The Pawn and The Puppet (The Pawn and The Puppet #1)

by Brandi Elise Szeker

If I turn a blind eye, I am no better than the people who revel in their torture.

I avoid the reflection that will peer back at me in the mirror. I refuse to stare into those cold green eyes. Scarlett’s eyes. The eyes I gazed into as I lit her house on fire.

Im sorry whaaaaaattttttt!!!!! You were found holding her ashes and crying and it was you!!!!! 👀

“Miss Ambrose?” I freeze. I never told her my full name. “Don’t be frightened. He’s been expecting you.”

“I’ll thank you kindly to keep your hands off of my conformist,” he says, his rugged voice quieting the panic in the room like a theater. “You wouldn’t want me to lose my temper.”

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhy

“Now, if we’re followed, I’ll use this knife to dismember the rule breaker that decided to ignore my warning and deliver their parts to their families. Is that understood?”

Morally black is my favorite color 🖤

“I need to hear you say it. Tell me you’re safe.” Another whine as I struggle to catch my breath. “I’m—safe.” A thick, wholesome tear slips from my right eye. “That’s right. You’re safe. You’re safe with me.”

Yesssss touch her and die but you’re the most unhinged in the building but you keep her safe 🤤🤤

“You’re going to drink this. We’re going to fight through it together. And you’re going to leave this room without a scratch. They’ll think you’re an untouchable demon from hell.”

Okay sir purrrrrrrrr
