I didn't let her walk long, I took her by the arm and with more force than necessary I threw her on my bed. She had provoked me, she had angered me to levels that she should never have and I would not let her go as easily as she was always used to. That girl had become my little hell, it made me crazy and unhinged, it turned me on to levels that only she had achieved and it infuriated me that she was like that.
- I see you with him, you go out with that idiot and I swear I will kill him - I warned him with a thick voice loaded with the purest anger. His eyes widened, but he also smirked.
She knew that this would not be easy and she expected a fight on her part.
- He's your friend - he reminded me - and I remind you that you don't want anything with me. You made it more than clear Aiden Pride, so fuck off and stay out of my way - he warned. He got to his feet once more and started toward the exit.
I knew what I had said, it was still clear to me, but I couldn't avoid it; I made the fucking mistake of trying it and that would be my eternal punishment.
I touched the woman that I shouldn't have touched even in my nightmares and I was going to pay dearly for it, but I couldn't handle the idea of her with someone else; It killed me, made me sick and disgusted just imagining it. He also had a target hung on his back by my father and I knew that his aim would be accurate if he took a wrong step again, he showed me all his life how much he loved me, although I discovered that his hand would not shake to punish me if it failed him again.
Still, I took her arm to keep her from leaving.
- I'm not playing, don't tempt me because you know what I'm capable of - I threatened.
- It's not funny that you can have a girlfriend and you want to forbid me to go on a date. You don't want me with you, but neither with someone else - she pointed out mockingly -; ours is prohibited Aiden, we better accept it once and for all. It will be easier for both of us - he suggested and slipped out of my grip.
I let her go then, because I knew she was right.
Damn she had it!
And just that was what infuriated me the most; Dad had been right in what he warned me: having set my eyes on that woman would be my worst mistake, the punishment would be tremendous and he would not be my executioner for having made a mistake in that way.
I would be myself.
