What do you do when the man who
raped you has the entire police force in his pocket? When you’re
called a slut, a whore, and a liar? You get your own
justice.
My
name is Nami DeGrace, and six months ago I was a normal college student. I was
volunteering on the campaign of a man I believed in, a man I thought to be good
and noble. Then one night that man forced himself on me and everything changed.
The media reviled me. The
police didn’t believe me. My friends abandoned me. I dropped out of
college and only have one mission in life: make him pay. That is, until Nick
Law came in to my life.
Indomitable, infuriating, and
irresistible, Law is complicating
things.
Law gripped the back of my neck
and pulled me into him. It wasn’t a kiss—it was a merging.
I didn’t just taste the power, I felt the cutting intensity
throughout my body. I responded instantly, wrapping my arms around his neck and
moaning into his mouth. Law stopped and undid my hands from his neck. I opened
my eyes, confused.
“Can’t have
you waking everyone up,” Law said, grinning. “Be good and
you’ll be rewarded.” I wanted to rebel at that. I nearly
slapped him across the face. Yet deep inside, his words made me glow. I dropped
my arms to my sides and waited for
instructions.
Law
traced a finger from my cheek down to my collarbone and carefully brushed aside
my cotton shirt. I shivered as my shoulder became exposed. Bending down, he
placed a light kiss on the tip of my shoulder. I bit my lip to keep from
whimpering.
“Good
girl,” Law murmured against my skin. It took all my willpower not to grip
Law by his powerful shoulders. I didn’t want him to stop, though, so
that meant playing by his rules. I kept my hands next to my sides because that
meant Law would continue kissing
me.
Law placed a hand on my stomach
and I gasped.
“Shh…”
Using his other thumb, Law tugged my bottom lip. “You have a
beautiful mouth, Dandelion. Don’t let it get us in
trouble.” I was speechless, or at least I thought I was. My thoughts
got jumbled up with his hands on my mouth and my
stomach.
Then he did something
amazing.
Something
reckless.
He slid his hand from my
stomach and beneath my
jeans.
