Pursing my lips, I shuffle into place, feigning a submission I don’t feel. I must have a death wish because there’s no way I’m keeping this off of my face. If he sees it, though, he doesn’t notice or make a comment. That’s probably better for my ass. A wave of loneliness swamps me as I recite back to him like a toddler. At least at the university, I had friends. I had a life. Here, it’s nothing but Master Grigori, Mr. Ivan, and whatever low-lives he has storming around the place.

Why did I have to ruin all of it by pining after Professor Richards? I should have known better than to fool myself into thinking there’d be a future. Maybe my parents were right. There’s nothing special about me, so why would someone special want me? Looking up between my lowered lashes, I stare at Master Grigori. If I were being honest with myself, he’s definitely better looking than the professor in that hot, mercenary kind of way.

He was for sure more built than him. Staring at his forearms, I feel that familiar flutter of arousal low in my hips. I mean, sure, Professor Richards turned me on, but with Grigori, it felt different. Instead of a steady hum, it was a raging inferno. The main problem with being stuck here instead of at the university is that I have no one to talk to and figure out my feelings. Hell, even Bethany would be a kind ear right now. I could talk to them on the phone, but it’s not the same. Nothing will ever be the same.

“Were you listening to me?”

I jump at his words, adrenaline crawling up my throat. Fuck. What did I miss while I was daydreaming? I spasm around the plug, dreading what new, humiliating punishment he’ll have for me.

“Forgive me, Master. My brain was elsewhere.”

He crosses his arms, shirt straining across his pecs.

“That part was obvious. What isn’t is where your brain actually went?”

Should I tell him the truth? What good would it do me? It’s not like he would even care that there was no one here to keep my company. Sighing, I shift in my position, hanging my head further down.

“I’m lonely. That’s all.”

I cringe inside, waiting for him to laugh at me or, worse, tell me that someone like me doesn’t deserve friends. By all rights, he’s probably correct. I was practically handed Melody on a platter, and what did I do? I betrayed her at the onset. My lips curl up in a sneer as I remember her and Professor Richards leaving me strung up and at Master Grigori’s mercy. Was that just the other day? It still guts me every time it replays behind my eyelids. Try as I might, I can’t scrub it out.

“I understand. I can see where it might be lonely for you. I have Ivan and my men. You don’t have a single person to gossip with. Don’t worry, though.” He pauses to lift his knuckle under my chin.
