Chapter Sixteen

Alexandra had never been in so much pain in her life. But she also felt incredibly stupid. How could she ever think that Blaise might be telling the truth? She was filled with self-loathing. When it came to important decisions, she always chose the wrong one. Blaise was the biggest mistake of all. She had horrible judgment of people. Perhaps that was why her patient had died.

She wiped her tears away as she ran to her truck. With shaky hands, she put the keys in the lock and turned it.

“Alexandra!”

His voice made her hasten.

“STOP!”

She opened the door but he slammed it closed.

“It’s not what you think!”

Alexandra took a deep breath and stilled the tears coming down her face. “Blaise, get away from me.”

“No, let me explain.”

Alexandra was tired of hearing people’s excuses for their actions. Gabe claimed he was sorry for what he did, but he was just sorry that he’d been unsuccessful and gotten his ass beat. Blaise was the same way. “NO! Fuck you, Blaise. Get the hell away from me. I don’t care what excuse you have. I don’t care what you have to say. I mean it.”

“Danielle isn’t my girlfriend. It’s a long story. I’ll tell you everything. Just listen.”

She gripped her scalp. “I’ve never been this upset in my life.” She took a deep breath. “I don’t want to listen to you.” Her voice was high and hysterical, her emotion and desperation escaping her lips. She hated how she was acting. “Please leave me alone. You and I both belong elsewhere.” She opened the door but he slammed it closed again.

“No, you will listen to me.” He grabbed her arms and pinned her to the door.

“Don’t touch me!”

He moved his hands to the door. “Alexandra—”

She moved under his arm and escaped to the sidewalk. “Your lies may work on your other girls but they don’t work on me. Just drop it.” She ran down the sidewalk but he chased after her.

“I’m not letting you get away.”

She sprinted into the crowd and ran for her life. She wasn’t sure where she was going but she had to get away from him. People glanced at her with worried expressions as she passed. When she thought she would get away, Blaise cut her off. He dragged her between two buildings and pinned her to the wall.

“Let me go!”

He held her firmly. “I’ll release you when you calm down.”

She squirmed under his grasp.

“I have all day.”

When she tried to knee him, he pushed his body against her.

The sensation was too similar. The night of the party came back to her mind. Gabe pinned her to the truck, holding her back. She was unable to get away. The trauma clouded her mind and she started to sob uncontrollably. Gabe’s hands grabbed her, ripping away her clothes. Her heart almost exploded from the adrenaline.

Blaise’s eyes widened and he released her.

Alexandra fell to the ground and hugged her knees, becoming as small as possible. She concentrated on her breathing, trying to return to calm.
