“Five seconds, Evelina.”
“It’s… It’s pitch black in here,” I blurt, my pulse spiking erratically as my body trembles with fear, excitement, chemicals, and adrenaline. I turn to glance up at him. “If…if you catch me?—”
“WhenI catch you, I’m going to fucking destroy you,” he purrs darkly, his voice eerily devoid of emotion. “I’m going tobreakthat slutty cunt. One.”
Oh my God.
“Two.”
I bolt into the darkness, with no idea where I’m going or what thehellI’m doing.
“Three.”
My hip bashes into the back corner of…maybe a couch? I scream in agony as I bounce away from it and crash to the floor, my heartbeat thundering in my ears as fire ripples over my skin.
“Four.”
Holy shit.
I scramble to my feet and lurch in a random direction, my arms thrust in front of me, my body clenching and tightening as seductive heat coils through my center.
“Five.”
There’s nothing else. No final line promising to hunt me. Just the last number, a moment of silence, and thenfootstepsthundering through the darkness.
…Right in my direction.
My throat is so tight I can’t even scream. Maybe it’s fear, or maybe it's the drugs coursing through my veins, heightening every sensation until it feels like the air itself is turning me on.
This iswildlyunfair.
Not just because he knows the layout of this place. But because every step, every heartbeat, every jangle of my nerves is dumping pure pleasure into my veins.
Every brush against a piece of furniture sends a ripple of desire teasing through my system. Every jolt as my bare feet pound against wooden floors or carpeting makes need pulse desperately between my thighs.
The screaming anticipation of his hands grabbing me from the darkness throbs harder through my body, obliterating everything in its path until it’s all too much.
My nerves give out and I crash panting to a stop against the padded arm of a leather chair.
“You win!” I blurt into the darkness, my heart pounding against my ribs as sweat clings to the small of my back. “I give up!” I'm breathless, shaking all over as the drugs fucking with my brainchemistry ignite in my veins. “Whatever you’re going to do, just do it?—”
“Gladly.”
Iscreamas a fist roughly grabs my hair and yanks me back. Hands paw at my dress, ripping it off me as I go crashing to the ground. My skin erupts in blinking neon fire as I claw at the floor, yelling as his fingers rake over my skin.
Slapping.
Pinching.
Mauling.
The darkness, the heat, the unhinged violence, the adrenaline, the drugs…it all swirls around me like black ink, dragging me down into the depths of this madness.
The insanity that I crave.
The hurt that I want.
The submission and humiliation that Ineed.
