Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 74— Rooftop
Aldric stood on the dimly lit rooftop bar, the city glittering below like scattered diamonds. The air was cool, carrying the faint scent of rain and expensive whiskey. Elias was already there, leaning against the railing with effortless grace, a half-empty glass in hand. His dark hair fell over one eye in that artfully messy way, sharp jawline catching the low light. He looked like a painting come to life, beautiful, dangerous, and far too calm. Aldric approached without hesitation, stopping a few feet away. His own face was carved from ice: strong, angular features, piercing eyes that missed nothing, the kind of controlled power that made people step aside without being told. Where Elias had that mysterious, almost poetic allure, the brooding artist who could pull secrets from the air, Aldric was pure predator in a tailored coat. Sharper edges. Colder fire. Elias turned, and his lips curved into a smile. “Aldric,” he said, voice smooth and low, like velvet over steel. “I didn't
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 73— Introducing Elias
I stepped through the apartment door. Aldric was in the kitchen pouring three glasses of wine, while Seraphiel lounged on the couch, one leg thrown over the armrest. The moment I walked in, both of them looked up. Seraphiel’s face split into a lazy grin. Aldric’s gaze was sharper, scanning me from head to toe like he was checking for invisible damage. “You’re back,” Aldric said, voice calm but carrying that undercurrent of relief he always tried to hide. “How was it?” I kicked off my shoes and dropped the bags by the door, already smiling. The walk around campus had been… surprisingly okay. Not perfect, but okay. “It was weird. But good-weird. People actually talked to me. Some apologized. Others just said they were glad the truth came out. I even got a free coffee with ‘You got this’ written on the cup.” Seraphiel sat up straighter, eyes bright. “Any assholes?” “A couple of fake ones from debate. I avoided them. But most people were… decent.” I walked over and flopped bet
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds Chapter 72— Unexpected collision
The car hummed along the highway, city skyline growing sharper in the windshield as we headed back toward the apartment. Seraphiel drove with one hand on the wheel, the other resting on my thigh like he needed the constant reminder I was really here. The shopping bags rustled in the back seat, soft sweaters, lace, that vanilla-scented oil, little pieces of normal I’d let myself enjoy for a few hours. My phone had been quiet most of the drive. Then it wasn’t. It started with a call from my mother. I stared at the screen, her name flashing like a warning. I almost let it ring out, but Seraphiel glanced over and gave me a small nod. “You don’t have to answer. But if you do, I’m right here.” I swiped accept and put it on speaker. Her voice poured out, bright and breathless like we’d just spoken yesterday instead of weeks of radio silence while the accusations tore me apart. “Zero! Baby, we saw the news. Oh my God, that poor girl… but you’re cleared now, right? Everyone’s saying
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds Chapter 71— The Breaking Point
I was still in the oversized white sweater from yesterday’s shopping trip, the soft fabric now rumpled from sleep and Seraphiel’s hands. We’d spent the morning in a lazy haze, him feeding me bites of takeout while I showed him the new lace bralette, both of us pretending the world outside the Airbnb didn’t exist. My phone had stayed mostly silent after the overnight explosion of posts flipping the narrative on Lila. Relief still hummed under my skin like static. Then Seraphiel’s phone buzzed on the nightstand. He glanced at it, frowned, and handed it to me without a word. It was a news alert from a campus gossip account. “Lila Adeyemi, 21, Found Dead in Apparent Suicide. Police Confirm No Foul Play.” My stomach dropped. The article was short, clinical. She had been found early that morning in her temporary off-campus housing. Hanging. A note left behind. No details on the note yet, but the timing, right after her tearful live apology, right after the receipts dropped and the
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 70– Velvet and Venom
I woke up tangled in Seraphiel’s arms, sheets twisted around our legs like they were trying to keep us there forever. Sunlight filtered through the thin curtains, painting gold stripes across his bare chest. For the first time in weeks, my chest didn’t feel like it was full of broken glass. The internet had turned on Lila overnight, her live apology, the leaked receipts, the flood of comments calling her out. It wasn’t over, not by a long shot, but it was… breathing room. Seraphiel’s fingers traced lazy circles on my hip, and I let myself lean into the touch.“You’re smiling,” he murmured, voice still gravelly from sleep. “I like that look on you.”I turned in his arms, burying my face in his neck. “Feels weird. Good-weird. Like I can walk outside without wanting to disappear.”He kissed the top of my head, then pulled back just enough to grin that wicked, lopsided grin that always made my stomach flip. “Then let’s make it official. Shopping. You, me, cute shit. No drama. No Aldric ho
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 69— Relief
I sat cross-legged on the cheap bed, the thin mattress dipping under my weight, phone propped against a stack of pillows so the camera could catch me properly. My hands were still shaking from everything that had blown up online in the last few hours. The live from Lila. The flood of comments turning against her. The sudden, dizzying shift where the same internet that had wanted to burn me alive was now calling for her head. Relief hit me like a wave, messy, overwhelming, leaving me raw and teetering on the edge of tears. My hair was a disaster, dark strands sticking up in every direction from running my fingers through it too many times. My eyes felt puffy, but when I looked at myself in the front-facing camera, they were shining. Not with the dull, hollow look I’d worn for weeks, but with something brighter, tears of relief mixed with exhaustion, gratitude, and that fragile spark of hope I’d been too scared to let myself feel. I hit record. “Hey,” I said, voice soft and a little
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds Chapter 13: Soft Poison
The world tilted sideways after the spar. That punch to my face knocked out my brains for a huge second.I knew something was wrong the moment my legs stopped listening to me. The training ring blurred at the edges, the sounds of snarls and shouts dulling into a a string of hum, it almost felt as t

I woke to warmth. For a few slow seconds, I thought I was dreaming. My body felt heavy, cocooned, held in a way that made my breathing even out before I realized why. The scent hit me next. Dark. Familiar. Steel and night and something unmistakably alive. It was Aldric. I stiffened. I was p

Going back to the hostel felt longer than it should have.The corridors were quiet, lights dimming low, my mind in a state of unrest, every step echoing too loudly, every shadow felt heavier than it had any right to be. By the time I reached my room, exhaustion had clung to me like a second skin, y

The beds had been shoved together sometime in the small hours, three mattresses fused into one sprawling island of wreckage. Sheets twisted like battle flags, pillows scattered, the air still thick with the musk of sweat and cum. All three of us were naked. Clad in our birthday suits. I woke firs
