"Get off of me!" I screamed as I thrashed around in his arms. "Relax!" He whisper yelled. "Let me go!" I screamed in Richard's face as he tightened his grip on me. "I just want to talk. Relax and I'll let you go." Richard whispered into my ear and I couldn't help but shiver when his lips lightly grazed my mark. It sent me straight to Cloud 10. I growled softly to myself for that moment and weakness and stopped my violent movements. As promised, Richard's hands slowly loosened from their grasp on me and I jumped away from him to put space between us. "Why are you here? I thought you were locked away." Richard stuffed his hands into his coat pocket and stared at me intently. "I was released." My eyes widened in shock. "By who?" He shrugged and leaned against the kitchen counter.
