I didn’t even get to make her bleed…
I didn’t even get to make her bleed.
My hand trembled, still clutching the knife. Nick raged forward, moving like a blur to grab Killion by his shirt and lift his body from the floor. “Where is the goddamn recording!” he screamed. “Give it to us NOW!”
But Killion just whimpered, which only seemed to enrage him more.
Nick unleashed, driving his fists into Killion’s face, then he pressed his fingers into his neck on some pressure point that made Killion pale then buck in agony.
“You think you can bargain with her life?” Nick leaned close to him. “You think you can trade her away like she’s some piece of fucking meat?”
I tightened my hold around the knife, my whole body trembling.
“She is our sister, our lover. She is ours to protect and ours to save.”
“And we are hers,” Caleb joined in, turning his gaze to mine. “For now…and always.”
“There is no…fucking recording,” Killion hissed, staring up into Nick’s eyes.
My brother flinched, then eased his hold and dropped Killion to the floor. “Then we have no use for you.”
The ringing in my ears was a deafening drum. I moved on instinct, striding forward. “Only for me.”
Tobias’s head snapped toward me, followed by Nick’s. “Princess,” Nick murmured.
But I couldn’t answer, because I wasn’t here. I was trapped in that room, held prisoner by that man’s hands and his violence. I needed to find myself, to pull myself back any way I could. I stepped closer, drawing Killion’s stare. He thought so little of me, nothing more than flesh to poke and prod any way he chose.
I’d survived then…I survived that room and I survived him. I lowered myself to the floor, kneeling, and pressed the edge of the knife against the buttons of his shirt. But Killion wouldn’t survive me. I’d make sure of it.
Pop. A button tore free with a jerk of the knife. I flicked again and again, slicing them off. “Tobias,” I whispered.
“Yes, little mouse?”
I didn’t look away from Killion as I demanded, “Take his pants off.”
There was a second of silence, until he understood. Then with a chuff, he moved. “Whatever you need.”
“Wait!” Killion spluttered, and flecks of blood flew through the air as he batted Tobias’s hands away.
“He needs to be restrained,” Caleb directed, glancing at Nick.
Revulsion burned in my brother’s eyes. But he couldn’t do it. “If I touch him, I’m going to kill him.”
One shove, and Nick rose.
Caleb was the one who grabbed Killion’s arms as Tobias yanked open his belt and unbuttoned his pants, Caleb whose unflinching stare drove Killion’s panic even more.
“Stop this!” he bucked and fought.
But it was useless. One hard jerk and Tobias tore his pants down. He wasn’t gentle when he ripped his shoes free and cast them aside to hit the barely breathing, beaten bodyguard. I moved over Killion, straddled his thighs, and looked down at his white cotton underpants. “So fucking unoriginal, aren’t you?”
The worthless apology for a male blubbered, his hands held back by Caleb.
“You are just a weak, pathetic excuse for a man.”
“I’ll pay you. Whatever you want, I’ll pay you.”
I pressed the knife against his tiny cock, it was barely big enough to make a mound against his underpants. “What did you tell me?‘I’ll fuck you until you see stars?’”I looked down and pressed the knife harder. “Not with this, you wouldn’t.”
