ADRIAN
"I'm not going to kill you," I muttered, standing up on my feet.
She widened her eyes incredulously, wondering why I wasn't going to kill her, when she was a fucking liability.
I hated the way she looked at me as if I was the Grim fucking Reaper...
But I needed to stop my feelings from getting in the way of business.
So I was going to speak to her on a business level only.
Ignoring any chemistry we may have had back in the bar earlier.
"If you're not going to kill me..." she swallowed. "Then what the fuck are you going to do to me?"
I could visibly see the hurt and heartbreak on her face.
She stared at me with such a betrayed expression...
As if she believed that I was going to fucking rape her or something.
That was fucked-up...
And it really rubbed me the wrong way.
I may have been many things.
A dickhead...
A fucking prick.
But I wasn't a fucking rapist.
In fact, I brought a lot of rapists off the fucking streets.
Killing them...
Burying them six feet under where they belonged.
