Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy Chapter 98
Nathan It’d been a few days back at my parents' house. I found myself back in my father’s study, the gloomy light making the shadows stretch like long fingers across the room. The scent of old leather and dusty books wrapped around me, once a comfort, now feeling like chains. In my grip, a tattered folder, its pages yellowed with age, held secrets that had taunted me since I stumbled upon them…papers filled with betrayal and a tragedy that linked both Jake’s family and mine… together. One photo in particular had grabbed my attention, showing my dad and a man all chummy, grinning as they clasped hands. Jacob’s Dad.It was taken right before the fire that wiped out Jacob’s family. The photo was a stark fucking reminder of the messed-up history we shared. I’d found the folder when I was just a teen, poking around for something to read. The floorboard near my father’s desk was loose, and when I pried it up, the hollow space beneath revealed a stack of documents wrapped in twine.
Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy Chapter 97
JacobThe first time when Nathan found us together in my apartment. An apartment he paid for, I promised it'd be the last. His key twisted in the lock, too early, a surprise, and Daniel had just enough time to yank his pants up before Nathan was there, gaping at us from the doorway, the grocery bags falling and apples rolling out like they were embarrassed on our behalf.“Get the fuck… out!” Nathan's voice cracked like it was going to break. But Daniel, that sly son of a bitch, just smirked, buttoning up his shirt. “You heard him. You need to go."When Nathan went to work the next day, Daniel was back in my kitchen, lounging like he owned the place. Since I’d refused to go over to him, he had made it his mission, to never stop tormenting me.“I told you not to come here," I whispered, looking at the door like it was my only escape. “You say a lot of things, Pretty boy.” He took my wrist, thumb playing with my pulse. “Doesn't mean I care about them… well most of them."I hated

Nathan I studied him from afar, his eyes glued to his phone, but I could feel it. Something was off with Jacob, and it wasn’t just the dark circles under his eyes or the tension from work. This was a shift in his mind, a change that seemed to have lodged in his very marrow. It was a shift that had occurred over the last few weeks, a transformation that was palpable yet unspoken. He wasn’t the same. Not the vibrant, warm-hearted man I’d come to adore. Now, he was a stranger, lost in thought, detached. Whenever we were together, his eyes had a tendency to wander, and when our fingers grazed, there was no electricity, no warmth. It was as if he was playing a part, going through the motions of love without truly feeling it. I had almost convinced myself that it was all in my head, that Jacob was just overwhelmed. But the truth slapped me in the face, undeniable. I’d caught them. Together. More than once. It wasn’t just the furtive looks or the way Jacob’s eyes lit up like a Chr

Jacob I gazed into the whiskey in my glass, mindlessly swirling it around. The brown liquid caught the dim bar lights, casting fractured reflections like broken promises.The chilly metal of the glass did absolutely nothing to ease the pain gnawing at me, a relentless beast chewing through my resolve. I loathed how much I thought about him…how even now, after everything, my body still thrummed with the memory of his touch. How could I shake the spell he had me under? No matter how hard I tried, it seemed impossible.This dive bar was nothing special… just a shadowy spot with a wall of booze bottles, their labels worn from years of neglect. The air smelled of stale beer and regret, the kind of place where people came to disappear. Still, it was where I first fell for Nathan and had wished it’d been Daniel. That first kiss with him after these many years, still lingered in my mind… soft at first, tentative, like he was testing the waters. Then fiercer, hungrier, like he was stak

DanielLife has this fucked-up way of spinning on a dime. One second, you're living a lie, and the next, reality slaps you in the face so hard you see stars. And right now? I was fucking blind.Jacob stood in front of me, his body rigid, his eyes avoiding mine like I was something he needed to scrub off his skin. The air between us was thick with words we couldn’t speak… every stolen touch, every whispered promise, every fucking time he had moaned my name like it was the only word he knew. And now? Now he was telling me it was over. Done, like it never happened. Like we never happened.I watched him, hoping he'd say something to change the story… anything. A hesitation. A flicker of doubt. A sign that he was just as torn apart as I was. But what came out of his mouth was a punch to the gut. “We have to end this," he murmured, his voice firm but shaky. “I'm marrying Nathan in a few weeks. I'm in love with him."Bullshit.Those words sliced through me like a hot knife throu
Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy Chapter 93
JacobI came to lay beside Nathan’s form on the bed, his body warm and tranquil in deep slumber, the rhythmic pulse of his breaths pervading the room’s silence. He looked peaceful and serene.But serenity was an illusion. Anxiety gnawed at me, a torment that tightened my chest and parched my throat. How could I lay there, pretending to be someone I wasn’t, with the truth I harbored festering like a toxic secret? The weight of my deception pressed down on me, suffocating in its persistence. Every breath I took felt stolen, every moment of peace undeserved. Nathan slept soundly, his features softened by dreams I could never share… dreams untainted by the rot festering inside me. I moved cautiously, trying not to wake him from his sleep, yet even this slight shift felt treacherous. The mattress creaked beneath me, a quiet betrayal. He deserved so much better, someone gentle, someone unblemished…anyone but the wreck I had become, especially not because of someone like Daniel. Th
