Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 14

Brielle suddenly lost her appetite. She didn’t have the energy to listen to Spencer’s rage anymore. She went straight to her bedroom, changed her clothes, and stepped out.

Spencer was still in a raging fury, answering Lillian’s call at the same time. When he turned and saw Brielle heading out the door, he frowned, “Where the hell do you think you’re going this late? Can’t you show a little decency? Are you that desperate for a guy?!”

Brielle was already infuriated with his antics. “Whether I’m desperate or not, you wouldn’t know, would you? What’s the matter, I’m not allowed to find myself some company when you’re out with other sluts?”

Spencer’s pupils dilated slightly. In a fit of anger, he threw his phone towards her. “Say that one more time! Who are you calling a slut?!” Even now, he was defending Lillian.

The elevator doors had closed, and the phone smashed against the wall, spiderwebbing

the screen.

Brielle held back her frustration. Through the elevator glass, she could see the faint marks on her neck. She was so flustered by Spencer’s outburst that she’d left the apartment in a

low-cut top.

However, the thought that these marks were Max’s handiwork, a sweet revenge, was oddly satisfying. Everyone treated her like a pushover, but they never considered that one day this pushover would grow sharp teeth.

Feeling somewhat relieved, she got in her car, and right on cue, Aubree called. “Bri, asleep yet, or up for some drinks?”

Aubree had just returned from abroad. She was Brielle’s only real friend, and her nigh was always vibrant.

“You’re back in town?”

Starting the car, Brielle thought a drink might do her good. Her celebration had been so rudely interrupted, she’d simply celebrate elsewhere.
