Chapter 89
“Do you know what I did today?”
Was he delusional or did he have time to do more than slaughter my entire family?
“Yes,” I seethed.
The bastard chuckled and wiggled his finger with a ‘tsk’ sound dripping from his lips.
“No-no, not that. I assigned a pack of rogues some land inside the border to the kingdom. They have a patch where they will have everything they need including the protection of my guards. On this side of the border, they have a chance to thrive,”
He spoke like some saint trying to relay the good he had done as though he’d saved their lives.
“Why do you think that I would be at all interested in hearing about that?” I spat.
It was almost terrifying staring into his eyes now because I was learning to decipher what the different looks meant. The one that sparkled like a thousand stars in his forest green eyes had an equal amount of playfulness and malicious intent.
“Because I told them it was on your behalf, that I bestowed them with this kindness on your request,”
Which meant he could rip it from them just as easily and blame that on me as well. Anything that happened to them now would be in my name.
“You sadistic bastard! How-“
I choked on the rest of the words when he stood in a flash and grabbed my throat.
“The pack is the one that Nora belonged to, I hear you two have found common ground,” he said calmly and gritted his teeth, “you will do well to remember who you belong to. I own you, and you haven’t tasted pain yet but if you think to conspire with that whore for even a second I will invite you to a world where you will forget what it feels like to exist without wanting to rip your brain from your skull just to stop the memories from playing. I will scar your body like a fucking map of the world until you beg me for what once was,” his lips moved over mine with each threat while I fended for a breath.
“I – I didn’t-please,” I clawed at his hand, desperate for air and Darian gently released the pressure around my throat so the air came through.
When he let go I fell against the opposite sofa and grabbed the armrest while I coughed and tried to take a breath. I looked up and saw him removing the towel while I stood and tried to pretend like I wasn’t still lightheaded.
Darian tossed the towel on the floor- he walked over to the side of the sofa where his pants hung and pulled the belt from the loops.
What is he doing?
I watched as he walked closer and he pulled the belt in his hands making the leather smack together and I winced.
“Nora asked for a night out on the town- with you,” he said while he walked over.
“I didn’t know about that,”
He cocked his head to the side and looked ominously over my face.
“I believe you. She mentioned something else as well but by then my dick was so far down her throat that I couldn’t make out what it was,”
I bit down and gritted my teeth but I refused to break eye contact. I needed the small wins, they were all I had for the moment. But as true as the fate I somehow earned myself in this lifetime, as true is the promise I make to myself to take him down- even if I take myself down with him.
Darian stopped and wrapped the belt around my neck before putting it through the buckle and a screeching yelp echoed from my lips.
He smiled, dragged his hand down my side, and played with the hem before he went under my shirt

“You look good on a leash,” he smirked.
He pulled me in like a dog- I slammed into his front and he brushed my hair away from my face.
“Now you’re going to take off your clothes and ride my cock until I tell you to stop,”
“Fuck you,” I spat and glared but wish to hell that I could do more damage than a stern look.
His minty breath fanned my face when he leaned in and I smelled the citrus in his hair.
“No, puppet. I’m going to fuck you,” he said and unhooked my brah.
