I get it.

Why would anyone ever choose to end up like my mother? Lost and lonely, always waiting for someone who will never come. Haunted by the memories of a life you once cherished. When does it all fall apart? Because if each of us knew the exact moment of impact, would we willingly pursue? Would we still choose to fall for someone knowing, one day, it was all going to fade away?

Noa’s eyes catch on something behind me, and the look of sheer shock is what has me turning around.

There stands Zoe, charm fixed on her gorgeous face, as she leans against the wall, staring up at some guy who appears to be fixated on her.

That little shit.

If we weren’t in a room full of witnesses, I’d fucking ring his neck in front of her before throwing her down on top of his body and fucking her ass.

She’s trying to prove her point, send me a message in a room full of people. If that’s what she wants, then game-fucking-on. I’m going to unleash on her.

He reaches out and touches her arm. She smiles up at him, the sight stabbing me square in the chest.

My fists clench at my sides, and I imagine all the ways I could punish her right now, not giving a shit about where we are or who’s watching.

She’s being such a dirty brat, and punishing a brat like her gets me so hard.

I can hear Noa calling after me, but his voice sounds distant as I stride across the room. It’s as if the crowd effortlessly splits apart, creating a clear path for me to break up this little get-together by shoving myself in between them.

Giving my back to the asshole, I tower over Zoe. “We need to talk.”

She watches me carefully, her smile fading away. “Can it wait?”

My palms burn with the need to spank her. Bend her over my knee right here in front of everyone and teach her an important lesson.

“No, it can’t,” I hiss right before grabbing her arm and walking us into a room three feet away.

Shoving her inside, I lock the door and lean up against it, trying to calm the monster raging inside me.

“What is it you’re trying to accomplish here? You want to piss me off? Get a rise out of me because I told you not to do something?”

“I don’t want anything from you,” she yells.

Zoe marches over to me, getting right up in my face with no care or hesitation whatsoever. She’s so fierce, I want to pull her into a bruising kiss, fill her so deep that by the time she leaves this room, she’s wobbling with no thought left in her mind but the way my cock feels buried deep inside her.

“That’s not true. Stop hiding from me.”

“Stay away from me.”

“I can’t,” I finally say.

Zoe closes her eyes. “Stop talking. Stop…just stop. Let me go, Dom.”

“When are you going to realize I’m not going anywhere?”

“I don’t care.”

Grabbing her waist, I switch our positions in seconds. Hearing her back thud against the door, I pin my body against hers.

“Say that again. I fucking dare you.”

This is a battle for control, internally with ourselves and with one another.

“I don’t care about you or your opinions or what you think we are. You don’t own me.” Zoe leans in, our noses touching as she grits out every single word as if I’m slow to understand.

Wrapping my hand around her throat, I firmly hold her jaw in place and lift up her chin. Her breath hitches, but her gaze does not falter as we remain locked in a storm of forbidden longing—a battle between restraint and surrender, hate and love. I find myself unwilling to loosen the hold, even though I should.
