“Do you work with one of the gangs in the city?” Blue Eyes asks coolly.
I just stare back at him.
“Answer his fucking question!” Green Eyes snaps, giving into his anger even more. He’s clearly pissed off, and he takes a step closer to me, getting in my face.
I try to mimic Blue Eyes’ neutrality, just staring right back at him and keeping my mouth shut.
Blue Eyes watches it all, staying where he is with that same look on his face. It’s like he doesn’t even care what’s happening, although I can tell he’s taking it all in.
“Look at me,” Green Eyes growls, and I do, staring defiantly into those bright jade colored eyes. “I haven’t killed you yet because we want answers. But if you’re not going to tell us anything, then you’re no use to us.”
It’s almost an echo of what I told the guy I killed outside their club, and I laugh in spite of myself, amused at how the tables have turned in such a short time.
Something flickers across Blue Eyes’ features. It looks almost like surprise, but it doesn’t do anything to really shake that stone-faced thing he’s got going on.
Green Eyes has no problem showing his feelings, though. The anger is right there on his face, and he leans in close enough that I can feel the heat of his breath fanning across my skin. His eyes trace over my body, lingering on the cleavage the dress shows off. I almost forgot what I’m wearing—that I’m still dressed like a damn club bunny.
He lifts a hand and settles it along the curve of my jaw, brandishing the gun he stole from me in his other hand. The barrel of it is cold as he traces it down from my throat to my chest, skimming it over the fullness of my tits.
“I’ll give you a day,” he says in a low, husky tone. “So you can think it over and decide what you want to do here. I’m not a patient man, and I protect what’s mine. I need to know if you’re a threat to my club and therefore to my brothers.”
The threat is clear in his voice. This is the part where he probably expects me to spill my guts and tell him what he wants to hear. He can probably feel the way my pulse speeds up just a bit when he runs that gun over my skin, but I still don’t give in.
Instead, I just keep my mouth shut and watch him.
He lets his hand linger on my jaw for a second longer and then steps back, jerking his head at Blue Eyes. The two of them head back up the stairs and shut the door, plunging the basement or whatever this is back into darkness.
As soon as they’re gone, I slump back against the wall, letting out a low breath. I rotate my wrists in the shackles and jerk against the chains that hold them, testing to see how much leeway I have.
Unfortunately, the restraints are well done, and I don’t have anywhere to go. The chains are bolted into the wall, and it would take someone stronger than me to bust them out. The shackles are pretty tight on my wrists, and I won’t be getting out of them easily.
These guys clearly know what they’re doing. They’re serious, and they mean business. When Green Eyes said he’d give me a day, he meant it.
And that doesn’t bode well for me at all.
