Chapter 321: Olena - The maze 3

He starts groping me while he rocks his hips against me, and I feel him getting hard as I whimper in fear. I know I should fight him, or at least scream for help, but my body is like a statue, because it still remembers what would happen if I refused him. So I stay still, hoping this will pass soon and that I can return to Artemiy and Vasiliy, praying that their love for me will be enough to put me back together once more.

He grabs the front of my coat and yanks it open, the buttons popping free as he groans, “I bet you didn’t think we’d be reunited here of all the places in the world, but it must be fate.” His right hand slides between my legs, cupping me through my jeans, while his other hand squeezes my breast so hard a cry of pain rises in my throat. “You’ve always been such a lying slut, Olena, pretending to hate being fucked, but I still remember how hard you came around my dick every time I took your ass.” His hand moves from my pussy to my ass, and he smacks it lightly. “Did you miss me just as much as I missed you?” he asks. Then he pulls the coat down my shoulder, exposing my neck to the cold air, and sinks his teeth into the junction where my neck meets my shoulder, biting hard, pain exploding along my arm. I press my palms against my mouth, stifling the scream, not wanting anyone to find me like this—with him.

“Olena?” Artemiy’s loud voice booms through the night, and the monster behind me finally stops biting me.

“Is that your boyfriend calling out for you?”

I say nothing. I can’t, even if I want to.

His lips press kisses along my neck before he sucks on it just enough to leave an ugly hickey. “I should send you back to him with more than just this little proof of what a whore you are,” he whispers while grinding against me. Artemiy keeps calling out for me, and Vasiliy’s voice joins him. “You are here with two guys?” he chuckles low in my ear. “It doesn’t quite surprise me. You always liked dick. Remember all the gangbangs you had, all your holes filled with cock after cock? I should fuck you and fill your ass with cum before I let you go back to them so they will know how much you love anal,” he says as Vasiliy and Artemiy sound closer now, “but I’ll save that for our next encounter. Meanwhile, I might send them some videos of you. Finding out their phone numbers shouldn’t be that hard.”

He lets go of me. “I’m looking forward to seeing you again, Olena. I don’t think I need to warn you to keep our meeting a secret, because if you don’t, you know what will happen.”

With that, he leaves, disappearing between the tall stalks of corn and leaving me shaken and traumatized by the encounter.

Artemiy and Vasiliy keep calling out my name, but it doesn’t take long for them to stop moving farther into the maze, their voices sounding farther and farther away. I want to call after them, to let them know where I am, but my body is still paralyzed with fear, and words refuse to leave my mouth.

My phone starts buzzing in my purse, and I scream at myself to grab it, to answer it, but I can’t. Not yet. Maybe not ever.

I can’t let Vasiliy and Artemiy see me like this—tainted by another man’s touch. But that’s not what scares me the most–them seeing videos of me while I was with other men does.

A part of me is sure that they won’t want me anymore, that they will think that I’m dirty now, soiled. The thought of not being with them sends me into a panic, and a loud sob rises in my chest, the only thing keeping it inside being my hands still pressed over my mouth.

This was supposed to be a fun night, but I ruined it by letting that monster find out about Artemiy and Vasiliy. I always ruin everything. I hate myself for how weak I am. Even after all this time, I was never truly free of my past, and it has finally caught up with me.

Tears drip down my fingers. I should never have allowed myself to think that I could ever have a normal life—two good men who love me and a found family.

I should leave. But where I should go, I’m not sure. All I know is that I can’t stay here anymore, not when my presence here means that Artemiy and Vasiliy’s lives are in danger. Because if one monster found me, so can others.

I force myself to take several deep breaths, just like Ivan taught me, and slowly, my body starts obeying me. When I feel like I can walk without my legs collapsing beneath me, I crawl out from where I am and aimlessly wander through the maze while wrapping my coat around myself, silently begging God or whatever entity is listening to me to help me find my way out of here.

My legs almost give out, and my blood chills in my veins as I hear Artemiy’s voice coming from behind me. “Olena?” When I don’t turn around, he adds, “What’s wrong, beautiful?”

My shoulders start trembling uncontrollably as Vasiliy says, “Let us see you, sweetheart.”

His voice is enough to make me burst into tears, and in a moment, they surround me, their arms wrapping around me as loathing rises inside me, hating myself for how weak I am, for how much I need them.

“What happened?” Artemiy demands as he searches me for injuries, but I refuse to let him or Vasiliy see my neck. Because once they see the mark that… that monster left on my skin, they will know that another man touched me. And worse than leaving quietly for their own good is them rejecting me, disgust written all over their handsome faces.

Despite how shaken I still am, somehow I manage to say, “Nothing,” as I stop crying.

But they can hear the lie in my voice and press for answers.

“Did you hurt yourself?” Vasiliy wonders.

But Artemiy asks, “Did anyone do something to you?” His gaze falls on the coat. “What the hell?! Who the fuck did this?”

More tears threaten to escape my eyes, and I look away, not trusting myself not to break down completely. I lie once more, “I got tangled up in the corn, and as I was trying to free myself, the buttons got ripped away. I couldn’t find them in the dark.”

Artemiy grabs my chin between two fingers and forces me to meet his gaze. “Is there a reason why you don’t trust us enough to tell us the truth?”

I should have an update on Alma - at least part of the edited chapter soon, but I am wondering if I should wait until I have everything done and then post?
