‘I’d get your drunk fucking ass out of here before I cut your dick off.’ Alec’s fists bunched at his sides as he moved forward, making the guys step back.
‘What do you care? We’ll pay her well enough if she takes all seven of us.’
I shrank back against the wall, pulling my hoody down lower over my thighs. Sweat pricked at the base of my spine as I looked for another way out. There wasn’t one.
‘Last warning,’ Alec said, his fingers slipping into his back pocket. ‘Is it a fight worth dying for?’
The ringleader laughed. ‘Alright hard man, do you really think you can take all of us and come out on top?’
Alec drew the knife from his pocket and held it out at his side, the blade flicking forward with a snap that drew more than one set of eyes.
‘Fuck this,’ one of them said, holding his hands up and retreating from the alley, quickly followed by another.
‘I’m not getting killed for some pussy mate, let’s go.’ One of the others grabbed the blood covered idiot by the arm and tried to pull him away from us.
‘He’s all talk. He’s not going to stab me.’ He looked a lot less cocksure than he had a few minutes prior.
I stepped forward, lifting my head and feigning a confidence I absolutely didn’t feel.
‘The last guy who touched me without my permission had his throat split in two with that very knife. He wouldn’t hesitate to send you to hell right along with him.’
He narrowed his eyes, looking from me to Alec and back to me. ‘I don’t believe you.’
Then Alec was on him, knocking him to the floor as he squealed. He dragged up the guy’s bloodied shirt and set his knife to his skin. Blood seeped from the spot where he sliced the point into his pale flesh.
Alec stuffed a hand over the guy’s mouth as his friends stared wide eyed. Even his friends weren’t willing to defend him. I really hoped Alec didn’t intend to gut him. He was a dick, but I didn’t need anyone else dying.
Within a few seconds, Alec stood, wiping the bloodied knife on the man’s shirt. I looked at the red coated skin and raised my eyebrows. Alec had scored a great bit cock and balls into the guy’s lower stomach.
‘Thank your lucky stars it’s only skin deep. Now whenever you go around trying to force yourself on women, hopefully you’ll think better of it.’
One of the other guys took his phone out and tried to take a photo of Alec, yelping when Alec strode over to him and snatched up the phone. ‘What’s the code?’
The man stammered, but didn’t answer.
Alec grinned at him. ‘I can take your pin code or your thumb. Your choice.’
‘Eight-zero-zero-eight.’
‘Like boob? How fucking mature.’ Alec typed it in to test it. The home screen popped up, and he pocketed the phone.
‘Get him cleaned up and back in his hotel. Try the police and I’ll come after anyone on your phone who means anything to you.’
With that, Alec grabbed my hand and took me back to our hotel.
‘I’m sorry you had to see that side of me,’ he said, not meeting my eyes.
‘Hey,’ I said, slowing down and pulling him toward me so that we were face to face, forehead touching. ‘That side of you doesn’t scare me off. You make me feel safe. Protected. I wouldn’t change it.’
He closed his eyes and inhaled shakily. ‘You’re perfect Esther. So fucking perfect.’
The kiss he gave me was tender and chaste, so unlike the ones usually filled with blistering heat. So sweet that it made my insides turn to jelly.
I was falling for him. Too hard.
And it was going to break me to go home and never be able to explore what could be.
But I had to go.
