Rescued by a Billionaire – Sneak Peek!
On January 22nd, Queen Keishii returns with a new release and she has a special sneak peek for you to read below.
“I got supreme chicken pizza and mild wings. I left the boxes on the island in the kitchen,” my unconventional knight in tattooed armor remarked, taking a bite from a slice of pizza.
“Thank you,” I murmured and made my way to the kitchen.
I grabbed a slice of pizza and four wings. I grabbed one of the Fiji waters I could see from the clear glass fridge. I decided to sit on the floor across from him since the furniture was white and this food was pretty greasy. Music I wasn’t familiar with played through the Bose speakers situated around the room. I felt him staring at me, intensely but I refused to acknowledge it.
“So, you still not going to tell me why?” he would let this go.
“Why is it so important for you to know? It’s getting so annoying,” I rolled my eyes, though I had no right being annoyed with him.
“Fine. I won’t ask anymore. Word of advice, everybody ain’t out to get you. There gotta be something wrong up in that pretty head of yours to want to kill yourself. I can’t even believe I wasted my time trying to help you. You win, ma, I won’t speak to your ass no more.” True to his word, he finished his food and drink in silence.
I felt bad for pissing him off but I had to guard myself. I didn’t trust anyone. The wall I formed around me and my heart was my defense mechanism not to let another person take me for granted. I didn’t know my purpose in life due to all the heartache I’ve endured in my twenty-seven years on earth. There was no silver lining for me and there was no room for new acquaintances. Things were essentially better if I drew the line in the sand now, rather than later.
