The Token 8: Kiki: a Billionaire Dark Romantic Suspense
““I’ll hurt her, Jewell,” he says in a voice thickened by his usual rage. Thwack, punch, rattle. “And there’s not a fucking thing you can do about it!”
I clench my eyes, arms wrapped around my knees; if I ignore him he’ll go away. He always used to.
But it’s different this time. Faith came. She knew something was wrong and she came.
I listen to her wail in the background, sweat beading on the tender part of my upper lip as I roll it in my mouth to keep from crying out. I thought I co...uld hide.
I thought it would end if I ignored it.
I kept the secret, but now, as my stepbrother assaults the only friend I’ve ever had, I squeeze my head between my knees and shake with my silent sobbing.
It’s me he wants to hurt. It’s me he’ll punish in this horrible moment of suspended time; Faith is merely the vehicle.
Faith is in the wrong place at exactly the wrong time.MoreLess
