Chapter 15

Rosalind

It’s starting to get dark out, and I can’t concentrate on the book. It’s one of those blockbusters, an over the top spy story that’s been made into three different movies and is something I imagine someone like Rush reading. Someone knocks on the door, and Mia appears, a harried expression around the edges of her mouth.

“I need a new maid,” she says, so soft I’m not sure I’m meant to hear it.

“You only had one?” The words are out before I can stop them, but she doesn’t seem bothered.

“Nikolai isn’t a fan of a houseful of people getting in his way. Yes, I have help. I meant a competent one.”

She means Sylvie. The girl pulls at something in my memory, something that was said before I was taken, but I can’t grab it.

“Dinner will be late.” Then she nods to me. “When everyone’s home. If you want something now, I can send it up.”

“A phone?”

She presses her lips together on either a smile or a shard of disapproval, I don’t know which. Then, she leaves.

I want to call Genius. It burns in me with guilt. I should have thought about her more after Nikolai took me, but then, I didn’t give anything a lot of thought, besides trying to survive and work out the rules of his world, while also dealing with all the humiliation and dark, vibrating excitement he set off in me.

I don’t think he’s going to kill me anymore—willingly, at least—but I still don’t know how I’m going to survive this chaos. He wants me to put myself in danger, and I…I might let him. I’m not even sure why. There’s a part of me that’s doing it because he asked, even though I know he’s using me, like everyone else in his world. There’s a part that thinks if I do it, I’ll be free. Then, there’s a part that wants to do it to extract revenge on my father.

Thinking of that asshole skeeves me out, so I strip down and go into the bathroom, turning on the shower. I start to lather up, and my fingers slip down with the sponge, between my thighs. Maybe…

There’s no camera in here, at least not one I’ve found. Though my body is tingling, my clit starting to ache, I just clean. I don’t spend time touching and exploring and raising the pleasure to release. A dark thrill throbs inside me over the fact that I’m obeying him.

Crap. I shove my thoughts away as I reach for the shampoo and start on my hair.

I need a plan. There’s not much I can do until I can get out of here. This fortress of a house is too guarded, too under lock and key to escape, but maybe I can keep my eye out for a phone.

When someone has one, I can steal it the moment they put it down and call Genius. Of course, there are pins. I can try and watch for those, see if I can catch one.
