Aiden frowned. He turned to look at Arwen, only to find her staring at Selene coldly.

Selene thought that her words had struck a nerve, so she pressed further, "If you are so confident in what you and Aiden share, there is no need to be afraid of me. Let me stay and prove how much you actually trust him.
As those smug words left her lips, Arwen stopped directly in front of her.
"What do you think? I —"
