The Ghost Of One Night

ELIAN

I looked like I was attacked by a rabid animal, the litter of hickeys and bruises on my skin looking red and angry.

By the time I had woken up this morning, the stranger was gone, disappeared into thin air like he never existed in the first place.

I let out a sigh that sounded more disappointed than relieved. Maybe it was because it was my first time with a man or because I had never felt so grounded before in my life.

It didn’t help that the man hadn’t bother to drop a message or anything to acknowledge our time together.

Maybe I was just too old to know how hookups happen normally. My alarm rang out then, pulling me out of the rabbit hole of overthinking.

I pulled myself together, willing the memory of last night to the back of my mind.

Time to return back to my normal routine.

---

Three months later…

I crack my neck, looking at my schedule for the day. My last patient had been…emotional.

I had to sit and witness a woman bawl out her eyes after she divorced her terminally ill husband for another man, few days after her ex-husband died.

I felt uncomfortable as I watched her cry for the entirety of her session, wondering why she had come in the first place.

It didn’t help that I had that familiar itch underneath my skin once again. Images of that one night came flashing through my head.

I shook it away but my cock was already stiff in my pants. With a sigh, I stood up from where I sat, walking into the bathroom in my office.

I couldn’t meet with my next patient like this. With trembling hands, I pull out my cock once I got to the bathroom.

I pump my length, my teeth biting into my lips as I imagined rough hands gripping at my waist.

I groan out my release as I painted my hand white with cum. The ghost of the stranger had been haunting me ever since that day making me unable to move close to anyone else.

I freshened up, walking back to my seat when a knock on my door drew my attention. A frown marred my face; I wasn’t meant to have another appointment until…

I had somehow forgotten the patient the Director had spoken to me about that had issues with OCD.

Just then the door to my office was pushed open. The man who entered looked so tall and huge, I swallowed subtly as I gestured for him to have his seat as I did the same.

Something about the way he looked at me set me on edge. “I guess you already have my file,”

I picked up his file with a tremble that I tried to hid. His voice had me feeling shaky for some reason, making me frustrated and anxious.

His name is Aiden Knight, 27 years old, suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder.

“I have been battling with obsession lately” He added, spreading against the sofa.

“What kind of obsession?” I asked calmly, my tone a far cry from how I feel inwardly as he leveled his blue-green eyes at me.

“I can’t stop myself from stalking someone”

“Watching everything about him. Wanting to know all his secrets” My breath seemed to have frozen in my lungs at the intensity of his voice as he described his problem.

“And who is this person?” I asked, clearing my throat as I adjusted my glasses.

Aiden tilted his head slightly to the side, his eyes lighting up with a frightening intensity before he replied me.

“You”

I froze at what he said, hoping I had heard wrong.

“What?” I asked, my voice faint with disbelief at his answer.

“I saw you once at a café, you ordered an Americano. Two packets of sugar. From that day on, I started following you. I know you wake up at 6:30 every morning. You like whole-grain toast with fried eggs. I know your ex-girlfriend’s name is Leah. You broke up three months ago because she cheated.”

My hands trembled at the calm way with which he spoke, my brain whirling with panic and fear.

“You need treatment…”

“I know” He interrupted before I could complete my statement, a smile splitting his lips.

“That’s why I am here. So, Doctor…how are you going to treat me?”

I pressed the emergency number on my phone with trembling fingers, my heart beat pounding with each ring.

“Hello, this is 911. How can we help you?”

---

“What were you thinking?!” Dr. George, the lead Psychologist, hissed at me as the police officers walked out of my office, throwing me worried looks.

I swallowed, my hands trembling badly. “I am sorry” I let out weakly, his response getting lost as everything sounded under water.

He walked away with angry steps, leaving me a mess at the entrance to my office. I walked back in, closing the door only to find out Aiden was still there.

“You should have known better than to call the police” He lets out calmly, as if he were talking about the weather.

I know I should respond to him but I couldn’t, my mind peaceful blank until my lips were coaxed into a rough kiss.

I gasped into the kiss, my breath coming out choppily as he broke the kiss.

“Hmm, interesting” Aiden mumbled out, his eyes fixed on my lips before he took a step backward.

“Y-you shouldn’t have done that, it goes against…”

“Here is what would happen, pretty boy. You would come with me, I need to see what you look like when I decorate your body with my cum”

I jolt back at his crude statement, hating the way my cock twitched at it.

“I am not going anywhere with you, please leave my office” I said calmly, stepping away from the door.

“Oh, you are. Unless you want everyone to find out you like taking cock like a bitch in heat” He whispered into my ear, his tongue licking at the lobe.

“What do you mean by that?” I asked, fear evident in my tone.

“I know about that night at the Hilltop hotel and I have a video of you, pretty boy”

  • The Devil In Therapy   Found Me First

    EILANAiden didn’t pick up the call.. Again.I had called more than I could count and he hadnt picked up even one of the calls and dear heavens I found this all so strange.Stranger than I wanted to admit, if I was being honest with my self.. which I was.I stared at my phone until the call finally disconnected, the screen fading to black in my hand.For a few seconds, I stood in the elevator confused for a while then I exhaled sharply. “Unbelievable.”I pressed his name again the call rang again and my jaw tightened. “Pick up the damn phone, Aiden.”I ended the call harder than necessary and stepped out of the elevator, the moment I got to my car and sat inside, I tossed my phone onto the passenger seat.It bounced once before settling against the leather and I stared at it then I picked it up and called him again.Voicemail… How dare he.Something hot and frustrated curled in my chest.Aiden knew I was worried.He knew I had been injured two nights ago.He knew I could barely walk p

  • The Devil In Therapy   Where Are You?

    EILANI tried my best to act normal but Mrs. Delgado’s words refused to leave me.‘He wasn’t alone.. The SUV had stayed.’The moment I stepped back into my apartment, I quickly locked the door behind me and rested my forehead against the wood.My breathing came out unevenly as though I had just finished a marathon race and my brain.. Trust me when I say my brain was overheating with different thoughts.Aiden hadn’t simply gone for a drive.. Someone had met him.. Someone had been waiting outside before dawn.Someone who hadn’t left immediately after Aiden did.I pushed myself away from the door and walked straight to the living room window.Carefully, I eased one corner of the curtain aside.The street below looked painfully ordinary.A jogger passed by with headphones tucked beneath a baseball cap. A young mother struggled to convince her toddler to hold her hand instead of chasing pigeons. Across the street, the owner of the corner bakery flipped the sign from Closed to Open.Norma

  • The Devil In Therapy   Before Dawn

    EILANMy thumb hovered over the unfamiliar contact for several seconds.Emile Knight.I had never imagined I would voluntarily call him.The man intimidated me almost as much as Aiden did when we’d first met. Everything about him was measured, calculated, impossible to read.Still…If anyone knew where Aiden had gone, it would be his brother.The phone rang twice before someone answered.“Mr. Moore.”Not Elian.Not even a greeting.Just my surname.It sounded strangely formal coming from him.“Mr. Knight.”Silence settled between us.“I apologize for disturbing you this early.”“You wouldn’t have called without a reason.”His voice remained even, betraying nothing.I swallowed.“I… was wondering if you’ve heard from Aiden.”Another pause.Long enough for my heartbeat to become painfully loud in my ears.“No.”The answer came cleanly.Too cleanly.I frowned.“He’s gone.”“I know.”The words slipped out before he corrected himself.“I mean… you said he wasn’t there.”I tightened my grip

  • The Devil In Therapy   Shopping For Us

    EILAN I woke to cold sheets.Not the familiar coolness from the air conditioner humming softly in the corner of the apartment. This was different. It was the kind of cold that only came from an empty space beside me, one that had been vacant long enough for the warmth to disappear completely.For a few blissfully ignorant seconds, I let myself believe there was a perfectly reasonable explanation.Aiden was probably in the kitchen.He was likely attempting breakfast again despite proving, on multiple occasions, that cooking was a talent he simply did not possess. I could almost picture him glaring at a frying pan while smoke curled toward the ceiling, setting off the alarm before he started laughing at himself. He would insist the eggs were edible, I would tell him they looked like charcoal, and somehow he would still convince me to eat the least burnt piece of toast.The image was so vivid that the corners of my mouth almost lifted.Then I listened.Nothing.No footsteps crossed the

  • The Devil In Therapy   A Monster

    AIDENSleep refused to come.I lay on my back, staring at the ceiling while darkness swallowed every corner of Elian’s apartment. Beside me, his breathing remained slow and even, the rise and fall of his chest steady enough to convince anyone that the world outside these walls was still ordinary.It wasn’t.. Not anymore.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw twisted metal.Glass exploding.. That pickup truck accelerating instead of braking.Someone had wanted us dead.. Eilan and I.Or was it just me?The realization settled beneath my skin like a splinter that refused to come out.I quietly pushed the blanket aside.The mattress barely moved but Elian murmured something unintelligible before turning onto his side, his fingers searching instinctively for the warmth I’d left behind.For a dangerous second, I almost climbed back into bed. Instead, I leaned down and brushed a strand of dark hair away from his forehead.“You’ll hate me for leaving,” I whispered.“But you’ll hate me even more

  • The Devil In Therapy   New Brooklyn

    EmileThere were only three things my father had ever asked me never to touch.His private ledger.. The Vulturis archives and.. Brooklyn.Yet I was the one who cleaned up the mess without knowing what the truth really was all I knew was something had happened there that traumatized Aiden..The first two I had ignored years ago.The third had remained buried.Until now.Rain lashed against the floor-to-ceiling windows of my office, washing Manhattan into little more than blurred lights and gray silhouettes. The city looked distant tonight, as though someone had pulled a veil over it.A knock sounded. “Come in.”Victor stepped inside carrying a weathered manila envelope. Unlike the neatly printed reports my investigators usually delivered, this one bore no company logo, no return address, only a faded government seal that had been crossed through with black ink.“It arrived twenty minutes ago.”I looked at it without touching it. “So they finally found it.”“They almost didn’t.”“What d
