You Belong To Me

Chapter Realization

'I had no idea where I was going until I got there.'
~ the thoughts of a realization

Trey was so upset he couldn't think straight. Pure anger raged within him and his back was suddenly making the wall hot instead of the cool wood making his back chilled. He watched her avoid his eyes but instead focus on a tile on the bathroom floor with her eyebrows raised as though Ali had just made some monumental point in her own mind. He felt as though he had been slapped in the face.

He had half a mind to turn her loose. For a split second he vindictively thought about giving her the shitty little seventeen dollars and a set of ratty clothes and putting her out on the front step if that was what she claimed to want so desperately. He was a peer! He would someday rule a domain and there was no shortage of women that desired him for a lifetime. Furthermore if he was a no one, which he couldn't even fathom, he still wouldn't deserve to resorting to begging and bribing for the affections of some poor woman. Who was she to demand anything more from him than his attention? Who would really sit around and beg a nobody of a woman to love when and want to spend time with them? Who did Ali think she was? How far did she intend to get without him? Without work or support?

But his rage nearly evaporated to a small simmer when he realized she was his most prized possession. Even if she was something that didn't belong to him in the general sense her soul and body were his and only his. Trey couldn't turn her loose into the streets because he couldn't imagine spending a moment without knowing exactly where she was and what she was doing now that he had her back in his life. What would he do if she wasn't his, if she wasn't there with him? Who would ever make him feel as she had? Why didn't she want him?

He became surly and angry again.

"Found somewhere to go?"

"That's none of your business," she whispered.

"Figured you'd earned your freedom from me?"

"..."

He came up from the wall and was next to her in an instant. Trey grabbed her moisturized arm and pulled her to her feet. "You will never be free from me Ali." His nose was almost touching her and he was radiating heated fury that he could almost see. The determined set her of jaw did nothing to alleviate his senses. "You could walk through my front door tomorrow and you would still never be away from me!"

"I don't belong to you!"

"Like hell you don't!"

"I'm not your property!"

"You're mine! I don't give a damn what you say!"

She turned away from him in a huff of anger.

"I will never let you leave me," he murmured, aware of the monster he sounded like and not caring in the least. He spoke to her pacing figure. "I won't ever let you go."

"You got what you wanted!" she huffed with this incredulous look on her face. "I made sure that you..." Her cheeks pinkened. "That you enjoyed it. You even did it twice. What else is there?"

Trey gave a sick bark of laughter. "I'm glad you asked..." He advanced on her weary form and touched the back of her neck with his hand. He lifted her face to his. She kissed him without objection. Her hands clutched her towel to her front and Trey ripped the material away from her oily form and dropped it to the ground. All at once his member was stiff again and he was no doubt ready to be inside her. Her mouth opened underneath his and her fingers played at his chin as though she wanted to wrap her arms around him. Trey could feel her familiar motions of reservation and bore down on her mouth harder. He ripped his own towel away and hefted her up into his arms.
