Are you perhaps jealous?

Suddenly they heard "You guys are eating without me"?

Both mother and daughter pair turned to see who was speaking and Alena was shocked to see Damon standing at the entrance and before she could say anything her mother-in-law spoke "Weren't you suppose to be in the meeting with your clients"?

Damon replied by asking "What clients"? His mother replied "Alena said you were busy and would be busy whole night with your clients". Damon smirked and looked at Alena with curiosity and asked "Which clients, honey"?

Alena gulped and said "Umm...the client, who came in the afternoon, you said you would be busy with he.....him the whole night and you will go to his place so i thought you were going to be busy".

Damon chuckled and went to Alena, held her hand and said "No honey, how can i miss our dinner. Come on lets eat with mother".

Alena nodded and they went for dinner. After dinner, Alena insisted on spending sometime with her mother-in-law and Damon knew very well why she was acting like this but he couldn't help and chuckle at her reaction. He went to the bedroom so that he can wait for this lioness.

After spending almost an hour Alena went to their bedroom and saw lights were already off, she thought Damon must be sleeping. She sighed in relief and locked the door but, before she could turn, she felt someone's warm breathe on her head. Damon said while standing tall behind her head "I thought you would never return to our bedroom, honey".

Alena turned and pushed him to create some distance between them and dodged the question by asking him "Why did you return"?

Damon was at a loss, he asked in reply "And where do you think i should have gone"?

Alena was getting furious she thought "This man has the audacity to flirt before his wife, and now he is behaving like a loyal man who returns directly home after work". She said "Do you have like some kind of memory problem or what, you were busy flirting with that makeup loaded woman and now you are acting like a loyal husband".

Damon chuckled and asked "Are you perhaps jealous, honey"?

Alena couldn't hole her anger anymore and burst out "Do you even know what you are saying, don't forget this is just a contact marriage once your mother gets better, i will leave and one more thing even though its just a contractual marriage i am still abiding by all the responsibilities unlike someone spending my night with different women and flirting all day. I am here just for my mother if not, i would have left long time ago".

Alena turned on the lights took out her clothes form the cupboard and went inside the bathroom. Damon stood frozen at the same spot, it took him a while to process all those things that Alena said. He couldn't believe what he just heard, he has never once betrayed her and all those stuff were just a show to get a reaction from her but still he was the one in the wrong in every situation according to her. He slammed the door shut and went to his study.
