CHAPTER NINE
Ava
âGood command,â Cas says with a grin, returning to the makeshift bed. âAlthough you might regret it.â
I shake my head. âI donât⦠think I will.â
He chuckles. âI donât mean it like that. I think youâll enjoy this, but you donât know the things I imagine doing to you.â
âWill it hurt?â
âMaybe. Some.â He stares into my eyes. âDoes that scare you?â
âYes.â
âDo you want me to stop?â
âIf I said yes, would you?â My heart is thundering as I lean back and he presses me forward, lowering his body to mine, pinning me in place.
He shakes his head. âNo.â
I glance to the side, and reach out to grab Mr. Cuddles by the head. Then I pick him up and turn him around to face the other way. Heâs been with me since I was two years old, and the things Cas is going to do to me⦠The things heâs threatening and the things Iâm imagining, Iâm pretty sure I donât want my old friend to see them.
Iâd never be able to look him in the eye again.
Cas grabs my wrists and roughly raises them, pinning them above my head, and all my attention returns to him as he stares down at me, hesitating, pulling his punches.
âIsâ¦â I draw a breath.
Am I in or out? Either itâs Cas and me, one hundred percent, or this will never work.
With a grin, I play my tongue in the corner of my lip. âIs that the best youâve got?â
He chuckles, and in an instant I feel his hand around my throat, gripping my jaw tight. âThat mouth is going to get you in trouble.â
I squirm, but he has me held firm, the air coming hard in my lungs. Even so, I meet his eyes and choke out a single word. âHarder.â
The hand around my throat squeezes, cutting off all breath, and my eyes go wide, fixed on his, as I writhe beneath him. The hand holding my arms above my head has them firm, but his body is pinning mine to the mattress.
With an effort, I bring my leg up and slam it into his back. His grip doesnât relent. I slam it again, desperation kicking in. Beautiful, all-consuming desperation, driving all other thoughts out of my mind.
Iâm no longer thinking about the fire, no longer wondering where Rob is right now, no longer frightened for the future or worried about what this is between me and Cas. My only concern is freeing my throat and taking a breath.
With a third and final effort, I drive my knee into the small of his back, and feel his hand go loose on my wrist.
And I slap him hard across the face.
With a scream as I finally draw air into my lungs, I twist and throw him off me, strength I never knew I possessed washing through me. Heâs laughing as a red welt rises on his cheek, and that only brings on more fury as I pin him to the bed and straddle him.
âLetâs see how you like it,â I rage, getting both hands around his neck and squeezing.
