WALK OF DEFEAT

I folded the last of my scrubs into the bag with a trembling hand, the fabric suddenly heavier than it had ever been. Maybe it was just me—maybe I was heavier. My body still moved like it had purpose, like I belonged here. But my heart? It was fractured in a thousand places, bleeding behind my ribs.

The feeling of failure weighed so heavily on me. Shame washed over me like I was really guilty, even though I knew I was not. The fear of the possible doom that roamed within. The fear of what was t

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   WICKED FATE

    I tried to pull myself away from that killer and call for help, but I was too weak to manage it on my own."What?" he said, still holding me like he cared, yet his voice spoke another language—one dark and twisted. "You want to call your sugar daddy for help?"Innocently, I nodded. He was the only name ringing in my head. The only help I could hope for. The only savior that I knew never failed me. "I... Aldrich! I want Aldri—"A sharp pain shot through my back, cutting my breath. I was losing my child. I was losing my life. And that was the most terrifying feeling I had ever known."Just to prove that I still do care," Vincent whispered into my face, his breath cold. "I will gladly take you to him. Let's see if he can do a thing, but blame me not if he fails you at the very worst moment of need, Leylla.""He... he... won't... just... ta...ke... take me... to... him..."I didn't know if I would reach Aldrich alive, but I prayed that a miracle would happen. He would know what to do. He

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   THE FATE OF THE CHILD

    I stared in pain as the sun went down, slowly and gently kissing the sky, and darkness began creeping in silently like a dangerous thief. I had spent the last couple of hours alone—thinking, sitting, and walking around the pool area.Aldrich had not come out of the house, something that completely baffled me. I didn't like what I was feeling. It was so unlike him to leave me alone like that, especially when my enemies were all gathered in one space. But that day, for reasons that did not sit well with me, he let me be. He didn't care to check on me. To see where I had gone.Or maybe he was watching me from a window somewhere?With a hopeful heart, I turned toward the mansion. I searched all the windows and open spaces where I thought he would stand and fix his eyes on me, but there was no sight of him.Oh, no.I met a different pair.Two pairs.Marylyn and Vincent. They were standing at the back door, murmuring something under their noses. Their smiles widened when they saw me, their

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   MORE SECRET AND THE DARE

    I wiped my tears with shaky hands. It took a while, much longer than I could ever admit. My eyes burned, swollen and raw from everything I had cried out. Every part of me trembled with unease, torn between walking away and turning back to see why Aldrich still hadn't come after me. I wasn't used to being left behind. It felt so strange. It was so damn wrong.With the last scraps of strength still holding my broken self together, I lifted my head-and if I could, I swear, would have rewound the moment, ignored the person standing in front of me, and walked straight into my uncertainty.It was Martha.My supposed mother, if she even deserved the damn title. That was such a heavy crown on an undeserving person like her. The woman who had never seen a single good thing in me since my childhood days, even until I became of age. The woman who gave birth to me but refused to nurture my dreams. The woman who severed our bond as if blood meant absolutely nothing. The woman who left me to surviv

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   HIS CONFESSION

    All I could do was allow the tears to flow after Aldrich spoke—or should I say, after he explained how he bought me.So all I was at that particular moment was all because of him. He offered me a scholarship under a hidden identity. And all those times he spoke like he had known me from somewhere—this was it. He met my father and got to know everything about me. He paid off the money that that old fool, who apparently happened to be his best friend back then, had given my mother for my marriage. He went ahead and stretched his generosity further by giving my so-called mother a whopping five-million-dollar check just to disappear from my life and never bother me again.No wonder that woman now looked like a two-legged grace. Adorned in riches. A walking display of the good life she had lived through the years. She didn't care what happened to me, as long as she was living well. What a selfish woman. What a disgrace of a mother.So, the man standing and shivering in front of me had peop

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   THE COLD, TWISTED MOTHER

    Silence echoed louder than thunder, and if impatience were a person, that would have been me in that nerve-wrecking moment that felt like eternity. I was sweating, torn between acceptance and denial. Everything proved that the two knew each other. That was undeniable. Their actions were as clear as day.But how on this twisted earth could that be possible? From where did they know each other? And what baffled me the most, what irritated my demons so much, was the feeling that they knew each other too well. Nobody seemed surprised that I was in the middle. They all knew my relationship with both of them.Still, I wanted to give Aldrich the benefit of the doubt. He was always true to me. Could he really have known her all this while? And if they did know each other, why, for heaven’s sake, had Aldrich not said anything about it to me?No.The Aldrich that I knew wouldn’t have kept such a serious thing from me.But then—his actions? The way he evaded my eyes. The way he seemed like the

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   VACATION BLUES

    I was still trying to figure out what he was dealing with when he slammed back into the car, enraged like a beast. I could trace beads of sweat running down his face. His lips twitched even when closed. His hands gripped the steering wheel hard, steering tighter. He didn't start the car-steering wheel and all-he just needed a way to let out his anger, and the steering wheel was one of them. His eyes, deeper than any ocean, burned with a fire I could not name. It was a blend of anger and... fear? I even saw defeat somewhere.His breathing was unsystematic, ragged, and fast. I was sure that if I listened carefully, I could hear his heartbeat from where I was seated. His jaw tightened so worryingly that I thought it would break as a result. Then his eyes shut as he let out a silent groan, his face looking up, as if the remedy for the unnerving situation could only come from above."No. This cannot be happening! Not fucking. Not fucking now!" His voice was deep but soft, just above a whis

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   A WILD MOMENT

    The drive was silent, each of us lost in our own thoughts as minutes ticked by. I could not believe that I was following a man old enough to be my father just to get fucked. That went against my morals, against what I was taught, and against what I always believed in. It defied everything I upheld

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   A STRANGER'S PROPOSAL

    I tensed more, unaware of what he was doing or why I was reacting that way to the mere stranger.And then, his lips curved into a small, knowing smile. “That was swift. I should get hurt more often if you will always come to my aid.”I faintly chuckled at that silly joke. “I will not always be ther

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   AN ACCIDENT

    My chest felt too tight as my feet led me away from the humiliation and pain. I kept cursing and sucking back the tears threatening to pour out of me as I walked to where the pain and regrets dragged me. The pain was too much, too unbearable, but I kept moving as far away from the betrayal as possi

  • FALLING FOR HIS DADDY   BROKEN

    I watched in disbelief as they dressed up lazily, as if they were giving me enough time to process everything. But how could I? How was I supposed to believe that I had walked in on my boyfriend nailing my best, and only, friend?“Care to explain what you are doing here? And why didn’t you knock be
