“What did you do?”

“I did some digging into that girl that caused so many problems that I got blamed for.” He shrugged like it was no big deal to be a stalker. “I found out she had a pretty tough childhood. She was taken away from her druggie mother when she was only five.” His eyebrows raised like it was something I should be interested in.

“What does that have to do with Jessica and how did you even find out about her?”

“I was thinking that maybe her mother would help me out for some drug money, but while I was looking her up, I realized that she was in jail for yet another drug charge. Naturally, I thought I was out of luck, until I found out that Ashley had an older sister that was taken away before she was even born.”

He moved to my side and sat down on the edge of the bed. “My luck wasn’t over.” He smiled. “I reached out to her and found her living in squalor. I cleaned her up, gave her money, a car, and promised to get her a place of her own along with some money if she followed every direction I gave her. Of course, she agreed when she found out that it was you that I wanted.”

I was pissed that a girl I thought was a friend was just another one of Chris’ pawns. “She told me she had moved to town with a friend,” I whispered, thinking back on our conversations.

Chris’ eyes lit up. “That friend, that was me. I had to stay somewhere while I was hanging out in that God forsaken town.”

“I can’t believe you did all of this. And for what? To hurt me?”

His face suddenly became serious. “No, to kill you. You were surprisingly hard to get my hands on and when I did finally get you, you always managed to slip through my fingers. Not this time. This time, it’s over.” He picked up his hand and placed it on my knee before something flashed in his eyes, was it sadness?

“Things could have been so different with us.” His eyes didn’t meet mine, instead they stayed looking down where his hand was resting against me.

I shook my head. “No it couldn’t. I’ve always belonged to Mason, I was just pretending with you.”

His eyes jumped to mine and I saw the darkness take over before he covered it up. Instead of getting mad and hitting me, he forced a smile. “Come on, we’ve had some good times.”

I lifted my chin defiantly.

“I know you won’t admit it. But I have to say, I did have some fun with you.” His hand slowly started trailing up my thigh. I kicked my leg, trying to get his hand off of me. Instead of letting it fall, he squeezed harder.

“Maybe I should show you who you belong to one last time.”

He moved to cover my body with his, but I thrashed against him, yelling as loud as I could with my overly dry throat.

His hand came down, covering my mouth. His nose was touching mine as he glared into my eyes. “If you don’t shut the fuck up right now, I won’t bother waiting for Mason to get here.” He cocked his head. “I’m sure finding you dead will have the same effect.” His voice was deep but controlled.

I closed my mouth but the tears streamed down my overheated cheeks as his hands continued to roam my body. With his hand still covering my mouth, his lips descended down my neck where he bit me harshly. I let out a sudden squeal with the pain.

He used his knees to pry my legs open as he settled between them. My head was still pounding and the weight of Chris’ body on mine was too much. My anxiety was through the roof, causing my breathing to become labored. The more I tried to catch my breath, the harder it was.

He removed his hand from my lips and grabbed me by my thighs, yanking me down the bed. His hand slid up my dress, pushing the thin material out of his way before grasping my panties in his fist. “I bet this is going to be better than our first time.” When the words left his lips, he yanked them down my legs, fabric tearing beneath his rough touch.

I knew what was coming and I cried harder. I wiggled beneath him, trying anything I could to make him stop, but my efforts were futile.

He sat back on his knees. “You remember our first time, right?” He grinned down at me as he began working on his belt.

I closed my eyes, not able to bear what I was about to see. I heard the clanking of his belt before a loud boom filled the room.
