Contract With Big Brother-in-law

“I’m not jealous,” I said, although the slight waver in my voice betrayed me.

No matter how much I tried to speak, the words simply wouldn’t come out. I felt weak and helpless under the weight of his gaze, like he was seeing right through me. It was like every huff of hot air from his mouth reignited that throbbing mark on my neck, like his fangs were sinking into me over and over and over again.
