The addiction

Elara

I chose the Midnight Library more than my work life. My real life was disappearing fast. 

I was showing up to work exhausted, dark circles under my eyes, making up weak excuses about family emergencies and insomnia. 

Few people had texted me asking where I had been all day long. 

I ignored most of them. All I could think about was Lucian. 

I need to let go of  this addiction, if not, cause I’m cooked! 

My mindset kept replaying his hands, his voice, the way he made me feel completely alive for each night.

It's Saturday , after another week, a hazy day, I slipped into the hidden section even earlier than usual.

 Lucian was waiting, but before he could pull me close, I heard footsteps behind me in the main library. My stomach flipped.

It was Sophie.

She’s one of the younger part time librarians.

She has been helping me cover my shifts. 

Well, With her help, I was able to escape troubles.

But why is  she here at this hour??

“What’s going on Elara?…Who’s she?” Lucian asked. But I ordered him to be calm for a moment.

“Elara? Why are you still here? I saw the lights…on”

She asked in shock, but as soon as she stepped into the glowing section. She froze.

She widened her eyes as she took in the shimmering books and the tall, impossibly handsome man standing beside me.

“Oh my goodness!…who is that?” Sophie whispered, staring at Lucian.

Lucian’s midnight-blue eyes flashed with shock. “Elara, what have you done? No one else should be able to see this place.”

I was trembling. I’m famished. 

I must make sure Sophie doesn’t mention this to anyone.

“Hi Sophie, please don’t run or scream. I can explain please.” 

I thought she would scream, run or maybe try to judge me, but instead, she stepped closer, her cheeks were red.

 “He’s… not real, right? But I can see him. I’ve heard you sometimes… scream late at night. Moaning, gasping. I thought you were watching something sexual and masturbating, but this… please Can I… touch him?”

Lucian looked at me, he got  furious and aroused. “You brought her here? Into my world, without my consent??”

“She won’t tell anyone Lucian ,” I said quickly, my voice damn shaking. Lucian’s angry face was scary.

“Sophie let me explain everything…he’s real here okay?. These  books you see are fantasies that make things  happen. Whatever sex you read from this erotic series, you would feel it. You want to feel it too?”

Sophie nodded eagerly, already breathing faster. “Yes. God, yes I do.”

Lucian looked at me. His eyes were still furious, he must think i’m stupid. 

Unfortunately, this was the only way out. Trapping another soul would protect me from being caught.

I picked up the most forbidden book.

 “Shadows of Three” : a story about one powerful man claiming two willing women. As soon as I started reading aloud, the magic surged.

Lucian’s melted into dark hunger. “Then let’s give her what she wants.”

He moved on Sophie first and kissed her deeply while he touched mirrored on my body.

 I was insanely turned on, as he pushed her against the bookshelves, lifted her skirt, and dropped to his knees. 

Sophie’s moans filled the aisle immediately.

“Ahh… fuck, that feels so good!” she gasped as his tongue slipped up her thighs to her pussy.

I kept reading, but my own body responded with invisible caresses stroking my nipple dots and teasing my clit. Then Lucian stood, freed his thick cock, and bent Sophie over a low table. He thrust into her in one smooth motion.

“Oh my god… ahhhhh!” Sophie cried out loudly. The wet slapping sounds of him fucking her hard mixed with her desperate moans. “Yes! Harder!”

I watched them, dripping wet. I  touched  myself as Lucian pounded into her, dirty talk spilling from his lips. “Take it all, just like that. Both of you belong to me tonight.”

He commanded me to join them, and the real intensity began. Lucian took turns with us against the shelves  spanking my ass until it stung beautifully while he fucked Sophie from behind, then switching to bury himself deep inside me while he commanded Sophie to kissed me and sucked on my nipples.

“Mmm… oh yess!  Lucian, fuck me harder!” I moaned, pushing back against him. The sound of our skin slapping wetly. 

our mixed moans, and the creak of old wood created the filthiest symphony I’d ever heard.

Next, he took us together, I rode his cock while Sophie straddled his face.

“Ahhhh…I’m coming!” I cried out as I clenched around him. 

The chock chummed loudly. The midnight hour was almost over. Lucian held us both. But his eyes were serious when he looked at me. 

“This is dangerous, Elara. Bringing someone else… The library doesn’t like sharing its secrets. If you keep staying past the final bell, it will claim your soul permanently. Both of you need to leave now.”

Sophie slipped out in a daze, promising to cover for me again. But the experience had only made me more addicted.

The library air filled with sweat. 

Sophie quickly dressed up and left before me.

Lucian and I lay together. 

“What if I don’t want to leave anymore?”

He stroked my hair. “I wish you could stay. But the price is too high Elara”

 But before I left, I found a thin, glowing book tucked away on a high shelf named “Futures Unwritten.”

 It showed two visions. 

In one vision, I stayed forever, lost in endless nights of pleasure with Lucian why my real life was fading away. In the other vision, I walked away and returned to loneliness, the magic slowly dying inside me.

As I finally slipped out just before 1 am, the grandfather clock in the main hall seemed louder than usual. 

I thought about stealing one of the books, taking it home so nothing could stop me from calling Lucian whenever I wanted. 

No more risks of getting caught.

deep down, I knew the library wouldn’t let its guardian go so easily.

I was in too deep. And I wasn’t sure I wanted to be saved anymore.

This means I could stay trapped if I’m willing.
