“You must like me enough to suck the cum off my fingers.” His smirk grows, and a shiver dances down my spine.

I can suddenly remember the taste of his cum in my mouth.

On instinct, I slap him across the face. His head refuses to move with my hand, and my fingers pulse with pain. Not a single memory comes to mind. I want to ask what the fuck we did, but I trust him. Deep inside, I know he didn’t touch me. Yet, it doesn’t explain how I know what his cum tastes like.

His eyes dance, wanting me to ask, but I’m too proud.

“Do you hate me now?” Fin questions. It almost sounds like a dare.

My skin itches. Not because I know I tasted his cum and must have enjoyed it—I don’t do anything I don’t want—but because he protected me. When I tried to hurt him, he still helped me.

His anger radiates off him in waves, but it’s not directed at me. Only now, I’m able to differentiate his emotions.

His eyes blaze hotter, his large frame able to squish me at any moment. But he won’t. I’m safer here with him than anywhere else.

“You have to work harder to make me hate you,” I answer.

He laughs, and I’m left confused once again. “It’s you who wants me to hate you. Not the other way around.” He steps away, turning his back on me.

“Get fucking dressed, unless you actually want me to fuck you this time,” Fin demands.

Chapter 13

Luna

EachsecondthatFinkeeps me prisoner for my “safety,” I lose my mind a little more. Currently, I’m sharpening my knife and thinking of all the ways I could stab him. I’m not very good with a knife, but I bet I could get one good jab in.

“It’s been days. You can’t keep us locked away forever.” I check my knife, and it cuts through the first layer of skin better than a razor would. “I’ve been doing a man’s job since I grew boobs. It’s unfair to strip me of my life only because you feel the need to show your masculinity by protecting me. I don’t need protection. I’ve done a good job keeping myself alive all these years.”

“I realize this. The door is there. I’ll let your family know you plan to stay with them,” he answers, calling my bluff. I go back to inspecting my knife, deciding where I should try to cut him first. He distracts me by talking, and I slice a small section of my finger. “Your sister Gia’s engagement party is next week.”

I jump up. “What? How the hell do you know before I do?” I breathe deeply, worried I’ll black out because of my rage and find his dead body when I come to.

I would do anything for my sisters. It hurts that Gia didn’t call me. It’s like Fin has taken over my life and is my gate keeper. I roll the handle of my knife in my fingers. I just need to get one good poke in.

“Hold up, tiger. Your brother mentioned it last night when we talked. Your sister is calling you today.”

My eyes widen, and my lips purse at the sound of another horribly failed nickname. “If I stay here for another twenty-four hours, I will kill you in your sleep.”

“Am I interrupting something?” My brother walks in with no trouble. You would think I could leave at any moment. Wrong. I have nowhere to go, and everyone knows it. His baby is held in his arms, and I need a distraction. I place my knife on the table and reach for my nephew, then cradle his little body.

“Why are you here?” The baby startles, hearing my voice, and looks up at me. He wails at the top of his lungs, seeing my smiling face.

Effortlessly, Fin takes the baby from me, and he stops crying. I’m livid. Fin has definitely taken over my life. He has stolen everything good about my world and ruined it. This is why I never had plans to be a wife. Girls have always gushed about how wonderful it is. But it’s a way to control women. You go from under your father’s roof to your husband’s. And shit likethishappens. I went from having all the freedoms in the world to them being stolen away. And that’s only with a stupid bodyguard who thinks he knows more than me.

“Luca, you know you have always been my favorite brother,” I say sweetly. He snorts, since he’s my only brother. “You need to tell Fin I do not need him as a bodyguard,” I continue in my sugary voice, but my jaw is strained. “I’ve never needed one before, and nothing has happened for me to need one now.”

Luca has always been my number one supporter. “Fin thinks otherwise,” he replies, looking at the asshole. I can’t catch the meaning behind the look, but it’s gone before I can analyze it any further.

“Why is Fin making the decision?” I ask suspiciously.

“Luna, the baby has been up for forty hours straight. I can’t think clearly right now. I thought you would want to see your nephew, and it worked well for me to give Aly some time to sleep. Let’s revisit this at the engagement party, when I’ve had at least three hours of shuteye.”

I only notice the dark circles under his eyes now. “You promise?”

“Yes.”

“And you will be fair?”
