She smiles. “Others, yes. But I wouldn’t try to kill you.”
I smirk even though I know she doesn’t know what she’s talking about. I’m not her friend. I’m just as dangerous as the rest of my family. Just because I kept her alive for a few days doesn’t make me a saint. I’m a monster, like everyone else. I might even be worse because I’m the devil who hides behind his charms.
“Anything else happen?” I probe.
I feel the anger rising to the surface. H
er eyes look like she is about to rip someone’s head off, and her body is flush with rage.
“It wasn’t just your father. It was your brother, too. He raped me. I thought he was like you. I thought, deep down, he cared and would never do anything to really hurt me.” I see the tears welling up in her eyes. “But I was wrong. He’s just as vile as your father; he just didn’t have the balls to try to break me himself. He let his father do all the dirty work.”
I take her hand and interlock my fingers with hers, letting her think that I would never be as awful as either my father or brother.
She exhales deeply when I hold her hand. “I hate him. He’s a monster,” she says, thinking back to what Arlo did to her.
But there is something other than hate in her eyes. Lust. As much as she hates Arlo, she still enjoyed herself. She still wants him to fuck her again.
I smile. “And what do you think of me?”
Nina looks at me with the same glimmer of lust still in her eyes. “I have some hope that you are a better man than your father or brother.”
I laugh. “Well, that’s not hard to do. My brother is an idiot, and my father is the devil.”
“Why did you save me?”
I sigh and then move closer to her. Our eyes are locked, and our lips are millimeters from touching. “What kind of monster wouldn’t save a gorgeous girl like you?”
She closes the gap whether intentionally or unintentionally. Her lips press against mine. Her breathing is still heavy and labored, so I know I can’t let the kiss last long. But her lips are so soft and plump that I don’t want the kiss to ever end. The second our lips touch, a spell comes over me, and I become just as obsessed with her as my brother is.
I stop the kiss when I hear the tiniest wheeze in her throat. I sit back up and let her breathe as I cherish the kiss.
“What was that for?” I ask.
She sinks back into the bed, her eyes closing from the exhaustion again. It’s amazing that she was even able to stay awake this long. It’s going to take weeks for her to heal enough to leave this room. I’ll have her in my bed for weeks. I’ll become her friend, her confidant, and maybe even her lover. She’ll be mine if I want before Arlo even has a chance to change his mind.
“Because you saved me and I wanted to,” she says, opening her eyes for one more second. And then her heavy eyelids quickly fall, and she drifts back off to sleep.
I lean forward and kiss her forehead, needing more of her scent. Nina Young, what are you doing to me?
I watch her sleep. I won’t leave her alone for a second. Not now. Not ever.
I won’t let anyone else hurt her. I’m the only one who will get her pain.

Nina
I want to kill Enrico.
That’s the main focus of all my dreams. Finding a way to kill Enrico before he touches me again. I’ve never felt such pain before. And I made a promise to myself with every lash of the whip, every bruise and broken rib that formed from his beatings, and every rip from his cock tearing me wide open that I would do everything I could before letting that happen again.
Even kill myself.
I can’t go through that again.
Not even for Heath and Eden.
I have a new obsession, and right now, it’s finding the most painful way to end their father’s life.
