Chapter 10- Pump sense into him

Athena

I lift my head, my eyes blazing with something between anger and devastation.

But he doesn't care.

She provoked me. That's what I want to say, but I realize it won't matter. He won't believe me. Maybe he never has.

"Say it." His voice is ice-cold, sharp, and cutting through me like a blade.

Alexander King has always been ruthless. Calculating. Cold. But this- this side of him is new even to me.

This is the look of a man who always gets what he wants, and right now, my humiliation is what will soothe his anger.

she is a pretentious bitch and it's annoying how Alex turns a

blind eye.

My lips press together. I'm stubborn, always have been. The urge to fight back

burns in my veins, but his grip tightens on my

wrist, a silent reminder that fighting him won't get me anywhere.

His face tells me I won't leave this place until I apologize.

How degrading is that?
