All Chapters of An Illicit Obsession : Chapter 81 - Chapter 89

"Christen Meng, he has escaped."The room stilled as Sebastian broke the news. For all the things happened recently, Mengs found their way inside the SNO.Killian looked at him with a glare that can turn anyone into stone. I repressed a shudder, what will happen to Sebastian?"What is the status?" he asked.My fears for him were unfound. Sebastian, in his all-black suit, stood there straight without a hint of a frown. I can see why he was Killian’s right-hand man."We covered everything in a hundred miles radius from the HQ," he said. "There is no sign of him. As for the HQ, it has been searched thrice.""Who have recently engaged with him in his cell?" Killian asked.Though both parties seemed calm as they conversed in polite professional voices, the temperature in the room was dropping as the silent fury stormed in Killian’s eyes."It was Nova and Ivy who went in to interrogate him again, and then it was Juno who gave him lunch. But in the CCTV we s

Killian pulled away quickly and groaned, turning me and pinning me between him and the desk. He clutched my arms, his hot breath brushing against my cheeks as he breath heavily. He closed his eyes and his face twisted in conflict. "I created a perfect opportunity and I should leave," he whispered. I don't know who he was telling this to—him or me? I chuckled. I love it when he loses control. My heart pounded with anticipation but I pulled myself together. He was right. Time is of the essence. I hate to do this. I touched his chest and pushed him away gently. He opened his eyes. "You should go. I am right here anyway," I assured him. He kissed me again and stepped back, his eyes lingered as he went to change. I went back to my laptop and started it, rubbing the back of my neck. It still aches. What next? Where should I start from? Killian wants me to send Adeline’s video to the media. It is a perfect racket j

Ice fisted around my heart, I didn't know which part to focus on that Adeline was dead or that I was now a prime suspect in her murder.".....fueling speculation and making the former heiress a prime suspect in what authorities are now calling a suspicious death," the anchor started to tell the history of the undercurrent battle of inheritance inside the Anderson Group.I am the prime suspect? This...This makes no sense?Everyone looked at me."Did Killian...?" Jina's words trailed."Of course not!" I said quickly and got up, my phone rang, it was on the table."I will go and check with my sources," Misha quickly dashed out."I will check if there are any reports they are not telling," Kevin said, taking the lead. Ian and Sky followed."Mila, we need..." Jina started, but I put my fingers on my lips to tell her to stay silent as I saw the number was Killian’s.I picked up."You alright?" Those were the first words that came out of his mouth.

The indication was clear.He will kill him.There is no way out."His blood will be on me," he said, looking at me with a hard stare. "You are free to hate me afterwards, if it gives you peace."So I could what? Stay at my false moral pedestal. Killian Knight, you still think too highly of me. When it comes to desire of surviving I may disappoint you, how far I am willing to go.I have read few fairytales myself, however, never I thought I would be part of them. The eternal love, the hope and promises they talk about were not just out of reach for me, they are mythical.He leaned towards me, his eyes burning with intensity, that flooded fire in my veins and steeled my thoughts from me."However, if you would want to leave me, I am afraid it is impossible," I could see in the depth of his dark eyes his obsession burning to consume.True love is not just loving someone in blind faith. True love is knowing someone inside out, and still wanting to love them no matter what.I have reache
