His hand shot out and gripped my upper arm. My stomach turned over and I froze, keeping my eyes on my reflection in the dark window.
“Are you still a virgin?” he asked softly.
No, I couldn’t tell him that. His grip tightened and pain shot up my arm. I gasped, dipping my head.
“Are you?”
“Osian, let me go,” I whispered.
He shook me, just a tiny bit, but it was enough to snap me out of it. I pulled my arm hard, twisting to face him, and he let go.
His eyes blazed and his chest heaved. I needed to get out of this room and get somewhere that had a lock on the door.
He could kill me. Would he? Probably not. But he could.
“He fucks you,” Osian spat.
“Go away. Get out.”
“Just fucking tell me,” he roared.
I stumbled back, catching onto the countertop. There was nothing I hated more than when men raised their voices. It stirred a panic in me that made me want to run, to curl up on the floor.
“Tell me,” he repeated.
“Fine,” I breathed. “He fucks me. Please, just don’t…just go.”
“Do you know how fucking humiliating it is to be engaged to you? Everyone knows and they’re just pretending not to. They fucking laugh at me.”
“Osian, I’m sorry—”
“You dirty cunt,” he snapped. “When did he do it?”
“No, I’m not talking about this,” I gasped.
“Yes, the fuck you are. Merrick Llwyd set me up to look like a pussy in front of everyone who matters. He’s done nothing but undermine and humiliate me every chance he’s gotten. When did he fuck you?”
“In the late fall,” I said, keeping my eyes down. “I said I was with Daphne and Ophelia, but I was with Merrick.”
His nostrils went white, flaring. His mouth was a rigid line in his jaw.
“Did you bleed?”
My stomach churned. “What the fuck? What is wrong with you?”
“Answer me,” he roared, his hand coming down on the countertop.
“Yes, I did,” I said, a sob finally escaping my lips. “Why the fuck does that matter to you?”
“Everyone knows,” he shouted. “Everyone fucking knows that Merrick Llwyd is fucking my future wife right under my nose. You dirty, little bitch, you fucking whore.”
My body had been telling me to keep away from him for a long time. Something in my brain clicked and my instincts rose to protect me.
I was going to listen this time.
Throwing up my hand, I sent him a death glare. “Get out,” I hissed. “Don’t you dare try to touch or fucking speak to me. Get out of my house.”
Something about seeing me stand up to him made him lose the last shreds of his control. His scarred brows drew together and a look that made my blood go cold flashed in his eyes. His body blurred and it took me a moment to realize he was coming at me.
