The Payback

Her temper shot through the roof when he whispered those disgusting words in her ear. Blinded by rage, she raised her hand to strike him yet again, hard and raw. But before her hand could achieve its goal, it was stopped mid-way. Danzel glared her down while squeezing her wrist tightly. She returned his daunting stare with her own defiant glare.

"I would think twice before repeating the same mistake if I was you, Inessa Lavigne," he hissed in her face. 

Tears rolled down her eyes but she continued to match his glare with her own. He smirked conceitedly when he noticed her lips trembling and her nose flaring. She was trying hard to not break down in front of him.  

"Let it go. You are not that strong," he leaned and mocked her with a smirk. She pulled her hand from his grip and tried to push him away but his mountainous frame refused to budge. She tried again and this time, he grabbed both her hands and pinned them beside her head. She gasped in shock. He moved closer, so close that she felt his hot and ragged breath tickling her moist lips. His intense blue orbs were locked with her light brown ones. 

Her breath got stuck in her throat when he pushed forward, he pinned her against the wall with his muscular. body, eliminating all the distance between them. She could feel the toned abs against her soft body. 

"Why this play now? You were not pushing me away when I was tongue-fucking you a few days ago?" he gritted out, annoyed.

For years, he had kept his demons locked inside him. For years, he restrained himself from claiming her. For goddamn years, he saw her as a far-fetched dream. But not anymore, not when she was right here, in his arm's reach. Not when he could have her now without any restrictions.

He will have her all to himself. 

Her face fell when he said that. How with a few words he had turned that special moment into a disgrace. 

Before that incident, Inessa was convinced that she can never get intimate with anyone due to her fear. But in that moment, when his fervent lips glided down her skin, her fear melted away. His sweet kisses and soft caresses enkindled her withering spirit, emboldened her timid heart, and revived her passion. It was insane, but the way he had held her close to him, it felt so intimate and assuring. It felt as if he would never let her fall.   

But how wrong was she.  

His lips were an inch away from her own. His closeness was giving her no comfort, if anything, it was making her anxious. He looked so dangerous and animalistic, ready to pound on her and devour her. Why did he turn into this?

"and when I had you beneath me, bare and open" his words were stinging her like a snake bite. She clenched her jaw and struggled against his mighty grip. 

He let go of her one hand to wrap his arm around her waist. In a swift motion, he tugged her waist flush against his pelvis, letting her feel his erection against her belly. Her eyes widened in shock. 

"I am looking forward to finishing our unfinished business, tonight," she gulped, noticing desire swirling in his blue orbs. She shook her head. 

"No?" he quirked his brow in question. She shook her head again. Danzel smirked deviously. 

He couldn't understand why was she making so much fuss about it when she had done it, not with one but with two men. Two men he knew of, only she knew how many men she had whored around. Jealousy flared inside him in full force. How many men had touched her, kissed her, fucked her?   

"Either Tonight, you will be in my bed, or tomorrow your entire family will be six feet under the ground," his countenance turned serious as those infuriating thoughts invaded his head. She gave him an accusatory glare which he found nothing but amusing. 

It was insane. He knew he should kill her for conspiring against his brother. He would have in a beat if she was someone else. But that wasn't the case. It was her. Inessa. His Inessa. The girl he had longed for. All he ever wanted and ached for since he had laid his eyes on. And now that he had her, how could he just let her go again? He wasn't capable of that. His demons saw it as an opportunity of claiming her and he took it, unapologetically. Yes, he will torture her for killing his brother, will break his soul but he wouldn't let her die, not now, not ever. 

She wasn't going to go down without a fight. This man was pure evil and downright filthy. How did she ever let him touch her? Why did she ever let him get close to her?  

She tried to make some distance between them but he was hell-bent on keeping her glued to him. It was one of those moments when he would surrender to his desires. Her fragile body felt so nice against his tough frame.

She punched his chest with her tiny fist and shook her head. She will not. 

Danzel clenched his jaw in response. Her feeble punches didn't bother him, what annoyed him was her refusal. 

He didn't say anything, he backed a step away from her, giving her space to breathe, and placed his phone against his ear. 

Inessa watched him in confusion. 

" Finish the Monets. Start with the boy," he instructed while staring into her eyes. The color drowned down Inessa's face when realisation dawned upon her.

Louis.  

Aghast, she shook her head vigorously and reached him in two large strides. She gripped his arm and looked up at him with pleading eyes. 

His brows knitted down. He roughly grabbed her elbow and looked down at her in anger. 

"Why? It's okay to kill my family but not to kill yours?" he spat venomously      

She joined her hands and pleaded to him. 

"You know what I want," he stated curtly.

She felt so helpless. So alone. Her heart was aching for her best friend, pleading for him to come back and save her. He would have protected her like he always did. Where was he when she needed him the most? She needed him to protect her from his monster of a brother.
