“You’ve entirely ignored my question, Madelein.”
Wolfgang seemed unbothered by her outburst. In fact, he seemed to smirk that much more, chuckle that much louder. She was so easily riled up, and for what?
“Pet names or not, do you know how rude it is to ignore a man? I would’ve thought you had more manners, Darling.”
Cocking his head aside, the man chuckled again, tone just dripping sweetened sarcasm.
“Then again, such a sweet little thing like you running around hardened soldiers all day? It sure is a pity you’ve picked up their beastlike ways. Puts a knife right through my heart, Kitten.”
God, she wanted to punch that stupid shit-eating grin off his face. He knew perfectly well why she was on edge when he was around and it was not merely due to the fact that the man didn’t have a medical degree, and from that so carelessly tended to patients. It was the fact that he had drugged her and used her as his personal guinea pig for his sick experiments. The hairs on her neck rose the more he spewed those endearing pet names. Coming from his mouth they were coated in bile and arsenic, making her feel sick to her stomach.
Hands balled up into a tight fist, turning her knuckles white underneath the gloves, which protected her palms from her piercing nails. Her jaw was clenched, blue eyes stared daggers at the man. How DARED he show his face around here? How DARED he even speak to her like this!? Fucking bastard!
-”Shut up! You have some nerves even talking to me, especially after the way you treated me! Like! Like I’m a god damn toy you can just play with when you see fit! If there’s anyone here who can be qualified as beastlike, it’s you!”
Her words were dripping with venom. Her hand had already grabbed the bone saw, holding the handle tightly. Her fingers twitched. She could just imagine stabbing him, penetrating the soft flesh just under the chin and up through his palate and almost splitting his head in half. He deserved it! The day he had strapped her to that table he had deserved all the pain and anguish in the world!
"Now now, calm down there little firecracker. I've not done anything to you that was ungentlemanlike. Perhaps you're simply having a.... how should I put it? A bad week? Surely there are other factors that bring you to such extreme emotion."
He had noticed her grabbing her bonesaw. Quirking an eyebrow a blue gloved hand was placed at his hip, oh so causally brushing aside the coat to show the pistol tucked into his waistband.
"And you wouldn't want to cause a scene, would you? Especially on ceasefire Saturday? Surely not."
