Suddenly, he shoved me against the refrigerator, his hand gripping my neck while the other pressed against the fridge beside my head.

My lips parted slightly in shock as I met his gaze. "Don't toy with me, kitten." He whispered, a sly smile playing on his lips.

"If I find out you're lying, there's a good chance I might have to kill you." His eyes flicked down to my lips and back up, the threat hanging heavy in the air.

I realized he wasn't trying to strangle me, but the danger was unmistakable.

"And if you try to leave town before I recover, I will find you wherever you are." His voice was a chilling blend of bluntness and eerie calm.

"Do you understand?" His gaze bore into mine.

"Why don't you just kill me right now?" I ventured, pushing my luck.

A pleased look crossed his face as he released his grip on my neck.
