Forest green eyes lowered to my parted lips, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. "But I'll give you this, guarding anyone wasn't apart of my plans either." As he turned to the door, I felt the heat vanish at the process of his words, the anger boiling instead. "No, and here I thought you're just a product of my imagination." He stopped, turning to look at me over his shoulder. He blinked slowly before saying, "Did you like me that much?" My breath caught at the sound of his tone. Husky, deep, practically oozing sex, just like his appearance. "Wh-what?" I stammered confused. He smirked, facing me again as he stepped closer. I stepped back, hitting with the back of my thighs the foot of the bed, and he followed, stopping before I fell into the cushions. ❝𝓓𝓲𝓭 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓶𝓮 𝓮𝓷𝓸𝓾𝓰𝓱 𝓽𝓸 𝓫𝓮 𝓪 𝓹𝓻𝓸𝓭𝓾𝓬𝓽 𝓸𝓯 𝔂𝓸𝓾𝓻 𝓲𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓷𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷, 𝓴𝓲𝓽𝓽𝓮𝓷?❞

+++✦+++ His hand gripped my neck-not tight enough to choke but enough to make his point. His other hand pressed against the fridge just above my shoulder, trapping me. My mouth parted in shock, my eyes locking with his. The sly smirk curving his lips sent a shiver down my spine. "Don't toy with me, kitten," He murmured, the nickname laced with sarcasm. "Kitten...funny, isn't it? Something so small and harmless, yet trying to claw its way out of trouble." His smirk widened. "But if I find out you're lying..." He leaned in, his voice a low, dangerous whisper near my ear, "...well, let's just say tearing you to pieces won't be off the table." "And if you think about skipping town before I'm fully recovered..." His grip tightened slightly, as he looked me deep in the eyes. "I'll find you, no matter where you go." He tilted his head, his calm delivery making the threat all the more unsettling. "Do you understand me?" His words weren't loud, but they didn't need to be. His gaze bore into mine, daring me to defy him. "Yes." I swallowed hard, nodding slightly, my voice betraying me with its lack of strength. "Good girl." He watched me with a pleased, almost smug expression. He loosened his grip, but he didn't move away. +++✦+++ In a city plagued by crime and violence, a young woman fights to stay hidden from her sadistic stepfather and his ruthless gang.
