“No! Please stop! Let me go,” I cry, not caring the tears are falling. Let him see the pain he is causing me.
But my tears only make him harder. I need to stop begging for someone to save me and find a way to save myself.
Think!
A gun.
He has a gun. I’m sure of it. Langston said all dangerous men carry a gun. He showed me the most likely spots. I just need a free arm.
His sloppy mouth moves to my neck, and I let him. Moaning instead of pushing him away in fear.
“I said you would like it, baby. Just give into it. Stop fighting me,” he whispers.
It’s enough to get him to loosen his grip.
I slip one arm from his grasp and grab the gun from his waistband. I aim it at his heart.
“Get away from me. Now.”
Milo grins, backing up. “You’re a fiery one.”
“I will shoot you if you touch me again. You can ask my husband; I’m a good shot.”
He grins and glances down at the ring I’m wearing on the wrong finger. “I knew you were married. Something about you told me you were off limits.”
“Then why did you come after me?”
“I like the married ones. The fighters. It’s so much more fun this way.”
I shake my head, disgusted by this man. I only thought he was a rich douchebag; I didn’t realize he was a rapist.
“Unlock the door.”
“Not without payment.”
I freeze. “I’m not sucking your dick. And I’m not letting you fuck me. You will unlock the door if you still want your cock attached to your body.” I aim the gun lower and ensure the safety is off.
“You know how to work a gun; I’ll give you that. But are you strong enough to fire it?”
“I am.”
He nods. “I have a feeling you are.”
“Unlock the door. Now.”
“Not without payment.”
“I won’t—”
He shakes his head. “I want the ring.”
“What?” I panic. Does he realize I stole his ring?
He nods in the direction of the ring I’m wearing. “It means something to you. It’s special. Something your husband gave you. If I can’t have your body, then I want the ring.”
I tremble. He can’t have the ring. This ring is Enzo’s. It’s his mother's. It means too much to him. I can’t just let him have it.
“The ring or you don’t leave. Ever. I don’t care if you kill me; you will never get out of this room alive. None of my staff have a way to override the door. You will be trapped in here forever if you kill me.”
