“Y-yes,” she stutters.
Blind rage consumes me, and I punch the bed, barely missing Victoria’s face.
“You fucking Jake?”
She nods, cowering in terror.
I leave the bed and grab her cell off the dresser, formulating a plot of my own. Victoria sits up, covering her nudity with her blanket.
“What’s the code?”
She tells me and I type it in. I scroll through her contacts and shoot Jake a text.
Maverick:Parents aren’t home and I’m horny.
Jake: Sweet, on the way to pound that pussy.
Figures the offer of sex would get him here in a hurry.
Maverick: Come on up, the front door is open.
“What did you do?”
“It’s a surprise,” I respond sardonically, flashing her a Cheshire smile. “Where’s your stun gun?”
I remember her having one.
“Top drawer to the left,” she answers, voice trembling.
I retrieve the weapon. “Stay still and keep quiet. Understand?”
“Yes.”
Twenty minutes later, my target arrives, and I hide behind the door.
“Ready to get dicked down, girl?” Jake drawls, entering the bedroom.
I zap the asshole on his neck, and he squeals, dropping like a rock. Victoria whimpers, drawing her knees to her chest.
“Turn around you piece of shit,” I bark.
He rolls to his back, holding his palms up in surrender, but I’m not interested in capitulation. I want his fucking blood. I deliver a swift kick to his nose, crushing cartilage and bone. Jake howls, clutching the mangled appendage. Still, my thirst for blood isn’t appeased. I lift my foot and begin stomping on his abdomen repeatedly.
“Please, stop,” Victoria sobs, rocking back and forth.
“Shut the fuck up.” I point at her. “You’re done at Montgomery Academy.”
She cries even louder, knowing I don’t make idle threats.
I kneel beside Jake. “Go near Cocoa again and I will bury you.”
“Okay, man,” he croaks, grimacing in agony. “You got it.”
“I’m glad we came to an understanding.”
I ram the stun gun against his crotch and zap him a second time for good measure. He bays at the top of his lungs and pisses himself. Now I’m satisfied.
I lie on my bed, curled into a ball on my side. Trey Songz’s melodic voice belts from my cell phone’s speaker.
