Just as I grab the black cherry White Claw, I feel two arms on either side of me as he bends forward, blocking me between the counter and him. “You know,” he whispers in my ear, “I followed you in here to check how you were feeling after what I saw earlier. I was worried for you.” I feel his breath on my neck when he asks, “Are you okay?”
I nod, not answering anything. We might be alone in the kitchen, but I want to play by the rules.
I always play by the rules.
“I’m not sure I like this game,” he says low. “But I do have to admit I would love to see your mouth taped. I’d play with you and watch the way it holds your moans down.”
A shiver I can’t control courses through my body, and I bite my lower lip to stop myself from saying anything.
“I’m gonna need you to pass on a message to your ex-boyfriend from me.” He pauses for a split second, pressing himself closer to me. He lifts one of his hands from the kitchen marble and slides it against my waist, my stomach, and keeps going lower until it touches my thigh. He stops then, going back up but under my skirt this time.
“If he ever puts himself between you and me again, I will set him on fire.”
I gasp when his fingers brush my panties. The slightest touch, right where my clit is.
“I really hate privileged Stoneview girls, Alex. Did you know that?”
From what I’ve heard from everyone around me, he hateseverything, so I’m not surprised I’m on the list.
“I hate how you all behave as if all things belong to you, like you’re more important than everyone, like you’re better than us.”
His lips are right by my ear, his breath bringing goosebumps to my skin. Then he’s tracing a line down my neck, barely even grazing my skin with his. His smell envelops me, and my hands come to grip the counter. I want to lean back against him and lose myself in his embrace. I want to grab his hand and press it again between my legs.
“I don’t fucking understand why I don’t feel that way toward you,” he growls against my skin. I feel his teeth grazing my neck and a ragged breath escapes me. “You’re a little miss know-it-all who constantly needs rescuing and lives in a fairy tale.” Gently, he pushes my panties to the side and presses two fingers against my clit. “You’re so fucking innocent.” He slowly starts circling.
A moan escapes me, and I buck my hips forward, wanting more pressure.
“So why is it that all I want to do is wrap you in my arms and protect the fuck out of you, so the only person who can hurt you is me.”
Another slow circle melts everything inside me.
“I’ll hurt you so fucking good, cupcake. Would you like that?”
“Yes,” I moan.
There’s a low chuckle in my ear, the sound surprising from him even though it has no humor in it.
“You lost your game, Alex. Don’t you care anymore?”
I shake my head. “I don’t care,” I pant. “Just keep go—”
My pleasure is cut short by the door slamming open. I jump away from Xi as Harper walks in.
“Where’s my drink, sl—”
Her smile drops.
I open my mouth to say something, before remembering I’m not meant to talk. I shake my head instead, as if saying this is not what she thinks.
There’s no point. Her eyes dart to what I’m assuming are my flushed cheeks and disheveled state and then to Xi’s tented cargo pants.
Instead of a furious shriek, telling me off, or slapping me in the face, she smiles at me. That sickly, dangerous smile Stoneview girls like her can give before stabbing someone.
“Xi,” she says before flipping her hair back. “Can I talk to you for a second?”
