Excerpt:
“You have – you have done this before, right?” he asked, pushing two fingers inside me.
“Been raped?” I asked, and his hand paused a beat before thrusting in again.
“Had sex,” he said in a low tone.
“Yes to both.”
He shut his eyes and bowed his head. “I’m sorry,” he said hoarsely.
His thumb found my clit and circled. A twinge of pleasure shot through my body.
“Don’t,” I said. “Don’t make me enjoy this.”
He stilled for a moment, looking at me. His eyes were dark and unfathomable. For someone getting what he wanted, he didn’t look happy. “Okay,” he said. “I’m just going to make you ready.”
He continued fucking me with his fingers, loosening my body and drawing out the wetness, but he didn’t touch my clit again. I knew it would help me, make this hurt less, but I almost wanted the pain. That’s what a girl wants when she’s being raped. It’s right.
“Hurry up and fuck her,” one of the other men called from across the room. My breath quickened.
“I won’t let them hurt you,” he told me, quietly so they couldn’t hear.
Praise for Keep Me Safe:
“KEEP ME SAFE is a very intense, well-written story. Told from the first person POV of Rachel, this novella is a disturbing and graphic account of her abduction and rape by gang members. Rachel is deeply conflicted because she’s aroused when the man who claims her first, Zachary, uses her. I thought that their first scene together was ‘dubious consent’ perfection. Very hot. But, just when I think I’ve got it figured out, the story takes an even darker and twisted path. Ms. Warren does not play it safe in her writing and has no remorse about it!”
“This is a very dark, gritty, violent, and emotional story that is conveyed in an unapologetically raw, candid voice.”
- Shawna (Goodreads reviewer)
“This is erotic fiction for a very specific reader who likes a darker story, a story that takes you to those disturbing places in your mind where emotional discomfort lingers.”
- S. Richards (Amazon reviewer)
“I categorized this as romantic suspense but it’s really horror. Zachary and Rachel find some kind of love through all of this but what a horrible journey.
Very good, disturbing book.”
- Carolyn F. (Goodreads reviewer)
“I couldn’t help but put everything I was working on aside and read all 125 amazing pages of it. It’s dark, gritty, disturbing, and amazingly fantastic!”
“It’s well written, and I was riveted from the very first line until the very end and read it in one sitting. There is plenty of heat along with mystery and suspense.”
