I grin as my big, strong boyfriend wraps a hand around her thin throat. A choker stopping her from making any further movement.

“What does that make you,” he whispers in her ear. “If you’re owned by my pet?” He cocks a gun to her temple. “The pet’s toy,” he concludes.

Sam misleads people in the best way. He’s enormous, he’s scary, and we expect him to be loud. No, he’s silent as a mouse, creeps in without a sound, and he got through the door without Rose hearing a thing. She was too focused on spiting me.

I’m no mind reader, but Rose’s thoughts are loud enough. It’s a big, loudfuck.

SAM

Do It for Me– Rosenfeld

She stills against my body. Rose is always cold, and as usual, I feel my hot skin needing to warm her up.

“I’ll take that,” Lik chuckles as he grabs my emergency gun from her hands. She doesn’t say a thing, and I don’t let go of her.

Lilac, violet, and geranium. Her perfume attacks my personal space. She’s had the same one since we were kids, and it pisses me off that she never changed it. It’s too sweet for her, childish, and always hides the fact that she’s a White. Just like her brothers, she’s got psychopathic tendencies that double as a god complex. That perfume just doesn’t fit.

Keeping silent, my eyes take in the state Lik is in. I could ignore the slight tremble in his shoulders and the sweat on his neck. But I would have to be blind to not see the blood dripping down from his ear, the bloody graze makes it look like his earlobe is missing.

I press my gun harder against Rose’s temple and she inhales a shaky breath. My hand tightens around her throat. It’s so large, I can practically wrap it all around her slender neck. I can feel how big of a struggle it is for her to breathe right now, with my index finger skimming under her chin and my little finger almost touching her collarbone.

I don’t know what to say, hence why I’m keeping silent. Thoughts are running through my head, fury at how bold she is. Fear for Lik.

There are a thousand sentences I could start with right now.

Did you really think you’d get out of this?

How dare you threaten the life of the man I love?

Why does your body against mine feel so good?

I push the last thought away and tighten my hold again. She coughs, and her hands shoot to my forearm.

“Don’t move,” I hiss in her ear.

“I c-can’t…b-breathe,” she coughs again. Her chest is heaving, her shoulders shaking against my diaphragm.

“Good,” I simply answer. “You don’t deserve to.”

“Sam,” Lik hesitates, sensing my rage. “She’s kinda turning purple.”

I don’t care. I don’t care. I don’t care.

She starts convulsing against me and weakly attempts to step on my foot.

“Sam,” Lik insists. He takes a step closer, and it only makes me press harder.

I could just end it now and she would never bring me any problems, ever again. I wouldn’t have to think so hard about how to behave around her. On how to tell Nate how much I love her. I wouldn’t have to battle hate and lust. She would just begone.

“You’re fucking killing her, and you need her,” Lik shouts at me, annoyed. “What’s a fucking bit of earlobe, I’ll put my earring on the other side…Sam!”

His last word comes when she stops moving against me altogether. I let go, take a step back as if her skin was suddenly burning me, and she drops at my feet. Unconscious.

“Sam…what the fuck!” Lik barks.

“Don’t start, Malik.” My voice is calm, but using his full name makes him drop his attitude.
