“If you do as you're told and I receive no complaints, I'll continue to feed you and you won't turn into a pack-less rogue, I'm sure you don't want that to happen to you. My name is Alexia, but you will address me as mistress."

Daemon hadn’t been joking. As soon as he left the conference room, a large man walked in and escorted me outside before bringing me here.

I merely nodded rapidly, words failing to come out of my open mouth. I wanted to leave here more than anything else, I would have been willing to sacrifice one of my kidneys for it but I knew that escape from this shit hole was highly unlikely, so my best and only option at this moment is to play the part of the meek maid and do whatever was asked of me without complaints.

The woman snapped her fingers and a man appeared, who has been the one bringing me the occasional scraps of food, hurried down the stairs and opened the door to my room. He tried to search me but I wouldn’t let him, I was fed up with being hara

  • Sinful Desires: Craving My StepBrother’s Touch   Chapter 47

    JulienneDespite Daemon’s warning or should I call it his talk of assurance? Whatever it was, I couldn’t bring myself to believe his words and no matter how hard I tried, it didn’t work. I wanted things to be done quickly without any breaks in between so I could have my life back and get as far away as possible from all of them. Everyday, I lost a part of myself and I didn’t know how long I had left before I lost it all completely. A couple of weeks ago, Daemon had assured me that he was going to find my mother and set things straight but he didn’t. It took a big stroke of luck from my end to find my mother and I didn’t have his resources at my disposal. It got me thinking if Daemon truly wanted her to be found or if he wanted to keep me here for good. He was a bad man and bad men weren’t to be trusted, my father taught me that. Whatever it was he had going on, I didn’t want to sit around and wait for him—I had to take things into my own hands and sort this out. I found my mother

    Julienne“There’s no need to be violent here and I’m not going to tolerate the two of you turning my personal space into a war zone, do I make myself clear?” Daemon snapped. “I’m sorry,” I said, apologizing. “But, I’m only looking out for myself, it’s a trait I learned from you.”“Tell me how you got that address, Julienne. Because for what it’s worth, I’m leaning towards Bene’s theory. Have you always known where she was? Was this some part of a bigger plan that you hatched with her? I have a ton of questions and I need you to provide me with answers when I’m satisfied. We can talk about the terms of your condition.” “Okay, what do you want to know?” I asked. I already knew what he was about to say but I feigned ignorance until I heard him say the words himself. Everything depended on my delivery and how well I executed the cards I had. Daemon on the other hand hated to be in the position I had him in, he once told me that himself. He always wanted to be the person with the cards

  • Sinful Desires: Craving My StepBrother’s Touch   Chapter 45

    JulienneThe cab stopped in front of the large metal gate and the money I had wasn’t enough to cover the total fare but the cab driver took pity on me. “Consider this my show of good faith. I know what it’s like to have your life being messed up and I hope you find a way to get your revenge.” The cab driver said as he gave me a salute. I gave him a grateful smile as I alighted from the cab and watched as he turned around and disappeared down the road. “You tricked me, miss.” I heard the guard’s voice as he spoke to me harshly, feeling betrayed. I turned around slowly to find him glaring at me. “I passed the instruction I was given, anything that happened in there had nothing to do with me,” I replied. “Give me one good reason why I should let you in here.” He said.“Because you don’t have a choice and that’s it. I can stay here all night but you need to think about what Mr. Daemon would do to you when he finds out that you kept me out here all night.”That was all I needed to sa

  • Sinful Desires: Craving My StepBrother’s Touch   Chapter 44

    JulienneI alighted the cab when we got to a densely populated area in New York. To be fair, nearly every place was densely populated in New York. Over eight million people were living in New York and it was by far the most populous state in the country. The city was noisy, a stark contrast to the quietness of Daemon’s house which had nearly made me mad. I slid my hands into the pockets of the hoodie as I walked along the streets, doing a little bit of window shopping and stopping by street performers to enjoy their music before moving on to the next interesting thing that caught my eye. Daemon hadn’t allowed me to use a phone so the only way I would be able to save this day was by committing it to memory and making sure it stays in my head. I didn’t know how long I walked through the streets of New York but I didn’t want to stop. This was the most fun I’ve had in a long time and I wanted to savor every moment of it before returning to the shell.The sky rumbled above and I looke

  • Sinful Desires: Craving My StepBrother’s Touch   Chapter 43

    JulienneIt’s been two weeks and four days since the incident at the club happened and ever since then, I’ve not had a proper conversation with Daemon except when it was necessary and I couldn't escape it. Our conversation consisted mainly of exchanging greetings and mumbling a few words during the few things we found ourselves at the dinner table or we came across each other in the hallway or the garden. Every time I saw him, I couldn’t help but reminisce about the man who said those hurtful words to me at the club. The words were ingrained in my head and for a moment, I’d allowed myself to be deluded with the fact that maybe, just maybe Daemon was going to treat me as a person and not an item that he owned but I was quickly brought back to reality as he made me understand that I had no value, to him, to anyone and the world at large. I spent the first week crying and cursing my luck and my mother for putting me in this situation. This wasn’t life, I had nothing to do except wait

  • Sinful Desires: Craving My StepBrother’s Touch   Chapter 42

    “We’ve got some good news, sir.” I didn’t turn my chair around as I stared at the dark skies. The city underneath was full of light and it was almost certain that the streets would be filled with people going about their daily activities but there was nothing down there that interested me anymore which was why my eyes were fixed on the dark sky as I brainstormed, trying to come out with multiple solutions for the numerous conundrums I had yet to solve. We’ve got some good news. This wasn’t the first time I was hearing those words this week and I was getting tired of hearing it without being given substantial context or adequate context to whatever they brought on my plate. I hated incompetence and laziness, they were mortal sins that I could never forgive, no matter what. I hadn’t told them yet but they were running out of time to deliver actual good news to me. I was getting antsy and my uncle was getting impatient. If they weren’t going to be able to sort this out, I’d make sur
