“How could you do that to me?”I’m practically spitting with anger.

“Do what?”he asks, his tone measured and rational.“Everything we did was just part of the games, Ava.All the submissives had to participate.”

“But you chose that!Rachel told me you did.You chose for me to fuck myself in front of a crowd!”I say accusingly.

“Would you have rather me signed you up as a saloon girl?”he demands.“Would you have preferred to suck other men’s cocks?”

“Yes!No!I don’t know,” I say miserably.“I just know I didn’t want that.I tried to tell you that, but you didn’t listen; you put me up there anyway, and you left me.You let someone whip me!”I feel my eyelids prick with tears of anger and hurt and humiliation, and I will them away.I will not let him see me cry!

“I made what I thought was the best choice given the options.I know you, Ava.You like a little pain.And you’re so damn responsive.You always come.”He looks utterly baffled by the fact that I didn’t.

“For you, Roman,” I say vehemently as a solitary, unwanted tear spills down my cheek.“I come for you.”

“Me, Emmett, Tony.What difference does it make?”

I can physically feel the air whoosh out of me as if he’d punched me in the gut.

“You don’t know anything about me,” I say quietly, my voice lethal.“Just stay away from me.”

He stands perfectly still, studying me intently.“I’m not sure exactly what happened in there, but we should talk about it and work it out.”

“I don’t want to talk about it,” I say woodenly.“I just want you to leave me the hell alone.”I look him in the eye.“I want you to go.Now.”

“You’re my submissive.And this is my suite.”

“Fine.Then I’ll leave,” I say resolutely, heading toward the door.I don’t know where I’ll go, but it hurts too much to be near Roman.His betrayal cuts me to the quick.I never should have allowed him to make me feel anything in the first place.I snort derisively.Not that I ever really had a choice.

“Ava, stop!”His authoritative tone stops me in my tracks.“I’ll leave tonight.But we’re going to talk about this tomorrow.”And with the soft click of the door closing behind him, I’m finally alone again, just like I’ve always been.
