But knowing they have her. Listening to JD take what I’ve spent years dreaming of, all the while convincing myself I couldn’t have, is the worst thing they could do.I’d sooner have them kill me than force me to listen to this.

A loud crack fills the air before Alana screams. My breath catches and my fists curl tighter at the thought of him hurting her.

Anger explodes inside me and before I know I’ve moved, I’m on my feet pacing back and forth as her howl of pleasure rocks through the cell.

She likes it.

Of course she fucking does.

Sinking my fingers into my hair, I pull until it burns, punishing myself for enjoying this.

My cock weeps, and my balls ache. I’m desperate for a release, but I refuse to do it.

If I’m right and they’re watching…

I shake my head as her cries of pleasure and demands for more continue.

I can picture them so clearly just from the basic description JD gifted me.

Her arms pressed against the wall, her ass sticking out while he’s on his knees between her thighs, feasting on what I’ve denied myself all these years.

I told myself that I was a better man because I abstained. That I was a better man for her because I wasn’t like those of her past.

But here she is being the whore Victor accused her of being.

I didn’t want to believe it. I don’t want to believe it. My sweet little Alana isn’t a whore. She can’t work for Victor and do his bidding.

But as much as I try to convince myself of that, I know it’s true.

Is this a job?

Is she here not because she’s finding intel for us but for him?

I continue pacing, realizing that the reason she’s here doesn’t really matter. It all ends in the same place.

I failed her.

All the promises I made, the future I painted.

I couldn’t deliver on any of it.

She’s almost back where she started, being used and abused by the cunts that run the streets of this town.

“Oh fuck, Julian,” Alana screams. I’ve no idea where they are, but I do know that she’s loud enough to wake the dead.

It leads me to wonder where Reid is.

“Yes. Yes. Yes,” she chants.

Squeezing my eyes closed, I try to block everything out as my blood turns to lava.

I swear it burns straight through my veins and explodes out through my skin.

“JULIAN,” she cries as he finally pushes her over the edge.

Every single muscle in my body is pulled tight as I have little choice but to listen to her ride out the waves of pleasure he’s bestowed upon her.

Jealousy like I’ve never felt before surges through me. My knees buckle and I crash back to the bed as her release fades to nothing but a memory and a lingering high.
