You asked for a job with me and I accepted it. This is all that will be going on between us so drop it and get in the car!" He went to open the door and I pushed it back shut. "No, tell me why you stopped... You've been flirting with me and touching on me since we met. You got into my phone and added yourself as "Daddy Luke" and asked me to sleep with you. Now that you've finally got close enough to do anything you choose to drop everything. No, I want to know why. Tell me." I demanded. He turned and faced me. "Why? It's cause I'm not what you expect. I'm not full of love and happiness. I can't love you like you'd want. I'm not like them men you read about in books or see in movies. I can pretend but in the end you'll get hurt. I could tear you apart if I wanted to. Take away that halo above your head and fuck you into oblivion. I've killed people for my own enjoyment. Tortured, stole from, and threatened people. Do you still want to kiss me? Hmm? I don't think so. Get in the fucking car, Celeste."
