I wrench my face from his palms. “Get out, you sick bastard,” I spit. “If you don’t leave right now, I will scream until the police get here.” My chest is heaving with rage. How dare he brand me as his? How dare he imply that he still controls my life? In that moment I hate him more than I love him. His lips curl into his signature wicked grin, and he steps back. “I will give you what you want, for now Navia.” He walks slowly out the door and pulls it shut.
My entire body shakes with anger. Tears spill down my cheeks. I cry because I know he is right. I will never escape him. I don’t think I want to. Deep down I know that I really am his.

Three weeks have passed since my encounter with Jason in my apartment. Now, I can’t walk through the door without remembering him taking me in that same spot. I was doing so well until I laid eyes on him again. Now I’m back at square one. I don’t leave my apartment unless it is to go to work. I ignore Patrick’s calls and texts. I can’t go out with him and pretend to be happy. I have sunken back into depression. I sit at my kitchen table and stare aimlessly at the wall.
I am tempted to pick up the phone and call Jason, just to hear his voice. Where is he, anyway? I thought he would have found his way back here by now. He did declare that I am his, and he will never let me go. The bastard. I still hate him for it. Yet, I sit here and pine over the man. I long to feel his naked body pressed against mine. Hell, I even long for him to tie me up and fuck me senseless. A secret part of me wants him to show up and make me scream like he said. I’m starting to think I’m just as depraved as he is. Except I’m a masochist and he is a sadist. My God, we make a perfect match. I close my eyes and imagine his hands caressing my skin, going from gentle to rough in an instant. I sigh. No one has ever made me feel the way he has, and I suspect no one ever will.
Chloe tells me to call him because it is obvious that I can’t get over the man. I think I should take her advice. Who knows how long it will take for him to pay me another visit? It could be another month. I might just go insane with want and longing by then. I pick up the phone and dial his number. He doesn’t answer. Where the hell is he? He’s probably still angry with me for kicking him out of my apartment right after we had sex. But he has only himself to blame for that. I can take it no longer. I grab my handbag and head out the door.
About an hour later, I am pounding on Jason’s door. He doesn’t answer, so I knock harder. I am prepared to kick down the damn door if I have to. He yanks the door open sporting a deep scowl. “What?” he growls. His eyes widen when he sees that it’s me. He blinks twice and looks down at the glass in his hand. “I think I drank too much,” he mutters.
“For God’s sake, Jason, it’s me. I’m really here.” I push my way inside. My nose wrinkles; he reeks of alcohol. He looks like he has not shaved in days, maybe weeks. He is a mess. He looks much like how I feel. He rests his glass down on the glass center table.
“What brings you here?” he asks softly. “Not that I’m not happy to see you.”
I waste no time. “I’m miserable without you, Jason. I have tried to convince myself over and over that I don’t need you. But I do. I need you, depraved and twisted mind and all.” I step closer to him. “I find myself longing for you to tie me up and hurt me.” His eyes widen; I think he is speechless. I find that very amusing. I have never seen him speechless before. “I want to be with you, and if that means embracing every dark, perverse thing that you are capable of, I will do so.”
“Are you sure about that, Navia? Do you really think you can accept every part of me?” His eyes peer into mine, searching for any sign of uncertainty.
“I’m sure.” I stand on the tips of my toes to reach his lips with mine. I wrap my hand around his neck and pull his head down to mine. His hands remain at his sides. I urge his mouth open with my tongue, and he lets me in. I feel his body relax and his hands lift to snake around my waist. We kiss with renewed passion for I don’t know how long. I finally pull away from him to take a breath. “I’ve missed you, Jason. I don’t know why I walked away in the first place. I love you.”
He swallows, “I love you, too. I’m glad you found your way back to me. I don’t think I can live without you either, Navia.”
My lips curve into a smile. “I’m happy I did too. Extremely happy.” I look into his eyes with the same smoldering intensity that he would deliver. “Now take me to your bedroom and do your worst.”

Trapped In His World
Entitled: A Bad Boy Romance
Excerpt from Entitled: A Bad Boy Romance
I step into the private restroom, take a deep breath, and call my friend.
“I can’t do it,” I rush before Monique has the chance to pop out a greeting. “I can’t spend the evening with him. I just can’t.”
The tiled bathroom floor receives the brunt of my agitation, as pacing seems to calm my nerves a bit, but not enough.
“Calm down,” she orders. “What did he do? I got bail money under the mattress, if I have to come beat his ass.”
“He’s been a perfect gentleman,” I nearly yell in disbelief. “His father had me pumped up to meet this pompous, anger-filled miscreant, and Devlin is nothing of the sort. He bought me clothes, paid for hair and makeup and a limo just to have me stand by his side while he showered me with compliments all night!”
“The dog,” Monique exhales sarcastically. “I’m going to tell you like Ms. Agnes would—carry yourself right back in there and enjoy that man.”
“You don’t understand. I can’t do that. He’s been too sweet for me to keep leading him on.”
“So he’s getting to you?” Monique says. “It’s alright to care about him as a person. You’re helping him become better.”
I shake my head.
I have crossed so many lines already.
“I have to tell him what I do and why I am here. I need to confess,” I say.
I look at myself in the mirror.
“And what about Ms. Agnes? What about getting the office space that you need?” she says. “You’ve more than outgrown that broom closet at the community center. Focus on the goal.”
A knock at the door startles me.
“You all right in there?” Devlin’s smooth voice, and the image of his tall, handsome body leaning against the door, coming to check on me, cause the flutters return as though they’d never been absent.
“Why does he keep be
ing so nice?” I whisper to Monique.
Devlin knocks again.
“Ayron,” he calls.
“He’s outside of the door,” I snap into the phone while searching through the small space for a window, porthole, trap door or something. “I can’t face him again, Mo.”
“Do I need to call an ambulance?” he asks.
“I’m all right, Devlin,” I squeak.
“You can do this, Ayron,” Monique reassures. “The ends will justify the means.”
Ending the call with Monique, I open the door to Devlin.
“Is everything all right?” He examines me, his gorgeous brows furrowed. He places a steady hand on my cheek. “I thought you may have done a disappearing act on me, until coat check said they saw you slip in here.”
“I’m fine,” I stutter, lost in the feeling of his caress.
“I wish that I could say the same.”
“What’s wrong?” It is my job to worry about him, to comfort him.
“I need you. This—” His mouth is against mine before I can speak.
If my mind would have allowed me to protest, I would have, but not telling myself the truth is futile. I want him.
His skillful tongue breaches the cavern of my mouth, mapping the precise route to elicit moans. Heat courses through me. Devlin had skyrocketed me to a new place of pleasure with just the tangle of his tongue against mine.
In a swift motion, he hoists me against the wall and releases my breast from the strapless gown. His hot tongue trails kisses down my neck onto my chest until capturing my hardened nipple. Each suckle lulls me further into a dream world. His world, and I am ready to sign up for citizenship, allow him to plant his flag in my fertile soil and claim me.
Locking my legs around him, I feel the full rise of his hardness between my thighs, and I water at the thought of how good he could make me feel with other parts of his body if he works his tongue this well.
I give in to the indulgence, a scorching shot of desire for this model-built man damaging my self-control.
He tastes as good as he looks, and feels even better. Our tongues collide, and I am at a loss for words. I can only moan.
Devlin moves his zipper loose and sanity begins to seep in.
I tear my face from his.
“I can’t,” I pant. “I can’t do this.”
His ragged breaths fall against my neck as he nuzzles the crevice.
“No worries, babe,” he whispers between kisses. “I’ll take care of you.”
I wiggle and motion for him to let me down.
“This isn’t right,” I say.
Devlin helps me to my feet and I fall against him, resting against his heaving chest and thumping pulse.
He encapsulates me with his arms.
“I’m not out to just hit it and quit it,” he explains, placing a kiss on my head. “I have never met a woman as caring and wise and as beautiful as you.”
I look into his eyes.
“Then there is no rush,” I remind him. “Good things come to those who wait. You agreed to my thirty-day trial period.”
He punctuates his compliance by drawing in a long breath.
I step out of his embrace and fix my clothing. He tucks and straightens his clothing as well.
“If that’s what it takes, then I’ll wait,” he exhales with a shake of his head.
I gather my emotions and willpower before exiting.
