Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 059: Person of Interest II
-Eve-I had never been to a police station, not even when Sal nearly got us arrested. She had called me twice already, and once again, I ignored it. I wouldn't be here if she had just kept her big mouth shut.The police station smelled like antiseptic mixed with sweat and distress. I sat on a hard plastic chair, counting ceiling tiles till I lost track and started over.My heart raced faster than it should've.What if they hooked me up to a lie detector? What if I'm arrested? What if—“Put yourself together, Eve.” I blurted out. At the same time, the door opened.Detective Harris entered, holding a folder with an unreadable expression. Behind him, a voice I knew.Raymond. Yes, he stopped being my father the day he told me not to look for Rachael.My heart sank.He walked past me without stopping. Dark suit, briefcase, and that judgemental look on his face.He spoke to Harris in a low tone, too quiet for me to catch. But I saw the folder. The name on the tab.Coleman. S.I stared at m
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 058: A Psycho Wrapped in Pedigree
-Dominic-My lips twitched as I pulled away from Eve's building. I imagined the look on her face when she opened the bag, the conflicted rage too.I let out a dry chuckle, then caught myself. I had to be at the Langley's in an hour, at Mother's stern request. Also, it was time Grace Langley and I had a chat.The dinner table stretched too long for six people. My father sat to my right, my mother to my left, her hand resting on mine beneath the table cloth like a silent warning.Please behave yourself tonight, Dominic.My father was already three drinks in, laughing at something Victor Langley said about market projections.Grace sat across from me. She had dressed carefully tonight, she was the picture of modest elegance, looking up at me occasionally.I didn't spare her a glance, because beneath all that prim poise, I knew what she was. A psycho wrapped in pedigree.Assaulting Siena Coleman wasn't enough, she had gone as far as attempting murder.I had seen something similar on her
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 057: The Rose
-Eve-The shop had no windows. Just a black door between a laundromat and a bodega, it was the kind of place one would miss if they weren’t looking hard enough.Ana’s card had the address scrawled on the back in purple ink. I almost hadn’t come.But then I’d spent three hours staring at my ceiling, thinking about tomorrow, about everything till I nearly allowed my thoughs to consume me.So I came…. To clear my head, that is.My heart raced the moment I stepped inside. The air smelled like plastic and something sweet, vanilla maybe, overlaid with a chemical edge. There were racks of things I didn’t have names for. Things in neon colors. Things with straps and buttons and ridges that made my face burn just looking at them.Not a single person in sight.Stupid, I thought, backing toward the door. This was stupid. What was I even—“First time?”I jumped. A girl about my age emerged from behind a beaded curtain, wiping her hands on a cloth. She had blue hair, a nose ring, and the kind of
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 056: Person of Interest I
-Eve-“Training allocations are being cut by fifteen percent,” Monica said, clicking to the next slide with a force that was more than necessary.I was stuck with my colleagues in a conference room that smelled too much of her perfume.“If that’s a problem for anyone, I suggest you take it up with HR.” She snapped.She’s either on her period or something, I thought, slumping lower in my chair.My phone buzzed again. Fifth time this morning. Sal.I ignored it.Monica’s voice droned on. Something about the selected charites for the boating regatta. Something about quarterly projections. My mind kept drifting back to yesterday. To Alex’s apartment. To his hands, his mouth, the way he—“Keller?”I jolted. “What?”Monica’s eyes narrowed. “I asked if you had the Lure post-launch report.”“Um. Yes. It’s—I’ll email it after lunch.”She clicked her tongue and moved on. I exhaled, sinking back into my chair, my face burning. Around me, the team shifted, checked phones, doodled on notepads. No o
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 055: The Night We Kissed
-Eve-It was foolish to think that running a mile after years of physical inactivity would make me feel better. I only felt worse.I stopped at a bench at a park to catch my breath, but legs wobbled like jelly.Sal crossed the line. She fucking did. I chanted in my mind.I pulled out my phone and searched on Siena Coleman. The article popped up, her name published as the writer.Unconscious Siena Suffers Seizure After Intruder Appears In Hospital Room.By Sally Turner.The article talked about the seizure and contained an account of an eye-witness who saw the intruder in scrubs. Me.“Fuck you, Sal.” I spat, blinking rapidly to fight back tears.At the same time, her words lingered. She was kind of right. I was the one standing in the way of finding my sister. I had let doubt and fear creep even though I badly wanted to find her.Without thinking, my fingers thumbed on one of my social media app. My profile was empty, just my username and a profile picture of me from college graduation.
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 054: Broken Trust
-Sal-Three days later.“…I’m so glad we finally got to catch up, it’s been a hectic week.” Eve said, attempting to do one of those her pancake flips that always failed.“Me too.” I grinned. “Me too. So tell me more about Alex. And I mean the dets. All of it.”“There’s really nothing to tell.” She shrugged.I smirked. “Are you saying you two haven’t had sex?”She turned sharply, chuckling nervously like she always did when she was uncomfortable with something.“Alex and I have been busy all week, we’ve barely had time for ourselves.”“So no sex?” I said firmly.She squirmed, fiddled with her fingers, and then returned to the cooker.I chuckled underneath my breath. Oh, how I enjoyed doing this.“My mom is doing much better now. The doctors hope she can come home soon. I’ve been looking into rehab. She wants to get into a sobriety program.”“Well, it’s a good thing.”She nodded. “Yes….And we’ve been speaking. We’re trying to work out our differences. It’s been great.”“Did you two talk
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 029: Rain, Bruises and Excuses
-Dominic-“Come on, Storm, one more lap,” I muttered, gripping the reins tight. The rain drenched me, pouring down my face, but I didn’t care I needed this.I had been out on the estate since dawn, riding Storm through the rain. It was the only way to shake off the anger left over from last night,

-Eve-I let out a shaky breath, fighting back tears as I returned to the building. By now, the traffic had reduced and the only ones left here were probably working overtime.Once I got into the elevator, the entire moment replayed in my head.The way his voice had dropped. The way his hands had st

-Eve-Once again, Dominic smiled at me, and I didn't know what it meant.I alighted the car, my eyes scanning through the surrounding like they held answers.It looked like we were in the middle of nowhere, on the outskirts of the city. An inclined gravel path that cut through the trees and led to

EveIt was Alex. I'd realized through the tears clouding my eyes. He didn't let go as he led me to a balcony overlooking the city.He let out a soft sigh like he was more frustrated than I was. “I’m sorry you had to see that, but that’s just the kind of man Dominic is.” he quietly said. My brows
