“These.”

He deftly reaches down and plucks the panties hanging from my hand. And again, even with the mask, I canfeelhis eyes on me as he twists the pink lace around his tattooed fingers.

“Enjoy the rest of the party.”

I blink as he abruptly walks past me toward the door.

“Wait,” I blurt, whirling.

The Ghost Prince pauses, turning slightly to look at me.

“Oh, did you want to come all over my pants again?” he murmurs, the hint of amusement in his tone coming across even with the modulation.

My face heats wildly.

“Th-the video,” I mumble. “You said you’d delete it.”

Silence settles over the dark room as he looks at me.

“I don't remember that.”

My eyes widen. “Hang on, I just?—”

“Came on me. I know.”

Smug motherfucker.

I blink rapidly, my pulse rising. “You said?—”

“I said it couldn’t hurt your chances.” His shoulder lifts. “I don’t believe it did.”

He turns and starts to walk to the door again.

“Wait!” I yell, bolting after him. “Hang on! You can’t just fucking?—”

I gasp sharply as he suddenly whirls on me. His hand flies to my throat and grabs the O-ring of the choker I'm still wearing. His finger slips through the metal and twists it, instantly tightening the strap around my windpipe and making my eyes bulge as my air threatens to cut off.

“Tell me to wait one more time, little villain,” he murmurs downright calmly, “and I may find that I’m more in the mood to watch you bounce on my lapwithoutmy pants stopping my cock from driving balls deep into your soaking pussy.”

My eyes bulge wide.

The Ghost King looks at me with zero emotion on his blank, masked face.

My head quickly shakes side to side. His finger stays in the loop of my choker for one more second before he untwists it and slips his finger free. I suck in a huge, ragged breath, feeling a black, poisonous snake curling inside me.

“You were a very good girl for me, Galina,” he growls quietly. His hand raises, and I shiver when he cups my jaw and deftly drags his thumb over my bottom lip. “I can’t wait to see how good a girl you are for me next time.”

Without another word, he turns, opens the door, and walks out.

My whole body tingles.

Next time??
