Petal’s POV

Sebastian moved from kneeling on the floor to the sofa across from me. The room was wrapped in silence thick enough to choke on. Only the faint humming of the city beyond the glass walls echoed in the distance.

I pushed myself up from where I’d landed moments ago, the bruising on my pride deeper than anywhere else. He hadn’t said a word since placing me here. And now, he just sat—like a king on a throne—watching me with unsettling intensity.

Then he spoke.

“Get on my lap. Now. On your stomach.”

I blinked.

For a moment, I thought I misheard. There was no way he just said that. My mind scrambled for reason.

“Sorry?” I asked, hoping for clarification. Hoping I was wrong.

His voice came sharper, louder. “I said get on my lap. Now!”

I flinched at the force behind his tone. My breath hitched. My heart was pounding—not from fear, exactly—but from the sheer nerve of him. My ears were ringing. Rage started building from the pit of my stomach, climbing up like wildfire in my throat.

  • Sebastian's Obsession   81

    Petal's povHe broke the hug slowly, his hands still resting firmly on my waist, fingers spread as if claiming possession. He stared at me — not speaking, just watching, like he was trying to read every emotion on my face. There was something obsessive in the way he looked at me. Like he owned me. Like I was his only sanity.And I hated how my heart — my stupid, naive heart — still ached for him. Still wanted to believe he meant his apology.But some part of me knew: this wasn’t love.It was possession.And I was the prize he refused to let go of — even if it meant breaking me to keep me.His eyes bored into mine, unblinking, unreadable, but filled with something I couldn’t quite define—something dark, obsessed. We stood there for a moment, surrounded by silence so thick it could suffocate."Let go of me," I finally whispered, trying to shake off the discomfort crawling up my spine. "You said you wanted to talk with me..." I reminded him, hoping to divert the intensity of the moment.

  • Sebastian's Obsession   80

    Petal’s POVMy hands were trembling as I stood frozen at the edge of the hallway, staring at my mother who had just uttered the most terrifying sentence of the day.“Sebastian wants to talk with you in private. Take him to your room.”My breath caught. My room? Private? Just the two of us?Panic surged through me like a crashing wave. A storm of thoughts erupted in my mind, each one darker than the last.Why does he want to talk in private? What does he want now? Will he try to manipulate me again? Force me to talk to Dad? I don’t want to... please not again... Will he blackmail me?I was drowning in fear and doubt. Every scenario played in my head like a horror film on loop. My heart pounded in my chest like a war drum.“LET’S GO, PETAL.”His deep, commanding voice sliced through my thoughts like a blade. I flinched. The sound of his voice felt too close, too powerful — it wrapped around me, suffocating me. A shiver ran down my spine, and I instinctively hugged my arms to my body.He

  • Sebastian's Obsession   79

    Author's pov“Either you agree to wait three months or you forget about the marriage altogether,” Max said coldly. “Even if it hurts my daughter, I don’t care. My decision is final.” His voice echoed in the quiet room, each syllable landing like a hammer on stone.Silence stretched between them like a drawn bow, taut and ready to snap.Petal’s heart thumped painfully inside her chest. It felt like a bird trapped in a cage, fluttering helplessly. Her lips parted slightly, but no words came out. She couldn’t speak. She didn’t dare. Every word felt like a gamble, and she was terrified of losing everything—Sebastian, her family’s already fragile approval, and the delicate balance she was struggling to maintain.Sebastian stood tall, but the rigidity of his shoulders revealed his inner turmoil. He clenched his jaw tightly, his fists curled by his side. The fury in his chest burned hot, scorching every inch of patience he had. He hated being controlled, hated being told what to do. He was a

    author's pov“Did he threaten you? Is Sebastian blackmailing you to say all these?” Max’s voice sliced through the silence like a knife. His eyes were pinned on his daughter, Petal, searching for any flicker of fear, any hesitation, any sign that she wasn’t speaking her truth.Petal froze. The weight of her father’s question settled heavily on her chest. She had braced herself for this moment, knowing that facing her father wouldn’t be easy. But hearing the pain, the suspicion, and the protectiveness in his voice shattered something inside her. Max had always been able to read her like an open book. She was his little girl, the apple of his eye, the daughter he had protected from every scratch and every sorrow.But now… now she was hiding something from him. Something big.She blinked rapidly, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to spill. She couldn’t tell him the truth. She couldn’t say that Sebastian had backed her into a corner. That his love—obsessive and overwhelming—wa

    Author's POV“PETAL, DOWNSTAIRS NOW!”The words struck her like a jolt. Her breath caught in her throat. Her body remained frozen for a moment. But then, as though on autopilot, she stood up, her knees trembling beneath her weight. She slowly walked toward the door, each step heavier than the last. Her fingers wrapped around the doorknob, cold and stiff. She turned it, and the door creaked open.The hallway stretched long and quiet. Her footsteps echoed softly against the tiles as she descended the stairs, her heart a mess of fear, resentment, and confusion. Her father’s voice still lingered in the air, and her mother's silence haunted her more than any words could.The room was too quiet—too still for a house that once echoed with Petal’s giggles. Penelope sat beside Max on the couch, her fingers gripping the edge of her dressi while her eyes anxiously stared at the staircase. Sebastian stood near the window, arms crossed, his jaw clenched tighter with each passing second. The wait w

  • Sebastian's Obsession   76

    author's povThe living room was filled with a heavy silence, the kind that settles when truth threatens comfort. The clock on the wall ticked steadily, an unwelcome reminder of the moments slipping away, each one more tense than the last.Max sat on the sofa beside Penelope, his posture upright but not aggressive. A mug of untouched coffee sat in his hands, its steam long gone cold. Beside him, Penelope cupped her own mug tightly, as though holding onto it kept her grounded.Sebastian sat across from them, his expression calm, composed, but undeniably tense. His fingers were laced together, resting on his knee, but his knuckles were slightly white from the pressure. He wasn’t just facing two concerned parents — he was facing the people who had treated him like their own, like family. This wasn’t just about love anymore — it was about trust, values, and lifelong bonds."You two have a decade age gap, you know that, right?" Max asked quietly, though his voice held a firm edge.Sebastia
