Midnight Phantom Chapter 12: A Debt Paid
[3rd POV—Damon]It wasn’t supposed to happen, though he doesn’t regret a thing either. All of his defenses crumbled into dust when Cara kissed him. She opened up herself to him like a bottle of irresistible whiskey, pouring liquid of fire into his tongue.All he could think was to make her feel better, and now she was curled in his arms, sleeping tightly and soundly. The soft snore coming from her mouth was like a melody he couldn’t get enough of, and the way her lashes fluttered, touching her cheeks told him whatever dream she was having, it wasn’t a nightmare. Which is a good thing after everything she’s been through. He feels terrible for deceiving her, for having Cara think that he and her phantom are two different people, but he has to hide his identity until she’s ready to embrace his dark side.Damon slid off his mask, having no need for it, and stared at Cara’s sleeping countenance. He traces his thumb over the fine bridge of her nose, down to her pouty lips before a static r
Midnight Phantom Chapter 13: Black Envelop
[Cara]Four packets of condom sachets littered my room, which I had been staring at for quite some time, along with the mask and shirt he had left. For a moment, I thought he just forgot about them, or he could deliberately leave them on purpose to remind me that last night was real.Damn, does he always carry a bunch of them every night?Four rounds. I can’t believe we used all that.Heat crawled up into my face at the thought of it. No wonder I’m a bit sore down there, and my knees had gotten a little weak. His scent lingered around my room and on my skin. I remember everything and the incident I encountered with Damon and Liam. Those two pricks, I hope they bang their heads on against each other and damage their brain permanently. I was expecting another bludgeoning headache to come considering how much I had drunk last night. Strangely, I felt perfectly fine.Maybe the little exertion that happened last night with my phantom helped ease the alcohol out of my system.Now my nigh
Midnight Phantom Chapter 14: The Address
[Cara]“Cara, the situation is getting direr. Mr. Torrel wished to meet with you to discuss his shares in the company. Some of our investors also tried to make an appointment regarding the same issue.”Nancy barged into my office while I was buried with other papers. Too much is happening right now for me to have a lackadaisical moment.“What the hell do they want?” I let out a groan, slammed the folder I was going through, and then shot a glare at my friend, who is, by the way, the head of the finance department.“Here, take a look at this.” She thrust a black envelope in front of me, and I stared at it full of suspicion as though, at any moment, a snake would jump out of it and bite me in the neck.The death threat I received last week wasn’t helping much with my imagination. It was stressing me out, and I know I shouldn’t take it lightly, knowing my dad had been assassinated right before me two weeks prior.Well, whatever this shit is. It’s not going to reveal itself just by starin
Midnight Phantom Chapter 15: Old Barn
[Cara]I must be crazy...A fool.A dumb bitch no brighter than a dimwit. Damn! I hate myself.Fear crippled my entire body as I crept my gaze into the eerie surroundings I was in. Yes, I know. I wasn’t in the right mind when I followed the address written on the black card sent by my new anonymous stalker.How could I ever explain these things? Certainly, it was the same person that gave me a fucking death threat. It wasn’t the most brilliant move, and I realized I wasn’t as bright as I claimed to be.My sender knew precisely how to tweak my curiosity and used something like this to lure me out of my dugout.I wasn’t thinking straight. I didn’t even manage to tell Nancy where I was going. I just fling my dad’s phone back into my security vault in great abandoned. It was only halfway when I finally realized this dumb-shit I was doing and that I wasn’t in the right mind to pull my car in reverse.“Well, Melanie. You better start praying harder for me.” I breathed deeply, darting on t
Midnight Phantom Chapter 16: Amiss
[3rd POV—Damon]Something’s not right.Damon immediately sensed it to his bone the moment he took a step inside Cara’s bedroom. The first thing he noticed was that all the lights hadn’t been turned on. He knew it shouldn’t be a huge concern since he came around just a little past her bedtime. Only that, right now, she wasn’t tucked in her bed like where she was supposed to be, considering he came around during late hours. Or that she would already be waiting for him to come around. The air around her room was undisturbed and cold and seemingly felt desolate with the absence of her presence. Her scent was a little faint, as though she had not come home since leaving for work this morning.Damon searches further inside the vicinity. Investigating what might have transpired if she hasn’t indeed come home tonight.Her living room was as barren as the bedroom of her presence. The dishes she used this morning were still intact inside the washer, and the glass she used before leaving remai
Midnight Phantom Chapter 17: Chained
[Cara]I’ve been drunk and gone through many terrible hangovers but fuck! This is the worst!My skull felt like it was about to split open and have someone impaling an iron nail at the back of my head.The worst case is that I was never drunk. I was drugged by some psychopathic maniac. I couldn’t remember much since I passed out immediately, but I woke up the next moment with my ankles and wrists cuffed and was linked on chains bolted to the wall. Also, my entire body hurts as if I was thrown into a cold hard tiled floor.The whiteness of it, enhanced by four fluorescent lamps embedded in the ceiling, was hurting my eyes badly. The spot on my neck where the bastard had injected me was still throbbing relentlessly, my vision still blurred and blinking rainbows. Like my own sockets were sucking my eyes deep into the back of my skull.What the fuck?!I tried to stand, but my balance was out all over the place, and my head weighed five times over. The echoing footsteps caught my atten
Midnight Phantom Chapter 18: Nightmares Do Come True
[Cara] I know this was all just a figment of my hellish nightmare. The one that would hunt me for a week for having it. But it was too real…too vivid.Could they be real?The pain, the electrifying agony coursing through my bones while my body writhed into an awkward bend. Blood was gushing over the cuts he had incised into my bruised skin. My eyes inflated, and I could barely see anything.I was naked.Shivering with cold and hanging on a chain bolted to the ceiling inside a white-washed room. With my knees no longer able to hold up my weight, I could feel the bones on my wrists twisting and dislocating from the joints.My hair hangs in my face in thin clusters, sleek with the mixture of blood, tears, and sweat.He had done it.My captor, he had forced his way into me in the most macabre way.I am all in pain, yet the stinging soreness centered into my vaginal wall, flesh torn and bleeding all the way down to pool around my feet.“Dreaming of me?”I was jolted awake by the sound of
Midnight Phantom Chapter 19: Sadist
****Trigger Warning! This chapter is not for the faint of hearts. Readers’ discretion is advisable, or better yet skip the entire chapter.**** [Cara] “Fuck you!” I hollered, kicking and trashing, spitting and trying to get impossibly away from him, even though I knew it was futile since I was all hanging from the chains and just standing on my toes.When his head leaned a little closer to me, and his ear perfectly angled right in front of my mouth. I didn’t think twice and clamped my teeth into his lobe. Refusing to let go until I draw some blood.“Shit! You fucking bitch!” He howled in pain, delivering a quick punch into my midriff, knocking my breath away and having me wheezing. I hadn’t even recovered when the back of his hand lashed and came into stinging contact with my face. The impact threw my head to the side while I struggled to breathe.“You’re going to pay for that. Just wait till I am done with you.” He growled threateningly, and all the fears I had been feeling escalated
