Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy Chapter 72
JacobI hadn’t planned on laying eyes on the bastard… ever again.I thought our paths would never cross again in this lifetime, but who was I kidding? I’d agreed to move back to New York with Nathan. To prove to him that my past had no power over me anymore. I just wanted him to trust that I was strong enough to come back to the one place I’d dreaded for years. And somehow I believed in that too. That I’d grown past my trauma.But how wrong I was. I didn’t go snooping around. Didn’t peek at his social media profiles. Didn’t bother asking after him. I didn’t even dare drive by the joints people had said he used to frequent. I’d stayed away. I’d told myself to forget him… or at least pretend to.I’d asked Nathan to get a place far away from his neighborhood, and I’d done the same.But some bastards just had a knack for popping up when you think you’ve outrun them.It was meant to be a typical day, with work, and studying for my masters degree. Class in the early hours, work in the e

Jacob Once, I figured normal was out of my grasp. Given what I'd endured… the pains, the betrayals, the nights spent curled up in the dark, praying for silence… I'd assumed I'd spend my life feeling numb, armored against love.I had built walls so high that even the thought of someone scaling them seemed laughable. Then came Nathan, a man unlike any other I’ve ever met.He didn’t demand anything from me. No treating me like a mystery to unravel or a trophy to show off. No prying into the parts of me I wasn’t ready to share. He didn’t push when I clammed up about my past, didn’t flinch when I recoiled from unexpected touches. He just stuck around, his presence alone scratching away at my defenses, brick by stubborn brick. His hand in mine in public didn’t scream possession. It whispered pride… not the kind that bragged, but the kind that said, ‘I’m lucky to have you.’ His eyes flickered when he spoke, like every topic, no matter how boring, had a secret worth sharing. He talked ab

DanielYears dripped by, thick with the weight of regret. They didn’t go past unnoticed, they clung like a curse, each one heavier than the last. I followed the path laid out for me…graduating with honors, diving headfirst into the family empire, wearing costly suits tailored to perfection, and flashing practiced smiles for the cameras. Yet, everything felt like a phantasm. A performance. Fortune and power grew around me, courtesy of my father’s relentless push. He had always said that if I couldn’t be the son he dreamed of, I should at least forge a legacy for the family. For mom and Sarah. So, I built companies, made strategic investments, and paraded with women… of different classes. Elegant, poised, every one of them handpicked by my father, to reflect the image of success. And none was like Jacob. None had his sharp wit, his guarded smiles, the way his eyes darkened when he was angry or softened when he was lost in thought. I deluded myself into thinking I’d moved on. T

DanielLife without Jacob was like a never-ending punishment. It didn’t hit me like a fat brick on the head. No. It was worse than that.It was more like a slow, torturous ache that inched its way into every part of my life, making everything I had to feel like a sad, pathetic lie. I had all the riches, respect, and family one could ask for, but none of it meant shit without him. The first few months after graduation were hell. I tried playing it cool, somehow trying to convince myself I didn’t need him. That I was stronger than this. Then whatever feelings I had for him… still have for himThat I could move on like nothing had happened. But the truth was, I was drowning. Every morning, I’d wake up expecting to hear his voice, to see his smirk, to feel his warmth beside me. Instead, all I got was utter silence. At night, when I’d wake up in a cold sweat with his name on my lips, I’d reach for him, and all I found was the empty side of the bed. A fucking gap where he was meant to
Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy Chapter 68
JacobAfter that night, with the weird figure staring at my window, I figured it was time to go back home for a while.Back to New York. To the very place where I’d been broken and tossed aside like nothing. The place I’d fallen in love with the most cruel bastard the world had ever birthed. The place that gave me endless nightmares. But if the people who’d hurt me, were here in this very small city, where I’d hidden away, then there was nowhere I could possibly hide that they would never find me.So the only thing I could think of doing was going back home, to Uncle Jack… and Kenny. I needed to be close to family, to think and know my next move. Because there was no way I was going back to that place again. Never. Uncle Jack was very happy to see me, and he didn’t ask questions about where I’d been and why. Though I hadn’t planned to stay long, I was glad Kenny was not home. A pain in the ass like Kenny was the last thing I needed anyway. I took that time and pieced myself to

JacobWeeks came and went. Daniel and I didn’t speak to each other… not once.And it was finally the day of graduation.I disappeared as soon as I got my diploma. The instant my name echoed and my feet hit the stage, I knew this was goodbye. No lingering, no embraces, no fake smiles.I didn't bother with goodbyes. I left them all behind… My friend, Will, and his whispers and advices. Daniel with his insatiable hunger, Mr. Richard, who I didn’t see again, after the hotel, the monster who not only took advantage of my innocence but broke every part of me.I left town on a whim, with what little cash I had. No looking back. I needed some time away from the familiar faces. Kenny… Uncle Jack. The school, the faces, the memories… were ghosts of a nightmare I wanted so badly to bury. And shockingly, no one came searching. As if they all knew this would happen.Uncle Jack only called once, and when I didn’t pick up, he didn’t call again. He loved me, no doubt about that, and h worried abo
