“Did you think I would let anyone else touch you? You are mine. And I don’t share.”
“You could have come without the mask. I thought you were some random guy.”
“Isn’t that what you wanted? Some random guy?” I’m seething just thinking about it.
“You think I wanted any of this? I didn’t have a choice.”
“You had a choice. You could have told me. You chose to keep that from me.”
“How did you even find out where I was?” she questions, squinting her eyes at me.
This is going to be the part that sucks the worst. I don’t want her to feel betrayed by her friend, but I don’t want to lie to her either. “Wren told me to protect you, not to hurt you,” I offer.
“Ugh,” she groans in frustration, her head sinking back into the pillow as her hands turn to small fists by her side. “I can’t believe this.” Her voice is wobbly, and she tries to blink some tears away. “I want to leave.”
“And where exactly are you going to go?” I growl. “Back to your deadbeat father? Fuck no! You are staying here tonight,” I say, without leaving room for discussion.
“I’ll stay with Wren,” Maya quips.
“So you are already not mad at her anymore, but you are still mad at me?”
“You drugged me!” She is screaming now, and if my parents were home, I would care.
“Yes, I did,” I admit shamelessly. “And you came on my cock. Don’t deny it. I felt it. You got wet when I touched you. You liked what I did to you, and I didn’t hurt you.”
“How would you know you didn’t hurt me?” She accuses.
“I tried not to. If I did, I’m sorry,” I tell her honestly. Softening my voice, I continue, “Did I? Hurt you, I mean.”
“No, you didn’t hurt me, but you scared the shit out of me. I didn’t want to be drugged. They had to hold me down while I was naked on the bed,” she spits at me with such anger and hurt, my own feelings take me by surprise. I’m furious… furious with them for doing that to her and with myself for letting it happen.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know they would force you like that. Lucian told me you were doing this willingly. Didn’t you have to sign a contract?”
“I did, I mean I went in willingly, I didn’t know about the drug until after I signed,” she explains, her anger finally simmered down. “I was freaking out, and I was scared.”
“I’m sorry,” I apologize yet again, feeling guilty for taking it so far. I take a seat on the edge of the bed and reach for her hand. I’m surprised when she doesn’t pull away. She lets me wrap mylarger fingers around hers. “If you really want to go to Briggs’s place, I’ll take you. But I’d rather you stay here with me.”
“Why?” She asks hesitantly, her gaze guarded as if she is waiting for me to tell her I’m joking.
“I don’t know,” I tell her honestly. “I just want you close.”
Her eyes soften, and I smile.
“I’ll stay,” she whispers, making me sigh in relief.
“Are you hungry? I can make you something to eat,” I offer, but Maya shakes her head.
“I’m just really thirsty,” she explains. “My mouth is so dry.”
“I’ll be right back,” I say before jogging out of the room and downstairs into the kitchen. I grab two cold bottles of water from the fridge and jog back upstairs.
When I get back, she is still lying on my bed where I left her. I set one bottle onto my nightstand and open the other to hand to her. She sits up slightly, leaning onto her elbow, as she reaches for the bottle with her free hand. She takes a few gulps before handing the bottle back to me. I take a few swigs myself and set the bottle down.
Turning toward Maya, I notice she is sprawled out on my bed, wearing her jeans and shirt.
“Let me give you something to sleep in.” I walk to my dresser and pick out one of my softer T-shirts. By the time I walk back to the bed, she is already taking her shirt and bra off.
Her perfect tits come into view, and I have to force myself not to groan. I’ve already fucked her twice tonight, but I could go for a third if I didn’t think she is probably sore.
