Page 49 of Vow of Hate

“Surprising me again with your sass. I never knew you had it in you.”

I hold my hand out. “Give me my book back. Go spend time with Anna.”

“I told you to go to your room.”

“I’m done listening to you. You don’t get to boss me around. So go.”

“This is my home. You’re my prisoner.” The vein in his forehead pops. His breathing intensifies. I’m not sure if he’s going to kill me or kiss me.

And speaking of kissing…

“You kissed her. Anna.”

“So?”

“So… why haven’t you ever kissed me? You put your mouth between my legs but not my lips. Why?”

His smile is full of lust. “I did kiss your lips. Your pussy lips.”

“That’s not what I meant and you know that,” I say with a flush. “Why haven’t you kissed me on my mouth yet?”

He leans over me and I have no choice but to lean back in the seat. “Do you want me to kiss you?”

“I still haven’t asked you to touch me.”

“No. But you want it, don’t you? I can tell. Are you dripping wet for me under those panties I so kindly bought for you?”

A flare of arousal washes through me and I hate that Dante is right. “You don’t know anything about me.”

“And you don’t know anything about me. But I can tell you’re aroused. Do you want me to put my mouth on your little cunt again?”

“No,” I say with as much firmness as I can muster.

He quirks an eyebrow. “Are you lying to me, Sienna?”

“Are you lying to me?”

“About what?”

“Why did you bring Anna here? What game are you playing?”

“I’ve brought tons of women back to my home to fuck before. It’s nothing unusual.”

“But I’ve never been here before. You weren’t holding a woman captive in your home when you brought those women around. So why now?”

He shrugs. “Why not? It’s more fun this way.”

“For who?”

“For me.”

“Never for me,” I murmur.

His eyes flick down to my lips and back to my eyes. “Why would you think I’d ever kiss you? You’re my prisoner. Not my wife. I do not have feelings for you, Sienna.”

“So then why do you want me so much? Just to hurt Gabriel?”

“Yes. I will not let him control me.”
