When Obsession Wears a Ring Him Again
The suite felt enormous without her in it.Raymond had walked through every corner twice, not because he expected to find her in the bathroom or out on the balcony, but because moving was the only alternative to standing still, and standing still meant thinking, and thinking right now was something his mind was doing with a cruelty he hadn't anticipated.He had ruined it.He had taken the best morning he'd had in years, maybe longer, maybe the best morning he could remember, full stop and he had opened his mouth and handed her a reason to walk out. He'd known it before the words were even finished leaving him. He'd watched her face change in real time, watched the warmth drain out of it and something careful and closed move in to replace it, and he'd felt completely, utterly powerless to stop it because the truth was immovable and the situation was what it was and there was no version of this conversation that ended cleanly.But he should have told her sooner.That was the thing that
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 55 - Always By Your Side
There's no point in you coming, Derek." Tessa wiped her face with the back of her hand and looked up at the sky above , a bit grey, just like her current emotions."I promise you, I'm going to be fine. I just needed someone to rant to for a second. That's all.""I know you're going to be fine." His voice was unhurried and carried so much comforting certainty." You'll always be fine, Tessa. You're stronger than you give yourself credit for. But that doesn't mean you have to keep doing everything alone.""I'm not alone. I'm in a very populated park surrounded by strangers.""That's not what I mean and you know it."She did know it. She just wasn't ready to acknowledge that he was right, because acknowledging it would mean acknowledging everything else… why she'd called him specifically, why hearing his voice had cracked something open in her that Raymond's touch hadn't been able to reach. She wasn't ready to look directly at any of that yet. It felt too much like standing at the edge of
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 54 - The Idea of You
Raymond knew he had to do something. He wanted badly to stop speaking and pull her into a tight embrace especially after seeing the broken look on her face. But he knew better than to stop now. For all it’s worth, she would think of him as the devil - a title he so deserves… but he needed her to know the reason behind the act and he silently prayed that she understood.* The silence that followed his words was the loudest thing Tessa had ever heard.She sat with it for exactly ten seconds… she had counted, without meaning to and then something in her chest that had been pulled taut since the moment he said promise me finally snapped, the way old elastic does when you've stretched it one time too many.She pulled her hand from his and stood up almost immediatelyRaymond reached for her in that instant, but she turned and the look on her face stopped him. It was something colder than anger"I should have known," she said.Her voice was steady. She hated how steady it was, hated that s
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 53 - Shred My Heart, Gently
The shrill loud ring of Raymond’s phone cut the lingering tension between them both and Raymond cursed silently before striding over to the bedside and took the call.Tessa heaved a huge sigh, her heart beating a bit fast. She didn’t want to think of what it could be that Raymond had to tell her. Was everything he had put up for the past weeks a show? Was he about to say something that would shatter her completely?It took the call for Tessa to agree that she was not ready for any emotional turmoil. She could hear him still talking in low tones but could only make out the words… dinner, meeting, investors’ so she figured it had to be work. Without giving it another thought, she left the room and stepped into the bathroom for a shower.The water ran through, and cooled her head instantly. She watched as it trickled down her body down to the floor and her eyes misted up. She let the tears flow freely. The water aiding by splashing directly on her face.Her back was turned to the door an
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 52 - The Confession
Tessa extracted herself from Raymond's loose grip and pushed back the covers, locating the robe that had been draped over the armchair at some point the night before and wrapping it around herself as he crossed the suite to get the door."Good morning," the young man said professionally. "Your breakfast order, sir."When the door clicked shut again, she was facing Raymond with her arms folded inside the robe. "You ordered breakfast?""I ordered breakfast," he agreed."And before you say anything, I remembered how you like your coffee."She opened her mouth and closed it back."Two sugars," he said, watching her. "No milk. A crime, but it's yours."She stared at him for a moment longer than she intended to, then moved toward the cart because it was easier than standing there feeling things about the fact that Raymond Anderson had, apparently, held her coffee order in his memory for however many years of distance had passed between them.They ate in silence.It was Tessa who broke the qu
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 51 - The Morning After
The first thing Tessa became aware of was warmth.Not the warmth of sunlight pressing through curtains, nor the familiar cocoon of her own bedding at home, this was something else entirely. Something alive. Two arms, heavy and certain, were wrapped around her waist, and the steady rhythm of breathing at the back of her neck was slow and deep, unhurried in the way that only true sleep could produce. For a moment, she lay still and let herself exist inside that feeling without question.Then the memories arrived.They came in fragments at first, the way dreams do when you're still halfway between worlds. The gala's golden light. The champagne that had tasted sharper than she'd expected. Raymond's hand finding hers beneath the table as though it had never left. The speech…God, the speech. His voice carrying across that enormous hall, unhesitant and unashamed, while she sat elegantly and felt something ancient and long-buried begin to stir in her chest. The drive back. The elevator. The d
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 46 - Mine
Tessa could see Derek’s frame as she moved closer, wide-eyed, disbelief etched into every line of his face. “What the… what the fuck are you doing here?” he demanded, staring directly at Raymond as if he had just walked into some twisted fever dream.Raymond didn’t budge. Not an inch. Not even a fl
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 45 - Caught in the Middle
Tessa had convinced herself that once she was back home, Raymond would simply settle her in and leave. But Raymond did not retreat. At least, this version of him didn’t.He had quickly stepped down and crossed to the other side of the car to get the door for her and as soon as the car door clicked
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 44 - You Again
Tessa didn’t leave her apartment for the rest of the week. Not for frequent early morning run or even to pick up the meals she ordered… she simply opened the door, grabbed the tray, and shut it again like she was afraid the hallway might bite her.At first, she told herself it was because she didn’
When Obsession Wears a Ring Chapter 43 - Who Sent the Flowers?
Tessa stared along cluelessly first at the boy, then back to Raymond who was already shutting the door after giving what appeared to be a nod to him.“You are not answering my question, Tessa. Who’s the damned man sending you flowers?”Tessa was furious and she was unable to hide it much longer. “H
