Chapter 20 Blood For Blood
SANCIA
I lifted my chin stubbornly, holding his gaze even as my heart pounded beneath my ribcage. “Let me go, I hate you.”
He grinned. “You can hate me all you want, and unless you want that bastard dead, don't say his name in my face ever again. You know better than anyone that butchering him wouldn't be a chore to me at all,” he threatened coldly. Then he released his grip on my waist and loosened his hold on my hair.
I take a shaky breath, stepping away from him. A sliver of cold fear races down my spine because he was right; I know what he's truly capable of. I've seen it firsthand.
But if Lorenzo thought I was going to cower because of his threats, he'd better think again. And he can't use Antonio to threaten me, because I know Antonio is fully capable of protecting himself.
He might not be a Capo or an enforcer, but he's smart. I pull myself together and hide my fear.
“If you don't want to hear his name, then don't. Because I will say his name whenever and however much I want. He is the man I chose, the man who took my virginity, the man who can fuck….”
Lorenzo didn't give me any sign or warning, but suddenly I was being pushed backward. My breath whooshed as my back slammed against the wall, and soon that no longer became a concern.
The unhinged tower of pure muscles wrapped his hand around my throat and choked, cutting off my breath for a few seconds that felt longer.
My eyes widened as I reached up and clawed his hand, trying to free myself; he didn't let go until I submitted and stopped fighting him.
His hand loosened just enough for me to breathe, but he never let go as he stared at me with dark eyes. There was no smirk at the edge of his lips or amusement in his eyes when he moved closer until I could smell his cologne and feel his breath on my face. Only a darkness I remember so well that had my heart galloping.
“Do not take my levity as a weakness, Sancia; it will be the worst mistake you ever make,” he growled, his tone lethal.
“The only man who gets to fuck you is me, and if you allow anyone to take what is mine, it will be his last day. I don't share and I never will. If you doubt me, test it and see.”
His voice drops low and deep as gravel. “And if you say fuck one more time, I'll make sure you understand exactly what it means.”
My stomach fluttered, my heart hammering even louder than before “Fuck. You. Lorenzo,” I gritted between clenched teeth.
“Gladly,” he drawled as he suddenly let go of my neck.
He moved slightly back and I lashed out, trying to shove him away, but it wasn’t as easy as I expected. He was suddenly back, using his weight Lorenzo pressed me against the wall, pinning me there, while one hand held both of my wrists above my head.
His other hand sneaked under my dress and yanked down my panties. Shock stole over my breath at his audacity.
“What are…?” I started, eyes wide as a saucer.
“Checking for myself to see if you're telling the truth or just bluffing,” he growled darkly.
“You wouldn't dare,” I spat, my eyes glaring at him with hate.
“I don't bluff,” he said, eyes blank. He must be.
Lorenzo was a monster, but even he wouldn't dare to violate me right here in my parents' garden in broad daylight, where anyone could walk and see us. He's bluffing; he wouldn't dare.
“Let go of my hands,” I yell as I wonder where the fuck Sergio was? Wasn't he supposed to keep me safe from him? And the guards, what are they doing? Leaving me alone with this devil. I glanced to the right, then left, but there was no one. We were alone.
“Don't do anything stupid,” he said, then he let go of my hands. I bite my lip as I rub the sting on one wrist where he'd held me. Fortunately, it wasn't bruised.
My eyes instantly flew up when he suddenly glided his thumb over my bottom lip, then he pressed the digit between my lips and pushed deeper, his dark eyes swirling with something I couldn't define.
I didn't think of the consequences; I just opened my mouth wide and bit so hard I tasted blood in my mouth. His eyes darkened without a single sound of discomfort coming from him until I let go on my own.
A second later, I gasped, my eyes widening in shock as something alien thrusts into no man's land. Pain slices into me, my sex throbbing around his long finger.
I blinked as our eyes locked; his dark eyes were two pools of possession, his bloody thumb still in my mouth. Pain, shock, horror, and humiliation stole every breath in my lungs and set my cheeks aflame. Lorenzo had just taken what I had been told my entire life to protect.
The one thing that could decide a girl's fate in my world, and he just took it without any fear or hesitation. I was too mortified, too shocked to say a single word, with Lorenzo's finger lodged inside my throbbing sex where even I had never dared venture.
“Just as I thought, too tight,” he drawled, still holding my gaze with eyes so intense it made my heart pound. He did something right then, moving that long finger in a way that made me whimper and had me widening my eyes even more than they already were. His thumb ghosted over my clit.
Any brain cells I might have after confronting him and challenging him seem to have died; when he leans even closer, his mouth at my ear, his breath hot, sending an involuntary thrill in my blood, my pulse hammering wildly.
“You're a good liar, Sancia; it's really impressive. For a while back there, I almost believed you,” he drawled, his finger still inside me. He inches back and stares me in the eyes again.
“Now that we've cleared that out of the way. Your pussy best remains this way until I take what was rightfully mine, or else.”
He grinned darkly and withdrew his finger from my sex; my face flamed hotter with the smear of blood on his middle finger, which he brought close to my eyes.
“I'll say this is proven enough. You are a virgin, and you're fucking mine.” he pulls out his mangled thumb from my mouth and rubs the blood on my lips. Then he takes a step back, still staring at me. He brought the evidence of my innocence to his mouth and sucked.
“Blood for blood, Sancia, and yours tastes fucking delicious,” he grinned, back to his unhinged self. A shiver ran the length of my spine as I felt the ache in my core more acutely, even though he'd taken his finger away.
