" I agree with her," Arnold nodded but didn't stop wondering about, how Lexa can be really harsh sometimes, but it amazed him more, as he felt like she didn't fear him.
Anatalia stared at both of them and gave in to their words. She sighed,
" Alright."
The trio were all now carrying shopping bags, and they were now about to leave, until something interrupted them.
" Get your shoes and dresses here at an affordable price!" A man with a tanned skin, wearing an eye patch, and having a deep chocolate hair, shouted, using a little microphone. He was trying to attract a lot of werewolves in the market, and luckily it worked as they all started surrounding him bit by bit, checking his wares out.
Lexa, Anatalia, and Arnold stopped in their tracks and turned to the man, who just announced his wares loudly.
" What is that?" Lexa's face was suddenly filled with curiosity and she turned to Anatalia, hoping to get an answer from her.
" Well, we call it a cheap shopping," Anatalia answered her and smiled, when she looked towards the shop where the man, who just shouted not too long, was.
" Huh?" Lexa was confused and wanted to ask what a cheap shopping was.
But Arnold beat her to it and cleared her curiosity.
" It just a shop where you can get different dress, shoes, accessories, hairpins etc at only a very low price," he explained with utmost seriousness.
" Oh, so that's it," Lexa curled her lips up. She was trilled to hear that and wanted to give it a try immediately, but she had no money with her. And the young girl just started working at the Alpha house, so she wouldn't be able to get her pay now.
Arnold saw Lexa's expression and smirked. He already noticed what the young girl wanted, but he thought it wouldn't be that proper to go for a cheap shopping, as it was only for impoverished werewolves in the community.
" I don't think it something that is interesting. The items there are too cheap, and they might not be of good quality. I can always take you to a better stall with better goods," Arnold suggested calmly, dipping one of his hands into the front pocket of his pant.
Anatalia looked taken aback by Arnold's word, but she was happy to hear his words and actually looked forward to that very day.
But Lexa didn't took his words well. She pulled her sword shaped brows together and shifted her gaze to the man beside her.
" I don't care what you think Prince Arnold, at least am not asking you to get me anything from the cheap shopping stall. And I would really like it if you stop letting us know how lowly we are."
The young teen hissed and folded her arms across her chest.
" Wait! What? I don't get what you are saying. I was only making a suggestion and that was it. What are you getting at?"
Arnold also frowned at what Lexa said and twisted his lips.
" Oh, a suggestion is it? Doesn't sound like it my Prince. Instead, it was more of you showing off how high you are," Lexa spat back and scoffed annoyingly.
She hated how the wealthy and powerful people acted sometimes.
" Lexa, don't forget he is a powerful Prince. Stop acting so rude, or I don't know what might happen to you," Anatalia moved closer to Lexa, and whispered worriedly. She was worried and scared for Lexa. It seems the young girl was really stubborn and didn't know her place.
" So? Just because he is the Prince doesn't mean he should be too blind to see his words previously wasn't pleasant!"
Lexa argued and shook her head. She tried to contain her voice, but it worked barely, and it showed how annoyed she was.
Though, there was no attention on them, but it didn't mean it won't be.
Anatalia tugged Lexa's dress, trying to bring some senses to the young girl, cause she thought Lexa was going overboard.
Arnold widened his mouth a bit and found it hard to close his lips. In his whole entire life, no one has ever dare to reprimand or argue with him like this, except only his father. He was a Prince, known to be powerful and intelligent. He led wars and conquered various of his dad's enemies. No one dared look at him and talked back to him like this. But this young girl in front of him did, and it astounded him.
" What? Cat got your tongue?"
Lexa rolled her eyes and huffed, when she saw how Arnold was quiet. To be honest, she was scared, but she wouldn't admit and believed she was right in all ways.
Anatalia, who was trying to stop Lexa from saying any words that could implicate her, stopped her action for a few seconds and sniggered at Arnold's expression.
The Prince was clearly embarrassed, but he didn't had it in mind to punish Lexa for being rude to him like that. Realising, it would be futile to argue with Lexa, he sighed and lifted his arms up, " Fine, you are right. Am sorry if my words offend you."
" They do," Lexa assured him immediately and rolled her eyes again.
" Please forgive her Prince Arnold. She is just still new and doesn't know much about the laws," Anatalia bowed her head a little and plead for Lexa to Arnold. She didn't know how she will react if words get spread to the Alpha, and he decided to punish Lexa for her untamed words.
The young teen saw how Anatalia was worried for her and facepalm herself, " You worry too much Ana."
Anatalia only stared disapprovingly at Lexa and shook her head. She really hoped Lexa won't implicate her someday.
" I was at fault, so I guess it normal for her to react back that way," Arnold composed himself and sessed to the female servant, but the embarrassment he felt was still evident.
" You guys can go check the store out, I will be here," Arnold added, which made Anatalia to feel stunned, while Lexa just shrugged.
The young girl pulled the female servant, before the latter whispered something to her, and she stopped.
Lexa turned back to where Arnold was and looked up at him, even though she was feeling awkward, " I don't have money for the cheap shopping."
Then, she looked sideways and tried to maintain her annoyed expression, but she could feel how her cheeks were turning red as a feeling of discomfit was beginning to overwhelm her.
