He pats my head like I’m a pet, but I’m too relieved to bristle. Exhaustion seeps into my bones, making me feel like a broken doll that’s been mauled by a rabid dog.

Just as I’m about to dissolve into a puddle of relief, he threads his fingers through my hair and raises my head with a jerk, making my scalp burn.

“What?” I snap.

Those featureless brown eyes stare down at me, unblinking. Lips twitching, he says, “You still have ropes around your wrists and ankles.”

“Meaning what?”

“Technically, you’re still restrained.”

My jaw drops. “No. My arms are free. So are my legs. If I wanted to, I could run.”

“But you didn’t.”

“But that wasn’t the point,” I say, my voice rising.

Xero releasesmy hair, letting my head flop down toward my lap. “If the men who broke into your house tied you up and tossed you in the back of their vehicle, would you stay in place after cutting yourself free?”

“Of course not, but?—”

“No buts, little ghost. You failed to run in the face of a threat, which only makes me conclude that you want to take my gun like a good girl.”

“I don’t want it,” I blurt.

“I see.”

My head snaps up. “What does that mean?”

“If you want my cock instead, you only need to ask,” he says with what he thinks is a kind smile. “It’s all yours.”

“I…” My throat dries, and my gaze drops down to the erection pushing through his pants. Heat rushes to my cheeks, and I swallow hard. “Are you going to give me anal?”

“Do you want it?” he asks, his voice lowering several octaves.

He knows I want it. I used to beg him for another dildo, because I wanted to try double penetration, since Xero banned me from sticking anything else in my pussy except tampons.

“Tongue-tied, little ghost?” he asks, his voice light with amusement.

I glance up at him, not knowing if this is a trick. “I thought I was being punished?”

He runs his fingers down the side of my cheek. “It will be if I don’t allow you to come.”

“Wait.” I rise off the bed on shaky legs. “How is that even fair? Where’s my incentive for playing your games if you keep tricking me with technicalities?”

“You think this is a game?” His fingers slide down my neck.

My throat tightens, and my prey instincts scream at me to flee. “It is when you keep turning me on then get an erection from watching me struggle and panic.”

He grabs my throat and eases me back on the bed. “You forget the purpose of this training. Tonight, I walked into an elegant house occupied by people associated with X-Cite Media. Two of my men are scouting the studio where they record those movies, and they say it’s staffed with at least twelve guards.”

“How does letting you fuck me in the ass with a gun change that?”

His gaze drops to my lips. “My methods are brutal to reflect the severity of the threat. While I’m figuring out that firm’s weaknesses and how to take down that leader, I also need to use any method necessary to prepare you for what’s coming.”

Prepare me for what’s coming or get pleasure from making me squirm? I don’t voice that because he’s unpredictable.

“Then why don’t we just run away?” I ask.
