“I’m… sorry.” I stuttered weakly. 

“You could have died, you fool!” his hand flew across my cheek again and I collapsed. “Fuck you!” he cursed. I sob weakly. In less than twelve hours, I’ve seen the man I so badly want to be with, turn evil and dangerous. Now I am at his mercy. At the mercy of a cruel stranger. “I warned you. Now, you’ll pay.”

He grabbed my shirt roughly and dragged me into his house. We get to a room. He kicks the door open and throws me inside. He slams the door behind him and silence. I cry softly till I fall asleep.

I am forced to open my eyes when cold water splashes on my face. I opened them in time to see Sexy lift a bucketful of water and empty it on me. I gasp. I am only in my underwear, no longer in the room he had dragged me to. I’m tied to a chair in a dark room with only one source of light. Which was faint. 

“I’ll ask only once. You don’t want to make me repeat myself.” He is calm but his eyes are dangerously blue. “Why were you in my boot?”

“I wanted… to follow… you.” My teeth are gnashing and I am trembling as a subtle breeze blows in my direction.
