“I almost had to run for my life into the woods. You’re lucky I didn’t dress warmer. I might have.”

“You better not.” I pull her closer. “We’ve got a lot of land out here. You could get lost or eaten by an animal.”

“It wasn’t nature’s furry predators I was worried about,” she murmurs. “I thought your friend would chase me if I ran, so I didn’t.”

“Nah. If someone’s gonna chase your pretty little ass through the woods, it’s gonna be me.”

“Sounds kinda sexy when you put it that way.”

“Mm-hmm.” I lean in and kiss her neck, feeling the thrum of her pulse beneath my lips. “You should see how sexy it would be when I caught you.”

Her heart rate kicks up a little.

She likes to be a little afraid, so I bet she likes that idea.

We’ll have to play that game sometime, too.

Satisfaction washes over me, and I wrap my arms around her middle to give her a hug. “I love you, Sophie.”

I don’t expect her to say anything back. She never does, and that’s fine. I know the score.

So it’s like someone scoops out my soul when she threads her fingers through my hair and says, “I love you, too.”

I tip my head and look up at her. “Oh yeah?”

She smiles. “Mm-hmm.”

“This is a new development.”

“Near-death experiences have a way of bringing things into quick perspective.”

I smirk. “You sure it’s not because I’ve made yourBeauty and the Beastfantasies come true?”

Her brow furrows with confusion, and she cocks her head.

I release her waist with one hand to make a sweeping gesture toward our cursed ottoman. “I suppose I could have put a tablecloth over him to make it a little clearer. I’ll make him sing for you if you want. You know ‘Be Our Guest’,piggy? Sophie’s a bigBeauty and the Beastfan.”

Her gaze flickers to Dylan, the ottoman, and she covers her face with her hands, but I think it’s to hide her smile. “You are being rather beastly.”

“Wait until I fuck you in the main house library later.” I bring my hand back in and slide it up under her tiny T-shirt so I can squeeze her tits.

“This is the most twisted Disney date ever.”

She doesn’t add that she loves it, but I’m pretty sure she does.

I don’t need her to admit it.

I push her shirt up so I can kiss her pretty tits for a little while, enjoying the sounds of her sighs and the feeling of her fingers in my hair. We make out on the couch while the rest of the movie plays, but then I get carried away and have to eat her pussy. I just want to make her come, but the inevitable result ofher sexy little mewls is that I start wanting to fuck her again, and that’s not the plan.

I guess it’s time to deal with Dylan so we can get on with our evening. I’m just hoping I don’t scare her off.

Sophie is fine with me fucking with her head a little and manipulating her surroundings to give her a scare, but in the face of it actually happening, I’m not sure she’ll be okay with someone getting hurt—even if itisDylan.

I told her what would happen, though, and she knows I’m not some asshole who talks just to hear his own voice. I think she knows I mean what I say, so even if rationally she didn’t intend to unleash me on him, I think deep down, she did.

And that’s fucking fine. She doesn’t have to forgive a single goddamn person who steps on her toes, least of all this asshole. If she wants me to mow through her past, fucking up everyone who’s ever hurt her, I am more than happy to do so.

Sophie’s my queen, and she can order as many heads chopped off as she pleases.
