Liam insisted we leave, not even taking a second to text his parents and let them know.

He called for the car, and as we waited outside for the valet to bring it around, I made the mistake of telling him that I’d noticed the man sitting at the table next to me earlier, that he’d been staring at me.

Liam’s shoulders tensed.

He was quiet on the ride back to his parents’ house. It still didn’t seem as if he’d texted them to let them know we’d left, and I knew better than to ask.

When we pulled into the driveway, Liam cut the engine, but made no move to get out of the car.

It was dark and the air outside was still. This wasn’t the kind of neighborhood where someone would be having a party or kids would be walking around late at night, shouting to each other. Everything was quiet.

We sat there in the dark, the only light coming from the outside lights of the house, two on either side of the front door, and a line of them flanking the stone walkway that led up to the front porch.

“You need to be more careful, Emery,” Liam said sternly.

“Are you fucking kidding me?” I said, turning on him. “I need to be more careful?”

“Yes.”

“That’s bullshit.”

I went to get out of the car, but he locked the door, keeping me prisoner.

“You know, you have some nerve,” I said. “You’re the one who left me to go downstairs with your father. You’re the one who doesn’t tell me anything. You won’t even tell me why we have to be careful, what these people -- ”

“You know there are people out there who want to hurt you, Emery. You’ve known that since Vegas.”

“You won’t tell me anything!” I said. I knew I was repeating myself, but I didn’t care. “You’re blaming me for something that isn’t even my fault.”

“I’m not blaming you. I’m telling you that you need to be more careful.”

“This is ridiculous.” I hit the button to unlock the door, then opened it before he could stop me and stepped out onto the driveway.

“Where are you going?” he demanded, opening his own door and following me.

“I’m leaving,” I said, opening my purse and reaching for my phone. “I’m calling an Uber, I’m going to the airport, and I’m leaving.”

“No, you’re not.” He grabbed my purse and held it out of my reach.

“Oh, of course,” I said. “Of course you would do that, of course you would try to keep me here, because that’s what you do.” My hands curled into fists by my sides, and I resisted the urge to scream. “You use your size and your power to keep me here, and it’s fucked up, Liam.”

His eyes burned with desire, and I saw him looking at me, taking in the dress I was wearing, his gaze roaming over my body hungrily.

He took a step toward me, and I tensed as my body did exactly what he’d primed it to do. My breathing deepened, my body flushed warm, and the spot between my legs pulsed with need.
