Chapter 471 - STOP SEEING HIM

Serefina stared at Hope with dull eyes while Kace tilted his head, didn't quite understand what Hope was trying to say.

"Are you… together?" Hope stuttered to finish her words.

"WHAT?!" Serefina barked in disbelieve as disgusted expression crossed her face and she stood up.

Hope jerked away when she heard her angry tone. Ups! Misspoke… "No, no… I am just… what I meant, you good together. It is rare to see you are getting along well…"

Hope raised her hands when a pillow, magically, was thrown toward her direction. However, before the pillow could hit her, Kace had sped up and swatted it away.

"Hei! Don't get physical with my mate!" Kace bellowed and hid Hope behind his back.

"Get out! Before I throw you out from this house!" Serefina flared up. She disliked the thing that Hope tried to imply. Get along with Kace?! Huh! He just brought trouble for her!

"Go, go, go…!" Kace pushed Hope out of the room before the door slammed shut right behind his back.

Both of them were startled and covered their ears as the sound of it reverberated through the house.

"Lana said she is going now because she has to stop in another place!" Hope shouted to the close door and received a bumping sound as a reply, it seemed Serefina threw the pillow against the door again. "Why she is so upset?" Hope muttered sullenly. "I am just saying…"

However, Kace knocked her head softly. "You silly girl. What is inside your dirty little head."

"Hei! I don't try to imply anything, I was just saying what I saw." Hope protested and both of them walked along the corridor toward the living room.

Apparently, Hope didn't see the wounds on Kace's back when she entered the room.

"Never in million lives your silly thought would happen." Kace chuckled, he had never imagined to be together with Serefina, the idea alone was absurd.

Hope pouted her lips sullenly as she sat down beside Kace and turned on the television, searching for interesting program to watch.

Meanwhile, Kace had found the most interesting thing to see. The girl beside him, who was oblivious with the way he looked at her.

"Why are you dating that boy?" Kace played with the tip of Hope's black hair. It has gotten longer since the last time he met her.

Not only that, everything about her was change, in good way. The live in her black eyes, her fierce personality… she has also become taller and her body shaped beautifully.

Hope was no longer the child who would call him 'wolf' or ran around with her diapers. Kace loved those memories of her when she was only a little girl, though he wasn't around very often.

However, he loved her more now.

"Why? I don't have a boyfriend, why I can't get one?" Hope crossed her arms defensively. Kace could see that she was nervous, her thumping heart told him everything.

"How about me?" Kace leaned his back against armrest and stared at her lazily. "Didn't I tell you that you are mine?"

Hope gritted her teeth, praying that her face didn't turn red because of Kace's bold statement. She was still mad because he didn't call her for three years!

"I am not your possession!" Hope snapped, managed to sound angry. "What do you expect? You don't even call me."

"Are you upset because I didn't give you any news?" Kace tilted her head, observing her reaction.

"No, whatever. You can do everything that you want. I don't care." Hope huffed and focused her attention on the television. Well, she was trying… it was hard to concentrate at something when a hot guy beside you was staring intently, as if he wanted to eat you whole.

"If I say sorry, will you forgive me?" Kace asked again after a long silence.

"No." Hope said curtly, but she liked it when Kace coaxed her.

"What should I do to make it up to you?" Kace tucked stray of her hair behind her ear and he could see her hard expression softened. "I came when you were sick. You know that right? So, you can't count it as three years straight."

"You came?" Hope whipped her head and looked at Kace with wide eyes.

"Do you forget about that?" Kace feigned sad expression, but Hope slapped his shoulder and glared at him, already knew his façade. "Of course I came. You were sick after all." He chuckled and tousled her hair.

"I thought it was a dream." Hope mumbled as she fixed her hair.

"A dream? Did you think you were dreaming about prince charming?" Kace beamed with happiness. He had been waiting for the moment when he could tease her without being awkward.

"No. I thought I dream of meeting an evil wolf. It's literally a nightmare." Hope sneered and this made the certain Lycan threw his head back, laughing hard. "But, Lana said she didn't know if you come back."

"No, Lana didn't know, but Serefina did." Kace stopped laughing and grimaced. "She burned my fur with fireball."

This time it was Hope, who was laughing hard, she could imagine the two of them were fighting. Of course, she knew no one of them would really hurt each other, but imagining Kace's white beast was being chased by the witch and her fireball, was very interesting.

"What are you laughing for?" Kace frowned. "She almost burned me."

"Oh, please. She will not kill you." Hope rolled her eyes, still laughing and Kace loved to hear the sound of her voice.

"Back to the topic." Kace suddenly turned serious and Hope stopped laughing, peering at him warily. "From now on, stop seeing him."

Kace leaned over, so he was so close to her. Hope could see his irises, the beautiful shades of blue and silver.

"Of course I can't do that…" Hope felt muddleheaded as her voice turned hoarser. "He is very good to me."

"Do you like him?"

"Huh?"

"Did he kiss you?"
