Chapter 26
The words knocked the wind out her chest.
'His dad never abused him. That means we beat up an innocent man,' Lexi thought.
She tried to tell herself there was no way for her to know that at the time, but the excuse was a lame one. Even Dexter checked to make certain his 'victims' had committed the crime he was sentencing them to death for.
'We were drunk,' Lexi thought, another subpar attempt to alleviate her guilt.
She stared dully, watching as he gathered more flies to add to the gastronomic delight that awaited his poor father. One buzzed in his hand, barely clinging to life before he dumped it in with the others. Its wings twitched for a second before the motion caused the broth to swallow it up like quicksand.
"Why?" she whispered.
He glanced at her. "Why did I lie?"
"Yes, that... and why are you doi

The look on his sister’s face when he asked about Jayce's sadistic tendencies confirmed it for Sam. The two of them were a couple. His suspicions had started when Lexi had jokingly told him deepthroating a toothbrush was her 'homework.' She'd been making a private joke with herself, blissfully unaware that Jayce had also given him the 'homework' task of smoking cigarettes.Thinking about cigarettes made him crave one. He'd gone from hating them to needing one every few hours in the space of a week or so."I'm nipping to the shop," he announced to his family. "Anybody want anything?""Sugar please," Mum asked with a sweet smile as Lexi shook her head.He tried not to picture his sister sucking his mate's dick as he walked to town.'I wonder why they are keeping it a secret?' he thought. 'Is it because of me?'The more he tho

Lexi took her make-up brush and applied a thick layer of foundation over her concealer. The greenish hue was still visible but shouldn't be obvious to anyone who didn't know to look for it. It had been a couple of days and Edward hadn't contacted her. Her hope was he'd done with her. Moved on to tormenting some other poor soul. It wasn't likely, but stranger things had happened. 'I can dream.'Lexi sighed. Since it was another scorching hot day, Lexi selected one of her skimpier outfits—a short playsuit with no back. She'd yet to find an excuse to wear it, despite loving it when she'd found it on sale at her favourite store. After tottering down the stairs in her heels she almost fell as Sam stepped out of the living room at the most unfortunate moment. "Sorry," he muttered before looking her up and down. "What are you so dressed up for?"

“Lexi?” Jenna asked. She was vaguely aware her friend had been talking but couldn’t tell you what about. Everything washed away—no sound, sight or smell penetrated, other than the ugly words on her screen and the buzzing in her brain. “Lex?”Jenna called a couple of times more before she finally stumbled from the stall.In the bathroom, she met Jenna's concerned eyes."What's happened? What's wrong?" Jenna asked."I—I can't do this," Lexi mumbled to herself. She shook her head, backed back into the cubicle, and sat on the toilet seat.She felt a hand on her knee and looked up to see Jenna's wide eyes, full of questions.After a long and shaky sigh, Lexi explained the situation to her friend. The girls face morphed from concerned to shocked as the story continued."Oh, sweet

Sitting on the wall opposite the corner shop, Sam kicked his heels against the brickwork in quiet rhythm as he enjoyed his second cigarette of the morning.He was making so many ‘spur of the moment’ trips to the shop that Mum had started to get suspicious. This was the reason he'd re-taken up skateboarding, just to use as an excuse to leave the house.'A pretty clever ruse if I do say so myself,'he thought with a smile.He was still smiling when Angelica and Kaycie turned the corner. Angelica favoured him with a dirty look and spun her face away so fast her stupid ponytail almost whipped her friend across the face. Kaycie glanced up at him, made a face he couldn't read and looked down.Kayley's words replayed in his brain—'That girl fancies you.'He took the last drag of his cigarette while the girls were inside the shop and flicked th

As Lexi woke up, for the first few seconds her brain was protected in a haze of amnesia, blissfully unaware of yesterday’s events.She felt the soreness of tears around her eyes a few horrible seconds before her memory updated itself.The first thing she did was check her phone.Nothing.'So weird,'she thought. Surely he would have something to say on the matter of being dumped and in such a cruel and cowardly manner. He'd be pissed if nothing else.Then a thought occurred. Maybe Jenna hadn't gone through with it.She decided to message her to make sure, and her friend was quick to reply, telling her both that she had let him down as gently as possible and letting her know her phone was working.She considered messaging Jayce but ultimately decided against it. Instead, she sent a text to Edward.

"Have you heard from your sister?" Mum asked as Sam passed through the kitchen. She looked up from the dishes, dried her hands and checked her phone. "I can't seem to get hold of her.""No." Sam shook his head. "She's probably with her uni mates and her phone died. You know what she's like."Mum nodded, but there was a look in her eye—the troubled glint of a mother who sensed her child might be in danger.He would have talked to her. Calmed her down. But he had an important date and there just wasn't time. Kayley had messaged, asking to meet him for a milkshake, and while he'd known she would contact him for another 'date,' he was still nervous to go.As he left the house, Sam checked his pockets, making sure he had everything he might need. This was more than just a habit, he had to make sure he had everything he might need.Little bubbles of anxiety forming in the pit of

Lexi wiggled, trying her best to jerk her body left and right. She figured if she kept this up, she might manage to loosen the bindings.It took her nearly an hour to give in from exhaustion. Even with the excessive amount of sweat dripping from her body, the tape wasn't giving an inch. He'd wrapped too much and too tightly.'Damn you, Edward,'she thought.'Why are you doing this to me?'Being restrained had been one of Lexi's turn-ons. Something that made her hot and wet. But this... this was torture. Not being able to move for hours on end while sweaty, too hot, scared, and desperate... well, there was nothing sexy about it.She hated it. The situation. The horrible gag pressing down on her tongue and making her salivate. The pressure in her bladder. It was unlikely he would return to let her use the bathroom.'I'm going to pee myself,'

As they awaited Jayce's arrival all Lexi could think about was the fact she was soaked in her own urine.'I stink of pee,'she panicked.'I can't let him see me like this. He must already hate me.'She looked over at Sam, who was being oddly quiet. Usually, you couldn't shut him up. He would be making inappropriate jokes or sarcastic remarks or something...'He must be terrified.'A fierce sound erupted from her belly, making Edward laugh. "Aww, are you hungry?"He took a chocolate bar from his pocket, unwrapped it and took a giant bite, all without breaking eye contact."You sadistic little prick!" she shouted, though it came out an inaudible growl.The sight and smell of food made her hunger grow to the point her stomach felt like it had a gaping hole inside. When she heard the footsteps outsid
