Cassie stiffens beside me. She shifts, rage pouring off her in waves. She’s about to swing, and fuck, I don’t blame her. But I step in front of her, my shoulders squared.
“Get the fuck out of our way.” My voice is stern, sharp, nothing at all like how I feel on the inside.
Bryce leans in, too close, breath hot with that rotten smell of teeth that don’t get brushed.
“Don’t be a fucking bitch. You’d be real sweet if you dropped the act. Bet you’re soaked just being near us.”
I move to push past Bryce, but he shifts again, blocking me as if it’s a game.
Liam laughs. “I heard you let that shit heap Zane get between those pretty lips. Or are you still out here pretending your pussy is some untouched fucking shrine? I bet it isn’t. I bet you spread real easy once someone says the right thing. Girls like you always do.”
I don’t give him the satisfaction of a reply. Just hold his stare.
It’s all I’ve got left that doesn’t shake.
He reaches out, fingers aimed at my cheek. I twist away before he can touch me, jaw clenched so tight it hurts. My skin crawls just being this close.
Cassie has had enough.
“Touch her again and I’ll rip your dick off and feed it to my dog.” She cracks her knuckles. “He eats trash.”
“Shit. She’s mouthy,” Connor snorts. “You into that, Bryce?”
Bryce drops his gaze to my tits. “Only when they’re crying and begging for me to stop. That’s when they are at their hottest.”
The bile in my throat rises.
They are not just assholes. They are fucking monsters.
I need to get the fuck out of here with Cassie. Now.
Every instinct is screaming. I’m wracking my brain for a way out, for anything.
A distraction, any fucking gap in their formation I can shove us through.
But they are closing in.
And suddenly I’m boxed in.
My back hits something solid… Liam. His chest presses against me.
“Don’t fucking touch me,” I snap, voice cracking through the tension.
He laughs, close to my ear. “Relax, Sky. You should be flattered.”
Bryce runs a hand through his greasy hair, his eyes crawling down my body. “That mouth’s gonna get you in trouble, sweetheart.”
“She’s already in trouble,” Liam mutters, his breath near my neck. “Walking around town dressed like she’s begging for a good fucking.”
I spin around and shove at his chest, but he barely moves.
My skin burns when he gets too close.
Connor steps in, grin spreading, eyes flicking between me and his asshole buddies.
“You ever had three guys at once?” he asks, voice dripping filth. “Bet you’d love it.”
“Say that again, you limp-dick piece of shit,” Cassie snaps.
