“I had no choice!”

I run my hands through my hair, elbows on my knees. “I know.”

As I meet her gaze, I add, “But you liked it!”

Her bottom lip trembles. “Rick…”

“Did you let them fuck you at the same time, or did they take turns?” I know I’m cruel, but my own hurt is a sick twisted illness that spreads and poisons everything in its path. I’m in love with her and I want to claw my own fucking skin off when I think of her with not one but two other guys. “Did you let them spit roast you like a fucking pig?”

She slaps me!

My head snaps to the side. I stare at our reflection in the window.

She covers her mouth with her trembling hand, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’m sorry!”

I swallow but don’t look at her as I get up and walk over to the window. It’s dark outside. The only thing I can see is her reflection behind me. “I deserved it.”

“They sold me.”

I stiffen, watching her drop her head to her hands. She draws her knees up and releases a gut-wrenching sob. “They sold me, Rick. To a man old enough to be my dad. That’s why I couldn’t tell you.”

I turn slowly. This is too fucking weird and out there to be a joke. “What are you saying?”

She looks up. “That’s why I can’t be with you. Scott and Jared sold me to another man. They threaten to ruin the people I care about if I don’t cooperate. He bought me today, and I escaped from his huge fucking house. Do you think I would willingly wear this shit?”

“Have you taken drugs?” I don’t know why I ask, but the words slip out.

April rears back as if I slapped her. “I can’t believe you’re asking me that!”

“Come on…. You’re telling me you haven’t been to school for the past four days because two teachers sold you to another man?”

She gets to her feet and walks over to the door without another word, but I intercept her.

“Can’t you hear how crazy it sounds?”

She tries to get past me, but I overpower her and force her hands behind her back.

She fights against my hold. “Let me go if you don’t believe me!”

The sick thing is that my cock hardens in my pants the more she struggles. “I believe you.”

“You don’t,” she spits and then kicks me in the leg and darts for the door.

“Stop!” I growl, picking her up from behind, carrying her kicking and screaming to the bed. I throw her down and crawl on top of her, using my weight to subdue her. “I’m stronger than you, so fucking stop it! You’re not going anywhere!”

She screams, and I cover her mouth with my hand and whisper, “I believe you!”

Her blue eyes flick between mine, searching.

I place a kiss on her nose. Then her cheek. “I believe you!” Removing my hand, I kiss the corner of her mouth. “Babe, I believe you!”

She ceases to struggle. “He’s coming for me!”

I kiss her sweet lips. “He’s not getting to you!” I nudge her jaw with my nose, and she arches her neck obediently, breathing a soft sigh as I place a kiss on her throat.

“Rick…”

“Sshh!” I slide the dress off her shoulders and down her arms and chest until her perky breasts are bared to me. “You’re safe.”

She trembles beneath my touch, my tongue swirling over her rosy nipple. Her tits are a perfect handful. “I need to go see my friends. Tell them I’m okay.”

I suck on the peaked bud and squeeze her other breast with my hand. “Tomorrow. Let me make you feel good tonight.”

As I trail my lips lower and inch her panties down her smooth legs, her protests fall silent on her pretty lips. “I’m going to worship at your altar all night.”
