Fuck!
What the hell am I doing?
Smashing my thumb against the button, Ily flopped into suffocating stillness.
Soaring upward, my chair fell back with a loud clang as I dropped to my haunches and dragged her into my arms.
She moaned but didn’t fight.
She flinched but didn’t push me away.
Her head lolled over my arm and her hair stuck to her finger-painted cheek.
My voice was inhuman. “Are you oka—”
“Kneel, Ily,” Victor commanded. “Don’t sprawl over your Master. Kneel.”
A twisting in my gut.
A snarling in my soul.
I loosened my hold on her just a little. I’d kill her if I didn’t. I’d crush her. Suffocate her with how much I wanted to save her.
Gritting her teeth, she raised her head and embraced the fight that would be my fucking downfall.
Her tear-twinkling stare locked on Victor’s. “I know how I’m going to kill you now. I’m going to electrify you until you choke on your own tongue.”
“Charming,” Victor drawled. “I appreciate your strength, my pet, but I’m unimpressed by your intelligence. I’ve gone over the rules with you. The time to test them is never.”
“Rules?” I asked as Ily slowly removed herself from my hold and crawled away. She didn’t stop until the leash stretched to its limit, tugging on my fingers, stopping her from going any farther.
She shot me a glower, unable to hide what truly lurked within her.
Fear.
Christ, I could smell it from here.
It tickled the back of my nose.
It soaked into the marrow of my bones.
It fucked me off that she gave such terror away to everyone watching. I wanted to hoard it. To draw out her horror just for me.
Merde, stop.
You’ve been fighting this your entire life.
Do. Not. Give. In.
I fisted the leash, sending vibrations to her collar.
Her golden eyes met mine. They narrowed. They burned.
I might not have done anything to earn her fear yet, but I had earned her loathing.
And it turned me on and scrambled me up because despite her hatred of me, I’d made her wet. She’d been wet as I strapped her down on that table, spread her legs, and—
God’s sake, stop!
