Pinned Down: A Triple Threat Sports Romance (48 page)

Left for Dead

A taste of poison is deadly. A taste of me is a whole lot worse.

She found me on the side of the road. 
I would've bled to death if it wasn't for her. 
The bastards who 
tried to kill me
 had come real damn close. 
But she picked me up, carried me home, nursed me back to health. 
Big mistake. 
How could she miss it? How didn't she see? 
I'm a walking virus, a natural disaster. 
Death and violence
 follow me like a second shadow. 
The right thing to do would have been to leave me where I was. 
To let me die a dog's death — hell, I probably deserved it. 
She didn't, though, and it's 
too late for regret.
 
Already, my past has come roaring back with a vengeance. 
We don't have much time left. 
I should send her packing. 
Run, silly girl! Get out while you still can. My enemies are coming…
 
But something deep inside won't let me. 
I had a taste of Sophia, and now, I can't get enough. 
I want to 
claim her
, ravage her until her cries shatter windowpanes. 
And I won't take no for an answer. 
I'm here, baby. I'm never leaving again. 
If you didn't want me — well, too bad. 
You should have 
left me for dead.
