The dining table felt too polished.
Too clean. Too perfect. Too alive in a way that made my skin crawl.
Crystal glasses. Soft golden lighting. The faint scent of roasted chicken, herb butter, and something sweet I couldn’t bother to identify filled the room. Plates lined up like we were performing for an audience that didn’t exist.
Catherine’s parents laughed again—her father

THE DEVIL'S BOY TOY The kind of love that drowns
Ryker’s POVThe night air clung to me as I left Vanessa behind.Her words still echoed in my head, looping like a scratched record I couldn’t fix no matter how many times I replayed it.You keep choosing someone who doesn’t keep choosing you back.I shoved my hands into my pockets and kept walking.The campus felt too quiet for a place that used to feel alive. Maybe it was because most students had already left for break, or maybe it was because I was just noticing silence differently now.Vanessa should’ve come with me.I hated that she didn&
THE DEVIL'S BOY TOY Embarrass the family name
Leo’s POVThe house was empty there was no sound of Catherine moving around. No footsteps following mine. No quiet reminders that she was there.I couldn’t even remember where she said she was going.And honestly?I was glad.For the last month, Catherine had practically become attached to me.Everywhere I went, she was there.Every meeting, every event, every place I had to be, she somehow found a reason to come along.It was suffocating.I knew she was trying to fix things between us, but the harder she tried, the more I felt myself pulling away.Especially because every time I looked at her, I thought about Ryker.I hadn’t seen him.I hadn’t texted him.I hadn’t called him.Because I didn’t know how I was supposed to see his face and then come back here and lie beside Catherine like everything was normal.Like I wasn’t thinking about someone else.Like my heart wasn’t somewhere else.The worst part was that Catherine had become more physical too.At night, she would try to touch me
THE DEVIL'S BOY TOY Finally a moving piece.
Catherine’s POVI lay comfortably on the bed, staring at the ceiling.My body ached in places I didn’t even know could ache. My back hurt, my head was pounding, and I felt like I hadn’t had a proper night’s sleep in weeks.I shifted slightly.Then I froze.I needed to use the bathroom.With a small sigh, I pushed myself up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom.The apartment was dark. Leo was still asleep, his back turned towards me.I looked at him for a second.Even now, after everything, he still looked peaceful.It almost made me angry.How could someone look so calm and yet be so stubborn? I turned away and entered the bathroom.My eyes landed on the small bag sitting beside the counter.My heart tightened.I had lost count of how many pregnancy tests I had secretly taken every week.Sometimes more than once.For four weeks, I had watched that tiny little stick like it held the answer to my entire future.And every time, nothing.Nothing.I had started wondering if maybe
THE DEVIL'S BOY TOY Never chooses you
Ryker’s POVYou would think that after one month, everything would have started to fix itself.That the misunderstandings would clear up. That the tension would finally fade away. That the silence would stop feeling like a heavy weight pressing against my chest every single day.But it didn’t.If anything, everything felt even more confusing.Milestone was almost completely empty now. Most of the students had gone home after finals, leaving behind quiet hallways and classrooms that used to be filled with noise and endless conversations.Even my roommates were gone.Chris had gone back home. Oliver had left a few days after exams ended. Ronaldo had also left, although he made me promise to call him every day.I hadn’t seen Leo since our conversation.Not once.Not a message. Not a call.Nothing.I tried not to think about it too much.I tried to convince myself that he was busy, that maybe things with Catherine were complicated, that maybe he was trying to figure things out.But every
THE DEVIL'S BOY TOY From the beginning
Catherine's POVI should have followed my first instinct.I should have mentioned Padrino from the very beginning.The moment Leo started acting like he suddenly had a choice, like he could just throw away months of plans and expectations because of some stupid obsession, I should have reminded him exactly who he was dealing with.But maybe it was better this way.Because now, the fear in his eyes was real.Leo could be stubborn. He could be arrogant. He could be impossible.But he wasn't stupid.He knew what happened when someone crossed Padrino.The last time Leo tried to challenge him by refusing to give that speech, he disappeared for weeks.And when he finally came back, he had an injury and a story about some accident.I remember how worried I was when I couldn't reach him and how I asked so many questions. Questions that I never got answers to, and I stopped pestering not because I didn't care.But because I eventually understood the rules.There were things people like us were
THE DEVIL'S BOY TOY The sadness of the heart
Ryker's POVI woke up to my phone buzzing from incoming messages. The day was bright and mild sun filtered in from the windows.For a few seconds, I just stared at the ceiling, not really aware of where I was. My body felt heavy, but my mind felt strangely lighter.Then my phone vibrated again.I reached for it lazily and unlocked the screen.Several messages from a group chat, I rolled my eyes about to shut my phone off and get some more sleep when I saw it.One message.From Leo.My heart immediately started beating faster. Leo: Meet me in front of your dorm tonight. It’s really important.I read the message again.And again.A strange mixture of emotions settled inside my chest.Excitement.Fear.Confusion.Because what if this was it?What if the letter yesterday had been his final gift to me?What if this meeting was where he was going to finally tell me that we were done?I swallowed.The thought hurt more than I wanted to admit.But at the same time, I couldn’t ignore the s

Leo's povI sat alone in the condo with a drink in my hand and silence pressing heavily against my skin.The bourbon burned slowly down my throat, warm and sharp, but not nearly strong enough to drown out the chaos in my head.&
