“Alex, what’s wrong?”

Alex finally turned around to face her, but his face was livid. Without warning, he lunged and grabbed her by the throat. His eyes glinted with murderous intent, echoed by the tightness of his grip.

Briley’s eyes practically popped out of their sockets from shock. She clawed at his hand, her face already bright red from the loss of air.

Briley began to claw at his arm, but no matter how much she struggled, she couldn’t move him.

She opened her mouth to try to explain, but no sound came out. At last, Alex let go and tossed her aside. His face was filled with disgust, as if he had just touched something filthy. Briley fell onto the bed, coughing violently.

“No,” she choked out, tears streaming down her face. “It’s not what you think! Last night, you were the one who refused to let me go…” But Alex wouldn’t hear any of it.

He tugged at his tie, his expression menacing.
