He glared at me. “Not fucking happening.”

“Well, it was just a thought. I knew you’d say no. She’s a little too wild for my tastes too.” I frowned and cocked my head.

Secrets. Lots of secrets. A man. Dark hair. A blonde girl. A queen. Hiding. He’s hiding.

The image faded. I tugged at my hair, irritated. Having these little flashes always irritated me.

“Message from another world?” Sin asked.

“Yes.” I backed away from him. “I’m leaving.”

“I figured.”

“Halloween. You’ll hang. You’ll burn. You’ll scream. Best prepare yourself. Retribution is coming, Sinclair. It’s going to get you.”

He stared at me as I walked backward from him. I offered him a smile and cocked my head.

“You’ll get on your knees for me that night. You’ll beg. I suggest making your peace with the consequences.She knows.” I reached the elevator and hit the button. The doors opened, and I stepped inside, taking in the fear on his face.

“And she’s going to tell on you, Sinclair. Don’t kill this one though. She means well. If you hurt her again, I’ll kill you. Slowly.” The doors closed before he could say anything to me.

Not that he was going to.

The fear of what was to come was already strangling him.

“Open,”I instructed as I sat on the bed facing my firefly the following night.

She parted her lips for me, and I dropped a piece of orange into her mouth.

“Chew.”

She did as I told her and swallowed and parted her lips for me to feed her again. I loved feeding my little firefly princess. I liked taking care of her. This felt a million times more enjoyable than smashing a shovel over her head.

“Come,” I said softly, placing the piece of orange between my lips. I wanted to know what she’d do. If she’d be brave to come take it from me.

She stared at the orange in my mouth before she shifted forward, her eyes locked on mine.

My cock ached in my sweatpants.

She was such a sweet, scared kitten. It turned me on in ways no one else ever had.

I waited patiently for her as she leaned in.

She was so terrified. Trembling. But so brave too.

She wanted it.

Her lips brushed against mine as she took the orange from my mouth, sending a zing of electricity straight to my dick.

I watched as she moved back and chewed the orange, her eyes never leaving me.

“I want you,” I said.

She blinked at me.

“You said I was yours,” I continued. “That we were. That you were ours.”
