“It is when you end up bleeding in a room meant for torture surrounded by idiots!” I snap at her as I gesture around the room, full of weapons and her blood.
She rolls her eyes but doesn’t respond.
“Hold on, what do you mean you were curious?” Rick asks, taking a step towards us. Leave it to Rick to pick apart our conversation.
I glare at her, but she says nothing.
“Jade let Spencer take her because she was curious.” I tell him.
“What?” Spencer says. I can hear him rustling as he gets to his feet finally. “No, she didn’t let me.” He says as he walks over to join us, outrage clear in his voice at the mere suggestion that he wasn’t the one in control here.
“Um, yes, actually I did.” She tells him with a pointed look. He opens his mouth to argue, but she cuts him off before he can. “I saw you around the corner even before Rick had pulled away. I could have easily broken your arm when you stabbed me with that fucking needle, not to mention all the other ways I could have stopped you. And I easily got out of that chair. I could have done that any time.” She says, ticking each thing off on her finger as she goes.
I watch as Spencer digests what she just said, seeing the moment he realizes the truth in her words.
“Wh... Why would you do that?” Spencer asks with a perplexed look on his face.
“I wanted to know what you wanted and what you were up to.” She tells him with a shrug.
“You wanted to know what I was up to enough that you let me drug you and put you in the trunk, taking you somewhere unknown, to do god knows what with you?” He asks, his voice rising in volume until he’s shouting at her as he waves his hands around in a frustrated manner.
Jade simply nods.
“Okay, enough,” Rick says as he walks between the two of them, ending their stare-down and their argument all at once.
“Jade, you need to get that leg looked at; you're still bleeding.” He tells her in a voice much softer than it usually is with anyone else.
She looks down at her leg, and the rest of us do as well.
Fuck, I forgot she was bleeding.
“Take your ass to my office and get that taken care of while I handle this, Jade.” I tell her in a no-nonsense tone that usually has people falling in line.
Not Jade, though. She just waves me off as though it’s no big deal.
Does she ever take anything seriously?
“Jade, so help me if you don’t go handle it. I will throw you over my shoulder and do it myself.” I tell her hoping to force her to cooperate.
It does the opposite. Instead, she cocks an eyebrow at me and gives me a smirk. “Don’t threaten me with a good time, Daddy.” She says, her voice low and suggestive in a way that goes straight to my cock.
Fuck.
“Was it worth it?” Zanders' cold tone draws our attention back to him before I can respond.
Spencer at least has the decency to look ashamed, but he doesn’t look away from Zander’s stern gaze.
“No.” He answers, his voice serious, though he offers no further explanation. For a minute, we're all quiet, and I wait for Zander to demand more, but he doesn’t.
“What happened to your leg, Jade?” Rick finally asks the question I’m sure is on everyone's mind.
Spencer said he didn’t hurt her and didn’t seem like he was lying, but what happened if he didn’t do it?
She doesn’t answer, and neither does Spencer.
“She fucking stabbed herself.” Jamerson finally speaks up, reminding us he’s still there, and once again, I find myself glaring at her.
“I was proving a point, don’t look at me like that. He,” she points at Spencer, but my eyes stay fixed on her, “needed to know that he couldn’t just threaten me into telling him whatever his little heart desired.”
