“I’m good with that.”
“W-what?”
“I don’t care as long as there’s a resemblance.” He runs his fingers through my hair. “What’s it going to be, Butterfly? Take her place or should I call her back?”
“If you do that, I’ll go fuck Aiden.”
He laughs, but there’s no humour behind it as he tugs on my hair. “We both know you won’t do that.”
“Do you want a video this time?”
He pulls me from the door and throws me on the bed. My gasp invades the air when my back hits the soft mattress. I swallow as I get caught in his darkened eyes.
This is the side of Cole he allows no one to see. The side where he’s ready to finish lives while he’s smiling.
He reaches into a drawer by the bed and retrieves several ropes. My eyes widen. Does Ronan allow him to keep things like that in his house?
“Her or you?”
I lift my chin. “She must be already gone.”
“She’ll come back with a simple text. What’s it going to be, Silver?”
“Do you fuck them after you tie them up?” My voice trembles at the end, and I hate myself for it. I hate myself for asking the question I’ve been wondering about since the day I saw that picture on his phone.
He raises a brow. “You can find out after I tie you up.”
“No.”
“No?”
“You can’t fuck me. You can just look at me and wish you had me, but you can’t fuck me.” I won’t be one of his others. I’ll be me. The one he can’t have no matter how much he wishes to.
“I don’t agree to that.” Cole approaches me.
“It’s my deal or no deal.”
“You’re going to regret that, Butterfly.”
“We’ll see about that.”
“Remove the dress,” he orders.
“You’re not going to fuck me, so no.”
He narrows his eyes, but he quickly masks it. “Very well, Silver. Let’s do it your way.”
Yes, my way.
Power buzzes through me like a high. I lie on the bed, and even though I feel a sense of control, I can’t help thinking it’s a fake one.
No. I am in control. We’re doing it my way.
Cole parts my legs and secures them to the poles of the bed. The feel of his fingers against my skin is like lava. The ropes dig into my skin so I test them by wiggling my toes; they tighten around my flesh. He moves to my hands, and when I’m spread-eagled, I realise the mistake I’ve made.
I’ve left myself under his control, where he can revoke the stakes on me. Where he can decide to never untie me.
Trying not to freak out, I speak in my most composed tone, “Now what?”
