“My name is Ellis,” he muttered against my skin. “Ellis. That’s what you’re going to call me when there’s no one to hear you scream…”
Once again, I wondered whether we were hiding from the cameras on purpose. Was he trying to avoid someone seeing him with me? It was a mystery, but I had every intention of finding out what the truth was. I wouldn’t stop until they were all punished for what they were doing to me.
There was no way I’d be able to overpower Ellis, and as much as it disgusted me, I knew I had to play his game to my advantage. It would be my only chance of getting out of there, so I had to pretend to be just as enamored with him as he was with me – as if I was obsessed, desperate for him to have me. Because I knew he was desperate, his hands groping my skin and his lips kissing and biting savagely.
“You’re going to kneel for me now,” he said, letting go and grabbing my shoulders.
He didn’t even give me a chance to obey his order, instead shoving me down to my knees himself. I looked up at him, trying to mask the contempt in my eyes with the innocence and need I knew he liked to see so much. I opened my eyes wide and he laughed at me as I licked my lips.
“Can’t wait for more, can you baby?” he asked, palming his cock through his trousers.
It was hard to see in the darkened room, yet still hard to miss the sparkle in his eyes.
He unzipped his trousers painfully slowly, as if he was taunting me, getting me ready for the big reveal. And just as he was about to pull his cock out, all the lights in the room came on and we were illuminated, nearly blinded from the light. We both looked up as if on cue, and sure enough, there was a camera in the corner of the room, on the ceiling. The little light on it was flashing red.
“Fuck,” he muttered under his breath, and I watched in confusion as he zipped back up in a hurry.
“What’s going on?” I muttered, but he didn’t answer.
He wrapped his fingers around my hair and yanked me to my feet, and I cried out in pain from having my hair tugged like that. But he didn’t give a shit, marching me to the door and opening it wide. Pia was standing in outside and she looked surprised when we exited.
“Done so soon?” she asked sweetly, then looked into the room behind us and paled. “Fuck.”
“Fuck is right,” Ellis growled at her. “I thought you had things under control.”
“I…” she whispered, but he didn’t wait for her answer.
Instead, he strode up to her, still pulling my hair with one hand, and slapped her hard with the other. She recoiled from his touch, crying out and straightening back up with her eyes furious. A large red handprint bloomed on her face, but instead of focusing her anger on the man who hit her, she turned her attention to me.
“Is she really worth it?” she snarled at Ellis. “You really fucking think she’s worth all this?”
“Shut. Your. Mouth.” He punctuated each word by jabbing a finger against her chest, and Pia’s bottom lip trembled as they stared at one another. “Get her back to her room and get the fuck out of my face before I beat you black and blue.”
He thrust me towards her and I whimpered when she grabbed me. Ellis stormed off, leaving me alone with the one person who scared me more than he did.
There was something about Pia – her calculating, calm demeanor told me she was always anticipating something, always working behind my back. She had ulterior motives, I was sure of it, I just didn’t know what they were yet. But I would make it my mission to find out and use every single one of them against her.
“Come on,” she barked at me, and I followed her meekly down the hallway toward my room.
I knew better than to argue. All there was left for me to do was play the role of the girl they thought I was and do it until I found out what was really happening.
Pia opened the door to my room with her card and shoved me in there, making me stumble. For a second, I was convinced she’d leave me alone, but she walked inside after me and locked the door with her card.
“I don’t know what’s so special about you,” she muttered. “I really don’t. You’re nothing. A scrap of a girl. Too young, not even that pretty…”
She smirked. Of course I wasn’t pretty compared to what she saw in the mirror every day. She was a stunning woman, her features like a model’s, and her body stunningly curvy under the tight clothes she wore. I couldn’t compare to her. She was all woman, whereas I was just a girl. But who was she talking about? Ellis? She didn’t seem like she was jealous of me because of him. Surely they weren’t together. At the very best, they seemed like enemies. Always fighting over one thing or another.
