บท 80: Chapter 80

Coby must see the horror rise in my face because he tightens his arm around my waist and gives me a bitter smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes. “I’ll not lie to you, Dae. I came in here the other night looking to see what he brags about. He’s just so much talk. I had to see for myself if you’re all that. So I came here thinking I’d fuck you and go back to the Outlands and rub it in his face. I had me a piece of your bitch, what do you think about that?”

My hands tremble. I’m not hearing this. He’s doing this just to get at McBane? He’s doing me? Oh God, please.Coby nods as if affirming my fears and I push away from him, suddenly angry.

“Dae, it’s not like that. Not anymore.”

“What’s it like, then?” Delia was right.When he tries to pull me closer, I twist out of his embrace. “Fuck you, Coby.”

A hush falls over the men closest to us and his face hardens. “We’ll talk about this later. When we’re alone.”

“There’s not going to be a later,” I say bitterly.
