My heart jumps out of my chest when he leans even closer me. He grabs my chin and brings my face closer to him, “do you know who’s the kidnapper here? It surely isn’t you. You’re my prisoner; you do not get to ask any questions. You don’t get to speak unless I tell you to either.”

“But. . .”

He moves his hand to my neck, and I swear that I stop breathing. His intoxicating scent is affecting my senses; I feel like I’m losing my mind. I can feel everything clearly; his fingers are long and warm and feel like fire against my skin. I close my eyes, and my lips part. His touch is awakening so much desire in me, and I wouldn’t say I like it; I hate my body for betraying me at a time like this. This feeling isn’t something that I can easily control, but I have to fight it. This man may be my mate, but he wasn’t a good one; he wanted me to suffer. A low growl from the back of his throat prompts me to open my eyes again; once more, his beautiful face draws me entirely in. I feel a hatred for the moon Goddess at this exact moment; why make me feel this way for a man like him? I can see it in his gaze; he isn’t trying to hide the truth from me, the truth that he wants me to know that he can’t wait to bring me the most pain possible.

“What did I just say to you?” he demands. “Did I not tell you that you are not in a position to be asking any questions?”

I feel my bottom lip tremble with frustration, “please. . .”

“Shhh,” he cuts me off. “Save whatever it is you have to say. I’m not going to let you go, not anytime soon. No one’s coming to save you either, so how about you keep quiet so that I won’t have to punish you?” he threatens.

He lets go of me abruptly and walks back to starting the fire.
