Chapter 17LOVE OR OBSESSION?RYAN,I wanted to stop.I wanted to do the right thing—to turn away, to focus, to face Emily. But I couldn’t.The obsession had already taken root, wrapping itself around my thoughts like ivy, suffocating every rational decision I tried to make. It wasn’t just curiosity anymore. It was something darker, something that pulled me toward Elena in ways I couldn’t explain.Something that was becoming impossible to ignore.Eddy and I strolled down the hallway after lectures, the usual chatter of students filling the air. Laughter, hurried footsteps, the occasional slam of a locker—it all blurred together into meaningless noise. My mind was elsewhere, trapped in a maze of questions that led back to only one answer: Elena.She had been missing from school for days now, and no one seemed to be talking about it. Professors came and went all the time, but something about her absence didn’t sit right with me. It felt... off. Like a piece of the puzzle had been ripped

CHAPTER 16THE ART OF REVENGE.EMILY,I saw the look on Elena’s face, and a thrill of satisfaction coursed through me.It was fleeting—just a flicker of shock, quickly masked behind that composed exterior she always wore—but I caught it. And it was enough.I had been waiting for this moment, the moment she realized that I wasn’t just going to stand aside and watch her take what was mine.Ryan belonged to me.I had spent years with him, building something real, something that was supposed to last. We were meant to be together. He had whispered those promises into my ear on countless nights, sworn his love to me under the moonlight.And then, like a thief in the night, she came along, stealing him away without a shred of remorse.The betrayal was unbearable.The humiliation, even worse.I could still hear the whispers, the hushed voices in the corridors, the pitying looks from those who knew. I could still feel the sting of their eyes on me, their silent judgment. The girl who had every

Chapter 0015TRAPPED IN HER GAMEELENA,Why did they want me?What could they possibly want from me?The question looped in my mind like a haunting melody I couldn’t silence. Every scenario I imagined left a heavy weight in my chest. Anxiety pressed against my ribs, wrapping around me like a tightening coil, making it impossible to breathe freely.Beside me, Evan was eerily silent. He hadn’t spoken a word since we left, his hands gripping the steering wheel with enough force to turn his knuckles ghostly white. I could hear the slight grind of his teeth every few seconds, a sound so soft yet filled with restrained fury. It made the air in the car thick, suffocating.I stole a glance at him. His sharp jaw was locked, his usually expressive green eyes unreadable. I knew this kind of quiet well—it was the kind that came before a storm.When we finally stepped inside the house, Evan’s patience snapped.“I don’t understand it.” His voice was low, but each word was charged with frustration a

Chapter 0014THE BEAUTIFUL LIE I LIVEDELENA,The sting of antiseptic bit into my wounds, sharp and unforgiving. When Evan wanted to hurt me the last time he got a call from someone, and when he was told what they wanted, he untied me.Whoever that was saved me that day. Evan was ready to kill us both rather than lose me. His obsession led him to do crazy things—to hurt me and make excuses that it was out of love, that I made him do it. I knew Evan loved me, but his demons were out for me.I winced, sucking in a breath, but exhaustion dulled most of the pain. It was just another wound, another moment of suffering, blending into the endless cycle I had come to endure."Ouch…," I murmured, forcing myself to sit still as the doctor worked. "How long do we have to keep doing this?""Until it heals," he replied matter-of-factly, his voice calm but indifferent. "Hopefully, you’ll start feeling better soon."Feeling better. The words felt foreign—meaningless. What did better even mean anymor

Chapter 0013DREADING ON DANGEROUS PATHS.RYAN, After the disaster at my house, I hadn’t seen Elena. Days passed, but the rumors didn’t. The entire school was talking about us—about the way I had stood up for her, about the scandal that now clung to her name like a stain no one would let her wash away. I didn’t care what people said about me. They could whisper in the hallways, point fingers, smirk when I walked past. It meant nothing. But Elena? That was different. The school authorities had been oddly silent about the situation, which made me restless. I expected some sort of action—a meeting, a suspension, some kind of consequence—but there was nothing. The silence unnerved me because it felt like the calm before a storm. And then there was Emily. My fiancée. The woman I was supposed to love. The one my parents had chosen for me. She and her parents had made it clear that they wouldn’t stop until I fell in line. They wanted to force us together, to make things work, but I didn

Chapter 0012 TRAPPED BY EVAN'S OBSESSION.. ELENA, Time seemed to slow as I stood frozen, watching the chaos unfold in front of me. My breath hitched in my throat, my voice trapped behind a wall of shock and dread. I wanted to say something—to stop this disaster from spiraling further out of control—but I couldn’t. Words failed me. Ryan, ever the reckless force of nature, attempted to salvage the situation, his voice urgent and desperate. But it was too late. Everything was already a mess. My heart pounded violently in my chest as I spun on my heel and raced downstairs. My pulse roared in my ears, my hands trembling as I reached for my phone. The screen blurred in my vision as I hurriedly ordered a cab. I couldn’t stay here. I couldn’t face this. Ryan called after me, his voice laced with something that almost sounded like regret. I didn’t stop. I didn’t turn around. The cold night air bit into my skin as I stood by the curb, my arms wrapped tightly around myself. My thoughts

" I love you and I will wait, however long it takes for you to love me back."
