RAINE

“Are you going to answer Detective Ramirez’s text anytime soon?” I couldn’t breathe. His words echoed in the chamber of the bathroom that had only moments before been filled with the sounds of him fucking me and me thoroughly enjoying it.

I couldn’t break my gaze from his in the mirror, staring at the flaming black depths of his eyes and unable to come up with a single word. Half of a word even.

All warmth from my body suddenly left me, leaving cold terror in its wake. I tried to push myself back up on my feet and reposition the way I had been leaning against the counter.

He knew.

He knew and he’d just fucked me anyway.

I knew he had been angry, but I’d never thought . . .

Oh, God.

I felt sick, finally standing straight and going to back away from his gaze only to realize that he stood behind me and that by backing up I was putting myself closer to him. I saw his gaze flicker, and dread flooded my stomach.

Alessio had never scared me.

Not like he did in that moment. The rage and contempt in his eyes made me feel as if I were more worthless to him than dog shit on the bottom of his shoe. I whirled around as he took a step forward, intent on at least facing him, but he didn’t give me a chance.

By the time I’d turned to face him he’d crossed what little distance there was between us, grabbing me by my forearm and hauling me away from the door. I could feel his cum leaking out of me as he threw me, my back hitting the wall behind me with a solid thud as he moved to place himself squarely between me and my only exit.

My heart hammered faster than it ever had, my heart sinking. This isn’t how I’d wanted him to find out. “Alessio,” I begged, finally able to at least speak his name, but even me just talking made a sneer break out across his lips.

“Alessio, please,” I begged, hyperventilating over just those few words as I held my hands up feebly in front of me.

Such a move was as stupid as it was ineffectual. He had me by the throat in a matter of seconds, lifting me up and until my toes just barely grazed the tile beneath them, my back pushed into the wall and his eyes swimming with a storm that I’d never seen directed my way.

“Micetta,” he spat, the word once said in fondness now disgusted and cruel. “You tell me why I shouldn’t just kill you now, si? Why I shouldn’t leave your body here on the floor for my guards to clean up. I told you before it was hard not to. I had no idea how much harder you could make it . . .”

My chest heaved, my eyes burning as tears began to fall despite my attempt at keeping them in check.

“Because I love you,” I breathed, the confession pulled from the very depths of my being without forethought.
