“You are nothing to me, Katya. You’re lucky I haven’t killed you like your whore mother.”
The door slamming shut made her jump. Her arms still tingled from where the guards gripped her.
“Katya.” Jorge grinned as he approached her. “You shouldn’t have run from me. Now I’m going to show you how ruthless I can be.”
Katya screamed as he as the back of his hand connected with her face. The pain burned through her jaw causing her to see stars.
She whimpered, “Please, don’t do this.”
“I’m going to ruin you for all other men. Your precious Matias won’t want you after I get done with you.”
Katya fought, jerking her body against him, but he was stronger and was able to tie her legs to the bedposts. The tears flowed as she watched him withdraw a silver blade from his boot. The metal glinted in the sunlight streaming through the opened window. Slowly he cut away her leggings and panties, exposing her most private parts to him.
“Stop.” She whispered between the tears as she watched him shed his clothes.
His fist wrapped around his girth, proudly jutting from his body. She watched as he covered his cock in a condom and moved toward the bed.
“This makes my cock ache with need—but I don’t want your tainted pussy infecting me. Still, seeing you tied up and ready for me makes me want to come hard. Once I am done, you’ll be begging for me to fuck you.”
Katya closed her eyes as he climbed her body with his. She conjured up images of Matias, praying he would still want her after this. She whimpered and cried as Jorge rutted into her. Nothing was going to be the same after this. Her father may have sold her to the devil, but her soul belonged to Matias.
“Yourbrotherwillbehere shortly.”
“My brother is coming here?” Antonio sipped from the glass he held in his hand.
“Yes. When Cristian called him, he said he would fly out immediately—that was last night. Apparently, they’ve been searching for you for several weeks. What’s the last thing you remember?”
“I remember leaving the club. I was there helping Massimo’s fiancée plan for their wedding. Vincenzo called me upset because his new chef was getting under his skin. He asked me to meet him at the restaurant. Madison and I were almost done, so I left. I remember nothing after walking out of the bar and getting into my car.”
“They found your car a block from Bellissimo. It had been wrecked and blood was found inside.”
“What the fuck?” Antonio shook his head. “Why can’t I remember?”
“The doctor checked you and found a needle mark in the back of your neck. If I had to guess,” Matias said as he sat down in a chairacross from him, “someone was inside your car and jabbed you with it once you started to drive. It would explain the damage to your car. I suspect it knocked you out, causing you to crash.”
“ANTONIO!” The front door crashed open, revealing a panicked female. She rushed into the living room, nearly knocking over Matias who had stood up from his seat.
“Madison?” Her arms wrapped around him as she sobbed into his shirt. “Easy there, killer, I’m still sore.”
“Oh my God. I’m sorry.” She let go and stepped back.
“Madison, baby. Let Antonio breathe.” A massive man walked in and stuck his hand out for a handshake. “I assume you’re Matias.”
Matias gripped his hand in his. “And you must be Massimo. Welcome.”
“Thank you!” Feminine arms startled Matias as they wrapped around his body. “You brought him back to us.”
“Matias. This is my fiancée, Madison. She wouldn’t stay home when I told her why I was coming. She and Antonio have a bond I can’t stand between. There was no stopping her.”
“I understand completely. You’re very welcome. I hate we are meeting this way, though.It seems we have some business to discuss. Dmitri took something of yours, and now he has something of mine.”
“Your lithium?” Massimo questioned as he tugged Madison by his side.
“That motherfucker can keep the lithium. He took something far more precious to me.”
“Far more precious than lithium?”
“Yes. He took the woman I love.”
