Shadows In Durango

Chapter 28

*****Sofia's POV*****

During our brief stand off, I could practically hear my heart beating from inside of my ears...

"Daryl went out by the way, so you don't need to worry about seeing him today." Vincent suddenly states, as I swallow the lump which was forming in my throat.

Nervous and on edge, I suddenly look around the room, tucking a wet strand of hair behind my ear to act casual.

"Is there a hairbrush I could borrow?" I find my request leaving my lips, as my tone quivers slightly - betraying my confident act.

Vincent stays silent, making a move towards a drawer before pulling one out and holding it out for me.

I take slow steps towards him, watching his smirk grow as I reach out to take the brush from his outstretched hand - shrieking loudly when he uses the opportunity to reach out and grab my wrist - pulling me closer to him and crashing me into his solid chest.

"Do you like being this close to me Sofia?" He hums, as I open and close my mouth in sheer shock of what he was doing.

He's teasing me... playing with my emotions... taunting me for how I had acted last night...

"I'm sorry... I was an idiot last night..." I find myself mumbling, as his intense stare gazes down at me - causing for me to divert my eyes elsewhere.

He knew just how to make me squirm in fear...

"Why are you so nervous around me? And why do I sort of enjoy it?" He suddenly chuckles, moving an arm around my back to lock me in place. Why was I nervous?!

Maybe because he was the most intimidating guy my age that I had ever met! He was always so arrogant and sure of himself when I was the total opposite!

"Please..." I find myself saying, unsure of what exactly I was asking for with the word as his muscular arms held me still.

"Please what darling? Please will I kiss you again?" He proceeds in a purr like tone, leaning his face down towards me as I lick my drying lips and break out into a sudden cold sweat.

What is he doing? I felt like nothing more than a toy to him at this point... something to amuse him whenever he gets bored...
