Of course she will.

I force her to look me in the eyes. God, those pure blue eyes will be the last thing I’ll see while on this earth. “For a liar?”

She grimaces. “He’s not a liar. You don’t know him like I do.”

“No … but I will,” Apollo muses, as he grips Grey’s face and squeezes his cheeks together. “We’re going to have so much fun together, aren’t we? Just you and I.”

“Don’t touch—”

I grab her cheeks the same way. “You answer to me now.”

“Fuck you,” she hisses.

Still so fucking fiery, even in the face of evil. “Fuck me? I can grant you that wish. But you won’t like how and I’ll make sure you fucking know whose cock has a chokehold on that fucking pussy of yours.”

She gasps at my words.

She’s only ever seen me as some kind of nice friend she had somewhere deep inside her memories, a distant past where everything was easier. Fake.

She never truly knew me.

Not really.

Not like this…

Obsessed.

I could never show her, could never put my finger on it or describe it in a way where she wouldn’t run like hell. I’m obsessed with the idea of breaking her … so she’ll fit me.

My thumb slides across her lip slowly, meticulously. “You said it yourself … you were willing to do anything to save your boyfriend. I want to see how far you’ll go for him.” My jaw tenses. “Do you love him?”

She nods without hesitation.

Brave girl.

A filthy smirk grows across my face. “Then show me. Show me how much … and I might let him live.”

Apollo slaps Grey. “This fucker here is eager to please, aren’t you?”

Grey screams through the cloth in his mouth, like he wants to say something, and I’m so glad we decided to muzzle him like the dog he is.

Anything he says is poison straight into her veins.

She sucks in a breath. “Whatever you want. I’ll do it. And you let us both go.”

“So easily persuaded to give your all for a liar,” I say, sliding the knife down her pretty neck, hovering dangerously close to her veins. I could pierce her within a second and put an end to it all, just like that.

The true end of Levi Torres and Aspen Caruso.

Just like we fucking deserve.

“Fine … I’ll grant you your fucking wish.”

Fuck it.

SLICE!
