Interesting.

I drop the fork back into the bowl and take my time lifting my face once more. “I don’t need to know you. Stay quiet. Stay alive. Then you might just make it home safely one day.”

She wraps her robe tightly around herself, hiding all the creamy skin on her decolletage that I was trying to ignore.

And failing.

While I’m being honest, it was the soft curve of her small breasts I was eyeing. Although I wouldn’t mind running my palm over her decolletage to grip her little neck while I’m slamming my cock inside her.

In another life.

Today, she’s my captive.

Kyra’s voice is quiet and shaky as she asks, “And if I’m not quiet?”

Goddamn her.

I open the door, step through it and then turn. “Don’t pretend you have the courage to find out, Kyra. We both know you’re a compliant submissive.”

I pull the door closed.

CHAPTER SIX

KYRA

Fuck him.

Fuckingfuckhim!

I clamber off the bed and pace the floor with my fists clenched. Then I stamp my feet. My eyes dart around the room seeking something to throw, but of course he’s prisoner-proofed the place.

I rip open the toothpaste and squirt it all over the mirror.

Jesus, this is making a mess. I’m not usually this messy, so it’s actually irking me, and I fight the urge to clean it up.

Tugging the towels off the rail, I throw them in the air then scream.

And scream.

I bang at the door and scream some more until my throat hurts.

Maddox doesn’t return.

“Argh!” I stomp back into the room and see the bowl of food. I’m not sure if I am hungry, but the last thing I feel like doing is eating.

For all I know, he’s poisoned it.
