Something to remember me by when you’re gone.
Love you.
Leslie
My vision turns blurry, making it impossible to read through the tears that won’t stop falling.
“Are you okay?” Chris asks, concern palpable in his voice. “Do you need anything?”
Ignoring him, I show Gunner the picture and the note on the back. Rather than looking indifferent, heat flares to life in his blue eyes.
“Your sister didn’t deserve to die like that,” he says, his voice thick.
I’m so stunned by the emotion in his voice I can’t think of anything to say. Gunner clears his throat and blinks a few times until there are no remnants of the… whatever that was.
“Time to leave,” he says, brusquely.
As he turns and heads toward the door that’s now upright and leaning against the wall, I throw caution to the wind andhug Chris close. Using the hand that’s hidden from Gunner, I fish the note out of my pocket and push it into Chris’.
“Call the police as soon as we leave,” I whisper, urgently. “I need you to help get me free—”
My words are cut off when a click sounds just seconds before Chris becomes limp and his body crashes to the floor. In shock, my fingers lose their grip on the frame and it falls to the ground, shattering in the pool of blood from the bullet Gunner put in Chris’ chest.
I whip my head to Gunner, who’s holding his gun. “I told you not to do anything stupid,” he snarls. “Look what you fucking made me do.”
My body freezes in place as I take in the anger twisting his face into an unrecognizable expression.
Fuck...
He saw me give Chris the note.
Fuck!
“G-Gunner I-I…” My teeth chatter so hard it’s impossible to speak.
“Don’t!” he roars. “I’ve been patient with you, Sugar. I’ve been lenient and generous even. And this is how you repay me? By fucking touching another man.”
The sound of my blood coursing through my veins almost drowns out his words—almost,but not quite. He didn’t see the note… I think.
“No more!” Gunner thunders, continuing his tirade. “I’m done taking it slow.”
Throwing his gun to the floor, he advances on me. Since my body still refuses to move, I just stand there, terrified of what he’s going to do.
Gunner grabs my hair and pulls until my scalp screams out in pain. “It’s time to make you completely mine.”
Using his foot, he shoves the broken glass to one side before kicking my legs until I fall to the ground. Then he spins me around and forces me on all fours, hoisting my skirt up. It’s the sound of his pants being opened that finally unfreezes me.
“No!” I scream, kicking and clawing at the ground. “I’m sorry… I didn’t think… Gunner, please. Not like this. Let me… PLEASE!”
He laughs at my weak attempts of explaining myself, and the sound is woven from the sounds of nightmares. It sends a shiver down my spine, and I thrash harder, trying to break his hold.
“Don’t make it worse for yourself by fighting,” Gunner growls. He yanks at my underwear until it breaks, then he roughly shoves two fingers into my dry pussy. “You better find a way to get wet, Sugar. Otherwise this is going to hurt.”
I whimper as he retrieves his fingers, but it turns to a scream when I feel the tip of his cock against my opening.
There’s no time to prepare myself before he thrusts into me, all the way to the hilt. My insides feel like they’re on fire, and I open my mouth to scream again but no sound comes out.
I can’t breathe.
