All's Fair


Sasha Gold - 2014
    The young lovers are separated for years until Jackson lures Kate back to the farm where it all started, and sparks fly once again.Excerpt from Chapter 2A flash of light broke her reverie. She blinked and looked around to find that he had taken a picture. In one swift motion he captured her wrists and pinned them above her head, and swung his leg over her pressing her down into the mattress. Once more she was his captive and she stared at him in bewilderment.“What are you doing?”“Updating Facebook.” He showed her the picture he’d taken. It showed him lying on top of her, kissing her passionately, his hand on her breast – which thank goodness was a little blurry. “You have a Facebook account?” “I’m updating your page.” He snorted derisively and gave her a look of mild disdain. “I don’t do Facebook.” She stared in disbelief. There was no need for him to restrain her wrists. Shock left her unable to even process what he was doing, much less fight him. Setting the phone down on her belly, he narrated as he slowly typed a message. “Engaged 2 love of my life. Jackson Stenberg OWNS me now.” He gave her a wintery smile and held it up for her to see.She gasped and tried to jerk her arms free, but she couldn’t move more than a fraction of an inch. “Not going anywhere, babe. I’m just about to update your status.”Disbelief made her thoughts reel and spin like bare tires seeking purchase. He couldn’t do something like that. He wouldn’t. Surely. “No…” He tightened his grip on her wrists and drew closer until his face was inches from hers. “You thought we were done. You thought you could walk away, wreck my reputation, leave me and never once look back?”“Holy. Shit. You are the biggest-”He arched a brow. “Keep talking, princess, and I’ll post to your page.”Kate felt heat flush her face. She watched, paralyzed with horror, as he waved her phone just out of her reach. The bling glinted absurdly, the glittering case dwarfed by his hand.“I’m starting to think I hate you, Jackson.”He shook his head and gave her a look of mock dismay and she watched in horror as he pressed the update button. The phone’s indicator spun in the middle of the screen and Kate remembered that the she had no data service out here. She exhaled in relief, but then a moment later a message appeared, “Status Updated.”
