Chapter 5

**Selina
**

I was angry that Giovanni and Luca kept the fact Kade was the mystery man I danced for.
How could they keep that secret knowing that he was the man who hurt me?
I knew he seemed familiar for some reason. He still wore the same cologne as the first time I met him. I hated that my body wanted to let him touch me all over again.
I was freaking out on the inside that he would take one look at my little boy and know who he belonged to. Kaden had his father's eyes and his dark hair. He was the spitting image of him.
Frankie must be stupid if he thought for one second, he was fooling anybody. I knew he was gay, but thought he would try to hit on me. I told everyone while they were under this roof not to mention the fact I was a fucking stripper. Frankie did just that, like I was a common whore.
I wiped my tears just as Giovanni spoke. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. I know he hurt you, but maybe you should hear what he has to say."
"He fucking left me, I was kicked out of my house when I was barely eighteen. All I had was a backpack and a few hundred dollars to my name. Now, he wants to come back into my life like nothing happened at all." I pounded my fists on his chest and cried out angrily.
"Please don't cry, I can't take it when I see you hurting." He held me in his arms and watched me break down, just like I did when I first met him.
"It just hurts so bad. I want to hate him so bad..."
"But you still love him." I nodded and exhaled.
"Giovanni, he's going to take one look at Kaden and know who the father is." I didn't want him to know just yet.
I would tell him eventually, but not yet.
"Why don't you take the week off?" He offered giving me a sympathetic look.
"No, I need the money." That was a lie. I still had that five-thousand Kade had slipped me at the club.
"Fine, but if you need some time off don't hesitate to ask." He agreed but I knew he didn't fight me because Rose loved watching my son.

Frankie stood in my dressing room as I slipped my heels on. He licked his lips eying me up and down. "Damn Selina, you gonna give me a dance tonight?"
I glared and shoved my shoulder into his. "You're not fooling me Frankie. I know a pussy isn't what gets you hard. However, a cock does. I bet Aiden makes you throb."
He chuckled and muttered. "I know a certain someone that gets hot and bothered by the sight of seeing you shake your ass."
"If you finish that, I'll cut off your balls and shove them down your throat." He was being extra cocky tonight and seriously pissing me off.
I stepped out and stormed away from him. I wasn't in the mood for his games tonight. I was to the stage when someone grabbed me by the waist and pushed me in an empty room.
He gripped me by the throat and squeezed. "You think I didn't see how you've been teasing me, flirting with those men." His touch still made me shiver in excitement. I hated that my body betrayed my heart.
I still loved him.
With his fingers secured around my throat, he pressed his hard erection in my dress. "You feel this?" He ground out thrusting his erection against mine. "That's what you do to my cock. Your pussy will always belong to me, Honey."
"Get the fuck off me!" I hissed in pain.
"Don't forget who you belong to." He bit down on my neck and released me. A single tear trickled down my cheek as he slammed the door.
What happened to him to become this way?
Cold and ruthless.
I shivered, bringing my hand up to where he grabbed my throat. I secretly wished he would spread my legs and fuck me against the wall. It made me weak in the knees the way he took control.
Giovanni was right about one thing, I still fucking loved the bastard.

**Kade
**

I had no idea what possessed me to grab Selina and force myself on her. I never acted like that before. I was just tired of men touching her as she danced for them. My cock was still rock hard from feeling her body pressed up against me.
Luca waved me over as I made my way back to the bar. "Seen Selina running out of here in tears."
"About that, I might have reminded her that she still belonged to me." I ran my fingers through my hair and sighed in frustration.
"Look, I don't know what really happened between you two, but it will all get sorted." He grabbed a bottle of whiskey and smiled.
"I hope so." I wished I had never left her in the first place. If it weren't for her father sending me away, I would still be with her. We would have a family by now. I wouldn't have joined the military, but then I would never have met Frankie.
I do regret leaving her, but don't regret ever meeting Giovanni.
Claire slipped behind the bar and wrapped her fingers around my bicep. "Kade, you going to spend the night at my place?"
I nodded my head. "Yeah, but I just want to talk. Your offer still stands, right?"
"Of course."
My mind drifted off to the conversation I had with Frankie after I sent him to get some information about Selina.
"She wouldn't tell me who the father was, just that he left her. She didn't suspect a thing."
"Did she say anything about me?"
"No, sorry man. She did say her heart belonged to someone though."
I whipped around to face him angrily. "Who?"
I fought the urge to run in there and demand to know why Giovanni hasn't told me she was involved with another man. I walked in the opposite direction of the estate and got in my vehicle with Frankie driving away. If I didn't put some distance between me and her, I would lose my shit with Selina.
I didn't want to hurt her.
Soon, my little Selina.
You will be back in my arms where you belong.
