Promises

Chloe groaned, still half-asleep. “What do you want?â€? she murmured, reaching to rub at her eyes. Maybe that would clear up some confusion but her arms, like always, were pinned down by the beast.

“What do you think I want?â€? he taunted. He obviously was enjoying his time a little too much.

“Well, I want you to get off me. And I honestly don’t care what you want.â€?

“Aw, that’s too bad.â€? Jay was speaking so kindly but Chloe could see that same look in his eyes every time he had the power.

“Get off.â€? She complained, trying to push at him. Her attempts were useless, like always. Jay pulled her arms back more, crushing one arm under the hard cast. She gasped, struggling to get free.

“Say it.â€? Jay taunted again, pulling harder. She gasped again, tears springing into her eyes.

“Okay, okay. What do you want?â€?

“Revenge.â€? He whispered before yanking Chloe up from the bed. “Be happy, I’m being generous tonight. I’m not going to hurt you,” Liar. “If you do what I want without a fight. It’ll be fun. Promise.â€?
