I froze.
He knew.
How could he know? Unless…
‘You... It was you?’
‘I had to show you that you couldn’t keep whoring yourself out without repercussions.’
Tommy manhandled me to the floor, wrapping some duct tape around my wrists and securing them behind my back before sitting back and eyeing me.
‘Are you insane? You killed a man in my fucking bed?’
‘He shouldn’t have been in your bed.’
‘You’re insane!’
Tommy let out a laugh that chilled me to the core. ‘No, you were being a little slut behind my back.’
‘I broke up with you.’
‘Oh, you tried to before him, but what about Mac?’
My stomach dropped as he leaned forward and pinched my face between his thumb and finger, making me look at him.
‘How long have you been fucking your brother-in-law, Katie? No wonder he was always such an insufferable prick.’
My pulse thundered as he let my face go and pushed me onto the floor, straddling my thighs as pain gripped my arms where he pinned them beneath my back.
‘I wasn’t,’ I lied.
His fist collided with my jaw as stars exploded behind my eyes. ‘You’re a fucking liar.’
Tommy pulled his phone out of his pocket and held it up, showing me a series of images of myself and Mac in the club, his face between my thighs. ‘You’re pal Macey sent me these.’
‘Why would she?’
‘Because she’s been trying to replace you for months.’
Macey? But she’d shown no interest in Tommy. She’d never flirted with him or lusted over him like Erica had. She’d always shut those conversations down.
‘She can have you. I told you I was done.’
Another blinding crunch of his fist caught me on the side of the head as I cried out.
‘You’re an ungrateful little bitch. It’s a good job I fucking love you, Katie. Everything I’ve done has been for us, and you’re not going to ruin it. If I can’t have you, no-one will.’
‘Please, Tommy. Please let me go. We can talk about this.’
The next punch brought the bitter taste of iron filling my mouth. When he saw it, he groaned and leaned forward, licking the blood from my lips.
Tears gathered as he got up and levelled a kick at my side, leaving me breathless.
‘You made me do this. I didn’t want to.’
The rug burned against my skin as I tried to crawl away, but Tommy grabbed my hair before throwing down and landing endless kicks to my body. Sobbing, I curled into a ball to protect my battered body, but with my arms secured behind my back, it didn’t help.
‘Please stop.’
