Especially after what just happened at Professor DeMarco’s house.

What he took from me.

I lick my lips, unsure of my next words but feeling the need to put them out there anyway since I don’t know what happens next. “Look, I won’t… tell anyone what happened. I just want to sleep alone in my own bed.”

“No.”

The startling simplicity of his response makes my eyes widen. I turn my face to look at him, but his gaze is fixed on the road. “Why?”

“Because I want to spend the night with you, and I don’twantyou to spend tonight alone. I want you with me.”

“Why? So you can keep an eye on me? You said you’d expect to get away with whatever you did to me.”

His brow furrows, but his gaze doesn’t leave the road. “I think you’re paraphrasing pretty generously. I said that about a specific instance.”

“You came inside me,” I say accusingly.

“Yes, I know.”

“You made me open a condom, and then you didn’t even use it. I’m not on the pill.”

“I know.”

“I don’t get the shot or anything. No IUD.”

“I get it, Sophie.”

Maybe he does, but now that I’m thinking about all this, I’m beginning to panic. Spoiled rich boys like him might like to dally with girls like me, but they certainly don’t want to deal with any unwanted repercussions.

He’s proven tonight that he’s willing to commit crimes to get his way and cover his tracks. I’ve seen that he apparently has friends who will help him clean up his crime scenes.

What else might he do?

What might he do tome?

“So, you got what you wanted. Why won’t you let me go home now?”

His gaze flickers in my direction, but a car approaches in the other lane, so he doesn’t look at me for long. “I already told you. I want to spend the night with you.”

“Then you’ll let me leave in the morning?”

He doesn’t answer that question.

I wait for it, thinking perhaps… I don’t know what, but he has to answer me.

Because it’s an easy answer.

Yes.

Of course I’ll let you go home in the morning.

If he just wants to use me one more time to satisfy his urges and then he’ll let me go home, I’ll stop complaining and let him have his way, but so much has happened tonight that’s swirling through my mind.

He asked if I was his girlfriend.

I would have never said yes to that, but I was desperate for him to stop using that toy on me. My body couldn’t take much more. I felt like I was losing my mind, and the shame that came with the physical release…

I didn’tmeanit.
