Darkest Desires CHAPTER 173
VLADIMIRI woke up feeling more confused than ever. I just fucking slept with Yvonne!I took her over and over last night until exhaustion finally defeated us. Yes, I drank a few glasses of whiskey but I'm not even tipsy yet!How can I do that, knowing that Riva was waiting for me at home? I can't even do it with her for fuck's sake! She kind of initiated intimacy the other night but I subtly rejected her."I missed you more, Vlad," she murmured as she leaned down to capture my lips.I closed my eyes, pulling her closer to deepen the kiss. I was desperately seeking that feeling I used to have whenever she was close. My fingers buried into her hair, angling her head to have better access to her mouth. Her moans were muffled in her throat when I sucked her tongue. She was already sitting on my lap, her core directly on top of my cock."Take me, master," she whispered against my skin while catching her breath.My whole body seemed to freeze after hearing those words come out of her lips

YVONNEI looked around the walk-in closet, then sighed. I was about to pack my things, but then I realized I owned nothing here. Vladimir was the one who bought everything in this closet. I was just wearing a flimsy pair of lingerie when I was taken here.I chuckled humorlessly. It's funny how it seemed like it all happened yesterday. Now, it's over.I'm leaving. Finally, after being locked up my whole life, I will be free. I know the past few months with Vladimir didn't feel like it, but still, I didn't have my own free will. Unlike now...It felt exhilarating and terrifying at the same time."You can do this," I tried to cheer myself up. I took a deep breath and smiled.I decided not to take anything with me. I have already checked the money I earned from working in the foundation. It should be enough to get a decent place and buy a few things for myself. I looked around one last time. I went around the whole unit, trying to embed everything in my memory. This place meant so much t

YVONNEI stood in the middle of the bare apartment. I just paid the security deposit. I got the deal all thanks to Dave. He helped me because I didn't have a credit history or other requirements. He agreed to become my guarantor.Now, I have a place I can call my own, sort of. I still need to furnish it though. Selene offered to help, but I wanted to do it alone. I don't think it's hard to do since it's a studio apartment. The space is limited. I only need a few pieces of furniture and appliances.But still, I am so excited to make it my own. I grinned while imagining how I wanted it to look like."I can't believe I'm here," I muttered to myself. It still felt like a dream. A dream that turns into a nightmare from time to time, but it's slowly getting more bearable. I keep myself occupied to refrain from wallowing in pain and self-pity.Like now, I just got off from work so I decided to do something productive than cry and lay around for the rest of the day.I went to a nearby home fu

YVONNEThe weekend came by so fast. I'm getting by just fine. I think. The numbing pain in my chest ever since I left Vlad slowly morphed into a dull ache until I couldn't feel anything anymore.I've already moved into my apartment unit the other day. Everything I bought was already delivered, but I haven't finished decorating yet. Aside from the daybed and some other things I already needed, the others remained in their boxes.I was so busy with the upcoming opening of Project Eve that I barely had time to decorate. When I came home, I was usually exhausted and could hardly eat.But it's Saturday today and I didn't have anything to do so I might as well try to finish decorating the place. After eating breakfast, I immediately started working my ass off. I cleaned up first before unboxing the things I bought.Slowly, the whole unit started to come together. I could feel the sweat dripping on my forehead and I was already catching my breath but I kept going."Is it slanted?" I stepped b

YVONNEI didn't know when I fell asleep, but it was already dark outside when I woke up. My stomach is grumbling with so much hunger.At first, I tried to ignore it and go back to sleep but the rumbling was too much to bear. I stood up to look for something to eat."Ugh," I groaned out loud when I realized I hadn't done the groceries yet. After a few minutes of contemplating, I decided to eat out and maybe buy some groceries on my way back.I checked myself in the slanted mirror while brushing my hair. I frowned while staring into my reflection. I looked a little different. Perhaps it's the few pounds I shed.I let my long hair down, thinking I should chop it off one of these days. Then I grabbed a coat before sliding my feet into a pair of shoes and going out of the unit. I went out to find a place to eat.It didn't take long before I found a fast-food restaurant. I ordered a lot. I really wanted to eat here when I was young. Unfortunately, my so-called mother never cared. I was luck

YVONNEI gasped and jolted upright from bed. Loud, incessant knocks on the door startled me from my deep sleep. I frowned, my hazy mind still processing what was going on.What the hell is happening?I tried to pry my eyes open to check for the time. It's only eight o'clock in the morning. I glanced at the door when the knocking continued. It even got louder.What in the world?! Did they get the wrong unit? I wasn't expecting anybody. Who would visit me this early in the day?"Ugh," I groaned as I pulled myself to get up.I dragged my feet to the door. My whole body is aching, probably from pushing furniture and cleaning almost the whole day yesterday. I could have used a few more hours of sleep if not for the person trying so hard to disturb me.I swear, I could yell at whoever is trying to knock my door down!"Who's there?""Good morning!" a cheery voice greeted me as soon as I pulled the door open. It took me a few seconds to realize what was going on.Selene was standing right out

YVONNEI stared at my reflection in the mirror. My long hair was chopped into a blunt bob that reached just below my chin. "Oh gosh! It suits you!" Selene gasped."Thanks," I muttered. That's what I thought too. "You don't look bad yourself."Her hair is now back to its natural blonde color. Its striking contrast with her blue eyes really complemented her. It also looked more vibrant after the rejuvenating treatment she availed."What should we do next?" she giggled while letting her fingers run through the smooth strands of her hair.Honestly, the massage worked wonders in my body. It soothed my aching limbs and muscles. But I don't think I'm up for something else."Actually, I... want to go home," I said."What?!" her eyes widened as she stared at me as if I'd grown two heads. "How about we go shopping for a while before we go?"I frowned. Shopping? I wanted to ask how she got money to afford these, but I didn't want to offend her. I paid for my haircut and massage though so she mu

VLADIMIR"She rejected everything," my lawyer said as he handed me the finalized divorce papers. "I tried to insist on the money as you ordered, but she was adamant about it."I took it, crumpling the edges when my hands fisted on it. My jaw clenched as I stared at it. That's it. We are no longer bound by a contract. It's over.Why would she refuse to accept the penthouse and the money though? Where the hell does she think she can go? What is she trying to do?I don't understand.I was just trying to put her life on set before I... Before we part ways. It's not like I was asking for anything from her in return. Yes, the penthouse costs a lot, but I can't see myself living there anymore. Especially now that I live with Riva. It feels wrong to bring her there.I can sell it, but..."Didn't she have any demand?" I asked. Perhaps she didn't want to live in the penthouse. Does she like that property in the countryside instead? But that is literally in the middle of nowhere."No," he shook

Darkest Desires EPILOGUE
YVONNE"Are you sure you wanna do this?" Vlad worriedly asked."Yes," I sighed exasperatedly. He'd been asking for the hundredth time already.I cupped his face with my hands, making him look at me."Vlad, I want to do this," I told him, smiling to reassure him that I would be okay."I want to close this chapter of my life before I truly open a new one. I don't want anything to come back and haunt me in the future. I want to get rid of all my demons and leave them together with the past," I told him honestly.He stared deep into my eyes for a while."Okay..." he finally sighed. "Do you want me to come with you?""What? No!" I exclaimed. "Just stay here and wait for me," I said."Damn it. Why does it sound like you're talking to a pet?" he snapped.I chuckled, looking at the annoyed expression on his face."Don't worry, I'll make it up to you when we get home," I winked."Fine," he snorted half-heartedly. I knew he wouldn't agree to this, but I feel like I really need this before moving
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 220
VLADIMIR"You killed them!" Jade cried, her voice dripping with bitterness and rage. "You killed my family! You should die, you monster!"I frowned. I gently grabbed Yvonne to push her behind me. She seemed reluctant, but I insisted."You know very well I wasn't the one behind your family's ambush," I told her in a low but commanding voice."But you were the reason why they were in that kind of business! You dragged them to hell when you let them join your illegal activities!" she yelled. "Leon told me everything!"I gritted my teeth. I thought she was one of the smartest women I knew. Now, I'm beginning to doubt it. Why would she believe a word that came out of that asshole's mouth?"Your father was bankrupt. He lost all your money and property to gambling!" I growled. "He kept begging me to let him join my underground business until I did! Even after that, he didn't stop his addiction. He owed people who went after them that night. I have nothing to do with it!""I don't believe you
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 219
YVONNEI ran outside. My heart beats faster the closer I get to the entrance."Yvonne!" I heard Selene scream my name despite the chaos around us. I turned to look at her. I sighed in relief after seeing that she was fine, just like Phil said."Are you okay?" she worriedly asked, her eyes surveying my body, looking for any injury."Yes," I nodded. "Stay here. I'll go out to see what's going on.""What?!" she exclaimed while following me. "Are you crazy?! It's safer here. Who knows whom the shooters were targeting? Stay here!"She grabbed my hand and held me tight."I know. But I should be responsible for this," I told her. Aside from that, I couldn't wait to see if Vlad was safe. I would die of anxiety if I didn't know his state as soon as possible."Yvonne!" she protested but kept following me."Go back there!" I hissed. "Vlad is outside. He'll never let anything happen to me.""What? Is he some kind of superhero now?" she snorted. I sighed defeatedly."Selene, please," I turned to l
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 218
YVONNE"Please be careful," I whispered. I tried to hold on to him, to stop him from leaving, but he still went after his men.I understand. He needs to help them. A lot of lives are at stake. I took a deep breath, filling my lungs with much-needed air.He closed the door behind him. Somehow, I felt safe in the familiar confines of my office, but I couldn't completely shake the guilt away.How about the other guests? The employees? They're innocent. They shouldn't have been dragged into this mess. I don't know what I would do if any of them get hurt or worse..."This is all my fault," Riva cried beside me."No shit," I muttered without looking at her. I felt bad that she was hurt, but I still couldn't help the anger that was slowly filling me from inside out.I don't know everything, but I've heard enough to conclude that she knew Jade was planning this all along. However, she never told anything to Vlad. Just like what she did back then with her father."How could you claim you love
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 217
VLADIMIR"Vlad!" Yvonne cried as I hugged her. I only want her to be safe. I need to protect her no matter what.I closed my eyes as I waited for the pain to come, but instead of the sudden, intense burning pain of a bullet piercing my flesh, I felt a heavy weight collapsing on my back.At the same time, I heard Blaze and Mike coming to help us. Mike kept firing shots, covering us while Blaze helped me get up.I was confused when I realized it was Riva's weight that fell upon me. She was hit. Blaze pulled her up and dragged her inside while I ran with Yvonne. Other guests were also rushing inside the shelter, looking for a place to hide."What the hell?" I exclaimed when we finally got into safety."I-I'm sorry," Riva gasped while looking straight into my eyes.I frowned, getting more confused. How did she get shot? Isn't she the one behind this? Maybe because I tried to take the bullet that was supposed to be for Yvonne. My jaw clenched at the thought that she was the target of those
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 216
VLADIMIRRiva just started a fucking commotion. Reporters around swarmed like bees around her, making it hard for my men to drag her away!Fuck.What is she trying to do? Did she think she could win my favor if she ruined this event?"Vlad, please!" she screamed while trying to get away from the reporters who were shoving their mics and cameras in her face."Fuck it, do something," I hissed at Blaze who quickly moved."Vlad," Yvonne muttered beside me while holding onto my hand. Her palm was cold but sweaty and I couldn't blame her.She worked hard for this. And it's slowly falling apart right before her very eyes! Fuck.I should have known Riva wouldn't stop at anything. What else does she want from me?"Wait here," I whispered to her while signaling Matias to stay beside her.I don't want anything to do with her but this is the fastest way to get rid of her. I walked past the reporters who were asking questions nonstop. Cameras were flashing left and right! Blaze and my other men cl
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 215
YVONNEI stared at my reflection in the mirror. It's been a while since I last glammed up like this. The dress hugged my body in all the right places. The slit on one side showed just enough skin but still looked elegant and sophisticated.The strapless and structured bodice complemented me well. However, I couldn't help but think that something was amiss. I let out a harsh sigh."Is there something wrong?" Vlad asked when he suddenly appeared behind me. I was so preoccupied that I didn't notice when he came. He held me in his arms, his fingers gently caressing the curve of my waist.We were in the penthouse he had just acquired. I agreed to stay with him now that he's here but I'm still keeping my unit."Nothing," I forced a smile onto my lips. "I'm just a little anxious."I told him honestly. I wanted everything to be perfect tonight and I couldn't help but worry that something might go wrong."You don't need to worry," he pulled me onto him and gently placed a chaste kiss on my lip
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 214
VLADIMIR"I missed you," she groaned, making me harder than I already was!Fuck. She's making me lose it when I didn't even plan on taking her tonight! I wanted to take things slow, but she's a fucking temptation!I can't even remember how we ended up like this. I only wanted to surprise her with this new place. Her unit was fine, but I wanted the best for her. I knew she would probably refuse to accept it, so I already had it under her name.I growled when she suddenly bit my lip in the midst of our heated kiss. All thoughts that I had quickly dissipated into the air, leaving only her.I slid my fingers into her hair, pulled her face towards mine, and forcibly captured her exploring tongue with mine, thus deepening the kiss. Our mouths fused until we needed to come up for air. I didn't let her go. We tried to catch our breath against each other's lips."Vlad," she called my name like a prayer, breaking all the reigns I'd been trying so hard to keep."You have no idea how much I've l
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 213
YVONNE"What?!" I snapped at Selene who kept gawking at me as if I was a puzzle she couldn't quite solve."Are you high?" she asked, her voice dripping with genuine confusion.I frowned. Why the hell would she think that?"Something's different today. You look so..." she trailed off while staring at me. She's seriously starting to creep me out."Stop staring!" I groaned, but she only laughed at me."C'mon Yvonne, spill the beans!" she chuckled, making me roll my eyes."Does it have anything to do with Dr. Phil?" she asked, wiggling her eyebrows.She then glanced at Dr. Phil who was busy talking to his patients. I watched as the expression on her face slowly changed. When her eyes returned to me, she seemed more confused than earlier.An audible gasp came out of her lips when she must have realized something. Her eyes widened a fraction. It would have been funny watching her reactions if it hadn't changed to an accusing one."Don't tell me..." she didn't finish but I think we both knew
