Her bottom lip quivers for a split second. “I always have a choice.” Her voice raises, stretching herself towards my face. “Get out of my way,” she grinds out. “I was having a good time before you interrupted me.”

My blood is simmering in my veins at her words.

“Look me in the eyes and tell me you don’t love me anymore.”

Silence.

The room falls utterly silent as Jordan freezes.

Then, she straightens her back, hard, ice-blue eyes meeting mine. “I don’t love you anymore.”

I lean in close, so close that our noses are almost touching and her breath hitches. “Bullshit,” I mutter. “Whatever happens tonight, whatever you’re planning, it better be good. Because in the end, I will do anything to make sure you admit you love me.”

She tries to wriggle away from me, tilting her hips, but I snap my hand to her ass with a crack and slide her into me. My dick twitches at the sudden contact of her hips with mine.

“It’s not.” There’s hesitation in her voice, but I didn’t need to hear it to know she’s talking utter shit right now.

All my efforts to build her up have led us here. She’s breaking, but her mind is laser focused on revenge while battling what she’s feeling towards me.

“I’m done with you pushing me away.” As much as I don’t want to, I break our eye contact and begin tracing the tip of my nose over her face and to her ear. “You can lie to yourself, but you’re not lying to me anymore,” I whisper, nipping her earlobe which causes her to pull in a breath.

I inhale her fresh shampoo and old tears before I drag my tongue over the column of her neck. Her hands slap down on the table behind her, making her lean back, giving me perfect access to her exposed neck.

“Stop, Kain.” It’s a moan.

“No.”

The knife is a weight against my thigh as Kain massages my other one. If he finds it, my plan is over. But fuck, I love the way he’s touching me right now. My pussy is all but weeping for him. I don’t know how he can do this to me with a single touch. He’s ruining every single plan I had tonight. Crumbling down whatever was left of the ice around my heart.

“Why don’t you just leave me the fuck alone, Kain? Why do you keep pressing?” My pussy pulses in my panties as Kain bites his teeth into the dip between my neck and shoulder, sucking on the skin there, sure to leave a bruise.

“I can deal with you hurting me, but what I can’t deal with is you pushing me away anymore.” His voice is a low whisper, almost desperate as his lips trace over my collar bone, reaching dangerously close to my breasts. “That hurts me more than your words ever did.”

His tongue piercing presses into the divot between my collarbones and he licks upwards.

“You told me you loved me,” Kain murmurs.

“It was a mistake. I don’t love you anymore.” I’m lying through my fucking teeth, and I don’t think I have any more attempts at trying to convince him of that.

“I don’t fucking believe you. Every single glare, every reaction, proves that I still own a part of you,” he whispers against my lips before connecting our mouths together.

He ravages my mouth as his hand combs through my hair, reaching for my ponytail and pulling on the hair, which only causes shivers to break out on every inch of my skin. I moan, leaning my head back and he impatiently kisses his way down to my neck, licking and sucking at the sensitive skin again.

“You’re gonna leave marks.” I sigh as I fist my hands into his soft hair, tugging, then drifting down.

“I don’t give a fuck,” he rumbles against my skin.

And fucking hell, neither do I. Not anymore.

“I’ll just hurt you,” I warn him, all the while my hands are clawing at his shirt, trying to bring him closer to me.

“So hurt me. Give me everything you fucking have. I’ll gladly take it all.”

He just won’t fucking give up.
