'I hate you,' I yell.
His hands grab the width of my hips, pushing me back to the wall. I'm hot and wet and bothered, I can't even stand straight, but all that I can think of is how much I loathe the man in front of me. His lips are inches away from my own. I want to push him away, and hold him close at the same time it's confusing. But then, everything just falls apart when he lowers his lips to my ears.
'I hope you remember that when I fuck you, over and over.'
