Warrior (Twisted Sister #2) by Lacy LeRoch Page B

stupid pills.
    “You know you want me to help you with that,” a deep rumble purrs from behind me.
    I spin on my heels and come face to face with the one male who I want to avoid at all costs. As if running into him before I saw Alison wasn’t bad enough, now I have to put up with him when I can’t even control my own feelings.
    “Doctor Callow, I’m pretty sure you have a lot of patients that need your attention. So if you will please excuse me, I will get back to my own,” I tell him quickly.
    I just want to get away from him as fast as possible. Lucas glances over my shoulder quickly, his eyes dart up the hall. His full plump lips twist in a snarl as he pushes me into an empty examination room across the hall.
    “Cut the fucking bullshit, Madison, we’ve been playing this game for months now. You know you want me. You know as well as I do that I’m the only man who can make you feel loved, wanted.” He pushes me roughly up against the wall and reaches around grabbing my ass. His hold on me is painful as I suck in a pain-filled breath. He smirks and squeezes my ass harder, pulling me in flush to his body. And all I can think about is gagging. There was a time when I loved his rough treatment of me, but then he changed. He got violent, and I couldn’t get out fast enough. He promised he’d stay away if I never mentioned it to anyone. I kept my promise, but from the look of it, he won’t be keeping his. It’s been the day from hell, and I use that. I pull on all the bad crap I have had to put up with, all the emotions I was forced to feel, and using all that to my advantage I lean forward and whisper in his ear, “If you don’t get the fuck away from me, Lucas, I will castrate you. Oh and FYI sweetheart, I will enjoy every fucking second of it.”
    Lucas laughs and lowers his head to kiss my neck, his short black hair tickles the side of my face.
    “What the fuck is this?” Lucas jumps back like I’ve just burnt him and hisses, “Who the fuck are you sleeping with, Madison?”
    The fucking nerve of this asshole. I narrow my eyes and place my hands on my hips.
    God, I have no idea what I ever saw in this guy.
    “Let’s get one thing straight here, Lucas, I don’t ever have to tell you anything. It is my goddamn business if I’m sleeping with anyone. Who the fuck do you think you are?”
    “Madison, you fucking whore. Who the hell do you think you are, lying to me?”
    His eyes remain focused on my neck. What the hell is he going on about? I am just about to ask him when he finally raises his gaze to mine and sees the confusion on my face.
    “You have bite marks all over your neck, and I don’t mean love bites either. I’m talking about full-blown teeth marks. If I find out who you’re sleeping with, I will kill him , Madison. You’re mine and don’t you ever forget it,” he growls.
    His hand flies up to my throat, squeezing hard. His eyes darken to a raven black as he tightens the pressure on my neck, cutting off the circulation and making it hard for me to breathe. I won’t give him the satisfaction of panicking. I know his game, he wants to see the fear in my eyes. I close them and let the green eyes from my dream fill me with comfort. I only have to think about them and I start to feel warm, calm and loved.
    “It would be in your best interests, Doctor Callow to let Doctor Green go.”
    Lucas drops his arm fast, allowing it to fall at his side, as a shadowy figure comes striding into the room. Lucas tries to block me from whoever it is that has now joined us in the room.
    “Just who do you think you are talking to? Get back to your room. Right. This. Minute! ” Lucas screams at the intruder.
    He reaches behind his back and pushes me further into the shadows of his body. Oh, hell no. I take advantage of the newcomer and step out around from his back. At first, I wasn’t sure who it was that’s come to my aid. But when I see the short blonde hair and small bumped female walk into the
