Aiden

Getting her to eat was a fucking nightmare.

She cried like a child, tears trailing down her cheeks as she turned her face away . She clenched her teeth when I tried to push the spoon past her lips. And when I finally managed to force it in, she threw it all up on me. The meds weren't any easier. I practically shoved them down her throat. She clawed at my wrists like I was killing her.

Hours dragged by. Her fever only got worse. Her skin burning hotter with each passing minute.

Was I supposed to take her to the hospital?

She looked like a corpse. Her skin pale, lips cracked and dry, body unmoving.

For a moment, I thought she was dead.

I pressed a finger under her nose just to make sure she was still breathing.

I have made corpses. Watched the life drain from countless eyes without blinking.

But this? This was different. And I had no fucking idea why.

I wasn't worried.

No.

I just hated the idea of her dying on me before I was done with her. After all the work I put into breaking

  • Consumed By Darkness   060~ AM ALL

    Leah"Hey," he whispered.I turned my head.He was lying on his stomach beside me, his head on the pillow, watching me like he always used to.His black hair fell over his eyes. Eyes I'd spent years trying to forget. The thin scar that cut through his right eyebrow and down his cheek was still there. I used to trace it with my fingers while he slept."Did you get the life you wanted after killing me?" He asked.My heart ached. "Yes."He chuckled. "Then why do you keep bringing me into your dreams, doll?""I didn't.""I'm only here because you're thinking of me again," he murmured. "Like every other night."His hand reached for me, fingers brushing my cheek. They felt too warm, too real.His thumb pressed my bottom lip. "Leah," He said, my name in that soft, broken voice that undid me.I closed my eyes as goosebumps spread across my skin."Please," I breathed."Please, what?" His voice dropped lower. He moved closer, his breath hot on my face."Please go away.""Five years, and you

  • Consumed By Darkness   059~ LIKE I

    LeahMy fingers trembled around the gun as I aimed it at Aiden's back.This was the opportunity I was waiting for. If I killed him here, no one would trace it to me.So what are you waiting for, Leah? Pull the damn trigger.Aiden straightened and turned. His eyes dropped to the gun, then lifted to mine. I hated how he looked at me, like he already knew I wouldn't do it.He took a step toward me."Stay right there, Aiden," I said, my voice shaking as I gripped the gun tighter. He stopped. "Leah," he said softly.My heart ached at the sound of my name on his lips."Did I ever tell you how much I hated you saying my name?" I whispered.When you're angry, when you touch me, when you try to play the victim like you are right now, I feel it. Every emotion bleeding through the way you say my name."There are a few things you hate about me," he said, a small smile ghosting his lips, "but saying your name isn't one of them."You're wrong, Aiden. I hate every fucking thing about you."Do you

  • Consumed By Darkness   058~ AT ME

    LeahI knew death was the only way out of Aiden's chains, but it wouldn't be mine.Killing him would be easy. I'd watched him sleep enough nights to know it was possible. I just needed to make up my mind to actually stab him. He let his guard down with me, convinced I wouldn't dare. That arrogance would cost him.He stepped out of the closet with his coat half on, sliding a gun into his holster. I hated how his eyes softened when they met mine. He leaned down, his fingers grazing my face. That same stupid smile he wore in the kitchen tugged at his mouth.I turned my face away from his kiss. He pressed his lips to my neck and breathed me in. My hands curled into fists. "Should I get you something on my way back?" He murmured against my skin.When I didn't reply, he turned my face and brushed his lips against mine. "I'll be back soon."I remained still on the bed, listening until his boots faded out of the room. When the room grew quiet, I reached under the pillow and felt the knife I

  • Consumed By Darkness   057~ YOU LOOK

    AidenI dropped the hairdryer on the nightstand and caught Leah before she could limp away. I lowered her gently on the bed. Kneeling, I raised her foot. My frustration boiled with each shard I picked out.She didn't make a sound as I cleaned her injury like she was now numb to pain."Don't do this to yourself, Leah." My voice was soft as I cleaned her wounds. "If you need to hurt someone, hurt me instead."She turned her head away from me, staring at the ceiling. I kissed the top of her foot after wrapping it. She jerked it away and tried to stand. I grabbed her wrist and pulled her back down."I'll tie you to the fucking bed if you walk on that foot," I threatened.She struggled a little more and when she saw it was futile she gave up and lay down. The servant girl leah was close with knocked and came in with a broom.Leah's stomach growled loudly. I glanced at her. "I'll go get you something to eat." In the kitchen, Clare was wiping down the counter. I asked for Leah's food, an

  • Consumed By Darkness   056~ THE WAY

    AidenThe last time she cried was when I found her shivering in the rain.The last time she spoke was after she saw her cousin's corpse. Since then, she hadn't made a sound. The only noises she spared me were the soft sound of her breathing and the occasional hiss in her sleep. She stares through me with empty eyes, moves like a doll wound up and left to break, and I can't deny the truth. I did this to her. I thought it would take three days as usual to get her to come around. A week has passed, and she is only a shell of the woman she used to be. I would rather she curse me, spit those hurtful words, and look at me with hate. Anything but this deadness.And yet, even as I watch her slip further away, I can't bring myself to let her go. Selfish, I know. But I would rather keep her broken by my side than lose her.**************************************Machines beeped steadily as I opened the hospital door to the VIP room.Lucas stood beside the bed, his shoulders hunched as he watc

  • Consumed By Darkness   055~ I LOVE

    Leah I blinked awake, my eyes struggling to adjust to the light and make sense of where I was. My body felt heavy, drained, as if something important had been taken out of me.I felt a warm hand around mine. I turned my head slowly and saw Aiden slumped over the side of the bed, his head resting on the mattress, my hand trapped in his. I stirred, and his eyes fluttered open."You're awake," he breathed, relief softening his face as he sat up. A small smile tugged at his lips. "Thank God.""The baby?" I asked.The smile vanished, and his grip tightened. "You lost it."My hand twitched faintly in his. I pressed my lips together, swallowing the scream clawing up my throat. The emptiness had been there, but I was expecting another answer. It's strange. It hasn't been long since I found out I was pregnant, but I feel like I have lost a part of myself."I see," I whispered, staring past him at the ceiling."I should have caught you," he said."But you didn't."He bowed his head, my hand
