Chapter 20 - Tongue Tied

Peter’s arms momentarily tightened around her and then slowly relaxed when he turned his head in the direction of the sound.

“What is this?” She heard Salvador’s accusing voice from the doorway, barely containing his temper.

Katherine panicked at his voice. It was one thing to think about withholding her love and keeping her hurt from him, it was another to act on it when he was with her. At first the pain rushed back and threatened to break her again. She clutched onto Peter for dear life as her body began to tremble with hurt, until she realized that he was accusing them of infidelity when he himself found pleasure with that whore! A sudden rush of fury crossed her features and she had to hold herself back from leaping across the room to scratch his eyes out, in fact - if Peter wasn’t holding her in a tight embrace, she was pretty sure she would have already done so.

She couldn’t look at him. She stared into the flames and tried to bury her fury and hurt as to not give away her knowledge of his mistress, but it was so hard.

She looked up at Peter and he was studying her face with a curiosity she didn’t like. It was as though he was trying to penetrate her thoughts and read her soul.

Within a flash, Salvador was in front of them and ripping her out of Peter’s lap. She cried out as his fingers buried themselves into her flesh and his traitorous body slammed against hers as he forcefully drew her against him.

Peter stood up in an instant and faced Salvador head on.

“Brother, calm yourself and remember who I am.” Peter growled out to him.

Katherine peered back at him and saw that his fists were clenched at his sides and he was shaking in his fury.

Salvador was also shaking as he gripped her to him. She thought about him gripping Allison to him in equal passion and sobbed out, ripping herself out of his grip and stepping away from him.

She didn’t mean to and only realized her mistake when she was well out of his reach and staring into his furious gaze.

Peter’s body broke the trance as he stepped into view and clutched her shoulders.

A low growl broke from Salvador’s throat but he did not move. Peter ignored him as he searched Katherine’s face for something she wasn’t sure of.

“I need to speak with Salvador, will you be ok by yourself or do you want me to send for Sarah again?” He asked in a gentle voice that did not reflect his body language.

“I want to be alone” She replied without tone or emotion in her voice.

Peter pulled her into a final embrace and then gently let her go, strolling past Salvador towards the door.

Salvador still did not move and she couldn’t for the life of her look at him. All the emotion had drained from her and again she felt like an empty shell. No longer could she stand his touch - the touch that she used to yearn for.
