"Ava look at me," This time the way he says it isn't threatening or filled with malice. He wants to tell me something so I turn my head to face him. "You deserve the world, Mrs. Hunt. You know I can give you that and so much more," My heart skips a beat when he reveals shining, white teeth. His words, along with his smoldering eyes give me chills. "You know that, right?" His malachite eyes roam mine while my throat becomes dry. He's dissecting me while my thoughts race. What am I doing? Was this part of my plan? Can I really lead him on? I jump when I feel his electrifying touch on my chin. "And you also know that I'll always get what I want. That includes when I want it, and how I want it." He licks his lips emphasizing the word 'how'. I know Ian Hunt, and I know that tonight was a sacrifice for him. His motto is pain before pleasure, and my pain is his pleasure. But tonight was different. Something tells me that this will be the first and last time I'll receive enjoyment from it. I groan when he squeezes my chin painfully, forcing me to nod my head. "Glad you understand, now let's sleep." I lay down rigidly, too afraid to move. And just like he made me feel safe earlier, he's making me feel frightened now. His hands are tightly wrapped around me as we lay tangled in the sheets. As I lay in the arms of Danger. **End** Ranked #11 in Action as of 12/18/2014 ©Copyright All Rights Reserved Cover and story by Elegant_Imani Rated PG -13 for now but that could change ;)
