When I don’t answer him, he reaches into the van and grabs hold of my ankle, pulling me toward him. “I asked you a question; I expect an answer.”

“Please?” I plead and I hate that I’m begging, but I don’t want Lance to be hurt anymore.

“No.” He snarls at me, disgust etched on his face as he stares at me. “I’ll do whatever the hell I want; I am in charge here.” He turns his head to the side. “Take her inside.” He grunts and within seconds, men are pulling at me as they try and take me from the van.

I scream, kick, and punch as the men lift me from the van. One man puts his arm around me and I clamp down on it, my teeth breaking through his skin. I’m doing everything I can to get these assholes off of me.

“You bitch.” The man whose arm I’ve just bitten growls as he releases me.

Before I’m able to react, I’m falling. My head bounces off the ground and I cry out. My vision blurs. I blink, trying to stay conscious. I can’t fall into the darkness.

I hear tutting and I glance up to see Havers standing over me with a scowl. “I’m going to break you. I’m going to do what my sister couldn’t. You’re going to obey me.”

“Sister?” I croak out; what the hell is he talking about?

He grins as the man that dropped me picks me up again. “Yes, sister. In fact, you know her pretty well. She tried her hardest to break you. It didn’t work though.”

My stomach drops at his words. “What?”

I’m carried into the building, the smell of tobacco and alcohol hit me as soon as I’m inside. We must be in a bar of some sorts. The walls are a dark red and there’s music thumping.

He chuckles. “Talia told me how great you were, just defiant, that no matter what she did she couldn’t break you fully.”

Oh God.

“How?” It’s the only thing I can think of saying. How are they related, surely I would have known?

We enter a room and I’m thrown to the floor. I quickly move my arm to try and stop my fall, but the pain is too much and I cry out.

“Reli?” Lance calls out and I sigh in relief, he’s here.

“You want to know how we’re related?” He chuckles ignoring Lance. “We have the same dad. Difference is, I stayed with my father while Talia’s mother hated everything our father was and kept her away from us. She has her mother’s surname; our father wasn’t on her birth certificate.”

I push myself up into a sitting position, my body protesting in pain at my movements. “What do you want from me?”

“You’re the reason my sister is in prison; I wanted you from the moment I saw you. Now though, now you’re going to be mine to own.”

I swallow back the fear of his words.

“You’re going to be my slave.” He grins and I glance at Lance, his eye is swollen, the cut to his eyebrow is bleeding profusely. His skin is pale and sweaty.

Havers walks over to me and grips his hand into my hair. “Are you going to be a good girl?”

I don’t answer him. There’s no way in hell I’ll ever let myself be abused the same way that Talia did. I have a feeling that Havers is going to be a hell of a lot worse than she was. The darkness in his eyes makes me shiver. If he has me, he’s not going to break me. He’s going to shatter me. There’ll be no coming back from it.

His fingers go underneath my chin and he tilts my head up so that I’m looking up at him. “Keep the defiance up, it’ll only make breaking you that much sweeter.”

“I won’t break. Nothing you can do to me will ever make me bow to you,” I vow and watch as his jaw clenches. “Talia never broke me.” She came close, so fucking close. “And neither will you.” I’m not sure how I manage to keep my voice even, deep down inside I’m petrified.

He throws his head back and laughs, “Oh, Yoreli.” The way my name rolls off his tongue makes me want to vomit; my entire body breaks out in goosebumps but not in a good way. “You have no idea what I can do.”

His hand goes to my hair and he fists in, pulling hard as he lifts me off the floor. Tears spring to my eyes but I don’t let them fall. I’m not going to let him see me cry. He doesn’t get that. “Go to hell,” I say through gritted teeth.

He pulls me closer to his body, we’re face to f

ace, his breath hot against my cheeks. “Oh baby, I’m already going there.” He chuckles as he glances down at my body before looking back at my face. “I’m going to have so much fun with you,” he whispers. I close my eyes as his tongue snakes out of his mouth and he licks my lips, then my cheeks.

I don’t cringe away from him, or make a sound, I just wait for him to be finished. I know from experience that if I were to react he’d just make it worse. Right now, he’s not hurting me but that could change at any moment.
