Toya
He was watching me.
Was it wrong to get a thrill from having the eyes of a predator watching me? I will admit that not only was I taunting him, I was testing the boundaries as I smiled to the guests who would occasionally stop and speak to me.
Another game, to alleviate the boredom that threatened to choke me. Connor would be the star of my new game. He hadn’t changed, always seeking to control everyone and everything. Like the dark brandy I watched pour into the glass tumbler. The dark liquid trying to consume the carved ice. Thanking the bartender with a soft smile, I turned only to be confronted with the very man I was thinking about.
His eyes were narrowed, as he took the cup form my hand and placed it on the bar. “Come with me.” His voice was hard with warning, daring me to deny him.
For a moment, I wanted to, just to see if I’d see a flash of that cloying monster he held under tight control. Instead, I kept my smile and nodded. “Sure.”
He seemed thrown by my easy agreement. With a jerky nod, he turned on his heel and left the main room. Me following close behind.
The hallway was lit with ropes of Christmas lights, it held a bit of fancy. A fancy that wasn’t reflected in the tight feeling in my chest. I had to bite my lip from grinning at the ideas that poured in, would he choke me again, or would he attack me, this time leaving a bruise?
It was hard, but I swallowed the urge to laugh.
He turned, opening the door to a room that clearly read, “Storage Room.” Oh, he was truly intending to cause harm.
I entered first, as he stepped aside to allow me entrance. What a gentleman, I took in the interior before he pounced. His large hand wrapping around my throat, and his arm coming around my middle dragging me against him. His body was a stone wall, as he harshly breathed in my left ear.
“Did you think I was joking, Pig?” he demanded angrily, “You want to fucking test me, do you think I’ll leave you alone because I’m scared, huh?”
If I didn’t bother fighting, this game couldn’t be played in a fun way if he thought he could just step all over me. After all, while domination of this kind made my stomach hum he had to know I wasn’t so easy. So instead of panicking, I slid my fingers down as if to pull from him. Pulling and gasping in mock shock, then I felt it.
Luckily, the storage room was dark enough. The blade I’d hidden just below the fabric of my gown pressed against my abdomen. Dipping my fingers inside, I pulled it out, and with a cry of mock fear, I brought it down into his leg, jerking it out with a sickening wet sound.
“Augh! What the fuck?”
His cry of pain was followed with him releasing me, giving me the chance to turn around in time for him to fall to one knee. Grabbing his chin in a punishing hold, I flipped the blade so that it was pointed directly at his neck; the tip gently pressed against the major artery there.
He stared up at me, surprise, anger, and a flicker amusement in his eyes. He licked his lips. “Now, Toya, we both know you won’t do it.” His voice was both cajoling and amused.
“You right, today I won’t do it.” His eyes flickered with arrogance. “Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after that. I mean, you’re such an easy target, especially when it comes to women.”
I lowered the blade so that it pressed into his shoulder cutting through the suit to the skin beneath the scent of blood filling the air, my eyes searching his face for the flicker of pain. “Alpha males are always the easiest to dispatch,” I mused softly. Leaning down, I made sure to move the blade from his shoulder to his chest. “So sure no one can hurt them.”
Pulling back after a beat, I took a step back only to be bodily picked up and slammed against the wall. A hand once again at my throat, but my legs wide so that he fit in-between.
“Don’t fuck with me.” His teeth grinded together, and his eyes were feral. “No one! Not even some fucked up little girl will get the best of me!”
I couldn’t help laughing, as I drew the knife in his gut back. I had avoided hitting anything life threatening, but at the slight wince of his eyes I withdrew. It was satisfying as I lifted it to my lips and let my tongue taste his demonic blood. “Is that so?”
He shoved me harder, causing me to jerk my head back, his nostrils flared. “Don’t make me hurt you,” he warned.
Straining, I leaned forward and mocked him with everything in my being. “Do your worst.”
He growled, his eyes changing as he drew back long enough to force me to turn. Grabbing my arm with the knife in it, he twisted it so that the knife slipped from my fingers. His hands dragged down, jerking up my dress.
His breath sucked in as he stared fixedly on the bare globes of my bottom. “You—!”
Breathing hard, I looked at him over my shoulder, a wicked smile playing at my lips. “Don’t think too hard, that isn’t for you.”
His expression grew icy, his hand holding my wrist tightening till I found myself crying out. “Who?” he demanded, his voice dark with something threatening. “Who are you fucking, Pig?”
Panting, I faced forward. “No one you know.” I laughed tauntingly, only to suck in a quick breath when his fingers dipped between the globes of my ass. “W-what are you doing?”
