LOGINVictoria didn’t sleep.
She stayed up until 4 AM, headphones in, listening to every Lily Carter song she could find. She wrote down lyrics, dates, and connections. It felt like the more she dug, the worse it got.
One song from Lily’s last album repeated in her head like a warning:
“He cooks for me in the kitchen…
He cooks for me in the bedroom… Burned the old one down just to light the way for you, my star.”This was not just artistic to her anymore. It felt like a confession. A confession she was minded to fully understand.
At 9 AM, Victoria did something she promised herself she wouldn’t do.
She went back to Sebastian’s villa unannounced.
She still had the spare key he had given her two nights ago. The house was quiet. Sebastian had mentioned he would be at a morning meeting. She told herself she was only going to look around for five minutes.
She started in the living room. Then the study.
Her hands were shaking as she opened drawers. She found nothing at first - until she reached the bottom drawer of his desk.
Inside was a thick folder that looked like it contained dangerous secrets.
She opened it with trembling fingers.
The first page was a photo of Marco Vale - he was smiling, happy, and standing in front of his famous restaurant.
Red ink was written across his face:
“Problem Solved.”
Underneath were thick documents.containing bank transfers, emails and screenshots of messages between Lily Carter and someone named “S”.
One email from Lily stood out, sent three weeks before Marco Vale’s scandal exploded:
“Destroy him completely. I want his career in ashes. Then I’ll make you the biggest star this world has ever seen. You belong to me now.”
Victoria’s stomach dropped.
She took photos of everything with her phone, her heart hammering so hard she felt like she was going to drop dead anytime soon. She was about to close the folder when she saw one last item at the bottom.
A photo of Sebastian and Lily Carter. They were naked in bed together. Lily was kissing his neck while Sebastian stared at the camera with cold, empty eyes.
The date on the photo was only eleven months ago.
Victoria felt like she was going to be sick.
She quickly put everything back exactly as she found it and left the villa as fast as she could. Her hands would not and could not stop shaking the entire ride home.
That night, Sebastian texted her.
Sebastian: Come over. I miss you.
Victoria stared at the message for twenty minutes in a haze of indecision. Her body still wanted him. Her pussy still ached for him. But her mind was screaming that she was in danger.
She went anyway.
When she arrived, Sebastian looked normal - warm and pleasant. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her like nothing was wrong. But something in his eyes was different tonight.
They barely made it past the living room.
He bent her over the couch, pushed her dress up, and fucked her hard from behind. There was no foreplay, and no sweet words. Just raw, hard, and possessive thrusts. Victoria came twice, moaning his name, even while tears burned in her eyes.
After he finished inside her, he didn’t pull out right away.
Instead, he leaned over her back, his lips brushing her ear, and whispered:
“I know you went through my desk today.”
Victoria froze.
Sebastian slowly pulled out of her and stepped back. She turned around, her legs shaking, his cum dripping down her thighs.
His expression was ice cold.
“You really should not have done that, Victoria.”
He took a step closer. His voice dropped even lower than the barely audible tone he was already speaking in.
“I warned you. Multiple times.”
Victoria’s heart was pounding so hard she could barely breathe. For the first time since she met him, real fear flooded her body. Sebastian reached out and gently brushed a tear from her cheek with his thumb. The gesture was almost tender.
But his eyes were terrifying.
“Now you have a choice to make,” he said softly, dangerously.
“Either you stop digging right now…
Or I’ll have to make sure you never want to dig again.”He leaned in and kissed her forehead, almost lovingly.
“Think very carefully, baby. Because once I decide how to handle this…
There’s no going back.”The next morning, Victoria woke up before Sebastian.She slipped out of bed quietly and went to the terrace with a cup of coffee. The ocean looked calm today, but she felt anything but that. She felt chaotic.The three days Lily had given her were slowly ticking into two. She had just over 48 hours to decide whether to betray the man sleeping in the bed behind her… or let Lily destroy both of them.She sat on one of the lounge chairs, pulling her knees to her chest. The wind was cool against her skin. She closed her eyes and let memories wash over her._________________She remembered being fourteen years old, sitting on the floor of her parents’ studio while her mother painted.“You have a gift, my love,” her mom had said, brushing paint off Victoria’s cheek.“But gifts come with responsibility. Never use your art to lie and never use it to hurt people. Promise me.”“I promise,” young Victoria had said solemnly.Her father had laughed from across the room.“Our little truth-teller
The deadline Lily gave her came and went.Victoria didn’t reply to the message. She didn’t go to any meeting. She simply let the 24 hours pass in silence.Lily responded with a new message the next morning:“You just bought yourself three more days. After that, I start burning things. Starting with your precious little reputation.”Three days.That was all the time that she had left to figure out her next move. ____________________The next two days passed in a strange, heavy fog.Victoria stayed at her own loft most of the time. Sebastian didn’t push her to come over. He only sent her short messages instead - “Thinking about you”, “Miss your taste”, “Be safe” -and she replied with single words or emojis. Both of them knew the real conversation was hanging in the air like it was smoke.She tried to paint.For the first time in weeks, she actually finished something that she had intentionally started. It was a self-portrait - or at least, it started that way. A woman was standing i
Victoria woke up the next morning in Sebastian’s bed with his arm heavy across her waist.For a few peaceful seconds, everything felt almost normal. There was the sound of the ocean, the warmth of his body, and the way he pulled her closer, even in his sleep.Then reality violently crashed back in.Lily Carter’s voice echoed in her head. There was the 24-hour countdown. Then, there was that folder in his study. The photo of him naked with Lily.She carefully slipped out of bed and went to the bathroom. She stared at herself in the mirror for a long time, or what felt like an eternity to her. Her lips were still slightly swollen from last night. There were faint marks on her neck and thighs. She looked like a woman who had been thoroughly claimed.But inside, she felt like two different people fighting for control.The old Victoria - the one who believed in truth and light - was screaming at her to run as fast as she could. To find a way to expose everything and also save herself.Th
Victoria didn’t go home.Instead, she went straight to Sebastian’s villa with tears still drying on her face and Lily Carter’s threats still ringing in her ears.She used her key and walked inside like a woman who was walking to her own execution.Sebastian was waiting in the living room, wearing only black sweatpants. The moment he saw her, his eyes narrowed.“You’ve been crying,” he said. His voice was low and dangerous.“What happened?”Victoria didn’t answer.She walked straight up to him, grabbed his face with both hands, and kissed him like she was drowning. It was hard, desperate and angry.Sebastian growled against her mouth and lifted her up instantly. Her legs wrapped around his waist as he carried her to the dining table and slammed her down on it.Clothes came off in seconds.He didn’t bother with foreplay. He shoved her legs apart and thrust into her in one brutal stroke. Victoria cried out - it was a cry of half pain and half pleasure. He fucked her like he was punishin
Victoria arrived at the old lighthouse at 2:56 PM. The wind whipped violently off the sea, salty and cold. The abandoned structure stood like it was a broken guard against the gray sky, and her heart hammered so hard she could feel it in her throat.She almost turned back.But she didn’t.At exactly 3:00 PM, a sleek black car pulled up. A driver stepped out and opened the back door.Lily Carter emerged like a goddess stepping out of legend.She was even more striking in person. She wasn't too tall, but she carried herself in a way that made her look taller than she actually was, she was elegant, with sharp cheekbones and piercing green eyes that seemed to see straight through Victoria.She wore a long black coat that billowed in the wind like they were wings. Power radiated from her.“So you’re the one,” Lily said, her voice smooth as a polished stone, but sharp as a blade.“The little artist who’s been fucking my masterpiece.”Victoria’s stomach twisted. She wanted to say somethin
Victoria didn’t plan to go back to him.But at 11 PM the next night, she found herself standing outside Sebastian’s villa again, wearing a simple hoodie and jeans, her eyes red from crying.He opened the door before she even knocked.For a long moment, they just stared at each other. There was no kissing, and no dirty words exchanged. It was just pure silence.“I shouldn’t be here,” she whispered.“But you are,” Sebastian replied softly. He stepped aside.“Come in.”They sat on the big couch in the living room. Unlike before, there was no wine and no music. Just the sound of the ocean crashing far below the cliffs..Victoria’s voice shook when she finally spoke.“Tell me the truth. All of it. No more half-answers. No more warnings. I need to know who you really are.”Sebastian leaned back, running a hand through his hair. For the first time since she met him, he looked tired. Almost… human.“You really want to hear this?” he asked.She nodded.He stared at the dark ocean for a long ti
