It was painful enough to draw out a scream from my mouth, and much to my mortification and anger, he repeated the action, s******g hard against my other ass cheek.
I stilled in my struggles and went stiff against him, he didn't s***k me again but the burning pain on my butt lingered. He murmured something in a low tone, but I heard it just fine.
"Good girl, you're already learning."
I've never hated anyone as I did this moment.
He took us outside, there were more of his men outside, a few groups of onlookers who watched from a distance away.
I doubt any of them would come to my aid, not that they would be able to help me even if they wanted.
He led us to where a black limo was waiting.
The door was opened by one of the men dressed in a black suit. Lucian put me down for a moment, only to shove me inside the car, he entered seconds later and the door automatically clicked shut.
"Drive! " He ordered in a loud voice to the driver and the engines flared on almost immediately.
I scooted away from him, as far as the little space between us could allow, ignoring the sharp stinging sensation in my butt from his slaps.
I was consumed by a strong surge of anger, who was he to do all of this to me, to hurt Derek when he still didn't have a claim on me?
I met his brooding stare with a glare of mine.
"Bastard! You have no right to do any of this!"
The sharp way his eyes narrowed almost had me cowering.
Almost.
I was too angry right now to be afraid.
"I have every right to do whatever I want Brie, you ran away from our marriage and you're yet to be punished for it! " Came his response, he didn't yell, his words rang a promise that spread goosebumps over my body.
Brie! I didn't permit him to call me that, only Derek called me that.
Oh, God! Derek.
Was he even still alive or had those monsters killed him?
"Who is he to you?" A steely quiet voice broke the silence, I didn't have to look at him to know that he was watching me.
He's the only man I will ever love, and you hurt him! I yelled internally. I used the word "hurt", I couldn't bring myself to believe that Derek was dead, gone away from me.
"I asked a question Brie, and I won't tolerate your silence! " His voice cuts through my thought, the hard edge to it detectable.
I met his cold stare, it would be better that I lied, if Derek was somehow still alive, this would be the only way to protect him for now...From my father...as well as this frosty eyed monster.
"He's one of father's bodyguards, that's all." I didn't offer a further expansion.
A flash of something intense passed across his eyes, I had the gut feeling he was seeing right through me, detecting everything I meant to keep away from him.
"I despise being deceived, l always punish liars" His voice was soft, something about the way he spoke those words had me trembling.
Still, I stubbornly refused to offer any more explanation about me and Derek, he didn't deserve to know of the pure love and bond Derek and I share. It was ours to keep.
In a flash, the space between us was covered and he was on me. I couldn't swallow my cry of pain when he gripped my jaw hard enough to bruise.
The sharp look in his gaze was murderous.
"Tell me, Brie, do you have the habit of allowing bodyguards to kiss and lay their filthy hands on what is mind! "
His lips brushed my ears and I shivered.
My eyes widened in unconcealed shock, how did he know that.
His grip tightened as his teeth caught against my ear lobes.
"He caressed you here and you allowed him to touch what is mine!" He gritted, still capturing my ear lobes between his teeth, he shifted his hands to squeeze my waist.
"He touched your ass, no...he touched that ass that belongs to me to grind you against his limp d**k and you allowed it!" He gritted the words out like a curse. That was when he bit hard.
The pain was terrible, I cried out at the sudden burst of pain on my now bleeding ear lobes.
"And I thought you were different from every other w***e out there!" He snarled.
He suddenly shoved me away from him, a look of disgust passed across his features as though he was seeing me for the first time.
I was still sobbing from the pain while he glared at me.
There was anger in his eyes, there was disappointment, as though I had betrayed him or something.
"I'm not yours! I hate you! I'll never belong to a psychopath like you! "
A smile spread across his face, in this flash of moment, he didn't look like a predator, the smile gave him a devilish handsome look.
With some of his hair falling across his face, he had the appearance of a fallen angel.
"You were already mine from the first moment I saw you, our marriage was only delayed because of your foolishness, but you'll still get a chance to experience exactly how much you belong to me."
It sounded nothing more like a threat, which it was.
"Why are you doing all of these when you know I don't love you, I love someone else! " The words slipped out of my mouth, I didn't get a chance to regret it when the smile vanished from his face, replaced by a hardened look.
"What did you say?"
I was suddenly too scared to answer, he had been furious before, but it was nothing compared to the way his eyes darkened right now in rage.
"That bastard! " He growled and I flinched, scooting backward against the power of his rage until there was nowhere else to move.
He snaked over my neck, choking me until I saw black dots, I couldn't even scream or beg for mercy even if I wanted to.
"Have you let him between your legs? " The question came out quiet and deadly.
He was choking me, I couldn't even answer.
Suddenly, he lets go of me and I started to cough uncontrollably.
The intense murderous look and a hint of craziness remained in his eyes.
"Have you let anyone sink their c**k into my p***y, Answer me! you are still a virgin, aren't you? " I nodded in defeat still coughing.
"Good girl, I will be the first and only man who will ever spray your cunt with my seed" My ears burned in shame, I hated the triumph look in his eyes, I despised myself for not sharing my first moment with Derek. It would have been special.
Now, I was just a piece of meat for this crazy psychopath to grab.
He wasn't done yet, he met my stare, his eyes simmering with an emotion I couldn't decipher.
"And if I find out that you are lying to me.....I will kill you"
He meant those words.
His frosty eyes told me he did.
