“Fuck you.”

Sin laughed. “All in good time, sweetheart.”

He tossed me backward, and I stumbled into Saint’s arms. He held me and licked up my cheek; the wetness left a feverish heat searing through me. But I jerked my head away from his tongue only for him to laugh at me, too.

“Disgusting.”

Their evil laughter mixed into one as Saint said, “Run, little obsession, run.”

“If we find you, we’ll screw you,” Sin promised through clenched teeth as his head bowed and he stared at me with insane certainty. “And we’ll stick our dicks in every hole you have.”

Forty-Six

Their Obsession

Liv

Saint released me, and I gasped as my ass hit the floor. Pain radiated up my tailbone, but my heels thrashed against the floor as I scurried backward until I hit the wall behind me. Startled, I stood up and raced down the hallway as their wicked laughter followed me.

The dimly lit corridor created shadows that leaped out at me everywhere I turned. Frightened, I hurried forward with only a brief glance backward. I saw nothing. But within this dark hallway, Sin and Saint were hot on my trail.

I passed rooms, furniture, and a kitchen. I heard hisses, but not from Rocko. More cats. The animals were everywhere as I stopped and searched around for anywhere to escape. My eyes landed on a patio door.

I darted for the back patio as I heard footsteps not far behind me, and my heart jumped up into my throat. I was certain I’d choke on the organ and those fuckers would find me. Adrenaline pumped as I got outside, and the cold surrounded me. There was a full moon shining from the dark sky above as my stilettos hit the stairs. I wobbled with each step until I hit the grass and fell flat on my stomach.

Panicked, I peered up to only see a dark figure on the balcony eyeing its prey from above. My legs pushed up, and I was off without another glance back, fearful of them reaching out to grab me and having me all over again.

My feet ached as I ran as fast as I could and darted through the park behind their penthouse. I had no idea where I was going, but all I wanted to do was get away from them—away from their consequences and the ownership they held over my head. I wanted to escape, and freedom was somewhere through these stupid trees.

I tripped over an exposed root in the ground and fell against a tree trunk. I panted, with strands of my hair moving in and out from my parted lips. Disoriented, I glanced left and right, unsure of the direction I had just been running. They could be anywhere by now, and I was a sitting doe with wide eyes, quivering from the damp, chilly night.Damn this skimpy dress I hadworn! To hell with my broken heel and all my dumb decisions leading me right to this moment!

“Shit,” I whispered when I heard a twig snap.

Dread pulsed through me as my hands worked with my heels, and I took them off. My bare feet were cold against the grassy soil as I hid behind the tree trunk and prayed they didn’t find me. I wasn’t one who believed in much, but I had to have faith in something. Because if they found me, I would be in trouble. Screwed.

I didn’t make a peep, not even one sound, as I listened to the leaves sway in the breezy night and car engines rev off in the distance. The city streets were too far away, and I wasn’t anywhere close to getting out of this park.

No wonder I never ventured here. This place was full of nature and bugs were everywhere. I could feel creepy crawlies on my feet and they crawled up my legs. It was an unwanted tingle as goosebumps peaked from the chill and perspiration beaded on my forehead. I tried hard to remain still, unmoving, as whatever insects wiggled on me, and I only breathed tiny puffs of air.

The coast appeared to be clear as I decided which direction to flee, and I shot out into the wilderness in a sprint. My legs moved fast, my pulse raced, and the air huffed from my lungs. I’d make it out of here in onepiece with no dickheads sticking anything in my holes. Their threat was no match for—

In an instant, someone tackled me down. A body fell on top of me, and I wasn’t sure who it was. A scream tore from me and howled into the night, but the vicious animal who had captured me didn’t care. He covered my mouth and quieted his prey.

Somehow, I got out from underneath him, and his hand released me. I clawed at the earth and pulled my bodyweight until one of them grabbed me by my ankles. A fearful yelp escaped me as my hands sunk into the dirt, but I only dug a hole. A big deep trench I couldn’t get out of as he trapped me and fingers wrapped around my throat. The powerful squeeze made it hard to breathe, and I gasped for air.

“Found you,” Saint whispered into my ear.

“Asshole,” I choked out with my cheek pressed into the earth. Black boots were inches from my face.

I watched as Sin bent down, rested an arm on his knee, and he brushed the hair out of my face. “Caught you.”

“Go to hell,” I spat out, and my nostrils flared.

Sin snapped his fingers, and Saint released me. The heavy weight from his body eased off, and I coughed into the grass. My hands rubbed my neck and tried to relieve the pain from the strangulation, but it was nouse. I was in pain from my aching feet, the bug bites, my cold bones, and Saint’s brutal force.

“Get on your feet, Liv,” Sin ordered from above as he peered down at me like I was an insect he’d squash.

Scratch that.
