Forbidden Obsession

One look from him, and I knew this summer would either be the best thing that ever happened to me or the mistake that destroyed everything.The private car rolled to a stop on the sweeping driveway of the Voss estate, and I stepped out into the warm coastal air, my sundress fluttering against my thighs. The cliffside villa rose up like something out of a dream, all glass and stone overlooking the crashing waves. But none of that mattered the second I saw him.John Voss climbed out of the infinity pool at the edge of the terrace, water sliding down his broad chest and over the hard lines of his stomach. Forty-two years old, dripping wet, and looking like he owned the entire ocean behind him. My mouth went dry. I had known Mia’s father my whole life, but this was different. This time I wasn’t the shy little girl tagging along anymore. I was eighteen, and every buried fantasy I’d ever had about him came rushing back all at once.“Liana!” Mia screamed, running down the wide stone steps in

Fear had officially lost the battle. Desire was winning, and it was winning dirty.The morning after the storm I could still feel the ghost of John’s fingers between my legs. My body ached for more. I spent the whole time on the yacht waiting for the perfect moment, watching Mia sunbathe on the upper deck with her headphones blasting and a drink in her hand. She was completely checked out. This was my chance.I slipped down into the luxurious master cabin and closed the door behind me. John was standing there in just swim trunks, looking at some navigation screens. The second he saw me, his face changed.“Liana, last night was a mistake,” he said, voice low and strained. “We cannot do this again. Ever.”I walked straight up to him, heart hammering. “You really believe that, Daddy? After the way you had your fingers buried in my pussy last night? You were so close to fucking me right there in the pool house.”His eyes darkened instantly. “Keep your voice down. Mia is right upstairs. Th

Running from danger only made me want him more.After Lena’s slip up I knew we could not sit still any longer. John picked me up early the next morning and we drove to a quiet coffee shop on the edge of the city to start digging into the stalker ourselves.“We cannot trust anyone right now,” John said as we sat in a back booth. “Not even my own team. I pulled some old contacts and found out the black car from the other night is registered to a shell company linked to Kane.”I leaned closer across the table. “So what is our next move Daddy? We cannot just wait for him to come after us again.”John looked around then lowered his voice. “We follow the money. I have an old warehouse address where some of Kane’s people have been spotted. We go check it out but we stay careful. You stay in the car until I say it is clear.”“No way,” I replied firmly. “We are in this together. I am not sitting on the sidelines while you risk everything

The video on that phone proved one terrifying truth. We were no longer alone in this obsession. Someone wanted us dead.The next morning I barely slept. Every shadow in my apartment made me jump. I texted John that I needed to see him immediately. He told me to come to his private gym in the basement of his building where the new security team could watch everything. When I arrived he was already there hitting the heavy bag hard enough to make the chains rattle. Sweat glistened on his bare chest and shoulders.“John we need to talk about those files I saw in your office,” I said closing the door behind me. “The ones about your wife. Tell me the truth. Was Victor Kane really behind her death?”He stopped punching and turned to face me breathing heavily. “Liana you should not have gone through my things. That part of my life is dangerous. I do not want you anywhere near it.”“But I am already in it,” I shot back stepping closer. “That car

Breaking PointBetrayal cuts deeper when it comes from someone you let inside your walls.John did not waste any time. The very next morning he called Lena into his penthouse office while I waited in the next room. I could hear every word through the slightly open door.“Lena you are fired effective immediately,” John said his voice cold as steel. “Pack your things and get out. Security will escort you from the building.”“Mr. Voss please let me explain,” Lena replied her voice shaking. “Kane threatened my family. I did not have a choice. I tried to protect you as much as I could.”“Protect me?” John snapped. “You sold our private moments to the man trying to kill us. Get out before I change my mind and have you arrested.”The door slammed a minute later and John walked into the living room looking exhausted. “It is done. But the damage is already done. She gave Kane months of information.”I walked over and touched his
