Leah,

I pushed the door open and barely stepped into the hallway when his hand caught my wrist and slammed me into the wall so hard it knocked the air from my lungs.

I gasped.

His naked body pressed into mine, pinning me so tightly I could feel the thud of his heart. Or maybe it was mine.

"You really thought you could outrun me?" He growled, wrapping his fingers around my throat. A sick grin creeps his lips.

He forced my head up until I met his gaze. His breath was hot against my lips.

    LeahMy heart stuttered as I turned so fast the chair scraped loudly against the floor."What?""He's been here the whole time.""You're lying."She chuckled as she turned, and I followed her gaze to one of the men dragging a large sack into the space.It moved, and a muffled sound came from inside.No. No. No. I chanted, already lurching to my feet."Mmm— mummy—"Freya's hand slammed into my shoulder, forcing me back into the chair the moment I made to move.I struggled, panic flooding through my body as I kept screaming for Roman.And as if responding to me, the sack twisted again, making my chest tighten so hard it hurt to breathe."Please!" I chocked, turning to her, my vision blurring with tears. "Please, Freya... Just let him go. He has nothing to do with this. Please—""Of course he does!" she snapped, her voice suddenly sharp and furious. "If he didn't exist, if both of you didn't exist, Aiden wouldn't have abandoned me again. No. He wouldn'thave abandoned me in the first plac

  • Consumed By Darkness   099~ SOMETHING BRIGHTER

    LeahWhen I opened my eyes again, I was in the backseat of a moving car.My head throbbed as I tried to sit up, only to realise my hands were tied behind my back."Oh good," Freya said from the passenger seat as she turned to look at me. "Sleeping beauty is awake.""Where is my son?" I demanded immediately."Safe. For now.""The fuck do you mean for now!" I screamed, and that was when my gaze moved past her to the driver."Storm?" My voice came out confused, my mind struggling to make sense of it.He was Aiden's right-hand man. So why the hell was he together with Freya?I stared at the back of his head, waiting for him to say something. Anything, even though I knew there was only one explanation to it. But he didn't look back nor acknowledge me. He just kept driving down the empty road.Freya chuckled beside him, her hand sliding over to rest on his arm."Oh, don't look so shocked," she said. "Storm had always been on my side, isn't that right?"Storm didn't reply, and it only made

    LeahFreya tilted her head toward Roman, a thin smile spreading across her face. "Hello, sweetheart."Cold rushed through me as I stepped in front of Roman immediately."What are you doing in my house?" I demanded, fighting to keep my voice steady.She laughed softly, "Waiting for you, obviously.""I don't remember us being that close."Her smile widened as she slowly stood, checking the magazine of her gun like she had all the time in the world."Your words wound me, Leah. I thought we were closer than that, especially after everything we survived together in the past."She started walking toward us, and I backed away, pulling Roman with me until my back hit a wall of muscles. "Miss me, princess?" the familiar terrifying voice murmured against my ear as his hand slid around my waist.Julian.My stomach twisted, and I tried to move away from him, but he held me in place as he brushed his disgusting lips over my neck.I wanted to crawl out of my skin as his hands got bolder."Get your

  • Consumed By Darkness   097~ INTO IT AND

    LeahIt was a hot afternoon. I sat on one of the porch chairs as I watched Roman and Aiden playing football in the yard.Roman kicked the ball with dramatic aggression while I cheered for him. "Go, baby!"Aiden shot me an offended glare. "Why do keep cheering for only him?" he whined.Fuck. He looks cute when he does that.Roman puffed up proudly. "Because I'm better than you.""Oh. I'll show you," Aiden scoffed."Aiden," I warned, but it was too late.He had already kicked the ball and finally scored his first goal in two hours. "Goal!" He shouted, throwing his hands into the air in victory as he circled their makeshift goal post.Roman stood still, watching him not the least bit excited about his opponent winning. Aiden turned to see him not smiling then to me who shook her head slowly in disappointment. His celebration died instantly."I'm sorry," he muttered, lowering his head like a kid who was ganged up on.They started again after he spent hours convincing Roman to keep play

  • Consumed By Darkness   096~ UNTIL YOU STEPPED

    Leah I woke up alone, frowning at the empty space beside me.Roman usually waited for me to wake up before leaving the room.My ribs protested as I pushed myself up, pressing a hand to my side before swinging my legs over the edge.The cabin was unusually quiet , and I could hear the rustling of paper coming from the living room.I followed the sound down the hallway to find Aiden lying flat on his back on the rug, dead asleep while Roman knelt beside him, permanent markers of different colours uncapped and scattered everywhere. There were also drawing sheets littering the floor, a few scribbled on, and a few clearly abandoned once he found a better canvas, Aiden's face.He had drawn thick blue eyebrows, a red mustache, and green whiskers across his cheeks. His tongue peeked out in concentration as he carefully added something near Aiden's chin.I pressed my lips together to stop the laugh threatening to escape.Roman suddenly stiffened and slowly turned his head toward me. His eyes

  • Consumed By Darkness   095~ BUT DARKNESS

    AidenI cleared my throat, willing my body to cooperate. After a few deep breaths that did absolutely nothing, I pulled out a stool and sat across from them."How was your night? I asked.He ignored me, turning his head away.Leah gave him a look. "It's rude not to answer when asked a question.""It was fine," he grumbled, stabbing his food.Leah ruffled his hair as a reward, and he smiled up at her.Then she turned to me and mouthed, "Later."My entire body straightened immediately at that single word.Unfortunately for me, Roman did not sleep after breakfast, neither did he in the afternoon nor show any sign of fatigue after dinner.I sat on the couch, legs bouncing impatiently as I watched him lie comfortably with his head on Leah's lap, her fingers absentmindedly playing with his hair while he watched something on her phone."Aren't you going to bed, Roman?" I asked, trying my best to hide my annoyance."Nope," he replied without taking his eyes off the phone, his legs now kicking

    AidenAfter taking the keys from the driver and dismissing my men, I drove her to her place. One call was all it took to find where she lived.I rested my head against the steering wheel watching her sleep. She was fucking beautiful. Calm when she slept and a spitfire when she was awake. Even in

    Leah The hallway tilted, and my heartbeat pounded in my ears. I was still finding it hard to believe he was really standing before me. But he was. He still had the same scar on his face, the same lips, the same eyes, except now — His gaze shifted and locked on mine. — they looked at me withou

    Aiden The first time I opened my eyes in the hospital, I felt it deep in my soul that I had forgotten something important. But the more I tried to reach for it, the worse my head pounded until the pain forced me to let it go. I didn't understand what I lost until I saw her that day in the hallway

    Leah Low music hummed in the background as I stepped into the bar, the heavy scent of whiskey thick in the air. I spotted Freya easily since she was one of the five people inside, tucked into a corner booth. Her fingers curled around a drink she hadn't so much as sipped. When her eyes lifted to m
