Ch. 24
I sort of moaned slightly, and weakly put my arms around him, nuzzling my head into his collarbone.
He let go of me, keeping only one arm around me, and used his gloved hand to play with my hair, silently musing about how I seemed to trust him; and if not trust him, at least think that he wouldn't hurt me.
After a few seconds of that, he roughly grabbed my hair with his gloved hand and pulled my head back slightly by my hair. It hurt only a little.
He let me look at him for a few seconds; I had a somewhat worried, but otherwise blank expression on my face.
This time when he kissed me, it wasn't rougher, but more forceful. He pushed me against the wall, and I was thinking, …WTF?
He pinned me to him with one arm, and twisted his gloved hand through my hair.
I thought that would hurt, but it didn't.
He moved from my mouth to my jawbone, and from there down to my neck and collarbone.
I clutched his shoulder and pushed back, as if to say, "No, don't."
He looked up and asked, "You really think I would let you get away that easily?"
Suddenly, before I could answer, I was flying through the air, untouched by his hands, and rammed into the wall. Before I could catch my breath, I was flung through the air again and hit another wall. That happened again and again and again.
When I finally landed, my mind had gone numb. When I saw him, my mind felt only a numb, unthinking terror, and I weakly backed up, on my back, using my elbows and feet, and screamed my head off.
He walked towards me with this worried expression on his face, and I continued to scream.
"But…Julia…", he breathed, "I…I didn't do that…Julia…please…"
I only continued to back up and scream.
Suddenly, we both heard a dark chuckle, and he looked up while I continued to scream.
He stiffened and brandished his claws, and he had this angry, and determined, expression on his face.
My mind had calmed down enough to lower my screams and think, What is it?
