She wanted to bite Gabriel, but from years of them doing this, he knew how to hold his hand so she couldn’t bite him.
Bastard.
“Of course she is. This stays between us.”
“Of course.”
Gabriel dragged her out of the room, and she tried to fight him, but he wouldn’t let her go.
They got on the elevator and still his hand covered her mouth.
She watched them descend to the parking lot. Still, he kept hold of her without saying a word. Time was passing, and she was getting angrier as they got to the car.
He only let her go to shove her into his car. He slammed the door closed, locking it so she couldn’t get out.
She waited for him to climb in the other side and put on a seatbelt.
He pulled out of the parking lot, and they were driving.
“What the hell?” she finally asked.
“You shouldn’t have gone there, Emma. Do you have a death wish?”
“You just agreed for me and Gideon to get married. Why should I even listen to you?”
“He would have killed you. Fuck!”
“Just stop the car. I want to get out and walk. I don’t want to be anywhere near you. Stop the fucking car.”
“No!” Gabriel pressed his foot to the gas and took off.
She was pissed. “I’m not going to be threatened by him, Gabriel. I’m not going to do it.”
“Maddox Denton is a crazy fuck.”
“Takes one to know one, right?”
“As punishment he had Gideon beaten.”
“Don’t even try to pretend that you give a shit about him.”
“I don’t. The only reason I care at all is because you love him.”
This made her pause. “No, I don’t.”
“Okay, Emma, you don’t love him now for whatever reason, but soon, you’re going to fall for him, and when you do, that’s when it’s going to matter to you.”
She sat back against her seat, arms folded. She wished she could deny it, but there was nothing she could say or do that could change his mind.
“I’m not marrying Gideon.”
“Yes, you are. I don’t give a fuck how much you ‘don’t love’ him right now. I saw the look in your eye when you were trying to protect him. Whether you like it or not, you’re marrying him. That’s where we’re going now. You, Gideon, and myself are making sure you’re both married by the end of the day.”
“This is crazy.”
“No, it’s not. This is fucking survival, and you seem to think you’re playing with little fishes here. Guess what? You’re not. Maddox Denton will kill you. He’d kill anyone who stood in his way.”
“He doesn’t scare me.”
