Opening the door to my house, I was hesitant to go inside. I had walked out of here last night scared and anxious and with Onyx. The way I’d been feeling when I left last night had nothing to do with the man who had been beside me as I left my house. On what planet did Onyx Santo make me feel safer? But then, when I thought about it, he always had. The Devils were dicks, complete assholes, but they didn’t tolerate stuff like this, and I knew they would be actively looking for the person who was doing this to me. It was reassuring, and that small measure of comfort that they were offering me right now, I would gladly take.

Pushing the door open, I stepped inside and realised I was holding my breath. Angry at myself for being this frail person, I shut the door firmly behind me and struck the deadbolt home with a determined push.

Placing my overnight bag on the couch, which was still made up as a bed, I shrugged off my jacket. Everything looked the same, but everything felt different. With a shake of my shoulders to loosen myself up, I headed to my bedroom.

When they had left last night, I hadn’t been brave enough to go back there, and then Onyx had turned up and basically ordered me to go home with him, and then I had been in such a rush to leave I hadn’t noticed what they had done.

Standing in the doorway of my bedroom, I looked at my stripped bed, the mattress bare, the pillows had no pillowcases on them, and the nightstand was askew. That had probably been Charlie as he rummaged under my bed looking for who knows what. I really hoped it was more than just my vibrator, but at the same time, I didn’t want to know exactly what he was looking for.

Taking measured steps, I crossed the room to my bathroom. Looking around, I realised that in my haste to leave, I had missed things that Cooper must have taken.

My cell ringing made me jump, but I knew who it was likely to be, so I didn’t run to the living room to pick it up. Instead, I took note of what I needed to replace, and then when my cell rang again, I made my way to my purse.

“Hello.”

“When I tell you that there is a car coming for you, I actually send a car,” Onyx said with his low lazy drawl, and I glared at my belly in accusation as I felt it flip at his voice. What the hell was that?

“I didn’t need one, but, um, thanks.” I had to stop thanking him. This was becoming a habit, and it was a habit I needed to break.

“I hear you’re taking a personal day,” he said casually.

“Yes, I feel nauseous.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Silence. I shifted the weight of one foot to another. “Is there anything else?” I asked him, my eyes closing at the submissiveness I heard in my own voice.
