won’t let her walk through this building without feeling the same.
If I can’t take her heart, I’ll take her dignity instead.
I know she can hear it.
“Didn’t I spoil you enough, huh? Does he give your pussy more attention than me?” All the people in the hallway are staring at me, but I don’t give a shit. “Was one cock not enough for you?”
The door to the principal’s office opens and out comes the principal together with Vanessa. Phillip is nowhere to be seen. Of course, not; why would he be there for her? He never has.
I have. Look how that turned out.
“When will it be enough, Vanessa? How many dicks do you have to ride? How many hearts will you stomp on?”
“Shut up!” she yells, her cheeks red with embarrassment. She probably thought she could get away with this without feeling something. Well, that’s just too darn fucking bad.
“Yeah, you’d like that, wouldn’t you?”
“Shut the hell up!” she yells. “You’ve hurt me enough!”
“Oh, I’ve hurt you enough? You’re such a fucking joke. I hope you’re happy with yourself, Vanessa. Have a good fucking life,” I shout. Then the big guy drags me out the door and throws me on the curb.
“Didn’t you hear the lady? Shut your trap and get out of here,” the guy says, making a face. “Think you’re a badass, embarrassing a girl like that?”
“It’s called laying the truth out on the floor.”
“I don’t believe a fucking word of what you say. Good-bye.” He turns around and walks back to the door.
“Why don’t you go ask her and find out,” I muse. “She likes riding dick, so if you ask nicely, she’ll probably give you some, too. She has a thing for sad chumps like yourself.”
He stops for a second, and I think he might turn around and attack me, but he doesn’t. Instead, he shakes his head and just keeps walking through the door, slamming it shut behind him. I guess he was able to resist temptation, even though I was not.
And now I’m lying here on the asphalt, with people inside staring at me with a memorable, well-known filthy look. I am the dirt on the ground they step on and wipe off their boots.
There and then, I decide that I will never be ridiculed like that ever again.
The only thing that bound me to this earth, what kept me human, what kept me from all the horrible thoughts spinning through my head, was her.
She.
The woman who first betrayed me.
Nothing stops me from becoming whatever I want now. Nothing.
I will become the man they’ll fear. The man who knows everyone, but no one knows him. I’ll become a stronger and better version of myself. I’ll become invisible. And when I’m ready, I’ll show my new self to the world again.
They will tremble in awe of my transformation.
And then I’ll kill them all.
CHAPTER 24
PHOENIX
She says she loved me, but I remember differently.
That day was when I knew she’d made her choice.
And it was the same day that I’d made mine.
“You don’t get to talk about love,” I spit. “Not after what you did.”
“I know what I did, but I did it for a reason, and it was a good one.”
“I don’t give a fuck about your reasons. If you loved me so much, you would’ve done anything to be with me, and I mean fucking anything.”
“You don’t understand; my mother wouldn’t let me,” she says.
Fuck her mother. Fuck everything. I part my lips to tell her exactly how I feel, but I don’t have time. The doorbell rings, and both our heads turn toward the door.
I’m not expecting any company, and from the looks of it, neither is Vanessa.
So why is someone ringing the doorbell? And more importantly … how the fuck did they get past the closed gate?
“Phoenix, you in there?”
My eyes widen.
Shit. I recognize that voice.
It’s DeLuca.
“Fuck.”

VANESSA
Phoenix immediately puts his pants back on, hauls me off the table, and pulls me through the hallway. I don’t even get the time to put on some clothes. “Wait! I’m still naked,” I say.
“No time,” he growls, pulling me upstairs.
“Where are we going?” I ask.
Phoenix doesn’t respond, but he keeps dragging me up the stairs like he’s possessed.
The banging on the door continues, and it draws my attention. Who could it be? Is someone coming to rescue me? No, they were calling his name, so that can’t be it.
“What’s going on?” I ask.
Phoenix drags me to the attic. “Nothing. Stay here and keep your mouth shut,” he
