My stomach clenches and the pain is too much.
“No, no, no, no ,no!” I twist and turn and the ropes burn me but I can’t help it. My body is in knots and I need them untwisted. I let out a loud bellow that echoes around the room and then I look back at Jax with a fury, “I hate you!”
“I’m sorry,” his husky voice growls.
“No! that’s not enough, it will never be enough. I want out of here,” I shake the bed, “I want away from you. I never want to see you again!”
He scoots his chair back clearly disturbed by my rage and heads to the door, but before he exits, he turns back and races back to me in three large steps, landing inches from my face.
“I won’t lose you again.” His breath is hot and full of determination, “And I won’t let anything happen to you!”
I squirm in anger as I hear him continue.
He stands and begins to pace, “That night, the first time I saw you, I saw how pure you were, how different, deserving of so many good things.” He walks to the window and I can’t help but pay attention to see if some sort of way to open it becomes visible.
“I knew you were too good for me and that I had to stay away, and I planned on it. But then, when I brought Danny home that night and we heard what your dad was doing to you,” his fist rises to his mouth like he wants to punch a wall again. “When I saw what he was doing to you, I couldn’t hold back. And then when your eyes finally met mine, I knew there was no going back. You drove a needle straight into my heart and tattooed your name there.”
He comes closer to the bed again and his hand begins to trace the side of my body, “and then you came to my house and it was so fucking hard, not to mold your little pussy to my dick. To claim you, make you mine. And then Danny…” his hand jerks back clearly in disgust with himself.
He walks back towards the door and I can’t decide if I want to panic or finally breathe.
“I kept my distance as long as I could firefly. I know you deserve better, you don’t deserve to be in my life, but fate keeps putting you right back in my arms. You are meant to be mine and I know you feel it too. There is no use fighting it anymore.”
He enters the code shielding it and the door opens, “get some rest. I’ll check on you in a bit.”
Trembles run through my body as he leaves and I shake in fury and confusion. I cry out again, a noise I hadn’t heard from myself since Danny was taken from me. A combustion of memories, thoughts and realizations flood me as I fight to stay angry towards this monster. I can’t help it though. All the scenes of our history play out like a movie in my head and I’m shocked.
Since the day he met me…
I thought he saw me as some foolish kid. A burden taking me in with my brother and then another burden reminding him of how he took my brother away.
He wants me…
My heart thumps harder at the thought and its vibrations pulse all the way down to my sex. The same fire I felt there the night before on the couch still lingers…and that pisses me off.
He’s crazy! I’m not a possession. It’s not normal to tie up someone you supposedly care about! This is not the way to keepmesafe.
Something is very wrong with this man.
I close my eyes and let my head fall back racking my brain for solutions, and all that comes to mind are those dark penetrating eyes.
A monster doesn’t reside in those eyes.
I see him pounding my father, I see him emerge from the shadows as I find the note, I feel his arms around me.
And I drift off to sleep again.
Chapter 22
Chalene
“Are you ready to talk?”
The room is dim again and I’m losing track of the hours. I remember falling asleep with some peace of mind but as I hear his voice coming in the room and my arms and ankles yank feeling the painful ropes again, rage rocks through me.
A low guttural noise erupts from my chest and it only seems to ignite him.
“It’s no use. I told you. I’m not losing you, and as long as you are determined to run away, you will stay like that,” his stance is strong as he stops by the bed, arms folded over his chest.
