He remained quiet as he observed my face. I noticed he was staring at my lips which I was busily biting in apprehension and then he moved his hand towards my lips gently tugging my lips away from my teeth. "I can bite better," he whispered. The statement was so random but it made me smile a little because it was so out of nowhere. The smile quickly disappeared when he started to lean into me. He stopped when our lips were almost touching, our breaths mixing together, but he didn't kiss me. My breathing was so rapid and my heart was thrashing in my chest. The bigger part of me wanted him to kiss me, *What a birthday it would be to just know what a kiss felt like*, but I also didn't want him to because... The bathroom door suddenly opened and someone walked in, "Noah," the voice was sultry. I snapped out of my momentary stupidity when I saw the girl in a towel. I didn't even realize it but I pushed him away and took a step back. I barely glimpsed at the frown on his face before turning to leave. He grabbed my arm and turned me away from the door, "Who said you could leave?" his voice was hard. "I- I want-" The remaining words went back down my throat as I noticed how mad he looked. "Get dressed and leave," he said to the girl, his gaze still pinned on me. "But I-" she started. "Leave, now!" he yelled. She didn't waste any time gathering her belongings and scampering out of the bedroom, leaving me to face his wrath. ******* Highest Rankings #1 Syndicate #3 Forced #4 Bwwm

"You don't get to choose freedom after I've chosen you." Love was never part of the plan. Neither was consent. For Mikolaj Kuznetsov, control is currency. Power is inherited, enforced, and protected at all costs. What he takes, he keeps. What belongs to him does not leave. Malayia was never meant to be seen only contained. Taken from her life and locked inside an estate built on silence and money, she becomes a possession disguised as a privilege. Dressed, fed, watched. Paraded through luxury that feels more like a cage than comfort. Everyone assumes she'll break quietly. They're wrong. Malayia doesn't submit easily. She doesn't soften on command. Every smile is forced. Every moment of calm is borrowed. And the more Mikolaj tries to mold her into something obedient, the more she reminds him that obedience was never promised. What begins as control curdles into fixation. What should have stayed transactional becomes personal. Because Malayia is not fragile. She is not grateful. And she is not blind to the blood on his hands. In a world ruled by men who mistake ownership for devotion, the line between protection and possession blurs beyond recognition. And when power, violence, and desire collide, survival isn't about escape anymore. It's about who bends first. And who burns everything down trying not to.
