Chapter 12

I wake up, breathing hard.

Placing a hand on my forehead, I take a steady breath.

I glance around my room and see that it is still dark, but that didn't mean it was not morning. The deep-sea is always somewhat void of light. I roll over and realize that it's four in the morning, thankful for the glowing gold clock. Steven was supposed to be scouting, but I'm sure that he is passed out high somewhere.

Or, eating cookies.

But, I take a shaky breath, needing to process what Raine did to me without Steven here. This time it was not steamy beach action but something darker, sexier.

I shiver...

This time I was tied up and blindfolded in a red silk scarf, the deep scarlet obscuring my vision. I close my eyes, trying to remember all the erotic imagines that Raine fed me, not realizing how kinky he was, or is. I sit up in my bed, frantically wondering how much information I gave away.

I was helpless, and he knew it.

I rub my forehead. The man will pay.
