Everything.

All to save my sister and to stop him from trying to kill her a second time.

Oh, God.

Tears roll down my cheeks, and I can’t keep them at bay anymore. The thought of being locked up in there, in that heartless, freezing room makes me sob like never before. But it was the only solution, the only choice I could make.

“You’ll stop fighting. Stop trying to escape. Stop trying to kill me,” he says.

I close my eyes and let more tears tumble to the ground. Even if I did try, I could never win.

He won’t let me.

“Say it,” he growls. “Say it out loud.”

This time, it’s my turn to save someone.

I’m the big sister.

Jill protected me from Luca. Now it’s my turn to protect her from Liam.

But damn, it doesn’t make this easy.

“I’ll stop fighting. I won’t run. I won’t kill you.”

“You will stay with me for the rest of your life,” he says. “I wanna hear you say it.”

My body.

My soul.

The only things keeping him from murdering her.

A heavy price to pay for her life.

But worth it.

“I’ll stay. Forever.”

I shiver on the ground, burying my face in my hands so I don’t have to share my tears. Because even if I just gave myself to him, these tears are mine and mine alone. In them, I find power. Resilience. Restraint.

If it saves my sister, I’ll do it, no matter how harshly he treats me.

I can take it.

I’m strong.

I’m a Baas.

I’m…

His.
