Semua Bab My OB-GYN My Undoing : Bab 11 - Bab 20

We walked fast and silently to the park, with Alaric by my side. The fountain sprayed in the sunlight, sharp and cold. Every drop felt like a reminder.“Sit,” he said, his voice rough. He pressed a folded handkerchief to my neck, a soft linen.I caught the tiny initials stitched in one corner: A.S. He guided me to the bench, careful, and steady, like I might fall apart if he wasn’t holding me up.Blood dotted the white handkerchief. I let out a shaky laugh.“You actually carry handkerchiefs?”He gave a small, tired smile. “Old habit.” Then he crouched down, his eyes meeting mine. “Let me see.” His thumb grazed the smear of blood at my collarbone. “You will scar,” he said softly.“Adds character,” I tried to joke, but it fell flat.A ghost of a smile tugged at his mouth, but didn’t reach his eyes, they kept searching the crowd, restless and haunted.“You need to leave him.”“I can’t.”“You can,” he said, firmer this time. “Before it’s too late.”The word lingered between us, it fel

I woke late, the apartment was quiet except for the hum of Mariel’s fridge. The bruise had darkened overnight, its violet and ugly, blooming up my wrist like some sort of ugly tribal mark. I stood in front of her bathroom mirror, the ice long melted, and just stared at my wrist. It didn’t look like my skin anymore.By the time I exhaled, I had already booked the appointment under a fake name, W. Daniels, by 2 p.m., for a routine follow-up. No Elias. No questions.Mariel had already left for work. I left a note on the counter: Errands. Back by five. My handwriting shook, but I didn’t bother to fix it.The subway was packed by the time I got there, but I barely felt the crowd. With my Hoodie up and my head down. Every screech of the rails sounded like the beating of my heart.St. Lucia Hospital rose ahead, tall and gray, beautiful and breathtaking just like it was when I came here the last time. Inside, the air smelled of disinfectant and old fear, with people and nurses walking up

He flipped me on my stomach with a growl that sent shivers down my spine. My cheek was pressed on the soft pillow, with the bed sheets tangled around us.His strong hands held my hips, spreading my thighs wide. I felt exposed and vulnerable, and achingly ready.His cock nudged at my entrance, thick, and hard before he entered me from behind in one slow, sweet thrust.He filled me completely, stretching me to the blink of pain and pleasure, his body heat matching mine too.I moaned into the pillow, the sound muffled, as he began to thrust deep inside me.Each stroke hitting that sweet perfect spot inside me.One of his hands was fisted on my hair, pulling my head back just enough to arch my spine.While his other hand is snaked around to rub my clit in tight teasing circles.The angle was good, and every stroke sending sparks through my core.“You feel so fucking good,” he murmured, his voice deep and rough.I pushed back against him, meeting his rhythm, my walls were clenching greed

At 8:03 a.m., the rumor showed up in my inbox, a company-wide BCC titled “Integrity in Leadership – A Reminder.” The second I saw it, my heart dropped.Under all the usual HR fluff was one line that hit harder than the rest:“Recent reports of unprofessional conduct involving a senior strategist and external medical personnel have been brought to our attention.”My name wasn’t in the email. It didn’t have to be. But I knew it’s me that the rumour was talking about.By 8:17, the Slack channel had already erupted.Did you see the email?Guess who’s been playing doctor?Hope she kept the receipts.I stared at my screen, the coffee I took moments ago curdling in my stomach. Elias. Only he could turn the board’s gossip into a weapon this fast.This Elias is just a weapon fashioned against me. It hasn't been up to forty eight hours since I received a phone call from Alaric's ex wife.Now this scandal. Can my day get any worse?At 9:00 sharp, my boss, Lauren, appeared at my cubicle with that

Afterward, he looked for the nearest blanket and pulled it over us, he made sure that I was well covered.The firelight flickered across his chest, turning his skin a warm, molten gold.He hesitated, just enough for me to feel the shift in the air, then said, very softly,“There’s something you need to know.”“Elias didn’t just leak rumors,” Alaric said, his eyes were fixed on the fire like he couldn’t bring himself to look at me yet. “He stole patient data, years of records, he moved timestamps, and fabricated complaints. Enough to end my career if the board believes it and decides to look into the matter.”I pushed myself up to balance one elbow, the blanket slipping down my shoulder. “Why?”“It's because I have you,” he answered as he drew lines on my back. He was doing it in a way that made me calm.“And because Helena taught him how to destroy anything he can’t control.”I felt my throat dry, but I forced myself to look him straight in the eyes.“We need to stop him.”He nodded
