In my bedroom, Iâm anxious. Knowing sheâs only downstairs, locked up tight, has me aching to go to her, to heal the pain I saw so clearly in her eyes. But if I did that, I wouldnât be able to stop until she was nothing more than a whimpering mess. And her coming off whatever the fuck Paulo got her addicted to isnât going to be easy for her.
Pulling out my phone, I hit call on Ulrichâs number. The doctor Iâve known all my life has always been a help when needed, and this time, heâs going to have to be here for my girl.
âMr. Thorne,â he greets, his voice happy and light.
âDoctor, I need your help. Iâm sorry itâs so late, but I have my girlfriend here and sheâs been struggling with addiction. I donât want to send her to the hospital just yet. Would you be able to come and check in on her?â
âHow long has this been going on?â I can hear the worry in his tone.
Sighing, I tell him the story, how Kalyn is only now coming to terms with whatâs been going on, the abuse, the addiction. And even though she hasnât asked for help yet, I need him to make sure she gets through this.
âGive me thirty minutes and Iâll be there, Iâm just finishing up at the hospital. In the mean time, stay with her, try to keep her calm and donât let her out of your sight.â
âSee you soon.â I hang up before shoving my phone into my pocket. I could taunt her until she focuses on me only. I could take her to the edge, leaving her teetering, needing nothing more than orgasm after orgasm that Iâll bestow on her beautiful body. But thatâs not how I want to help her. Because turning her addiction from drugs to sex is unhealthy, no matter how much I crave a taste of her.
My bedroom door opens, and I know itâs Finn. I donât look away from the garden, my focus on the window in front of me that offers a view of the woods that line the back of our property.
âI have a feeling someoneâs gotten way under your skin,â Finn remarks from behind me. Iâm not sure how to answer him because I know Kalyn has always been under my skin. She burrowed herself there long before I even realized what had happened.
I spent my youth enjoying the single life. I never once had a girlfriend, and even when I thought about a relationship, the only person who ever crossed my mind was her.
âThereâs nothing to talk about,â I tell Finn, and the lie tastes bitter on my tongue. Weâve always been close. Thereâs nothing my brother doesnât know about me. And I know itâs the same the other way around. But with her, I want to keep her all to myself. âHave we found a weakness in that bastardâs armor?â I ask instead before he has time to talk about Kalyn.
Finn sighs.
