Alpha 50.4 % Chapter 6 awfully clingy .
A small smirk found its way to my lips .
I crossed my legs , resting my weight on my arms as I stared at him .
His eyes slowly went down from my eyes to my lips and then down to my neck .
They lingered on my chest for a while before going down my waist to my crossed legs.
Seeing where his gaze was , I slowly uncrossed them , pretending to be oblivious to his stares .
Fuck .
The words were barely audible as they left his lips .
Well get to it then .
I said , a hint of arrogance in my voice as I watched him .
There was a pleading look in his eyes as he looked at me then at the desk .
All this documents were here and that was the place he usually worked .
Seeing that I wasnt going to budge anytime soon , he let out a sigh .
Grabbing the documents from beside me , he made his way back to the sofa and sank into it .
Grumbling under his breath , he began to go through the documents , his head bent in frustration .
A laugh left my lips as I watched him .
Quentins eyes raised up to meet mine , a helpless look I his eyes .
This is funny to you ? Are you entertained yet ? He asked , staring at me blankly .
Oh very amused .
I grinned , not bothering to hide my smile .
You still say that you wont let people go on calling you a princess .
Youre not different from before you were married .
I didnt bother with a retort , simply staring at him with an unamused look .
He held my gaze for a while before letting out a sigh and turning back to his work .
Eventually , we received a message from the pilot saying the plane had arrived at its destination .
I looked out of the window to see a couple of cars parked a little distance from the hanger .
As soon as the plane landed , I wasted no time at all and got off .
From a distance , I could make out the familiar figure of a royal prince .

When Quentin followed behind me , a bright idea popped into my head .
What better way to get back at Quentin than a good prank ? As we got closer to Askhan , I made sure my face was down , my shoulders sagged like I was trying to make myself small .
Thea ? Quentin sounded worried as he watched me .
I didnt bother with a reply , simply focused on making my way to Askhan .
The royal prince had a look of confusion in his eyes as he stopped before me .
Thea , whats wrong ? He asked , his gaze fixed on me for a while before turning to Quentin .
What did you do ? Quentin simply narrowed his eyes on Askhan , not bothering with a reply .
I looked up at Askhan , my eyes glistening with unshed tears .
He seemed momentarily stunned by my tears before a hard look washed over his face .
He turned to glare at Quentin .
What did you say to her ? I know you must have had a hand in this .
Askhan accused .
Bold of you to assume that .
Quentin replied coldly .
Both of the men glared at each other , none of them willing to back away or falter where they stood .
