Chapter 102:
Makenna’s POV:
The dreadful encounter was mercifully brief. After it ended, Dominic rose lazily. His lack of interest in continuing was apparent.
My teeth clenched tight, fury coursing through me.
Dominic, so composed and dressed, looked at me and asked nonchalantly, “Why the glare? Did you think I would let you go easily if we weren’t outdoors?”
I couldn’t do anything to him, so I put on my clothes.
Shameless bastard!
Infuriated, I tried to get out of the car, only for Dominic to force me back into the seat.
“Sit down. I’ll give you a ride,” he said, his tone leaving no room for refusal.
But I insisted, “No need, I can get home by myself.”
The last thing I wanted was to share any more moments with this vile person who used threats to get his way.
I struggled to open the car door, only to find he had locked it. My frustration grew as I glared at him.
“What the hell… Argh!”
Before I could finish my sentence, Dominic floored the accelerator. The car roared away. The sudden motion threw me backward, and the back of my head slammed against the seat. I hissed in pain.
“Silly girl.” Instead of feeling sorry, Dominic showed no remorse for his actions.
Unconvinced, I held my head and glared at him defiantly.
“You did that intentionally. Stop the car! Let me out! Alice is still waiting for me.”
She’d surely be anxious if I didn’t return soon.
A mocking smile flickered in Dominic’s eyes. “I can’t believe how naïve you are. Didn’t you see how Kristina acted earlier? She won’t just let you go. Do you really want to face her wrath? That’s her territory. You’ll never stand a chance against her.”

“Her territory…” I mulled over Dominic’s words. It seemed the red-light district was indeed connected to the Harrison family.
But then, what would happen to Alice and Lily if I left them there? Would Kristina unleash her fury on them if she couldn’t find me?
I was worried. Dominic glanced at me and read my mind.
He drawled, “Stop overthinking. I’ve already sent my men to protect your friends.”
His assurance that Kristina wouldn’t transfer her aggression onto them brought me a little comfort.
I stared at Dominic with mixed feelings. Anyway, he had saved me from a dire situation, though he was still a bastard.
I said awkwardly, “And for today… thank you…”
Dominic’s response came with a casual smirk. “Don’t mention it. If you really want to thank me, why not hone your skills in bed? That way, I can have more fun in the future.”
“You!” I glared at him and wanted to curse him. However, I couldn’t find the words to express my outrage. My cheeks blushed.
I didn’t expect him to be so thick-skinned. He spoke of such matters with unnerving ease.
The car was still tainted with the lingering scent of sex. I turned away, looking out the window, trying to focus on the passing scenery to ignore him.
Shortly after, the car entered the palace and made its way to my house. Then it stopped in front of my villa.
“We have arrived,” Dominic announced.
I was so eager to push the door open and leave. However, he grabbed my wrist.
I turned around in confusion. Clayton reached out, wrapped an arm around my waist, and pulled me close. Before I could react, he pressed his lips against mine.
Hmm…
It was a deep, forceful kiss. I struggled against him, hit his shoulders, and pushed him away. I placed my hand over my mouth and glared at Dominic.
Dominic laughed mockingly. “Don’t you want to go? Or would you like another kiss?”
Fuming, I jumped out of the car and wiped my lips, cursing him silently as I stormed away.
However, as I turned around with anger etched on my face, I caught sight of a familiar figure standing there.
It was Clayton.
