" Ace?"
" Long time no see, sweetheart." Ace straightened once he was done gathering her things and held them to her. " How have you been?"
Navaya snatched her groceries bags out of his hands, glaring. " Why are you here?"
Resentment shot through Navaya as Ace stood in front of her, making sure he saw the clear rage scintillating in her eyes. A warning sign.
Get the fuck away from me or you lose an arm.
He saw the red lights oozing from her— her obvious threat— but he wasn't fazed.
" Same reason you are. It is a grocery store after all." He answered and Navaya rolled her eyes as she spun around, heading for her car.
Ace went after her. His approaching footsteps incited her to walk faster but he still caught up with her, grabbing hold of her arm to prevent her from taking a step further.
