Loveproof Heart

Chapter 9

We stayed like that for a few minutes but my patience is limited. 

"OK, OK....OK. Let me go." I said while trying to push him off. He let go and I noticed that his eyes weren't even red or puffy. He didn't look like he had been crying for over five minutes. He hadn't been crying had he! 

"Ugh! You jerk!" I shouted at him. He looked pretty proud of himself. Fluffs, who had rolled himself up in a ball on the pillow, woke up and peeked at me through one eye then attempted, I repeat: attempted, to growl at me. Then fell back asleep.

"Get out, get out, GET OUT!" I screamed at him but thought better of it, I could get some answers from him if he stayed.

"No, wait. We need to talk." I said and a frown found it's way across my face. 

"What do you need to talk about." He immediately looked concerned. 

"When can I go back home...?" I asked.

"Any time." He said back. Seriously, I've been stuck in here for no reason and I could have just gone home. 

"Seriously?!" 

He nodded at me.

"Then I can go back home now?" 

"No."

"Why?"

"Because....Look, just at least stay for a week to convince you all wolves aren't bad." 

"What about my mum?"

"She knows you're here. In fact she agrees about the spending a whole week here." 

"No." I said and stood up. I glared down at him while he stayed sitting on the bed. "I'm going home right now."

I turned around but Chris grabbed my wrist to stop me and stood up. It was actually quiet scary because he was, what?, 6"2 whilst I was a measly 5"5. Compared to him I was a midget. And he looked really scary a glaring daggers into my eyes. He started walking towards me and I backed up. 

For every step he came towards me, I stepped back until I felt my back hit the wall. Oh, this is super.

He smiled at me and took a final closer step to me so our bodies were just brushing against each other. 

"You're not going anywhere."  He growled and put his face against my neck. 

"You said I could leave whenever I wanted...?" I said meekly. Like you could concentrate when some hot guy was this close to you and breathing against your neck. OK, I admit it. I am a really, really, tiny insignificant bit attracted to him...Honest.

"I was lying." He said back, and scraped his teeth along the left side of my neck. I shivered.

"So you were lying about my mum knowing I am here." 

"No. She knows you're here. She just never set a limit to how long I get to keep you for."

"I'm not some sort of object for you to own." I said my voice gaining strength. 

"Maybe, maybe not." He said and bit down on where my neck and shoulder met. He bit me! That stupid mutt bit me! Anger flared through me and I pushed him back roughly. 

"Why the f*** did you bite me?!" I screamed.

"Because you are mine." He said whilst staring at my neck whilst looking chuffed with himself. 

"I am not anybody. And definitely not yours." I said opening the door beside me and slipping inside the bathroom. And locked it. 

I stared ahead of me towards the blurred window. And to think I was JUST starting to like him, maybe a little bit. But now, no. Zilch, nothing, nada.
