    “Tell me again what you said at the revel,” he says, climbing over me, his body against mine.

    “What?” I can barely think.

    “That you hate me,” he says, his voice hoarse. “Tell me that you hate me.”

    He kisses me harder.

    “I hate you,” I breathe into his mouth. “I hate you so much that sometimes I can’t think of anything else.”
