"She’s my girlfriend and she is staying here with me. Don’t you think you are interrupting our conversation, Kace Wace? I suggest you leave immediately," Derek ordered, reaching out to grab Allison by the hand but Kace stopped him.


    Derek didn’t even wait for Kace to say anything and tried attacking him again. Heunched his fist forward as fast as he could, hoping it could kiss Kace’s fresh face so that he could finally be satisfied.


    But he ended up with the same result as earlier. Kace was able to dodge his attack.


    Unfortunately for Derek, Kace wasn’t as lenient this time. He mmed Derek against the wall with ease, then delivered a relentless series of punches to his left and right, causing blood to spurt from his nose, mouth, and any other vulnerable spot.


    Mr Williams tried to separate the both of them but Kace was too strong for him to do so. Allison and her mother didn’t bother to stop him either.


    Allison was quite confused when her mother stood still and didn’t try to stop the fight like Mr Williams was doing.


    When Kace was finally satisfied with the state Derek was in, he wiped his mouth clean and dragged Allison out of the living room without saying another word.


    Allison got into the car without him asking her to. She thought she was ready to face them, but it was obvious she wasn’t. If Kace hadn’t arrived, Derek would have beaten her up again.


    "Where are we going?" She asked Kace who hadn’t spoken a word since they left the front of her house. "I thought you’d already left, why did youe back?" She added.


    "I came back for you," Kace responded after a few beats.


    Allison felt her heart skip a beat at his response, so she looked away.


    "But where are we going?" She didn’t have ss the next day since it was the weekend. Selene was still recovering from her leg injury, so she had nowhere to go tomorrow, plus, it was alreadyte.


    "Somewhere you can rx. I’m sure you are already tired and ufortable in that house of yours. So, I’m taking you to my house to rx," he responded.


    Instantly, Allison snapped her head to look at him. She couldn’t be beating him right.


    ’He’s taking me to his house?’ She wondered.


    "What did you say?" She asked him, her eyes widened, and her jaws dropped as she waited for him to respond.


    "I’m taking you to my house to rx. And before you think of anything, I’m not interested in you," he reasoned out.


    Hearing him say he wasn’t interested in her made her heart ache, but she pushed the pain aside and red at him defiantly.


    "Why didn’t you tell me earlier you were taking me to your house? I don’t want to go to your house. Stop the car immediately!" She ordered.


    "Will you rx? I suppose you wouldn’t want to be alone with me because <i>you have a boyfriend," </i>Kace mimicked her tone whenever she reminded him she had a boyfriend, which made her cheeks flush in embarrassment. "Like I said, I’m not interested in you or anything."


    Kace stopped the car, and Allison realized they had arrived. She stared at the house in front of her—it wasn’t huge or tiny, just a modest, middle-sized home.


    She stepped out of the car, forcing herself to follow Kace.


    "Don’t you feel weird bringing a stranger to your house?" She asked Kace, who seemed to not mind at all.


    He turned to look at her, a grin on his lips. "You are not a stranger to me, Allison."


    She frowned, nervously gulping down her saliva.


    "What if I kill you in your sleep, or take all your money and run away?" She asked, her eyes narrowed. His kindness towards her that day was unusual and she wanted to know what was making him act so nicely to her.


    "You can try, but I won’t guarantee you will seed. You would already be caught before you can step out of this house," he answered. "Now, let’s go."


    Allison scowled at his back before she followed behind him.


    After spending some time thinking for himself, Kace decided to move out of the Wace mansion and live on his own. He didn’t have any servants so the house was eerily quiet.


    Kace gave Allison a room and offered her dinner. He invited her to y a game but she declined, not wanting to be in close contact with him. The next morning, she disappeared after sending Kace a text of appreciation.
