I swivel around in the dynamic chair created by the rich for the rich to look at James Hendricks’s smug face. I lean back and fold my hands behind my head like it's my own office.
"I have my ways, but you should know that by now."
He stomps forward after pressing the button that slides the automatic door closed.
"What the fuck do you want, you freak?"
"I should ask you the same thing. Since you seem so inclined to ask my wife if I venture out." I watch the surprised expression wash over his face. "I also want to know how much you value things like your hands. Especially your fingers."
"How did you know I saw your wife?"
I sit up and begin fucking with the systems he has in place on his keypad. "Do you like monitoring your business? Do you like making sure no one touches something you value the most?"
"W-what are you doing? You little shit," he says, running out of breath. The cords of his neck pop out.
I press my finger hard on the key and reply, "Touching your shit."
I get up forcefully from the chair and round the desk, buying myself time so the virus I planted takes root inside all his systems. He takes a step back because one thing I know about James Hendricks and the judges he works for is that he's a coward and a snake. To be honest, I have never cared about what he's into or gave three fucks, but he touchedmyLillith.
"What have you done?" His eyes widen as his systems begin to fail. I know the screen is glitching behind me.
"I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Is this about your wife? I didn't say anything to her."
"Are you sure about that? You didn't offer to fuck her or put your sleazy hand in hers?"
He raises his hand in mock surrender. ''You can't be serious, Cross. I know she didn't marry you out of her free will, and everyone, including the judges, knows it. We were surprised when the officiate turned in the document indicating you got married. When they find out it was forced, you know what that means. You will be banished off the island, and she will be passed around, but I assure you, I will be the first to snatch her up."
"Are you a lefty or righty?"
A look of confusion crosses his features. "What?" he snaps.
"Do you write with your left or your right hand?”
He shakes his head, annoyed, and snarls. "My right. What does that have to—"
I snatch his thumb on his right hand and twist until I hear the crack of bone cutting off his words.
He clutches his hand and grunts through the pain. "You bastard. You broke my hand!" He tries to call for his security, but he can't because his system is fucked. On top of the fact that his right hand is out of commission and he can't scan it.
"Good luck jerking off, Mr. Hendricks."
"I'll end you, you freak."
I open my hands wide. "I'm right here. What are you waiting for?" I watch him grimace because the bastard can't take a little pain. Lowering my voice, I lean close. "Don't you ever touch my wife again, or I'll wipe you off the fucking planet. No one will know what the fuck you are when I'm done with you. They will have to scrape you off."
Lillith may have thought I didn't care because I watched her leave the house. We didn't say vows to one another when we married. One vow went through my mind when she pressed her soft lips on my mask. It was to protect her from assholes like James Hendricks.
Iwalk into the dressing room in the first boutique that caught my eye. All the clothes are basic tones of fabric covering half your body, but they look interesting and sexy. Not for Killian but for me. I want to feel beautiful. I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself and need to learn to live and stop dwelling on things I can't change.
I'm looking for the screen to turn on the light, wondering why the sensor didn't go off. The boutique has a dark theme, and the walls are the only stark white in the entire store. Everything else is black with chrome accents.
I finally find the screen on the left and press, looking up as the light turns on. When I turn to hang the clothes in my arms, I drop the clothes on the carpeted floor.
"How did you get in here?"
Sitting relaxed with his legs stretched out of his tall frame is Killian. The black mask he is wearing reads Kiss Me.Very funny.
