And if any man ever gets the chance to get her naked enough to see it, then it’ll be the last thing he sees before I rip his fucking head off.
My mother sits at the island. Lincoln stands in front of the open fridge.
He turns to face me again, moving to stand in front of me. His eyes on mine. “Did you really think I loved you?”
I can’t breathe. Can’t move. My vision fades in and out, and I think I’m about to lose consciousness.
again. It’s him. The kid from James’s office, then their reception.
“Chance here is Lincoln’s nephew.” My breath hitches. “And he’s going to be your husband.”
“If someone is here, then it won’t matter if we confirm it or not.” Shaking his head, he adds, “They won’t be leaving. To the world, they no longer exist.”
When you’re told you can have anything you want, women included, why would they be satisfied with one?
A cold chill runs up my back, and I stiffen. My heart picks up at the shadow I see in the window standing behind me.
“Why are you here, Sin?”
Yeah Sin . I don’t like this little game you’re playin . It’s suicide inducing not orgasm inducing
I want him to fucking break. It’s my turn to destroy something.
Baby, I don’t think we’re going to get that reaction .
hate that the guy who saved me is the same guy who no longer wants me.
My pussy clenches with excitement.
Mine too
hate myself more than I could ever hate him.
“I’d hate for Becks to question your loyalty to him.”
“Her Lord drags her to the cathedral kicking and screaming. He strips her naked and ties her down at the altar in front of the congregation. Then an offering basket is passed around to his fellow Lords who fill the pews. But instead of collecting money, they pass out razor blades. Then, one by one, the Lords stand, go to the altar, and cut his Lady. Blood is a price we all must pay.”
My bedroom door opens so hard it bangs against the interior wall, leaving a massive hole from the knob hitting the drywall. “You sorry son of a bitch…” My sister’s words trail off when her eyes meet mine and then go to the guy beside me.
“Please,” she begs. “Tell me that my best friend is not an assignment.”
look over at Chance and he crosses his arms over his chest, glaring at her.
“Don’t fucking touch her,” Corbin barks, stepping out of my bathroom, hearing the commotion while pocketing his cell.
“You knew? Everything you said to her … you were lying?”
“You fucking bastard,” she spits out. “She loves you.” My chest tightens. “She loves you, and you’ve ruined her.”
“And you told her about James and Lincoln,” she says. “Why? To make yourself feel better? You’re no better than them. Taking advantage of her.”
“How the fuck does she know all of that?” I ask myself. “Amelia,” Chance answers. “How the fuck did she know?” I narrow my eyes on him. He raises his hands. “I haven’t told that bitch shit.” “That only leaves one other person.”
Lincoln.
Who the fuck is taking the picture?
I flinch at his words, praying he’s wrong. I look away from him, not wanting to reveal what Ryat told me. He didn’t have to come to me like he did. I’m thankful for that, but I won’t betray his trust or loyalty.
She has to be alive. My future is in her hands.
“Get on your knees and thank me,” he orders, getting straight to why he’s in my room.
That she knew about your father and his father having some sort of agreement that after you graduated Barrington, you were to marry him.” My
He loves you too much.”
“See, Sin was given an assignment off the books. Of course, he didn’t know that. It was more of an experiment on my end. I wanted to see just how far he’d go for his little demon. And poof, the guy ended up dead. Photos of you naked and being used—gone. All for you, Elli.
Linc set Sin up by hooking me up with David.
can’t let them strip him of his title. Not because of me. I’m tired of being the reason people get hurt. This is my future. Being passed around and used.
expel what Linc forced me to swallow. It’s like déjà vu.
“You have to tell him you’re pregnant,” she urges. “I’m not fucking pregnant!” I scream. “Jesus Christ, Kira. I’m not fucking pregnant. Let it go. Worry about yourself. Huh? Who the fuck knows if Corbin is being faithful to you.”
Losing my goddamn mind over a game that I can’t win.
life has taught me anything, it’s that it doesn’t stop when you need rest. You swallow your cries, and you lift your chin. Because life doesn’t give a fuck about you. You either take it, or you let it kill you.
“I’m a Lord,” I say. “I can do whatever I want.”
“I’m tired of being the whore that no one can love.”
watch, my eyes glued to the screen and my hands tightening on my phone to the point I might break it while he threatens her… With me. She opens her mouth for him because of me. He fucking uses her because of me.
“Anyone, and I mean any-fucking-one touches her again, and I don’t give a fuck where we are or who’s watching, they’re dead.”
“Keep your eyes on my wife. If anything happens to her, I’ll dig them out of your fucking head with a butter knife,” I threaten.
He threatened my status with the Lords, and she did whatever he wanted. I hate that. She shouldn’t be protecting me.
She’s no longer my little demon. She’s Ellington Asher, the girl they wanted to break.
She was slaughtered for something she didn’t do.
