But what choice did I have?

His fingertips skimmed the curves of my breasts, and a small breath of air escaped me. The worst part was that I liked it, knowing that I had no choice, that it thrilled me to have him touch me like this.

“Spread your feet,” he said. I did as I was told, telling myself that otherwise, he would have made me. And at least this way, the search would be over faster. Then I could be alone. Alone with this dusty guitar. Where I could pretend like I wasn’t in a basement, trapped by the infamous crime family of Sage City.

Obeying him had nothing to do with the fact that I was scared. That I wanted him too.

He reached down, skimming over the soft hair of my mound. His cock twitched into me, and I huffed. Twisted my mouth, tried to pretend like his twitching cock didn’t turn me on.

“You seem to be enjoying this,” I muttered.

“I’m not the only one,” he said, “Am I?”

He ran his finger along the inside of my slit, sliding with ease, my arousal betraying me. I closed my eyes, begging this to be over, so I wouldn’t have to face the shameful fact that I wanted my abductor to finger me, that I was that pathetic.

But he skimmed the finger along the slit, then lifted it to his lips. He licked the moisture off, locking eyes with me. Making me watch him. He never penetrated me. Wouldn’t give me that mental escape.

He turned away, heading towards the door. “I wouldn’t break that if I were you, little one,” he said. “The only thing worse than being collateral for a debt to a mob boss, is breaking that mob boss’s toys when you’re under his roof.”

My heart sank. A prized possession, like a forgotten instrument, meant more to the Adlers than my dignity. Than my humanity.Than my life.

To a man like Ethan Adler, I was dispensable. A woman he could use and discard. A person he could bury in the ground. The desire between us didn’t give me a better chance at life. It only meant that for one moment, Ethan was entertained.

I was nothing more than a pawn for my dad’s bad decisions.

But at least this meant that Dad was still alive.
