Red cups. Sweat. Loud music.

Echo didn't know what she was getting herself into when she agreed to attend the biggest party of the weekend. All dolled up and clueless of what's about to come, she glanced at her friends who immediately left her for college boys.

Who wouldn't want a fling for a wild night out?

In her 19 years of existence, believe it or not, she has never been to a party like this. Drugs and alcohol were everywhere. She knew she needed a bottle of vodka to soothe her nerves. This was the main reason why her friends invited her. She was always anxious around crowds. They wanted her to loosen up.

Well, a few shots might've been the trick.

It didn't take long for her to sway her body to the music. For a moment, she didn't feel like herself. Echo felt like a bird that can hog all the freedom that the world has to offer, but that wasn't what the shadows behind curtains wanted.

Freedom.

He wanted her to have anything but that. If he could cage her inside his hammering chest, he would've done that by now. His hands were itching to run his calloused hands across her frail body. He could watch her all night, but what he wanted more was to wrap his hands around her throat and choke her into submission. These morbid thoughts were hard to suppress.

After seeing his muse stumble with glassy eyes, he took this opportunity to ground his crouch on her plump behind as she danced like the vixen she was. She was small compared to his towering body. The more she moved her hips against him, the more he wanted to destroy her petite body.

He dipped his hands inside her skimpy dress. This filthy cloth was on his way. He wrapped her legs around him as they went upstairs to fulfill what the night was made for.

Echo felt herself fall on a soft mattress as the stranger ravaged her lips until they became swollen. Her mind was a spinning mess as she stripped down. She was clueless about what she was doing. Maybe it was the drugs and alcohol that were taking their tolls on her, but whatever it was, it felt good.

He eyed his little prey, his hands reaching for his shaft as he grew harder at the sight of her. Before she knew it, she was positioned on all fours. This fueled his desire to take her even more. He wrapped his fingers on her hair as he buried his length deep inside of her. Her moans were intertwined with his groans.

He gently flipped her to stare at her emerald eyes as he plowed deeper. He didn't miss the chance to record every second of it. The flash blinded her vision, but it made her feel hotter. She felt alive with every thrust of his hips against her.

Little did she know she became his prisoner the moment she was out of her senses and ready for his use.

He knew she wouldn't remember any of this, but he planned to brand this in her mind until she succumbed.
