“Acting? You think I’m acting right now? You are a filthy, disgusting pig. How fucking dare you offer me up for sale. Just who do you think you are?!” I exclaim.

Alexander extracts a small device from his jacket pocket and taps the screen. Richard’s voice comes floating around us, offering to purchase me. “We have him on tape, sweetheart, offering to commit an offence. He won’t be able to deny it now. I was never going to and will never sell you, Rebecca. I told you when I asked you to marry me that you are mine. No one else’s and you will be mine forever.” He leans down to kiss me, but I turn away.

“What’s wrong? You don’t believe what I just said to Richard, do you? You can’t seriously believe that I wanted to sell you to that poor excuse of a human. You’re forgetting that I protected you the other day from his men. I’ll do that again if anyone ever gets close enough to hurt you, my love.”

Tears prick at my eyes. “That wasn’t the plan, though, Alexander. We agreed we’d be a united front and yet you chose to do it that way instead.”

“I needed you to look shocked, sweetheart. If I’d told you what I was planning to do, your face would have given away that you didn’t believe what I was saying. This way he saw you had absolutely no idea what I was talking about. I suppose he will arrange a meeting with me soon to arrange the purchase and when he does, we can take him down once and for all.”

“I can’t believe you would do that to me. I won’t have you lie to me, Alexander, ever. I put honesty above everything else and that’s how this marriage will work. No secrets and no lies. You get me?” I glare at him, shooting daggers with my eyes.

He takes a step toward me and I back up. He reaches out as he closes the distance between us and grabs the tops of my arms, applying pressure. With a final step, his body presses firmly against my own.

“You want honesty? I’ll give you honesty, sweetheart. I want to fuck you senseless on the floor, right here, right now.” His voice is low and gravelly, desire lacing each of his words.

My eyes widen at his alpha bravado, my panties moisten with the flush of heat coming from the apex of my thighs. His eyes gleam at me as I press my knees together. He knows how he affects me when he talks this way to me. How his dominance affects me. And I know my spitfire attitude does the exact same thing to him. So, I defy him.

“No,” I state.

He arches a black eyebrow at me. “No?”

“You heard me, Black. I said no. I know you’re not used to being denied anything. But that’s what I’m doing. No, you won’tfuckme right here, right now.”

“Are you seriously denying me what is mine, Rebecca?” His voice lowers to a pitch I haven’t heard from him before, and another flush of heat wells below. Damn, he makes me hot.

I know what to do next. I have him so close to snapping. I lift my hand to my side and slowly lower the zip on my dress before seductively sliding the straps from my shoulders and letting the dress pool at my feet. Without breaking eye contact, I step out of it and bend slowly to retrieve it, ensuring the angle will give him an eyeful of my breasts spilling over the top of my bra. When I stand back up, his eyes are flaming blue orbs, like the hottest part of a flame. I arch an eyebrow back at him in challenge and run my hands over my hips.

“I don’t think this is yours anymore, Alexander. I can pay you the fifty million and purchase myself back from you,” I state boldly.

The last of his resolve snaps. His lips clash with mine fiercely in a bruising kiss. An undeniable hunger erupts from within him, and he ravages me. His hands roam my entire body, coming up to squeeze my nipples almost to the point of pain, and the sensation soars through me. I open my mouth in a pleasurable groan and his tongue dives in, brutally attacking my own. He pulls the lower half of my body to press firmly against his erection, ensuring that I know just how turned on he is.

“Don’t deny me, Rebecca. I need to be inside you now. I need to love you. Let me,” he demands.

“Say the magic words. Say them to me and I’m all yours,” I breathe.

His mouth captures mine again, except this kiss is soft and gentle. Pouring all his love for me into it so I know how he feels.

“I love you, sweetheart. Forever” he whispers against my lips.

“Then love me,” I reply softly. And he does, for the rest of the afternoon and well into the night.

~ Chapter Nineteen ~

Alexander

I can’t believe she thoughtI was truly offering her for sale. It broke my heart seeing the disbelief across her face. I mean, how does this woman still not know how much I love her? I had to think on my feet and I knew the only way to get him to confess his involvement was to offer him Rebecca. She is the one he wants. A snow bunny in his world. He took the bait, though, and he said all I wanted him to and I got it on tape. He will never have her though. No one other than me will ever have her. I won’t allow it.

She forgave me eventually and I spent the entire night showing her how much I love and worship her. At last count I think it was twelve orgasms in as many hours, so she was well and truly sated.

When she finally falls asleep, I go to the kitchen and make myself a sandwich and wash it down with two glasses of Macallan whiskey. On my way back to her, my phone rings. An unknown number is calling me at close to four in the morning. Not impressed with the hour I steel myself for some sort of bad news.

“Black.” I answer.

“Alexander, I wanted to let you know that someone has agreed to your fifty-million-pound price and will meet with you this evening in London to collect Rebecca. I’ll send you the location. Don’t be late.” Richard ends the call before I can reply.

I can’t believe someone agreed to those terms so quickly. Although, I spent that much on her myself. After all, I wiped a fifty-million-pound debt clean just so I could have her, and I’ve told her before that no amount of money would ever settle that. I’m selfish, I want her all to myself. I don’t even want other men looking at her, let alone thinking they have the slightest chance of getting any more than six feet away from her.

I have to come up with a plan that allows me to take him down but also keep her safe at the same time. Unfortunately, she will need to come with me to the meeting; after all, no one will hand over that much money without inspecting the merchandise first. I certainly wouldn’t. As for inspecting though, I’ll break every bone in their body if they dare to lay a finger on her.
