Lucille’s pov

Everyone had believed we moved to Staple Town because of my dad’s new job but only if they knew the truth. I thought I could turn a new leaf here, become another person forget everything that had happened and maybe, just maybe change who I am but the truth still remained. I stayed away from friends, wanted to isolate myself, a way to punish myself for everything gone wrong and focused on my sports. Until I saw her the first day at school, and her kind gestures towards me from tha

  • Craving you: Locked Desires   Chapter 20

    Marcella pov I rushed for the laptop but she scrambled onto a chair, holding the device high above her head. She didn't actually know about my past atrocities so she didn’t have the motive of knowing it’s content. She just wanted leverage to make me comply. "I’ll hand it over," she said, breathing heavily, "but only if you agree to come to the party with me tonight." “Yes! Fine! I'll go!" I snapped, the words tumbling out in a desperate rush to keep my secrets buried. “Promise?" she challenged. I gave her my word, and only then did she climb down and hand over the laptop. I clutched it to my chest, letting out a long, shaky breath of relief. Sensing her victory, Rose stayed to supervise. Under her direction, I put on the gown she’d chosen. It was a perfect fit, a little bit tight and skimpy but still perfect. She helped me with some light makeup, and before I could protest further, I was being ushered out the door. It was a welcome party for the freshmen. Honestly, I hadn't even

  • Craving you: Locked Desires   Chapter 19

    Marcella’s pov “We’re going out for a party tonight” she told me moving from one place to another trying to put her things in order. It’s been barely few weeks I moved into college, I had only spent time with Rose not been able to make friends at class but I did have a nice chat with few of my colleagues, it felt nice and refreshing, my mind was getting free gradually, the thought of her was beginning to feel like a dreams thought. I wasn’t haunted anymore like I used to be, I was beginning to adjust to the new life here, I spoke to my sister regularly on the phone, my mum called me everyday on a video call and my dad was always texting, calling, he did everything to keep me close.Rose’s invitation to a party was unexpected. Back home, there was a specific lifestyle I had craved that my mum always denied me. I wanted a life of solitude, a hidden identity, few friends and less outings, more of a life of an introvert. At home it was impossible with my mum forcing the world onto my s

  • Craving you: Locked Desires   Chapter 18

    Marcella’s povIt was my new roommate. “Hey!" she chirped, throwing her arms around me in a sudden, tight hug. I stiffened, my arms hanging uselessly at my sides, startled by the unsolicited touch. “Oh, I’m sorry..." she said, finally pulling back with an apologetic grin. “I’m a big hugger." “It’s fine," I replied softly, trying to regain my composure. So, I actually met your mom a while ago," she said, gesturing around the space. Taking me inside for a little tour. “She is super cool. She literally refurnished this entire place before you arrived, can you believe it? You guys must be super rich….I mean look at all this” I looked around the room, and a weight settled in my stomach. The room was breathtaking, elegant, polished, and dripping with class but it reeked of my mother’s touch. It was a masterpiece of her design, and I hated it. I had come here for a fresh start, not for her to buy my way into a "perfect" college experience. She was already doing what she did best, cur

  • Craving you: Locked Desires   Chapter 17

    Marcella povI couldn’t sleep. I spent the whole night with my eyes pinned open at the ceiling, terrified that if I drifted off, the hauntings would return to claim my dreams. Instead, I lay in the dark, my mind racing through every possible catastrophe that could await me at college. When the alarm finally cut through the silence, I was already sitting up. Today was the day, I forced myself out of bed and began the motions of getting ready. I knew better than to wait for a second wake up call, my mother wasn't the type to ask twice. I had skipped dinner the night before, and unsurprisingly, no one had bothered to check up on me. I could already imagine the excuses they’d made in my absence. My father would have waved it off with a chuckle, saying, “Oh, she’s just too excited to eat before the big day," while mum likely gave a more blunt excuse, devoid of emotions, "She’s a grown girl, one missed meal won’t kill her." The only person who actually cared was my sister. She had knocked

  • Craving you: Locked Desires   Chapter 16

    Marcella povMy lips shivering, feeling cold with the dread of the fear of his revelation, I asked in the most gentle way I could. “And what’s that?” Harry didn't whisper. He didn't even try to be discreet. He paused for a moment, drawing the attention of everyone nearby, and then spat the words with pure hatred to my face. “That you’re nothing but a manipulative bitch... Fuck you!" He stormed out, leaving me with the weight of a hundred stares pressing against me while I still laid there on the floor. I didn't move at first. I just looked back at them, my chin tilted high despite the wine soaked fabric of my dress. I got up gently and looked at my dress, I looked horrible, and I knew it, but I refused to let them see me break. I eventually left the scene, walking out of the spotlight and into the sanctuary of the restroom. I needed to scrub the humiliation off. My heart was still hammering against my ribs, not just from the insult, but from the terrifying realization of what Harry

  • Craving you: Locked Desires   Chapter 15

    Marcella’s pov It happened on a prom night, and I had a date. His name was Harry, the resident class nerd. Now, I was a bookworm myself, but I wasn’t "weird." I was cool, well styled and well connected, thanks to my sister’s social status and my own circle of friends.Countless guys had asked me to the dance, but I’d turned them all down. It sounds arrogant, I know but come on… who wouldn’t want to go on a date with Marcella Solis? You could call me weak, fragile, or shy, but the one thing no one could take from me was my appearance. I was born beautiful, and I knew it. Even when I tried to blend into the school hallways, the attention followed me. I was always reserved because I was shy yet that didn’t stop me from being noticed. My beauty has always paved the way in unimaginable ways. As the daughter of a billionaire, everyone knew my name, I dressed with a deceptive simplicity. I looked my age, sure, but every "plain" dress I owned cost a small fortune, my mother saw to that. I
