“I’m here, Evie.”

“Did you kill him?” she asked quietly.

“No. But I should,” I growled.

“Don’t. I’ll destroy him tomorrow. Please? I wanna do it.” She pouted up at me, her beautiful green eyes still dilated, but there was a bit of clarity in them.

“Okay.” I sighed. I kicked the man in the ribs on the way out, Tenoch urging me to do more than that, but I wanted Evie to exact her revenge. She deserved to have the honor of doing it.

Everyone had disappeared from the house by the time we came back out of the room. I placed Evie gently into the passenger seat and headed to the hotel. Tenoch was still urging me to turn around and dismember the man that tried to rape Evie while she slept soundly next to me.

I carried her up the stairs to the suite, laid her in bed and removed her shoes before tucking her in. I was about to get her some water when she grabbed my wrist and pulled me down. Stumbling in surprise, I braced myself on the bed so I wouldn’t crush her and froze when she grabbed my neck and kissed me. I pulled back in surprise, but she used some surprising strength to pull me back down and crashed her lips to mine again.

I froze again, but when her lips started moving against mine, I lost the will to resist, and I kissed her back, my body responding on its own. I let myself kiss her, tasted her sweet lips before reality came crashing over me, and the guilt of taking advantage of her in this state made me pull back again.

“Evie, you’ve been drugged. It’s going to be okay,” I whispered, taking her hands away when they tried to reach for me.

“Cory,” she whined, her body writhing under me while I tried to keep her at arm’s length. I didn’t want to take advantage of her, but my cock was reacting to her smell, her touch and her little noises. Fuck. I wanted her, but not like this.

“Evie, please. I don’t want to take advantage of you.” I was begging her because I didn’t know how long I could resist her.

“Cory. Kiss me,” she begged. I whimpered, trying to resist when her leg came up from under her dress, wrapping around my waist and pulled me closer to her, grinding herself against my hard cock. I groaned and kissed her, feeling myself getting lost in her arms. I let my tongue trace her soft lips, and she gave a small moan and parted them for me. Goddess, she tasted so sweet. I explored her mouth for a moment longer before I finally pulled back.

“I can’t, Evie, I can’t. Goddess, I fucking love you, but I can’t. You’re not in your right mind. I’m not taking advantage of you,” I panted, pulling her away as gently but as firmly as I could. She pouted, but I sat next to her and combed my fingers through her hair. It used to help her fall asleep when we were little and after a few minutes, her breath evened out, and her eyes fluttered closed.

I walked over to my room, leaving the connecting door open, and collapsed in my suite. I was still painfully hard, could still feel her mouth and body on mine, and every part of my body was screaming at me to go back to the other room and finish what she started.

Sleep evaded me for hours, stuck between my desire and guilt for taking advantage of Evie. She was drugged, and under Zi’s spell. My heart hurt thinking she very likely didn’t care and was just being influenced. I told her I loved her. Would she run away and avoid me in the morning?

I was still awake when I heard her scream, and I was out of bed and at her side in an instant. She was still asleep, having a nightmare.

“Evie! Evie, you’re okay. I’m here,” I said, shaking her awake. She woke up in a panic, and it took her a few minutes to calm down.

“Wha-what happened?” she asked.

“What do you remember?”

“I remember—” I handed her the cup of water, and she took a big gulp. “—I remember giving him the money, and then it got fuzzy. Di-did he?”

“No. He didn’t get the chance.”

“Did you kill him?” she asked.

“No. You said you wanted to destroy him in the morning. I thought I owed it to you to let you do your thing.” I tried to smile.

“Thank you. Did we get the phones?”

“We did.”

“So I can do whatever I want to him now?” she asked, anger filling her eyes now.

“I mean, if you don’t, I’m heading back to kill him,” I told her seriously. “Do you remember anything at all after being drugged?” I asked.

“Bits and pieces of you barging in and then nothing.” She shook her head. I nodded, not sure if I was relieved about that or not.

“Well, get some sleep. We’ll talk again in the morning,” I said.

“Cory?” she asked quietly.
