Crystal

I’m so mad I can’t think straight. I can’t think at all. I just turn and run because I know if I don’t, I’m going to explode. Devlin’s voice cuts through the night, a sharp command, but I don’t stop. The next second, I hear his footsteps behind me, quick and light as he races after me like I intercepted the ball. But this isn’t a game. Not anymore. There’s too much at stake.

Devlin’s hand closes around my upper arm, yanking me to a stop so fast I whip around and without thinking, strike him. My palm stings across his cheek, and Devlin’s head snaps back. His eyes widen, and I cringe backwards, expecting a blow in return. Instead, he grabs me and wrenches me to him, his mouth smashing down on mine. For one second, I let myself have what I want so much, more than anything in the world.

And then reality crashes over me. What he’s done to me, said to me, burns through the fog in my mind, stinging through my veins like acid.

I tear myself from him and throw my hair back, trying to collect myself. “No, Devlin,” I say, hurling the words at him like missiles. “You can’t just kiss me and think it erases everything you just said. You can’t just—”

I don’t get to finish, because he grabs me and kisses me again, his mouth claiming mine with the force of a hungry tiger. His teeth clash with mine, and I taste blood, and I don’t care if it’s his or mine. I want this kiss, his kiss, to last forever. This is the only place where we’re good, and I don’t want to ruin it. My body welcomes the kiss, swooning with relief against him, my thirst quenched at last.

“No,” I say again, but this time, Devlin holds on tight when I try to break free. I struggle, yanking at my arms, but he holds fast. I lose my footing on the slippery dew and go down, and Devlin drops with me, rolling onto me and pinning my hands. My body awakens at the contact, and I writhe like a live wire, aching for the pleasure and pain of his brutality. I can’t tell if I’m trying to free myself or rub myself against him until he’s the one who breaks, until he can’t resist the temptation of my body under his any more than I can resist him.

“Crystal, would you—”

This time, I cut him off. “Let me go,” I bark, jerking my hands free. I buck under him, rolling us sideways. He grabs my hips, flipping us until I’m on top of him. I sit up, straddling his hips, and pull back. My hand blazes across his other cheek like lightning, and I relish the sting against my palm, the fury that storms his eyes and takes them over.

“You fucking bitch,” he says, snatching my hand before I can hit him again. He flips us back over, grinding me into the ground as his hips pin mine.
