It didn’t matter if I screamed or if I fought until my fingernails were torn and bloody, my father was a man of relentless, drunken energy. Eventually, the beatings and abuse became so frequent and so senseless that I simply... stopped fighting. I learned the art of becoming a statue. I would just lay there, staring at a crack in the ceiling, detaching my soul from my body until the air stopped smelling like gin and the weight finally lifted. He would moan on his own, grunt, choke me and do everything he pleased and when he was satisfied he would leave. He would say, “it's not my fault you are so beautiful. I can't help myself dear.”I hated my skin. I hated the way it felt under his hands, and I hated the way it looked in the mirror. I wanted to take a knife and peel it all off, just to s
~~~ TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ~~~THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS CONTENT THAT MAY BE TRIGGERING FOR SOME READERS. PLEASE PROCEED WITH CAUTION…..The door to Orion’s bedroom clicked open, so I scrambled to my feet, my heart clawing at my ribs. I scrubbed my face hard with my sleeves, desperate to wipe away the salt and the terror before my brother could see the wreckage Raymond had left behind."Zayn! I’m ready! I even put my juice box in the side pocket like you showed me!" Orion stood there, his backpack nearly as big as he was, his face glowing with a pride that felt like a knife to my gut.But then his smile faltered. He stepped closer, his small brow furrowing. "Zayn? Why are you on the floor? And why is your face all red?"I didn't answer. I just reached out and pulled him into me, burying my face in the crook of his neck. I held him so tight I feared I might bruise him, but I couldn't let go. He was the only clean thing left in my world."I’m fine, baby," I whispered, "I’m just... I’m so
Raymond’s hands moved with a terrifying gentleness as he set Orion down from his lap. The sight of those long fingers brushing crumbs off my brother’s chin made the air in my lungs burn. I stood paralyzed, my ribcage aching, holding my breath as if the slightest exhale would shatter the fragile safety of the room."Go on, little man," Raymond said, his voice smooth. He gave Orion a playful wink. "The adults need to talk about boring things. Go to your room."I finally found my voice, though it was thin and trembling. "Go, Orion. Get your backpack ready for school. Don't come out until I call for you, okay?""Okay, Zayn!" Orion chirped, clutching his bag of chocolate cookies like they were a treasure. He hopped off the sofa, oblivious to the wolf sitting in our living room, and skipped toward his bedroom.The click of his door closing felt like a death sentence.The silence that followed was suffocating. I finally let out that breath, my shoulders sagging as the adrenaline began to cur
~ Zayn's POV ~I'm not innocent! I never pretended that I was.Life has dealt with me in the most cruel ways and I would do anything to survive, even if it means wriggling through dirt. I had no choice. A man like me who was born with nothing and has to endure everything…I can only keep struggling.The fabric of Rocco’s shirt was too heavy, too expensive, and far too large, swallowing my frame in a way that should have felt ridiculous. Instead, it felt like a warm cocoon. Warm….was a word I wasn't used to. It was strange but somehow it felt comforting.The shirt he picked out for me smelled of that woodsy, masculine cologne and the faint, lingering scent of the expensive liquor he’d been drowning in the night before.As the SUV glided through the waking city, the early morning light turned the buildings into blurry, golden canvas. I leaned my head against the cool glass of the window, watching the world pass by, and for the first time in a long time, the constant, low-frequency hum of
"Fuck Zayn!” I grunted when he grabbed my dick.“You're hard aren't you?” He kissed my jaws as I pulled my head back. He pressed my balls with his fingers and I groaned and looked down at him to see him grinning.This little kitten was messing with me. “Zayn …”“I know.” He smiled as he kissed me again and started stroking my dick with his hands. I leaned into him, letting him work me.The sensation of the hot water combined with his expert touch was almost too much to bear. I buried my face in the crook of his neck, stifling a grunt as he worked me, his own breath hitching as I teased the metal in his skin, grabbed his boobs and playing with his piercings.It wasn't sex, but it was intimate in a way that felt almost more profound. It was like a shared secret in the middle of a storm and I loved every moment of it.The next morning, the sunlight was filtering through the heavy velvet curtains. I woke up slowly, feeling a warmth against my side that I wasn't used to. I opened my eyes
The door to the penthouse suite barely had time to click shut before I had my hands on him again. We were stumbling through in total darkness, a clumsy, desperate tangle of limbs and tongue.I didn't care about the expensive vase I clipped with my shoulder or the way my boots scuffed against the hardwood. There was only the taste of him…the whiskey, rain, and that faint, lingering citrus.Zayn let out a breathy whimper as I backed him against the wall, my hands sliding under the heavy trench coat to find the heat of his skin. I fumbled for the light switch, my fingers finally catching the toggle.The room flooded with warm amber light. I pulled back just an inch, my chest heaving, and I couldn't help the lopsided grin that broke across my face. Zayn looked like a beautiful, chaotic wreck. His sharp silver eye makeup was smeared across his cheekbones, and his hair was half-fallen out of its ties, spilling over his shoulders in fiery tangles."Shut your mouth, Rocco," he panted, his eye
Rocco sauntered into the study, the door slamming with unnecessary force. He walked recklessly then dropped into the armchair opposite my desk, throwing his feet up onto the table surface. “Welcome home.” Antonio offered but was very well ignored.Rocco fixed his golden eyes on me, a peculiar frow
~ Dante's POV ~I couldn't sleep. I sat on my private balcony overlooking the estate, the cool pre dawn air biting at my bare chest. The only company I allowed myself was the curling white smoke of my cigar. I puffed slowly, letting the sweet smell fill my nostrils, trying to focus my scattered tho
I burst into the closest bathroom I could find, slamming the stall door behind me. I was panting heavily, my reflection a wild eyed, sweaty mess in the mirror. I closed my eyes and leaned against the cold tiles, gripping my already half risen erection.“Fucking…fucks!” I didn't even know what to sa
Dante’s eyes were locked on mine, intense and accusing. "Are you just going to stand there," he repeated, his voice dangerously low, "and let people touch you as they please?" He raised a brow. I felt a hot flush of annoyance burn my cheeks. “You are definitely not one to talk,” I muttered under m
