Good.

That’s what she’d been going for. Disgusting people was her superpower.

Not really, but when she was terrified she tended to blurt out whatever she was thinking and most people were horrified.

Hey, if it meant they left her alone, she was all for it.

Why wasn’t he leaving her alone? She’d done what Rohan had told her to and messaged Freddy. He’d assured her that he’d take care of things.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” he snarled.

“So, so much. I need to go now.”

“I know your old man isn’t in there,” he said.

“Well, if you knew that, why did you ask me?” she grumbled. She’d gone through all this for nothing?

“Don’t get smart with me, Mouse. It doesn’t suit you and I will be tempted to break you.” He slowly reached up and touched her face.

Cue terror.

“Of course, I will enjoy that. You won’t, though.”

Yeah, she got that.

“I also know that if he was in that shack you live in that he wouldn’t come running to save you. Hell, he wouldn’t even roll his ass out of bed and crawl.”

It was terrifying how well he knew her father. Knew about her life.

“I’m looking for him, Mouse. When he turns up, which we know he will because a rodent always returns home, I want you to call me.”

Well. She wasn’t so sure about that rodent statement. Did rodents have a home? Wait, rats made nests didn’t they?

So maybe that’s what he meant.

“My number is on this card.” He tucked a card into the back pocket of her jeans.

He had a business card? That was so weird.

“Mouse! Are you fucking paying attention to me?” He grabbed her upper arms and shook her.

Her head banged back against the door making her cry out in pain.

“Fuck, Mouse. You don’t know what those noises do to me. I want to hurt you more so you’ll keep making them.”

Oh God.

Oh God.

Why her? Seriously. What had she ever done that people thought it was okay to push her around and bully her?

She was so fucking tired of it and she’d had enough!

Without thought, she brought up her knee straight into his dick. He let out a groan and stumbled back.

Oh no. Oh shit.

What had she done?
