Chapter 25: Let Him Go

"Stop!" Vee rushed toward them, panic flooding her veins. "I’m coming. I’m coming. Please, let him go."

"Vee, no!" Cassidy managed through clenched teeth.

"Please!" she shouted. "Let him go!"

"Are you asking me for another favour, Bambola?"

"What? No. I just..." She swallowed hard. "He has nothing to do with this. Let him go."

"Doesn’t he?" Luca asked quietly, stepping closer. "You belong to me. And you let him touch you."

"I..." Her breath shook. "He’s my boyfriend. You’re my jailer."

Luca’s eyes dragged slowly down her body, over the bare thighs, the way the shirt clung to her hips. He twisted the ring on his finger.

Then he turned.

The punch landed cleanly against Cassidy’s jaw. The ring connecting with his jaw bone. Cassidy collapsed sideways, stunned, the man releasing him as he hit the floor.

"Luca!" Vee screamed. "What is wrong with you?"

She ran forward without thinking, instinct outrunning fear. Her fingers closed around Luca’s arm, solid muscle beneath.

He turned again.

His hand locked around her neck, crushing, unyielding, knowing just how much force to exert. He drove her back against the closest wall. Luca’s face was inches from hers now, eyes blazing, the calm finally gone.

"I told you," he thundered. "I warned you. Any man who looks at you like he wants to fuck you and I will pluck out their eyes. He has done more than look at you."

Panic clawed up her throat, but it wasn’t for herself.

"Please," she sobbed, gripping his wrist with both hands. "Please, just let him go. I’ll come with you. I swear. Please."

His grip loosened. "You will come with me, Bambola," he said quietly now. "Consider your three days over. But I’m not letting him go."

"Luca... please." Her strength gave out. She slid down the wall until she was on her knees, hands braced against the floor. She turned her head, eyes landing on Cassidy.

The other man’s boot was pressed against Cassidy’s throat, pinning him. Blood trickled from Cassidy’s split lip. His chest struggled beneath the weight.

Her tears came hot and fast, blurring the room, blurring Luca, blurring everything.

"Is that another favour, Bambola?" Luca asked.

Vee lifted her head slowly. Her eyes met his, raw and blazing despite the tears. "You’re a monster."

A muscle ticked in Luca’s jaw. "That doesn’t answer my question."

"Yes," she whispered.

"Vee!" Cassidy shouted hoarsely. "Don’t go. Don’t do this."

The boot pressed harder into his neck.

"Stop!" Vee cried, scrambling forward on her knees until Luca’s shoes filled her vision. "Please, Luca. You win. I’m yours. Just don’t kill him."

Luca crouched in front of her, forcing her to look at him. His thumb brushed a tear from her cheek, gentle enough to hurt.
