He froze.

I shrugged. It’s okay…

Rocking backward on his heels, he reacted as if he’d heard me.

All those warnings I’d read of twin flames being graced with almost telepathic abilities didn’t seem so crazy anymore.

You need to do this. I arched my chin at Rachel, making Henri look over his shoulder. Victor had stripped and shackled her, spread-eagled on the bed.

Henri tore his eyes away, his throat flexing as he swallowed hard.

I felt no jealousy that he’d slept with her. No complicated possession or pain. Just needling determination to get through today so I could take him to the kitchens and tell him everything.

Henri… I jangled my cuffs, getting his attention. Do it. Do it now.

Sighing heavily, he wiped his face with a shaking hand.

I knew why he struggled.

Why he hesitated.

He probably thought I was mad to suggest doing this. To willingly taunt the darkness in him, but…he was the only one who could ensure Victor stayed lazy and content. We couldn’t have him scouring the video feeds. Couldn’t have him being suspicious.

Our entire plan hinged on Victor not questioning why maids suddenly hid things under beds or why the orders for cleaning supplies had increased or why the recycling shed didn’t hold as many bottles.

Henri was the key to keeping Victor happy.

So…please make him happy.

Dropping his hand, he gave me the saddest smile.

Then his jaw clenched, his face hardened, and he spread his legs as if he was about to go to war.

Oh God.

This is it.

My ass heated, remembering the punishment of his palm as he spanked me by the pond.

I hadn’t been prepared for the aching desire his hand had caused.

Would this be the same or—

My core clenched as Henri suddenly flicked his wrist and sent the whip and its nasty forked tongue licking through the air. He didn’t aim at me.

Practicing.

Most likely remembering.

His first swat looked a little shaky, his second a bit stronger, his third smoother, and his fourth—the sharp snap as it cracked—echoed loudly in the torture chamber.

Well, fuck me…

Dressed all in black with unreadable eyes and perfect mastery over such a violent weapon…he was stunning.

Beyond stunning.

Diabolical.
