ETHAN
Olivia and Marcus left. They left me with all the anger I felt before I left with Samuel, all the work I had done to try and get over what happened had gone down the drain. I lost the woman I liked because of them; we ended up saying things we couldn’t take back to each other because of them.
Shit! I punched the window breaking it in the process. The glass cut my knuckles, but that pain was better than the one I felt in my heart. I didn’t think I liked Emily that much, but I think I did. I got out of the house and drove to her place.
I never got to say what I wanted to say to her that day; I was pissed, and she was too. It was time I said what was in my mind then maybe I was going to be fine after. I parked in front of her place, right behind her car.
She was home, good. I didn’t think I was going to be able to go back there if she weren’t. I got out of the car and went to knock on her door. She opened the door, and I pushed her aside getting inside. Not giving her a chance to close the door on my face or say something else that was going to piss me off.
“What the hell are you doing here, Ethan, I thought…”
“Shut up, shut the fuck up and listen to me.” she looked taken back by my outburst, but I didn’t care, it was my turn to talk. She said all she wanted to say that day and insulted me as much as she wanted.
“You called me a dog that day,” she opened her mouth, but I lifted my forefinger silencing her. “You called me a sub being controlled by Olivia.” That part hurt and pissed me off more than anything.
“Who the hell do you think you are to say those things to me?” her face changed, and I could see she was ready to say something mean once again. “If you dare open that mouth of yours and say shit again, I swear to everything holy, I will deal with you in ways you have never been delt with, I will show you what a dog and a sub can do.”
I paused; this time she looked spooked, good. “That mouth of yours is going to get you into shit one day.” I chuckled. I was sure I looked like a mad man at that point. “What am I saying? It already has landed you in shit, with me.”
I closed the small distance between us. She took a step back and I took another step then held her hand to stop her from moving.
“Why the hell are you running now, weren’t you the one who opened that big mouth of yours and said all that shit?” she swallowed hard. Good, we were getting somewhere.
“I liked you, but you couldn’t even give me time to make things right. You kept yapping away like an annoying dog instead of trusting me to fix things for us.” I let go of her hand and moved away from her creating a bit of a distance between us.
“You are a nobody to us, you are not in our level and trusting you was going to take time but once you were in, it would have been for life. you would have gotten yourself a strong support system, friends that would go to war for you and a man that would have crossed the world to make you happy.”
