I flung the leather jacket on a chair and walked into the bathroom. It's been so long I used the damn jacket and wearing it kept bringing up memories from that day. The bathroom window faced the street, and through the frosted glass, I caught a glimpse of someone walking below. Something about the way he moved made my stomach drop. That confident stride, shoulders back, like he owned the whole damn world. It was him. What was he doing here? And on my street?

I spat out the toothpaste and wiped my mouth with the back of my hand. My heart was already racing as I pressed my face closer to the window. The figure was moving away, heading toward the darker part of the city. Even from here I could make out his black hair tied to the back, the way his black button-up shirt stretched across his broad shoulders.

I squeezed my eyes shut and pushed back to idea of leaving this. I grabbed my gun from the nightstand and shoved it into the back of my jeans. My leather jacket was on the chair I left

  • The Darkest Obsession    Chapter 102

    A dry laugh left my lips as I ignored him and gave the food an effort, poking at whatever was on the plate in front of me. The pasta looked good, smelled good even, but my appetite was nowhere to be found. I stabbed a piece with my fork and brought it to my mouth anyway, forcing myself to chew and swallow even though it tasted really good but at the same time brought no satisfaction to my being.Elias started talking, probably because of the sulking face I was sending him. Why he gave in, I had no idea. But I told myself to think it was because of that scowl. He rambled about nothing important at first, filling the silence with observations about the base and complaints about Duke being dramatic."It was so weird seeing him again," He'd said, flipping a page of the book he had in front of him."Duke? Yeah, no shit." I said with a mouthful of food. Elias glanced at me from the top of his book and lifted both of his eyebrows up. "Swallow before talking."Glaring at him from the space I

    The name fell from my lips in shock and confusion, my brain struggling to make sense of what my eyes were seeing. Duke stood in the doorway with his pale curly hair falling across his forehead, his grey eyes sharp behind those square shaped glasses he always wore. He cocked his head at me, assessing me with those grey eyes and then nodded at Cassien, a brief acknowledgment that earned a low grunt in response. I did the same thing, assessed him right back, not quite believing what I was seeing or hearing. Duke. Here. In the Black Rose base like he belonged here, like this...was normal."I have so many questions," I said slowly, each word careful and measured.Both corners of his lips turned up in a smug smile. "Sure you do."Cassien's hand fell on my lower back, grounding me as Duke and I stared at each other. Past memories taunted between us, flashes of the academy, of late nights in the library where he'd worked, of training sessions where he'd always been just a little too observan

    I didn't need Cassien to finish that sentence as I felt a swell of emotion crashed through me. Although I'd always had Kyl—My thoughts started to drift there but I forced it away, and shoved it down deep where I didn't have to look at it. I focused instead on the vulnerable sight of Cassien above me, on the pain etched into his features and the fear I could see swimming in those cobalt blue eyes. I realized in that moment, that I'd been true to myself when I followed him, when I chose this path even though it was a strike at my entire career, at everything I'd worked for. I didn't care.Fuck, the only reason I wore that stupid police badge in the first place was because I wanted information about my parents' death.As I held Cassien's cheek in my hand, feeling the warmth of his skin and the slight tremor that ran through him, I realized maybe this was where I was meant to be all along. I rubbed my thumb gently across his forehead and away the crease between his brows."I'm okay," I t

    My chest rose and fell in rapid breaths as I stared up at him, taking in the way his cobalt blue eyes had darkened to something deeper, something that made my stomach clench with anticipation. The weight of him pressed me down into the mat was solid and warm and impossibly real. I could feel every inch of where our bodies touched. The hard rigid length of him pressed against my center, separated only by thin layers of fabric that suddenly felt like too much and not enough all at once. Heat pooled between my thighs, a reminder of exactly what kind of interesting he could make things."What?" I breathed, the word coming out shaky and wanting.Cassien curved his hand around my cheek, his fingers digging into the tendrils of my hair at my temple, gripping the strands in a way that sent tingles across my scalp. I scowled at him, trying to summon some kind of irritation through the haze of desire clouding my thoughts."My hair is going to be a complete mess after this," I complained, but my

    The kiss wasn't gentle or tentative, it was hungry and demanding. His mouth opened under mine immediately and I tasted him, familiar and intoxicating, as our tongues met and tangled together. Heat flooded through my body, pooling low in my stomach and spreading outward until my skin felt like it was on fire. I released his wrists and slid my hands into his hair, tugging the band free completely so the silky strands spilled through my fingers. He groaned into my mouth, the sound vibrating through both of us, and his hands came up to grip my waist, fingers digging into my hips hard enough that I knew there would be marks later.I shifted my hips, grinding down against him, and felt him hard beneath me, the pressure of him right where I needed it most making my breath hitch. He made a low sound in his throat, somewhere between a growl and a moan, and his grip on my waist tightened as he pulled me down harder against him. I did it again, rolling my hips in a slow deliberate motion that ha

    Cassien led me through corridors that seemed to stretch on forever, his hand warm and solid in mine as we navigated the maze of the Black Rose base. The walls were concrete, painted a dark grey that made everything feel cold and industrial, with overhead lights casting harsh shadows that cut across the floor in sharp lines. We passed doors that were closed, some with small windows that showed nothing but darkness beyond, and I wondered what happened behind them.We rounded a corner and a man walked past us, tall and broad shouldered with dark hair cropped close to his skull. I caught the peek of black ink behind his ear as he passed, that small precise tattoo I'd seen on all the black rose members that had been brought into the station. A black rose. He nodded at Cassien with quiet respect, his eyes flicking to me briefly with curiosity before he kept walking. A woman appeared from another hallway moments later, lean and dangerous looking in tactical gear, and she acknowledged Cassien
