Tempted by Deception (Deception Trilogy, #2)

“Adrian…” I whisper, trying to sound normal despite my escalating nerves. “Let him go.” “It appears he put his hand on you.”

“If anyone touches you again, I’ll make sure it’s their last time to touch anyone.” I shudder, and I’m not sure if it’s because of his words or his hold on my hand—or both. All I’m sure about is that this man is a lot more dangerous than I thought.

His voice lowers with a dark, seductive undertone. “It tells me that you were disappointed I left that day. You wanted more, didn’t you? You wanted me to tear into that tight cunt of yours and fuck you into the mattress until my cum covered your every pore while you screamed my name.”

“I’m going to fuck you so hard, you won’t be able to move, Lia, and when you do, you’ll only feel me inside you.”

“You called me a disaster, but this is the true disaster, Lia. You and me.”

“You asked when I’d be done. The answer is never. I’ll never be done with you, Lenochka.”

“Scars mean you are alive and strong enough to survive.” He kisses the top of my head. “I’ll worship each of your scars until you’re able to face them, Lenochka.”

“We’ll have a redo, and this time, you’ll fucking scream, Lia.” “Never,” I mutter. “Then we’ll go at this all night until you do. You’ll bow to me, wife.” Not in this life, husband.

A sob tears from my throat, because I know, I just know that I lost a part of Adrian tonight. The part I fell in love with.

Someone. Else. As in Lia has been meeting someone behind my fucking back. “Who?” She shakes her head. “I won’t tell you who he is so you can kill him.” He. It’s a fucking he. Lia has been meeting a motherfucking ‘he’ behind my back.

My hand wraps around her throat, tilting it back and squeezing. “I should kill you right now.” “Do. It,” she manages. “Dying is better than living with you.”

“Did he look at this body, Lia? Did he look at what’s fucking mine?”

“This cunt is mine.” I lift her thigh and slap her ass, hard, and she gasps. “This ass is also mine. You belong to me, and I will fuck that fact into you until it’s the only thing you breathe and think about. Next time you even consider letting another man look at you, let alone touch you, you’ll recall this moment when every inch of you is owned by me.”

“Understand this, Lia. I might not hurt you, might not fucking kill you, even though you deserve it, but I’ll find that bastard, and when I do, I’ll fuck you in front of him before I slice his fucking throat. Then I’ll fuck you again in the pool of his blood.” I release her neck and she sucks in deep breaths, tears sliding down her cheeks. “Protect him while you can.”

“I took your hand before, Adrian, and you smothered me with it.” I smile a little. “I’d rather die quickly than slowly.”
