Sienna and Josiah locked eyes, and for a few seconds, it was so quiet they
hear the snow falling.
Josiah’s face was like the sky before a storm–dark and heavy. He looked at her and said quietly. “You weren’t with him all night, were you?”
Sienna started to explain, “Yeah, but-
But Josiah interrupted, his eyes turning fierce, “You admit it?”
“Sienna,” he said, grabbing her chin, his face close to hers, and gave a cold smile. “You did this on purpose, didn’t you? You gave Yvette the dress just to skip the party and meet up with your ex. Am I right?”
Sienna was thrown off by his sudden anger.
Cedric was there 100, and seeing things going south, he tried to explain, Josiah, don’t get the wrong idea. Sienna fell off her bike last night, and 1 just took her to the hospital…
“Shut up.” Josiah snapped at Cedric, his eyes blazing. He grabbed Cedric by the collar. “And you. Staying with my girlfriend? Are you looking for trouble”
Before Cedric could say anything, Josiah threw a punch.
Cedric, still not fully steady from his injury, went down hard, his face going pale from the pain.
“Cedric!” Sienna was freaked out. Seeing Cedric like that, she felt like she was bad luck–anyone who was nice to her had to get hurt. Without thinking, she rushed over, dropped to her knees in front of Cedric, and looked up at Josiah. “Stop it. Cedric’s telling the truth.” Then, in a quick move, she threw herself at Josiah and hugged his legs. “Cedric, get out of here. Go, now,
“Sienna?” Cedric was hesitant, not wanting to leave. “What if he hurts your
- go. If you stay,
“He won’t,” Sienna said, urgently. She knew Josiah was a jerk, but he wasn’t the type to hit a girl. Just go. He won’t touch me. Please, g it I make things worse.”
With Sienna pushing him and Cedric’s driver coming over to help, they managed to get Cedric out of there.
Josiah chuckled, but it was a bitter sound. He looked down at Sienna, who was clinging to him. “Sienna, you’re my girl. What’s Cedric all night. What was that?”
He couldn’t help but think about them together, hugging and kissing. Just the thought was like a knife in his gut
is this about? You with
“Sienna, are you crazy? You treating me like this for Cedric? If he was reliable, you wouldn’t have gotten set up by Xenia” His disappointment was heavy, and despair flickered in his eyes.
Sienna’s
s heart skipped a beat, scared by his look–he made it look like she was cheating on him. She grabbed his arm. “Josiah, listen. I didn’t cheat. I was at the hospital all night for observation”
“Riglu,” he said, not convinced.
“Yes” Sienna nodded fast, like she was trying to convince herself too.
But Josiah wasn’t buying it. He bent down, picked her up, and carried her to the car. “I don’t believe you. Get up. You’re coming with me.
The car door slammed, and Sienna’s heart sank. She bit her lip, w
worried, “Where are we heading?”
Josiah didn’t say a word, just started the car and floored it.
Sienna looked out the window, confused–they were on the way to Silver Beach
Josiah was really booking it, but it was early y and the roads were clear with the snow, so they pulled up in no time.
The car zipped into the driveway and headed straight for the garage. He slammed on the brakes so hard, the wheels sparked on the pavement.
Sienna could see Josial’s mood darkening. She felt a little scared. She unbuckled her seatbelt and tried to talk. “Josiah, um… But before she could get it out, he pushed her back into the seat.
At the same time, he leaned the seat way back, leaving Sienna lying flat. He loomed over her.

“What are you doing?” Sienna’s eyes widened with fear.
“I can’t wait,” Josiah said, reaching for her neck. “You said you and Cedric were over, right? Let me see for myself. Right now,”
Sienna was shocked. She knew exactly what he meant. She shook her head and pushed against his chest. “No, don’t. Get up. I don’t want this,”
“You don’t want to?” Josiah’s eyes were all red with jealousy. “Why not? We’ve been together before.
“So, you met your ex–boyfriend and now you’re acting all high and mighty? Did you two get close last night? That’s why I can’t touch you now? Are you saving yourself for him!”
Sienna’s face turned pale with anger, and she was shaking She suddenly slapped him. “What are you talking about? Josiah, you’re such a jerk.”
“I’m the jerk?” Josiah took the slap, but he got even angrier. “Yeah, I’m the jerk. To you, I’m not as good as Cedric”
“Yes,” Sienna growled, her eyes full of anger. “Cedric is just better than you. He’s a real gentleman, honest and good. You can’t compare to him. You’re not worthy.”
“You–Josiah raised his fist, but he held it in the air, clenching it tight without hitting her..
He let out a dark laugh. “Yeah, I’m not worthy. I’m not as good as Cedric, but guess what? You’re n
Then he leaned down and kissed her, but it was rough and forceful
mine now”
“Ouch,” Sienna winced. This wasn’t a normal kiss. He was biting her. It really hurt. She tried to push him off in the cramped space of the car, but she wasn’t strong enough
“Let go… she mumbled, but he didn’t listen.
The pain was intense. She’d never felt anything like it. It felt like she was being torn apart. And some bad memories flashed through her mind.
Sienna closed her eyes; she was too exhausted to fight anymore.
“Sienna, Sienna, Josiah kept murmuring her name, running his fingers through her hair. He seemed really possessive. “You’re mine; you’re mine.”
