LENA

“Lena. Come on! You need to eat something.” A knock on my door and Ava's voice interrupted my thoughts.

I pulled the comforter higher over my head, trying to block out the noise.

It's been three weeks of living in this dim, stagnant space. I didn't feel like myself and I just stared at my phone screen every time he called or I got a text notification obviously from him. Honestly, I don't know why I was hiding.

Maybe because I found out that he was out of my league and I didn't deserve some

    ADRIANI didn't bother looking inside the box, I just picked up my phone and dialed Marco’s number.“Boss?” Marco’s voice was alert, sensing the hour, the tone.“My house. Now. Bring Dimitri and Jax.”“We’re on our way.”I stood guard in the hallway outside Nova’s room, listening to her soft, even breaths.The doorbell dinged softly then they came in, Marco first, gun already in hand but held low at his side, his eyes sweeping the room. Dimitri behind him, moving with a slight stiffness from his healing ribs but alert. Jax last, already pulling a tablet from his bag, his mind moving to digital threats.They found me in the kitchen, standing over the open box on the island.Dimitri looked at the box, his gaze hardening. He leaned closer and with a sharp, pained intake of breath, he reached into the box.Packed in ice packs that were now just cold gel, was an arm. Severed cleanly just below the elbow. The skin was pale, waxy. The hand was curled in a final, rigid fist.“Jesus Christ,” J

    AVAI stood in the center of my room, hands clenched into fists so tight my nails were leaving crescent moons in my palms. My whole body was trembling—with rage, with humiliation, with a grief so sharp it felt like my ribs were cracking.Official. They were official.The word echoed in the hollow space she’d left in my heart. It made it sound so clean like It wasn’t a messy, illicit, forbidden passion anymore. It was a relationship. He’d won. He’d taken the scandal, the danger, the lies, and he’d polished them into something she could proudly announce to her friends over pizza and beer.And I was supposed to what? Smile? Nod? Be happy for her?I kicked my laundry hamper, sending a cascade of clean clothes across the floor. Pathetic. My fury was pathetic, and I knew it. But knowing didn’t stop the acid burn of jealousy in my throat. I’d spent three weeks watching her waste away, a ghost of herself, and I’d been so sure. So sure that when she finally saw the light, when she finally brok

    LENA“Hey! Guys? I’m back!” I screamed as I pushed open the door to our apartment, the familiar creak and my voice sounding too loud in the silence.Nothing. No Ava blasting music from her room, no Mike laughing at a video on his phone on the couch. The living room was neat, almost eerily so. A thin layer of dust sat on the TV screen.“Ava?”I dropped my bag by the door and walked to her bedroom. The door was ajar. I pushed it open. Bed made. No clothes on the floor. Her laptop was gone from her desk. A cold, irrational finger of panic traced my spine. Where was she? After everything with Gabriel, after the kidnapping, my mind immediately went to the worst places.I pulled out my phone and called her. It rang and rang, eventually clicking over to voicemail. Her cheerful, pre-recorded voice felt like a taunt. Hey, it’s Ava! I'll be sure to call you once I get your message!“Ava, it’s me. I’m at the apartment. Where are you? Call me back, okay? I’m… I’m getting worried.”I hung up and s

    ADRIANIt had been a perfect day with the loves of my life. Lena was curled against me on the couch, Nova dozing against her other side, worn out from the zoo. My arm was around her, my fingers playing with the ends of her hair. I never wanted to move.“I should probably start thinking about heading back,” she said softly, her voice a little drowsy.Every muscle in my body tensed. “Back where?”She tilted her head to look up at me. “To my place duh, Adrian, remember? The hostel?”“I remember,” I said, trying to keep my voice light. “I just don’t see why you have to go today. Nova’s already half-asleep. Stay. We’ll order in. You can have the whole east wing to yourself if you want space.”She smiled, but it was a gentle, firm smile. The one that meant her mind was made up. “I need to check in with my own life. I haven’t seen Ava or Mike in days. I need to grab some clothes. My textbooks are there. I have a life, you know. Outside of… Us.”Us! Even though I loved the sound of that, the

    LENAI woke up wrapped in a cocoon of warmth and the distinct, intoxicating scent of Adrian. For a blissful second, I was disoriented. This wasn't my bed. The sheets were too silky, the pillows too perfect. Then it all came rushing back—the confrontation, the tears, the promises, the way he’d looked at me when he said those three words. I love you.A giddy, almost disbelieving laugh bubbled in my chest. He loved me. Adrian Knight, the man who was my professor, who owned empires and had a dark past, loved me.I reached out, my hand patting the cool, empty space beside me. My eyes fluttered open. He was gone. A tiny thread of irrational panic pulled tight in my stomach. Was it all a dream?Then I saw it. His black shirt, discarded over a chair last night in a much more urgent moment. I slipped out of bed and pulled it on. The fine cotton was soft against my skin, the sleeves hanging far past my fingertips. It smelled like him—sandalwood and rum. I hugged it to myself, breathing him in.

  • Dark Desires: The Professor's Obsession   Sophs's Appreciation

    Hello, my loves. I just wanted to take a moment to reach out from behind the screen and truly thank you all. Thank you for every comment and for the incredible support you’ve shown for Adrian, Lena, and the messy, dramatic world of Dark Desires. Your passion for this story is what keeps the lights on in my writing nook. Knowing you guys are out there, invested in these characters and waiting to see what happens next, is the greatest motivation a writer could ever ask for. I also owe you all a massive apology for the recent silence. The truth is, I’ve been a bit under the weather lately and needed to focus on resting and getting better. I hate nothing more than leaving a story hanging, especially when we’re at such a crucial point! But the good news is, I’m finally getting better. The ideas are starting to flow again, and I am so excited to get back to it. Adrian and Lena’s story is far from over, and I can’t wait for you to see what’s next for them. Thank you, from the bottom of m

    LENAI hated AdrianI hated how he made me feel, how I always just gave in to him, how he always knew what to say to make everything feel better. I hated myself more, for always succumbing to him without as much as a fight.“Are you listening to me?” Adrian said, snapping his fingers in front of my

    ADRIANThe campus was quieter than usual as I walked through the quad, the early morning sun casting long shadows across the pavement. Doyle’s suspension had been the highlight of my week—no more smug glances in faculty meetings, no more thinly veiled insults disguised as academic debate. The man

    EVELYNI stared at the afternoon sun through the floor-to-ceiling windows of my office then leaned back in my chair, swirling a glass of whiskey—neat, no ice—just the way I liked it. A sharp knock at the door interrupted the peace that I was basking on.“Come in,” I called, not bothering to look u

    ADRIAN“You've made the right choice,” the dean said, mopping his forehead. “This partnership will elevate Blackmoore's reputation internationally.” I watched his fingers tremble as he slid the Berlin contract across his desk. I signed, smiling at him. “When does Shaw expect me?”“Friday.” His s
