JESSICA

“Get out of the water, Jessica.” Grayson growled. “Or I’m going in.”

It was bad enough that he never told me about the Triad or that he never mentioned I’ll be weak when he finally marked me. Now, Grayson reduced himself into a cheating bastard.

All he’s done is lie to me.

“I’m going to make an example out of you so you can never disobey me again,” he snarled. “Out now.”

While I know Grayson is true to his words, I’m not stepping out. I turned my back to face the water until I found myself swimming at the end of the lake.

When I rise from the water, he’s staring down at me with so much rage in his gaze.

“What game are you trying to play, Jess?”

“Why do you have to ask?”

“You’re getting stubborn.”

“No you’re getting boring.” I turn my back on him, but it lasts all of two seconds. Rough hands clamp down on my shoulder and yank me around, dragging me back into his shadow. His grip is bruised, his eyes worse. “Get your dirty hands off me, you filthy rascal!”

The tremor betrays me. Heat stings my eyes, tears threatening to spill, but I refuse to look away. For a fraction of a second, the fury in Grayson’s face fractures.

He looked at the others. “Leave us. Now.”

“Why did you make them leave? Afraid I’ll spill how you’ve been fucking your adviser behind

my back?”

My question made his eyes break from mine. Turns out Grayson knew ten times more curses than I ever gave him credit for

“What the fuck did you just say?”

One minute, he’s across from me. The next, I’m slammed back against the water, his hand squeezing my throat.

Rage sparks hotter than fear. I twist, driving my knee up hard, catching him in the ribs.

He snarls, breaking his hold, but only to shove me down harder, water splashing around us in violent waves.

“Little bitch,” he growls, hair dripping, eyes feral. “You think you can win against me?”

I spit water back at him, lips curling.
