By afternoon, the mansion looks nothing like it did in the morning. People are practically everywhere. Florists carry enormous arrangements through the entrance. Workers climb ladders to hang decorations. Someone is arguing about table arrangements in the dining room. Music plays softly somewhere upstairs while staff move furniture around.

The entire house smells like fresh flowers. The wedding after-party will be held here. The wedding itself isn't even until Saturday. This is just Tuesday. B

  • His Hidden Obsession    Chapter 22: His Possession

    Mask begins to make delicate strokes with his tongue, as he makes good on his promise to taste me. “No, please. Don’t—”My objection shatters in my throat as his tongue sweeps over sensitive nerves with a relentless accuracy that makes my back arch off the damp soil. Despite my begging him to stop, my body seems to be doing the complete opposite of what someone who wants him to stop would do.I sob, feeling helpless. My mind screams at me to fight, to tear my legs away, but my body is pinned under the weight of his control. I start to writhe around him—not to get away—but to fight the swelling sensation his mouth inflicts upon me. “Ohhhh, fuck.. Mmhh,” a moan slips from my throat like a shameless wanton.Every stroke of his mouth is an intended claim, an intimate violation that draws unabashed gasps from my chest despite the horror twisting in my gut.I am Elena Beaumont. I am Elena. I am…“Ohhh, fuck… yeah, hmmm.”I can't help it. I’m embarrassed to admit how good it feels. My squi

  • His Hidden Obsession    Chapter 21: The Darkest Night

    I hear his voice. It’s low, almost gentle. “You shouldn’t have let him stay.”I think I’m dreaming.No.This isn't a dream. It’s a nightmare. And Mask is the monster. I can't believe I dreamed that he got into my room. How did he even find out where I live? Scratch that. Why the fuck is he still on my mind?I try to turn my head. Try to force my eyes open, desperate to escape the nightmare and stop seeing Mask. Suddenly, cold water crashes over my face. I jerk awake with a strangled gasp. My lungs burn as I cough, blinking furiously against the water dripping from my eyelashes. I’m shivering from intense cold.For several seconds, I have no idea where I am. Then I see the trees. Tall trunks surround me, their branches twisting overhead and blocking most of the moonlight. The ground beneath me is damp and cold. Leaves cling to my nightgown. What the fuck? This isn't my bedroom. Panic surges through me. I try to sit up. Pain shoots through my wrists. I feel the tightness of a cord ar

  • His Hidden Obsession    Chapter 20: He’s in My Room Again

    “You shouldn't be here. If my mother sees you—” “I just came from downstairs. Your mother is in the garden fucking her husband. I didn't plan on seeing that.” My breath catches. I don't know why anger floods my veins. My grip tightens on the door. I don't care anymore. I yank it open, walking back into the room with hot rage stirring in my chest. Lex enters the room in unhurried grace, closing the door behind him. “Why are you doing this?” My voice trembles, though I fight with everything I have to keep it steady. “Playing the protective boyfriend in front of my family... putting your hands on me... talking down to Nathan. I thought about it. Yesterday, you didn't care about me. You rejected my proposal. You looked at me like I was a major inconvenience. And today, you looked at me like I was the light of your life. I can't seem to wrap my head around it. What is your game? What do you want from me?” Lex stops right in front of me. He towers over my frame. For a second, his pres

  • His Hidden Obsession    Chapter 19: Ten Feet Away

    By afternoon, the mansion looks nothing like it did in the morning. People are practically everywhere. Florists carry enormous arrangements through the entrance. Workers climb ladders to hang decorations. Someone is arguing about table arrangements in the dining room. Music plays softly somewhere upstairs while staff move furniture around. The entire house smells like fresh flowers. The wedding after-party will be held here. The wedding itself isn't even until Saturday. This is just Tuesday. But since it’s Claire’s wedding celebration, everything has to be perfect before the big day. I sit on one of the couches in the sitting room, watching everything unfold. Lex is across from me. He’s been there for hours, talking to Nathan. Nathan looks nervous. Every time I look up, Lex is already looking at me. I quickly look away.I still haven’t told him about the bathroom. Or the vomiting. Or the fact that sitting beside him this morning triggered memories I’d rather bury. He hasn’t asked. M

  • His Hidden Obsession    Chapter 18: Too Good For You

    My mouth falls open. For a second, my brain refuses to process the word. It sounds funny but why the fuck am I unable to laugh?My mother’s eyes don’t leave mine. I shake my head, but the movement feels more like denial than an answer. She doesn't look convinced. “When was your last period?” “I don’t know,” I reply bluntly.“You don’t know?”Honestly, I haven’t been keeping track. I haven’t been keeping track of anything lately. Between the stalking, the nightmares, the fear, the messages, the strange appearances in my bedroom, and now Lex suddenly inserting himself into my life, I’ve barely had time to think about my own body in that way.“Elena?”“I’m fine.”“When was the last time you had sex?”What the fuck? I can’t answer that ridiculous question. And it's not because I can't. It’s because I know exactly who I’m thinking about.“So you're pregnant for that man, Lex? How long have you been fucking him? How long have you even known him?”My hand instinctively moves over my abdome

  • His Hidden Obsession    Chapter 17: A Complicated Desire

    I force myself to take another bite of food, but I barely taste the flavour. My mind is everywhere except at the dining table.Why is Lex touching me like this? Why does he seem so comfortable playing this role? And why the hell does my body react to him like he isn’t a stranger?The questions scream in my head. He appeared out of nowhere on the plane. He rejected me more than once. And now he’s sitting in my home, claiming me in front of the people who have spent my entire life breaking me down—and making them cringe in fear.Why is he doing this? There has to be a catch. He wants something. But what could he possibly want from me? My body? He didn't seem interested yesterday. But now he acts like he can't keep his hands off me. Or is this his way of getting revenge because I accidentally touched his dick on the plane?My stomach twists with an ache between my legs—a deep, bruised soreness that flares as his fingers press into my inner thigh. My mind flashes back to last night. The h
