Elara’s POV

For two whole weeks, I avoided Adrian Martinez like my life depended on it, well maybe it did.

The first three days were the hardest. Every time my phone vibrated, my heart reacted before my mind could stop it. I would stare at his name, 'my first mmm' glowing across the screen while my fingers hovered dangerously close to answering. Sometimes I even picked the phone up completely, only to freeze at the last second before dropping it back onto the bed like it had burned me.

    Elara's POVThe sound of his laughter sent a chill down my spine. It wasn't loud or wasn't dramatic. If anything, it was calm... Far too calm.The kind of laugh that belonged to someone who knew something nobody else did.Rain continued pouring from the sky, soaking the road and turning the abandoned area around us into a blur of shadows and darkness.I couldn't stop staring at the masked man, neither could Helen.The smile vanished from her face almost immediately."What is wrong with you?" she snapped. "Do you even understand what you've done?"The man tilted his head slightly."I understand more than you think."Helen let out an angry laugh. "No. You don't."For a brief second, something dangerous flashed across her face.I could clearly see fear. Real fear in crystal clear and that was what unsettled me most.Helen wasn't afraid of many people. I knew that much from Annette.Yet standing here, in the rain, facing this stranger, she looked genuinely frightene, it makes my heart pou

    Elara's POVThe first thing I became aware of was the cold. Not the kind that comes from rain or air conditioning.This cold felt deeper. It settled beneath my skin and wrapped itself around my bones.For several long seconds, I didn't open my eyes, I simply listened. A faint humming sound, the steady rhythm of an engine, the occasional splash of tires moving through water... A vehicle.I was inside a vehicle. My eyes flew open immediately. Darkness greeted me, not complete darkness. Just enough to make everything difficult to see.My heart started racing. I tried moving and immediately realized my wrists weren't tied. That should have made me feel relieved, instead it terrified me.Because people who wanted hostages usually tied them up. People who didn't bother... Usually weren't afraid of them escaping.I pushed myself upright slowly. The movement made my head ache. A sharp pain pulsed behind my eyes.I lifted a trembling hand and touched the side of my head. There was a small bump

    Adrian's POVThe moment I received that photograph of Elara standing outside the hospital, every instinct inside me screamed that something was wrong.I started the car immediately.Rain pounded against the windshield as I drove through the city.The photograph kept replaying in my head.The angle, the timing, the message.Somebody was watching her, not randomly, not by chance but deliberately.My grip tightened around the steering wheel.And despite everything that had happened between us earlier, despite the disappointment and frustration still burning inside me, one thing remained painfully clear.If anything happened to Elara, I would never forgive myself.The first person who came to mind was Helen. I didn't like it. I didn't want it to be her.But she had appeared out of nowhere after years of silence.She knew things she shouldn't know and she always had terrible timing.Twenty minutes later, I was standing outside her penthouse apartment.The doorman recognized me as usual, im

    Adrian's POVThe first time Elara called, I ignored it. The second time, I stared at the screen until it stopped ringing.By the third call, I threw my phone onto the passenger seat and pressed harder on the accelerator.Rain hammered against the windshield, blurring the city lights into streaks of gold and white.I should have answered, I knew that.Every instinct inside me wanted to, but anger is a dangerous thing especially when it comes from disappointment and right now, disappointment was exactly what I felt.The hospital was already several minutes behind me, yet I could still hear her voice in my head."My real name isn't Elara."Then tell me who you are. Tell me why you're terrified. Tell me why some psychopath keeps calling you. Tell me why an old nun disappears during a blackout. Tell me something... anything.Instead, she gave me nothing.I tightened my grip on the steering wheel. The problem wasn't that she had secrets. Everyone had secrets. Hell, my entire life was built

  • Capitulate Into Sinful Desires    Chapter Fifty Three

    Elara's POVMy scream echoed through the corridor so loudly that several nurses turned at once.The phone slipped from my trembling fingers and landed on the floor with a sharp crack.For a second, I couldn't breathe, couldn't move nor could I even think.All I could do was stare at the photograph lying on the screen.My father... My father.The face I had spent years trying not to forget. The same face I had spent even more years trying not to remember.A nurse rushed towards me immediately."Sister Elara!"I barely heard her.My knees gave way and I sank into the chair behind me before I could collapse completely.The photograph remained on the screen. It wasn't edited. It doesn't look fake. It was real, painfully real.The image showed a younger version of me standing beside my father under a large mango tree. I remembered that day.I remembered the dress I was wearing. I remembered the argument he had with someone later that evening. I remembered every details because three days a

    Elara's POV"My real name isn't Elara."The words left my mouth quietly, yet they seemed to echo throughout the entire room.Nobody spoke, including Adrian, Annette or even the frightened nurse standing near the doorway.The emergency lights flickered again, bathing the room in an eerie red glow before returning to dim white.Adrian stared at me as if waiting.I could see the questions in his eyes.The same questions I wasn't ready to answer, same ones I wasn't sure I even knew how to answer."Explain," he said finally, his voice wasn't loud but it was firm and dangerously calm.Slowly I lowered my gaze."I can't."The silence that followed felt worse than any argument.Adrian laughed once, a short bitter laugh."You can't?"I swallowed hard again."Not here.""Then where?"I didn't answer because there was no answer I could give him.At least not without dragging him into something I didn't fully understand myself and without exposing secrets I had spent years burying.I heard him ex
