He grabbed her forearm, surprisingly strong despite being inebriated.She tried to yank away from him, and his fingers tightened around her, pulling her into her living room.“Don’t be like that, baby.I talked to the super.Told her I accidentally locked myself out.Luckily, she remembered me since we dated for three years.She walked upstairs with me and let me in herself.Where’ve you been anyway?I’ve been waiting here for hours.Hope you don’t mind that I drank a few of your beers.”

Wrenching her arm free, she pulled back from him, putting a few steps between them.“None of your damn business.How I spend my time and who I spend it with has absolutely nothing to do with you.”

“I miss you, baby.I told you that the other night at Anchors.I miss having you beside me in bed.I miss that sweet pussy of yours.”

“You need to leave right now or I’m calling the police.”

Eric’s expression turned cold.“Where’s your phone, Tay?You’re not calling anybody.Give me your purse.”

She clutched her purse tightly, his eyes following the movement.He yanked it free from her hands, carelessly tossing it across the room.

“Where’s that Navy guy you’ve been fucking?I thought he’d be here with you right now.Stripping you bare.Licking your pussy.”He laughed harshly, pulling his own phone from his back pocket.“I got some good footage of you two.I have to admit, I didn’t realize you were such a whore.We dated a month before you’d have sex with me.You barely even know him and let him fuck you.That hurt, Tay.I shouldn’t have had to watch that.”

Her cheeks flamed as waves of embarrassment and humiliation washed over her, and she crossed her arms, shaking.Trying to hold in her emotions.“You’re lying.You don’t have a damn thing.”

Eric unlocked his phone, swiping an app on the screen and pulling up some grainy video footage.He held it up, and Taylor wanted to vomit as she watched footage from a few days ago of her pulling off her camisole that first morning she’d been with Mason.Her bare breasts were on display as she straddled him, and moments later, she was crying out in pleasure.

“Give me that!”she yelled, reaching up as Eric chuckled and held the phone out of her reach.“Where the hell did you get that?”

“I’ve got plenty of videos of you two.I bugged your bedroom.I get to watch you walk around naked as you undress every night.I like to see those perky breasts bounce as you move.That gorgeous pussy of yours.Your ass as you bend over and slip on your sexy little panties.”

Taylor covered her mouth with her hand, bile rising in the back of her throat.He’d been watching her.Invading her privacy.Seeing her intimate with another man.What had Eric done with those videos?Had he shown his friends?Posted them online for the entire world to see?

“That’s right, baby.I like watching you.You’re mine.I love seeing your beautiful body.And I needed to see why you suddenly thought you were too good for me after three years.Why you picked that dumb fuck over me.”

“You’re a goddamn drunk, Eric!”she seethed, gasping in shook as he smacked her across the face.She lifted a hand to her cheek, the sting resonating through her.Tears smarted in her eyes.

“You know, I don’t really like sharing you, but since your new boyfriend’s not here right now, I thought we’d have a little fun tonight.”

“I’m not sleeping with you,” she said, her voice shaking.

He grabbed her arm, his bloodshot eyes raking over her body.“We need one last night together for old time’s sake.Then maybe I’ll let him have you back.”

“No,” she said, her voice trembling.

She took a step back, breaking free from his grip, and then turned.Ran toward her door in her flip-flops.Eric grabbed her from behind, hauling her up into his arms as he covered her mouth with one large hand.

She kicked and fought him, her sandals flying off, her arms restrained by his.He tightened his grip and carried her toward her bedroom, stumbling slightly along the way.“Don’t be like this, Tay.We were good together.”

She tried to cry out, his hand muffling the sound.

Eric was bigger and stronger than her, but maybe she could hold him off until he passed out.Hadn’t that been what had happened every other night he’d shown up?He reeked of alcohol, started slurring his words after she let him into her apartment, then passed out cold.

He’d already said he’d had a few of her beers.And that was just while he was here.He’d probably been drinking all day long.

“Do you promise not to scream?”he asked, his lips at her ear.She cringed.“The cameras I’ve set up are on right now.I don’t want to hurt you, baby.Don’t make me do something that I’ll regret.I need you.I just want your pussy one more time.I want to enjoy what’s mine.Let’s go to bed, enjoy each other, and maybe I’ll give you the copies of the videos tomorrow.”

Tears smarted her eyes as she bobbed her head up and down, agreeing not to yell.

He slid her down his body, one hand still covering her mouth, and set her back on the floor.His hand freely moved over her, clumsily fondling her breasts as she tried not to gag.“Shh, Tay,” he said, staggering again as he moved her toward her bed.

Her cell phone was still in her purse out in the living room.She had exactly zero ways of contacting Mason.Of calling for help.

Her friend Amy was supposed to come pick her up soon for work.Hopefully if Taylor didn’t answer the door or her phone, she’d realize something was wrong.Call the police.Notify someone.

She shuddered and gasped, realizing she had absolutely no idea when Mason would return.If Amy didn’t realize something was wrong, would anyone?What if Eric didn’t let her go?She’d flaked out on work so many times lately, they might not think anything of it if she didn’t show.

Finally releasing her from his grip, Eric’s bloodshot eyes bore into hers.
