Is that so?" Alec asked, leaning down to look me dead in eyes, annoyance clear in his eyes even though his face showed no such thing. "So, if I were to place my hands like this," he wrapped his right hand around my neck, lining his lips with my ear, "and squeeze like this," he pressed light pressure, his fingernails hiding beneath the fabric of his glove hardly digging into my flesh as I closed my eyes again, "you wouldn't be scared?"
"No." I choked out. Ironically.
He got off on watching me be afraid.
And just like every time I was in my dark place, or when Katy finished with me-I did the one thing I always knew how to do.

"-That turns me on," I said through a grin, snapping my eyes open to see his blazing blue eyes narrowing at me in slits. I was scared shitless, no matter how many time I reminded myself I shouldn't be, but that's just my nature-but seeing the small gap between his lips from being caught off guard made that inch of fear crawl back where it came from.
I titled my head at him while he snarled his lip, yanking his hands back to himself and put space between us. "You're nasty." He sneered.
"And you're psychotic." I snickered as I watched him eyeball me like he's coming to another conclusion of something in his head.
