Chapter 1
she had me locked in his car, using me like I was nothing more than his possession.
His body slammed into mine again and again. The windows were fogged up, and the air inside the car was drenched in the heady, suffocating scent of sex
Right as I was teetering on the edge of chimax, he suddenly wrapped his hand around my throat
Was it you? Did you sneak Faye out of the country behind my back?”

sing grip. It wasn’t some levers game. His strength was brutal–my vision went dark. It felt like he truly wanted to choke the life out of me right then and there.
Faxe.
The moment that mame hit my ears, my whole body frore.
Lust vanished like cold water dumped over my skin
No woman can accept it–being with her husband, only for him to moan another woman’s name. I

He leaned in, his dark eyes reflecting my pale, broken face. “Why don’t you try me?”
