20. Jasper

Waking up from the best sleep I've had in weeks, I'm sore. My arse is throbbing and thoughts of last night crash into my mind, of Reece fucking me–violating me–with his gun. Rolling over I expect to find him still next to me, but Reece is gone.

I'm angry at him for skipping out sometime during the night after that. Stupid me thought something had changed between us, that he actually cared.

Stumbling out of bed I tug on a pair of lacy undies, rubbing them against my dick for a moment to feel the slight scratch on my skin. It sends a shiver through me, and I think about getting myself off by rubbing my dick with them on. But instead, I decide to confront Reece.

I dress quickly and go out to my Aston Martin to drive to the other side of Vemore. It scares me being on his side–the rough side–of town. I'm on edge, gripping the steering wheel tightly as I'm driving around, my eyes boggling at the sheer depravity of what I'm witnessing happening on the streets of the Montserrat side of Vemore.

Gettingto his university I park the car and slide out. It's stupid, but I ask around for Reece. A pretty girl tells me his exact room number, which causes a pang of jealousy to hit me. I shouldn't be feeling jealous. It's a sin–most definitely one of the seven deadly sins–and I'm already going to hell for mine.

I go to his room, knocking softly on the door. It's only a minute or so of me standing there when the door swings open and I'm face to face with an annoyed Reece.

He doesn't even say hello, instead, he snaps, "What are you doing here, Jasp?"

I don't give him a greeting in return. "I had to see you after last night," I admit, feeling my cheeks heat with the recall in my mind of what we did together.

"Yeah, well, I"m busy. About to head out on a job."

"Oh, well I"ll go then. I"m sorry I barged in."

I turn to leave but Reece grabs my arm and pulls me back for an intense kiss.

Breaking the kiss, Reece asks, "How"d you find my room?"

"Asked a few people," I admit, blushing.

"You dickhead, Capullo," Reece berates, infuriated. "You think people don"t know who you are?"

I look down at my feet, not able to meet his annoyed glare when I confess, "I didn"t think. I just wanted to see you."

"Well, that was stupid," he taunts. He shakes his head, scoffing. "Now I gotta sneak you out."

"I"m sorry," I stammer, giving him a death glare. "You left without a word during the night after you violated me."

He scoffs again. "You fucking loved it."

"Fine, I did, but I hated that it was you who gave me that pleasure."

"The greatest pleasure comes from hate, Jasper," Reece rasps, picking up his gun, and tucking it into the side of his jeans.

"Is that the same gun?"

"Only one I have."

"Was it um?" I question, not sure of the words that are stuck on the tip of my tongue.

"Um what, Jasper? Use your words," Reece taunts.

I seethe, annoyed that he's taunting me when he knows exactly what I'm asking him.

"Was it loaded last night when you used it in me?"

Reece shakes his head, a smirk upturning the corner of his mouth.

"I may be a monster, but I didn"t fuck you with a loaded gun, Capullo. I put the safety on anyway out of habit."

"Oh ok good," I mumble, feeling like an idiot for asking.

Reece's smirk becomes wider, and he quirks his eyebrow. "Want me to?"

I gulp and Reece kisses me without warning. "Don"t be scared, Jasp. You gotta trust me," Reece taunts, winking at me.

"I don"t trust you. I hate you."

"I hate you too, and right now you"re going to cause me to hate you more if I"m late for this job."

"Oh," I gasp, shifting aside, my eyes catching on something moving under the covers of the bed behind Reece.

"Reece, something is moving in your bed," I inform him pointing towards the small mound that's just covered.

Reece laughs as a black cat emerges, stretching its front paws out and arching its back.

"Oh, it's just my boy, Raven."

Reece picks him up, petting it in long strokes from its head to the end of its tail. The cat likes the touch, leaning into Reece's hand.

He holds him out towards me, teasing, "Say hello to my pussy, Capullo."

I shrink back shrieking, "Get that thing away from me! Cats scare me."

Raven hisses, his black eyes staring me down as he stretches out his claws to lunge at me.

"Eeek, he"s attacking me!" I shriek, stepping backwards to get away from the beast.

Reece laughs again, tipping his head down to kiss the cat"s head. "He likes you," he says to me before asking the cat, "don"t you Rave?"

The cat miaows, and licks Reece"s fingers as he puts him back down on the bed.

He takes my hand then, yanking me out the door.

"We have to go, Jasp. And seeing as you're not leaving of your own accord you"re coming with me."

I gasp in shock, barely able to stay upright as we're rushing through the hallway, me being dragged by Reece hastily until we're out in the car park and Reece shoves me into the passenger seat of his Bugatti.
