Chapter 6

Hot tears were forming in my eyes as my body instinctively struggled against my attacker. He held my arms above my head, one of his hands easily encircling my small wrists. His other hand was touching me again, trailing slowly down my throat before tracing a line down my sternum, stopping at the top of my cleavage.

He smiled down at me, his eyes devoid of any shred of humanity. I knew what he was going to do, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. I jerked desperately against his grip.

“Please,” I begged, by voice ragged as I forced it through the tightness in my throat. “Don’t.”

His smile twisted into a horrible, rictus grin as he gripped my breast hard, squeezing painfully.

The tears spilled down my cheeks and I let out a despairing sob. I hated myself in that moment, hated myself for giving in, for showing weakness to this man who wanted nothing but to break me. But he was right: I couldn’t help but play his game. And I hated myself all the more for proving him right even as I tried to kick at his shins. But he was too close for me to get any momentum, and my efforts were fruitless.

A furious roar echoed through the alleyway, filling the cramped space. My attacker was torn away from me as something hit him hard from the side, knocking him to the ground. Someone was atop him immediately, driving his fist downward. There was a sickening crunch as it made contact with the man’s face. He gave a pitiful cry, but the man assaulting him didn’t stop. He pummeled him once, twice more, until my attacker was making sick, gurgling sounds as he gasped for breath.

The man pushed himself up off of him, pulling out a gun as he did so. He aimed it directly at my attacker’s heart. There was a loud click as he cocked the gun, and for a moment, I hoped that he would fire it.

“Get out of here,” he growled, his voice low and dangerous. “If I ever see you in this neighborhood again, I won’t hesitate to kill you. Understand?”

The bloody man nodded jerkily as he forced himself upright, clinging to the wall for support as he pulled himself out of the alleyway, clearly desperate to get away. He shot one last look at me, pure hatred filling his eyes. I shuddered and dropped my gaze, unable to look at him any longer. Instead, I turned my eyes on my savior.

Sean’s expression was furious, and I trembled in the wake of his glare. Or maybe that was just the residual shock of what had happened to me. Whatever it was, it was too much for me to handle. My shaking knees gave way beneath me, and I could see the ground rushing up at me.

But I never felt the impact. Instead, a pair of strong arms caught me, lifting me up to cradle me against a hard chest. Panic
