Their relationship keeps swinging between healthy consensual dom/sub to emotional manipulation so fast. Silas keeps getting insecure feeling like he is not needed by Arthur and in doing so, he does things to hurt Arthur like saying that Arthur needs to obey his orders or he will get "another bitch".
His way of talking would've been fine and I would've seen it as regular dirty talk if Silas wasn't clearly feeling like Arthur might leave at any moment. There were many instances since the beginning where it felt like Silas wanted to hurt Arthur and make him leave because he expected him to leave kinda like a self fulfilling prophecy. But at the same time he is hoping that Arthur would endure his worst treatment because that would prove that he would never leave...I hope that Silas opens up soon because the sex scenes are great but something feels off all the time
