Manhandle

“Why are you here, Steve?” I crossed my arms on my chest, my eyes meeting his. His gaze was like daggers. He said nothing but reached out, his fingers closing firmly around my arm before he began to drag me toward the apartment door.His grip was a possessive demand, a clear sign he wasn’t here to talk, he was here to assert his control.“Let go of me!” I struggled, twisting in his grasp. “Stop it, Steve, you're hurting me,” I cried out.He looked down at his hand on my arm, and a flicker of something, not regret but surprise, crossed his face. He slowly loosened his grip, releasing me. His expression crumpled, as if the thought of harming me had just dawned on him.“So you and him are like a thing now?” he finally spoke.Him? He means Luke. What right does he have to even ask?“No.”“Then why did he hug and kiss you?”“That's none of your business, Steve.” I replied, rolling my eyes. “You need to leave.

Scared of me now

(Steve's pov)I couldn't believe it. I had actually hit Mabel. I was such a fucked-up piece of shit. A searing guilt clawed at my throat as I crouched down on the cold concrete, my head buried in my palms. The sound of her cry, the thud of her head hitting the ground, replayed in my mind.This was all Luke's fault. He provoked me.

The punch had been meant for Luke, but it was my rage, my carelessness, that had put Mabel in harm’s way.“Fuck!” The curse was a low, ragged sound ripped from my chest. I needed to make this right. I needed her to forgive me and to know it was an accident, that I would never hit her on purpose. I felt, deep down, that she already knew, but that didn’t matter. I had to face her and make it ri

You're driving me crazy, Mabel.”“Perfect relationship?” she continued, her gaze unwavering as she urged me to go on.“I want a relationship, but with no strings attached. Just sex, Mabel.”“Steve, I-”“Exclusively, Mabel,” I cut her off, my voice tight with desperation. “Only you. Sex with only you, no other woman. Just you.”“This is-”“You can’t fall in love with me, Mabel,” I interrupted again, the rule feeling cold and brutal as it left my mouth. “If you do, it will be over. That's the only rule. You don't have to give me an answer now. Take your time.”I knew I was being selfish, but I couldn't help it. I was too broken to give her the kind of normal relationship she deserved. I don't have it in me to love another woman.She stared at me, her eyes unreadable, then reached out to place her hand on
