Mellisa didn't know whether to move closer to him , she was afraid he was on her step fathers side and would try to trick her.

"Y-you shouldn't be here , youl get caught whoever you are " she says

Jace looked at her so fragile , so scared "I know the Lord here my dear I wouldn't worry too much" he says as he put his dagger away. Mel watched while doing so. "You must be his daughter ?" He asks

"Step.. and most regrettably so" she says
"How long have you lived this way ?" Jace asked

"About .. 3 years , my mom past them and ever since this has been my life. "I sound so desperate in which I am , but I'd be so so grateful if you could help me" she says as she came closer to the gate and looked up at the guy. "What is your name ?" She asked

"My names jace and I will do everything in my power to help you leave this place" he says

Mellisa leaned against the rails on the gate "Mellisa , her tears rolled down her cheeks and she held his hand that mostly covered in a black glove wipe her tear away. "I promise you I will find away to get you out of here mel.. can I call you mel?" He asked with a soft smile as she looked in her eyes.

She nods "B-but how long will it take you?" She asked

"I'll be back this evening " he says before standing up.

"Wait.. " she says and took out a key from her shoe  and have it to him . "It's a key to the main door of the house " she says as he took it from her. "I will not let you down" he says before kissing her hand politely and left.

Soon Mellisa rushed back into the house and back up into her room as if nothing had happened. She just hoped and prayed it would all work out as planned.
