Chapter 136

Alice had known Chloe and Max had drugged her. With any other man, she would have rather died. She gripped his collar.“Do you have a girlfriend?”

“No, I haven’t.” Jack felt her heavy breathing. He wiped away her tears.“You’re young. Don’t give. yourself away so easily.”

“But I like you!” She kissed him, clumsy and tentative.

Jack’s palms were sweating. He sighed, knowing she was vulnerable and influenced by the drugs. He cupped the back of her head, deepening the kiss. He was forceful, dominant, taking control.

She pushed him down, her hands trembling on his chest. He held her waist, his touch lingering. His eyes burned.“Alice, are you sure you won’t regret this?”

“I won’t regret it!”

He flipped her over, his breath hot against her ear.“Little Alice, I can’t say no to you.”

She was speechless, all her courage spent. His touch was mesmerizing. He covered her eyes, whispering, There are other ways.”

She wondered what he meant. He lifted her, carrying her into the bathroom and placing her in the tub. Cold water washed over her.

Her teeth chattered.“Jack!”

“I’m here.” He knelt beside her, his voice gentle.’T’ll always be here.”

She held his hand, enduring the cold, comforted by his presence.
