His lips brushed against her ear, his voice dangerously low. âDid you really hear me? Do you remember everything I said?â
âYes.â
âNo.â His smirk was sharp, his tone cruel. âOnly something unforgettable will make sure you never forget my words tonight.â
What did he mean? What was he going to do?
Caroline instinctively placed her hands on his shoulders, trying to push him away, but he caught her by the waist, pulling her tightly into his embrace.
In an instant, she was pinned beneath him.
A wave of panic hit her as she realized exactly what he intended.
He wanted to claim herâto make her his.
Pure fear gripped her.
She opened her mouth, but no words came. It was as if her voice had been stolen.
And in his eyes, she saw itâundeniable, unmistakable desire.
âI remember. I⦠I really heard you. I took everything to heart,â Caroline stammered, her voice trembling. âI
wonât see Nash again. I donât want to be with him. David, youâre imagining things!â
âI donât believe you.â
Caroline quickly said, âIâm with you every single day. You know exactly where I go and who I seeâI couldnât hide anything from you even if I tried! If you donât believe me, you can watch me as much as you want. And if I ever see Nash again, may I be struck by lightning!â
She swore it. But Davidâs gaze didnât waver.
âYet you still wonât tell me what Nashâs driver said.â
âI did!â
âLies.â
A wave of despair crashed over her. Would I make it through tonight?
She had a terrible feelingâDavid wasnât going to let her go.
He wanted her to belong to him completely, with no room for escape.
Davidâs lips grazed her neck, his breath warm as he spoke. Each word sent a shiver through her, his lips teasing her skin with a featherlight touch. Her body weakened under the sensation, yet a deep fear held her captive.

âCaroline, itâs all a lie. Youâre lying to meâthere isnât a single truth in your words. You know how much I love you. You know how much I care. You know how much Nashâs presence makes my blood boil. And yet, you still hold on to the past. You still think thereâs a chance to go back to him.â Davidâs voice was eerily calm, yet his grip on her was unrelenting. âNash has Julia. You have me. Even if I were willing to let you go, Julia would never let you take her man. And besidesâ¦â
His teeth brushed against her pulse, his lips hovering over the warm, steady rhythm of her heartbeat. âCaroline, Iâm never letting you go. You keep lying to me, and I keep giving you chances to tell the truth. But you refuse. What do you expect me to do with you?â
A low, dark chuckle rumbled from his chest, the sound echoing in the stillness of the room.
Smooth. Dark. Dangerous. Trapping her in place.
âYou will live as my wife. And if you die, youâll be my widow. Do you understand?â
His voice was soft, deceptively gentle.
But everything about him at that moment felt suffocating.
âDavidâ¦â Carolineâs voice quivered. âYou donât have to be this jealous. Letâs just talk. I swear, Iâll never see Nash again. If you donât believe me, Iâll write it down, Iâll sign it, Iâll put my fingerprint on itâwhatever you need. Just tell me what itâll take for you to believe me.â
