Chapter Four

ROSE

I wrapped my arms around David and hugged him, silently praying to any higher power that was listening to let him be right. The last thing I wanted was to go back to Brandon, especially not after finally reconnecting with David, the man I had once wanted more than air.

I still wanted him that much, even after our long separation.

But even though I wanted him, even though I wanted to stay, I didn’t know if I could. It was abundantly clear that the past three years had changed him a lot more than they had changed me and I was worried about the man he had become. His behavior was already a little frightening.

My mind and my heart were screaming at me, logic trying to get me away from him, but my emotions desperate to cling on tightly and never let go. When he tilted his head and fully pressed his lips to mine again, I knew I couldn’t just give him up.

“I’ll stay,” I whispered breathlessly when we finally broke apart.

He smiled and I pulled my hands to my face, wiping away what was left of my tears.

“Are you hungry?” he asked quietly, taking my hands in his and pulling me towards the kitchen.

“No,” I said, tugging his hands to make him stop. “Not yet. Can we just… talk?”

“Of course,” he motioned towards the couch, the one he had just fucked me on, and I felt a shiver go up my spine. I made my way there and sat down, modestly closing my legs in a vain attempt to keep his attention on my face.

He plopped down beside me and got close, wrapping his arm around my back as I turned to face him better.

“How… How have you been?” I asked lamely, not quite sure where to start.

David laughed. “No complaints. Although I would’ve been better with you at my side.”

I blushed and looked down, my eyes settling on his chest. “When did you move to New York? Last I heard you were in Miami.”

“I moved here when I heard you were going to school in the city.”

I snapped my eyes back to his, looking at him sharply as I asked, “And where did you hear that?”

“I have my ways of finding things out,” he replied vaguely.

“And… And you’ve been following me?”

He shook his head. “I delegated that duty. I have a few men who keep tabs on you. I didn’t trust myself to be in your vicinity without acting on it.”

There was an unsettling feeling rising in my stomach as countless questions flew through my mind. “They take pictures of me?” I asked in a small voice.

“Sometimes, yes.”

I twisted my hands together nervously, fighting back my fight or flight instincts as they screamed at me to run. “You… called them your men? What does that mean?”

“It means they work for me.”

“Doing what?”

“Whatever I tell them to do. Things like watching you, collecting you-”

“Collecting? Really? You mean kidnapping.”

David smiled and pulled me closer to him. My body tensed with fear, but he only brushed a kiss to my forehead and whispered, “Call it whatever you like.
