Dangerous Obsession Chapter 12
Chapter Twelve Aphrodite We stared at each other as I waited for him to answer my question. “No. I only met you at the company. You must be imagining things,” he chuckled, masking his expression instantly making me wonder if I was truly imagining things. I giggled in embarrassment, my cheeks tainting in a little red. “You are right.” I said. “Huh….I’ve got to go,” I add, the atmosphere a little awkward.“Alright. Do you care for lunch with me?” He asked. I stared at him a little surprised at his request. “Just a friendly lunch,” he clarified. I scolded myself inwardly for thinking he likes me. “Oh! I would love too,” I answered. He smiled at me innocently, and I stared at his face transfixed. He was handsome, and manly, but not as Thorne. I frowned at my thought. Why was I thinking of Thorne?“Are you okay?” Knox snapped me out of my thoughts, looking worriedly at me.“Yeah. Just thought of something. I’ve got to go now,” I gave a small wave, and turned sharply to leave. The abru

Chapter ThirteenAphrodite Phoebe left the office after chatting with me, and I got busy with my work, trying to sort out all of the documents fast so I could go home and rest as I kept yawning, and my eyes closing. I sat in the floor, different papers and document surrounding me as I picked the one that were important and placed them in one side and threw the others away in the trash can I had drew towards me for easy access. A soft firm knock resonated in the room. I looked up from what I was doing, wondering who it was. “Come in,” I called out. The door opened, and Knox came in. “Hi,” I greeted, standing up from my sitting position. “Hi. You look busy,” he stated. “Yeah. I’m trying to round up so I could leave early,” I answered, giving him a small smile. “Oh! It’s lunch break now.” Knox said, as if to remind me of something. My brain clicked at his words.“Oh yes. I’ve forgotten, got carried away. Let me get my bag,” I said, walking towards my desk, and carried the bag. “L

Chapter Fourteen Aphrodite I turned around to see who she was staring at, my eyes connecting with the angry eyes of the manager, Mr Sam. I averted my gaze, the anger still boiling within me. I wanted to destroy everything.Why was I feeling this way? What is happening to me? I don’t even know who my parents are, or who I was, so why did her words trigger me? I inhaled deeply, trying to calm myself down.“I said what is going on here?” Mr.Sam asked again, this time his eyes trained on me.“I don’t know. Ask her,” I answered rudely remembering the words she had said which got me angered. He stared at me baffled, everyone gasping at my words, but I didn’t care.“Mr.Sam, she punched me first!” Khloe screamed out, her hands holding her bleeding nose. I scoffed at her words.“You two, follow me to the boss office to explain yourself,” he gritted out, as he tried to contain his anger. I glared at Khloe, and Phoebe, as we followed him.My fist ached as the adrenaline started to wear off. I

Chapter Fifteen Thorne I watched as Aphrodite’s face scrunched upward at the sound of her fist hitting the employee’s face. She looked different from now, she looked lethal and filled with blood thirst, and I loved every part of it.She had two sides of her, and that made me intrigued. What was her story? I switched off the tv, and they turned to face me.“Anyone who violates the rule of engaging in a physical fight will be fired,” I said, rolling the seat slowly as I watched like a predator. Mr.Sam gazed at them with a disappointment.“Mr.Rocco, please it won’t happen again. Please I would do anything, don’t fire me,” the other employee said, pleading, trying to stop her bleeding nose.“I’m sorry sir, this won’t happen again. I really need this job,” Aphrodite said, her voice pleading, but not sorry. Interesting. “Mr.Sam, add to their workload and make them write a letter of apology,” I said boringly.“Thank you, sir. Thank you sir,” they both said, a look of gratitude both o

Chapter one Aphrodite I watched the clock, willing the minutes to tick by. I just wanted to get out of this office, go home, and collapse onto my bed. The day's work had left me feeling drained, and I was just counting the minutes until I could leave. As I waited, I glanced around my office, not really paying attention to anything in particular. My gaze landed on a painting that had been placed there by the company. It depicted an eagle, gazing sorrowfully at a fish in the water. The fish looked sadly back at the eagle. It seemed like an impossible kind of love, doomed from the start. I wondered what had inspired the artist to paint such a scene. What had they been through that made them think of a love between a fish and a bird? I admired the way the painting captured such a strange and yet relatable feeling. Whenever I looked at it, I felt a sense of wonder and curiosity. As my eyes swept the room, taking in the vase of flowers, the fine wood of the desk, and the apple laptop th

Chapter Two Aphrodite “I’m Knox. We met on the day of your interview.” He answered, but I felt there was more to it, but I shrugged it off. I couldn’t remember meeting a man named Knox on my interview day, probably, I’ve forgotten. “Oh! Nice to meet you. Although I can’t remember meeting you, but it’s fine. You work here?” I asked. I could see Phoebe from the corner of my eyes face palming her face at the stupidity of my question, and I couldn’t help the blush that covered my entire face. “I..don’t mind my question, obviously you work here.” I rambled, biting my lips nervously. It was a thing I had always done if I was embarrassed, or nervous. He stared at me before chuckling deeply. "It's okay, I was just stopping by to say hi," he said with a grin. "I can tell you guys are busy, but could I get your contact info?" He asked without missing a beat.I could practically hear Phoebe swooning next to me. She had always had a soft spot for men who were assertive and knew what they wa

Chapter Three Aphrodite "There they are!" Phoebe exclaimed as we walked towards Bianca and Khloe, who were sitting on the bar stools, sipping their drinks and flirting with some guys."Hey, Phoebe. You looked great and sexy," Khloe whispered the last part with a smirk. The redhead was dressed in a black net gown that reached up to her hips and completely exposed her cleavage.“Why, thank you!” Phoebe responded in a fake British accent. "Aphrodite, you look stunning!" Bianca exclaimed. Her wide-eyed expression made me feel exposed, like she could see right through me. I tried to ignore the curious stares of the men and the jealous look in Khloe's eyes."Goodness, I guess the Virgin Mary decided to come out to play," Khloe said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. I couldn't help but feel a little put off by her comment. I knew she was used to being the center of attention, and that she probably resented me for taking some of the spotlight.I tried to ignore Khloe's comment, turning my

Chapter Four Thorne Rocco I sat in the VVIP suite, taking in the scene below. I had just opened my new club, Silent, and it was already becoming the hottest spot in the city. It was part of a new investment I had made upon returning from my time in Italy. I was eager to see if it would be as successful as my other ventures."I heard you and Annabel broke up," Enzo said, swirling the wine in his glass. "What happened?"I smiled, thinking of the ridiculousness of the situation. "Well, it's kind of a funny story. Apparently, she had been having an affair with her 'uncle', or at least that's what she told me. But, of course, it turned out that he wasn't her uncle at all, and she was just using me for my money." I shook my head, laughing. "I couldn't believe it when I found out.”"What the hell?!" Enzo said, staring at me with wide eyes. I took a long drink of water, trying to calm myself down. My eyes drifted back to the dance floor, watching the crowd move to the music. I looked up as
