LOGIN"Temptation so strong that it ended up crossing all limits of madness." "S-Stay b-back Adrian, p-please." His leather boots clanked against the tiled floor as the sobbing girl continued crawling backwards while watching the man with alarmed eyes. His expression was stern, but the streaks of red covering the bottom of his almond eyes indicated his wrath. "Get up. There's no need for you to be afraid." He tried calming her down, but she knew it was all a pretence. She tried escaping him; there's no way he could be calm about it. Her heart lurched in her mouth as her back hit the cold wall. Placing his knee on the floor, Adrian crouched down to her level and raised his hand to wipe her tears. "Sshh. First, calm down," he soothed her and caressed her cheek. Running his fingers through her locks, he gently swept them from her face and cupped the back of her head. Claire squirmed in unease as she felt his fingers gliding through her bare nape. "W-What are you doing?" Her struggles turned frantic as his grip turned rough. From the corner of her eyes, she saw him pulling out a syringe. Her eyes widened in horror, and before she could understand, he pierced the needle deep into her flesh. "Now you can go wherever you want to." Her heart stopped. He just planted a tracker inside her.
View MoreThe dining hall was cloaked in silence, broken only by the soft clink of cutlery against porcelain. At the head of the long mahogany table sat Xavier, radiating an authority that demanded obedience without uttering a single word. His sharp, unwavering eyes remained fixed on Adrian throughout the meal, studying him with the precision of a hawk stalking its prey.Adrian noticed. Of course he did. But he didn't allow the scrutiny to unsettle him. He continued slicing his steak with practised composure, though a faint suspicion lingered at the back of his mind.Why hasn't he questioned where I was last night?His father wasn't a man who overlooked anything. Not a missed meeting. Not a delayed arrival. Certainly not his son's unexplained absence.The silence stretched, heavy enough to suffocate."Why haven't you attended university for the past week?"The knife stopped mid-cut. For the briefest fraction of a second. It was so subtle that anyone else would have missed it.Anyone...Except h
With that, he lowered his head and kissed her waist. Claire tried moving away, but he stopped her by grabbing her thighs, opening them apart and lifting her skirt. Adrian stared at her red lacy panties like a hungry animal.His craving turned unbearable. His fingers itched to touch them. And he did. Her heart thumped wildly against her chest when she felt him skimming his fingers on her inner thighs before stopping at her pussy."No, stop!!!" Claire squeezed her eyes shut when he caressed her covered dignity. Slowly. Tenderly."I need it, Claire, or else I will die," Adrian confessed, his eyes darkening as he lowered his head and planted a wet kiss there.Claire sprang into action without a second thought. As she struggled, the knot around her wrists loosened just enough for her to wrench her hands free from the restraints. She shoved both palms against Adrian's chest, desperate to push him away.But Adrian was faster.A tearing sound echoed in the room, freezing her body as he tore h
"I built these walls to keep you safe.To feed you.To keep you warm.To make sure no harm ever reached you.But if you ever mistake my home for a prison...I'll lock every door.Not to punish you, Cherry.To protect you.After all, the safest bird is the one that never learns how to fly away."-Adrian.Her chin trembled as Adrian cupped the back of her neck, forcing their foreheads together. His grip was firm, leaving her no room to pull away. His feral eyes bored into hers, burning with an obsessive need that bordered on madness."You talked about leaving me." His voice was low, almost eerily calm. "I dare you to take a single step out of this mansion."His thumb slowly caressed the side of her neck, the gentle touch a stark contrast to the threat in his words."I've already told you, Cherry." His lips curled into a chilling smile. "You have no existence without me. And I always mean what I say."A violent shudder coursed through Claire. It felt as though every exit had slammed shut
"You keep searching for the exit, Cherry. But I was never building a cage. I was building a world where only the two of us exist."- Adrian"Where is this boy all the time?"Lara muttered in irritation as yet another call to Adrian went unanswered. The familiar automated voice informed her that the phone was unavailable before the line disconnected.With a frustrated sigh, she lowered her phone and looked at Bora, the housemaid, who stood nearby."I am fed up with him," Lara complained. "His father will be home any moment now, and the first thing he asks whenever he returns is where Adrian is. What am I supposed to tell him? That his son hasn't come home for an entire week and I have absolutely no idea what he's doing?"Bora could only offer a sympathetic smile. Everyone in the household knew that Xavier Kingsley was not a man to be trifled with. Being the most powerful businessman of America, he viewed the world through the lens of profit and loss.To him, every relationship was an inv
