“A-Are you insane?” I whispered, my eyes widening as I looked at him in disbelief. “Do you even hear yourself?”

Smirking, River took a step closer as I took one back.

But then, I realized there was nowhere else to go. I’m tracked on the rail, the very place where he told me to step away because I might fall.

“I thought… You told me to get away from here,” I told him, my throat dry, and my cheeks reddening. “Yet you’re the one who brought me to the rail.”

River didn’t answer immediately.

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 37: Too Late

    [Meet me at the rooftop.]My heartbeat thumped rapidly upon reading his message. Why would he want to see me? And really, still in the mansion, even after his conversation with Dad?Does he really think that his leverage with Dad would work for a long time? Once Dad finds another sponsor for his work, or worse, if it’s Hans… Dad would immediately dispose of him without any hesitation.I shouldn’t see him here. That’s the most valid decision I can make right now.So why is my heart telling me the opposite?[Okay.]And I typed those words before I could even think about it properly.I changed into a simple white dress before I went onto the rooftop, not even caring if the other maids saw me. They didn’t stop me either, so I assumed that my parents had already informed them that I’m not grounded anymore.I’ve been doing this for a long time.Every time I’m stressed or can’t deal with something, I always go to the rooftop. It felt like my sanctuary more than my own bedroom.But this is th

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 36: High Places

    Shit. Shit. What should I do?Before I could even think, I threw the phone under the bed, hoping that the force would be just enough to throw it in the middle and not go to the other side.“Serenity?” Mom called, her brows furrowing as she looked at me, confused by my position right now.My body was slightly bent, and aside from the fact that I looked like I had just thrown something, it also looked like I was trying to reach something.“What the hell are you doing? Didn’t I tell you to behave?”I could hear the annoyance in her voice, but at the same time, I couldn’t focus that much. My head is spinning, knowing that the phone could make a sound at any time.I even forgot to put it in silent mode, and there’s no way I could do it right now since my mom is in the same room as me.And I’m hoping she will go out fast.But the opposite happened.“Tell me, Serenity. What are you trying to do?”She took a few steps forward, and I stood properly before wiping my sweaty palms on my dress. I

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 35: A Long Time

    I continued shaking my head. I’m having a hard time believing it. But at the same time, it made sense to me even if my body was trying so hard to reject that information.My mom… has a clone of my phone?“Serenity, aren’t you spending too much time looking at your social media? You won’t even get any useful information there. Use your time wisely for studying.”“You haven’t added Hans’ account yet. I told you to do that a few days ago, didn’t I? Do it now.”“What happens in the house always stays in the house. Even if Mia is your best friend, you shouldn’t recklessly tell her about our secrets.”My body froze as those words popped into my mind, like a reminder of how everything used to be. I thought those were just random opinions and suggestions.It made me confused because it felt like her words were always timely, but I haven’t given it much thought.But… this is the reason why she uttered those words, because she knew everything.At this point, it felt like Mom shredded another l

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 34: Conversation

    “Am I?”My eyes widened as I felt my whole body freeze. Wait. Was that…“River?” I tried calling him on the other line, but he didn’t answer.He didn’t need to. I know it was his voice. Like my parents, I’ve memorized it in a span of time. But… Is he the one my father was talking to? Not me?When my father said that someone was forgetting their place… Is he talking about River?Then, if that’s the case, River must be the one who gave me this phone and not Dad. But why? Why does he want me to hear their conversation?“I’m not even kidding right now, River. So I will appreciate it if you will take my words seriously,” Dad answered, the authority and coldness evident in his voice. “This marriage arrangement with Hans Continental is not a suggestion or a wish. It is necessary. Serenity must marry.”“And just because of that fact, do you think you can toss me aside? Or ask me to step back?”River didn’t even hesitate when he asked that question. I could even feel that there is something el

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 33: Phone

    “Dad!”I was about to follow him, but suddenly, Mom went in front of me, not letting me take another step.“I’ve been tolerating you for a while now, Serenity. And this is how you keep crossing the line? After all of the things we’ve done for you?” Mom asked, and I could hear the anger in her tone.That’s the anger she was trying to conceal earlier and convert into sadness, and all of it is because she’s trying to control me and trigger the guilt I had.And for a moment, she became successful in that aspect.But not anymore.“I need to follow him,” I said, my tone firm. “Why are you dragging River into this, Mom? He’s not involved in this. As you said, River is not a part of our family!”“Yes. He’s not. And I clearly remember that because I’m not as stupid as you’re trying to make me, but he’s polluting your mind. See how you’re talking back to me?!”“I’m not talking back, Mom. I’m just trying to reason out this situation.”To be honest, I feel like I’m losing it. And it started when

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 32: Different Approach

    I didn’t speak. I couldn’t.My mind and heart were having an exact opposite opinion about this.And even if I tried to fight it, the fear was already buried in my heart. It’s not something I could remove immediately just because I want to.“No.” Shaking my head, I removed my hand from his cheek with more strength, and I succeeded.I have a feeling that he could stop me if he really wanted, but he just let me be, as if giving me time because he knew that this… everything was so sudden.Everyone was looking at us, and I didn't want them to get the wrong idea. So I forced a smile with a calm and sweet composure.“Thank you for the dance, River,” I told him as I made a bow before I left the dance floor.Across the room, I saw Hans watching me, staring at me with an emotion that I had figured out just now.His gaze… It wasn’t just jealousy.It was an obsession being born.And I don’t like it.*****Thankfully, the party ended after an hour. I don’t even know how I lasted, but I’m glad tha
