Dark Obsession 23. Secret
~ SIERRA ~ “Sierra Adeline Ascott, will you be my girlfriend?”Colton’s question hung in silence inside that gallery room. There was almost an echo and it kept ringing in Sierra’s ears. She was caught off guard and all she could do was freeze like a statue. Meanwhile, Colton’s face remained serious and his eyes were locked on hers, waiting.“...What?” she spoke finally, not knowing how else to respond.“Isn’t it obvious?” he said. “I don’t wanna see you with anyone else. You should be with me,”“Colton--”“I like you, Sierra. A whole damn lot,”Sierra felt like she had been struck by lightning. If she was caught off guard before, she was completely floored right now. Colton, her prince charming, the mysterious bad boy who’s turned her life into a movie, the man who has her weak in the knees and her heart racing like a speed car-- he just said that he likes her!“I…” Sierra opened her mouth to speak, but before she could do anything, she heard heavy footsteps coming towards the room.
Dark Obsession 24. Rendezvous
~ SIERRA ~“You and Colton are what now!?” Rosie almost choked on her coffee as Sierra told her the news over breakfast. Although she was the one who told Colton not to tell anyone about their relationship, Sierra couldn’t help herself and she just had to tell Rosie about it. “Ssshh!” Sierra put a hand over Rosie’s mouth quickly. “Keep it down, my dad’s upstairs!”“But, but, how?” Rosie gaped again, pushing Sierra’s hand away. “And what? And why?”“I told you, Rose,” Sierra shrugged simply. “He asked me about it at the charity gala and I said yes,”“But, whatever happened to just having fun?” Rosie reminded her. “You know this isn’t gonna go anywhere,”Sierra paused for a moment. She knew what Rosie was talking about. Her dad was pretty set on marrying her off to Raphael Rothschild. It might not happen right now, but it would happen someday, and her having a boyfriend was totally out of the question. “I know,” Sierra sighed. “But... who says I can’t have fun and have a boyfriend at
Dark Obsession 25. Careful
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - TWO WEEKS LATER - - - - -“Wow, you look great, Si!” Rosie chimed as she entered Sierra’s room. It was Halloween night tonight and the girls were all dressed up. Rosie was wearing a black wig and an all-black attire, resembling Morticia Addams. Right behind her, Ethan followed suit with his Gomez costume.“Thanks, you like my costume?” Sierra said as she twirled in her little light blue dress and matching crown.“Like it? I love it!” Rosie laughed. “Slutty princess, totally suits you,”“It’s not slutty!” Sierra gasped in horror, pulling down her skirt.“Sure, if you say so,” Rosie winked playfully and strode towards Sierra’s closet. She was coming over to borrow some shoes.“So, is your boyfriend gonna come as prince charming?” Ethan said somewhat nonchalantly, but he was curious about Sierra and her new boyfriend. Rosie was not supposed to tell him about this, but she couldn’t keep her mouth shut, of course. Luckily, Ethan was good at keeping secrets. No one els
Dark Obsession 26. Explore
~ SIERRA ~“Welcome to my humble abode!” Colton spoke as he pushed the double doors open, leading Sierra into his penthouse apartment. “You don’t have to worry about anyone ever finding us here,”Sierra took a step inside and she was immediately in awe. She lived in mansions and fancy apartments all her life, but this was definitely on the higher end spectrum. The floor was covered in marble, there was a crystal chandelier hanging above the foyer, and the gigantic windows displayed an unobstructed view of Central Park. When she was here before, she was in such a rush and in an unstable headspace, she couldn’t properly appreciate the masterpiece that was Colton’s home. “Wow,” she gasped in awe as Colton took off her coat and she stepped further down, admiring the art piece hanging on the wall. “Do you live here alone?”“Pretty much,” he shrugged and put her coat in the closet.“Where are your parents?” “They’re not around,” he said simply and walked towards the dining room. “Come on,
Dark Obsession 27. Experience
~ COLTON ~The way Sierra kissed him was magnetic. It was almost impossible to think that she was inexperienced in this area. She was such a natural, the way her soft lips coax and tangle with his, it was like they were moving to some unknown rhythm. Colton’s chest was burning with a fire he couldn’t explain. Kissing a girl was not a new experience for him. To be honest, he was never interested in kissing. It was only a prelude to the main course and Colton always went for the main course.This time, however, things were different. It felt so nice to kiss her lips and touch her face, rake her hair, and run his fingers on her back. Each and every moment was a revelation to be savored and for the first time ever, Colton didn’t want to rush things. There was much to be enjoyed and explored still. So, that was exactly what he did. Gently, he put a hand on her face and pulled her closer. Sierra let out a gasp and Colton used the momentum to push his tongue inside. He tasted every corner o
Dark Obsession 28. Attached
~ SIERRA ~“Where the hell are you?! Get your ass back home right now or your dad’s gonna kill us both!” Rosie was screaming at the top of her lungs, acting like a crazy mom. The urgency in her voice spread panic across Sierra’s face, she could only think of the worst.“Sorry! I lost track of time, I’ll be right there,” she replied as she haphazardly pulled herself off the couch, away from Colton’s warm arms. “Colton, I gotta--”“You gotta go,” he nodded understandingly. “I heard,”Sierra was scrambling. She was adjusting her dress, looking under the couch for her fallen shoes, and grabbing her purse all at once. Meanwhile, Colton moved slowly and precisely. He straightened his shirt and grabbed his coat. Then he swiped the motorcycle keys from the table and stretched out his hand.“Come on, I’ll take you home,” he said.“Umm… It’s okay, I can take the cab,” Sierra replied as she pulled her left shoe from behind the couch. She’d love Colton to take her home, that would give her an ex
Dark Obsession 29. Avoidance
~ SIERRA ~Sierra was anxious all day long. She could barely concentrate on her intro to media and culture class. She kept looking at the clock, dreading each minute that passed. Yes, on one hand, it was exciting to think about seeing Colton later tonight. But on the other hand, Rosie’s warning was ringing in her ear. Sierra never wanted her feelings to be involved. Or too involved. She knew she had an infatuation with Colton and she enjoyed spending time with him, but there was no way she’d let the feeling develop into something more. That was totally not the plan. The plan was just to have fun and live in the moment. She only had a few years of freedom left before it was time to fulfill her duties. This was only supposed to be a filler, something to distract her while she awaits her fate, nothing more.So, in order to keep things according to plan, Sierra must be careful with her choices. Going on secret dates with Colton, holding hands in the shadow of the alleyways, and kissing a
Dark Obsession 30. Memory
~ SIERRA ~What the hell am I doing? Why am I doing this? Oh my God!Sierra’s thoughts were racing like a roller coaster. Colton’s hands were roaming her body as she lay on her back on the carpeted floor. He was hovering above her, kissing and sucking on the sweet spot of her neck. She wasn’t supposed to be doing this. Everything was under control just a minute ago, but no, she had to kiss him and push the envelope some more. “Aah…” a soft moan escaped her lips as Colton’s hands started massaging her breasts.Stop! This has to stop! Sierra’s brain kept sending her warning signals, but her body wasn’t responding. She was drunk and drowning under Colton’s intoxicating touch. Every time he touched her, it was always something new and exciting. Her body was curious about it, and it desperately wanted more.“Relax, my princess. I got you,” Colton murmured into her ear as he pushed her body until she laid flat on her back. It was as if he knew she was battling herself in her head. “...I’

~ SIERRA ~- - - - - THREE YEARS LATER - - - - -The grand hall of Columbia University buzzed with excitement and anticipation as the graduating class of 2020 gathered in a sea of caps and gowns. Sierra found herself among them, surrounded by the familiar faces of friends and classmates. The air was charged with a mix of emotions, and Sierra can't help but feel a surge of sentimentality as she reflected on the journey that brought her to this moment.Wow. I can’t believe I’m really here, she thinks to herself.The journey has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. Sierra thought back to the late-night study sessions, the sacrifices made to balance parenthood and academia, and the unwavering support of her amazing husband. As she sat, waiting for the commencement ceremony to begin, her mind replayed the moments that defined the past few years.It’s nothing short of a miracle, really. From the first time she met Colton at her birthday party, to the time he took her on “magic carpet ride
Dark Obsession 96. Moon
~ COLTON ~Colton had already decided that one of the best things about being married to Sierra was watching her walk around in just her underwear.It was early evening on the last day of their honeymoon. They had spent most of the day at the beach and, after they had both showered, they had set about starting to pack their suitcases ready for the journey home. Colton was lying on the bed, having sorted and packed most of his clothes. Sierra had showered after him but had only partially dressed. She was padding around their bedroom ferrying clothes back and forth to the suitcase wearing only a rather cute set of matching light pink bra and panties.With that job done, Sierra went to put on a dress ready for dinner."Damn,” Colton muttered.“What?” she asked.“You’re just so gorgeous, princess," Colton said, shaking his head from side to side. “Oh, stop,” Sierra blushed and rolled her eyes."I’m telling you, all the guys in the restaurant -- when you wore that dress the other day, the
Dark Obsession 95. Honey
~ SIERRA ~The wedding was one crazy blur of a moment. It was something like a movie. Or a dream. Sierra felt like she was being whisked away from one place to the next. There was no time to stop, the momentum just kept going. Right after the ceremony was over, Colton had a helicopter prepared on the rooftop of the Plaza Hotel. Still wearing her wedding dress, Sierra got into the helicopter and they flew to the bright, blue sky.“It’s only for the weekend,” Colton said to her. “Just you and me,”Sierra had no idea where they were going, and she didn’t bother asking. Maybe it was the champagne in her veins or just the complete reckless abandon she felt whenever she was with Colton, but she was down for any kind of surprise with him.The next thing she remembered, Sierra woke up, unclear at first about where she was. But then she remembered...the huge bed, the smart room, it felt like a holiday resort, and it must be... The Hamptons. Yes. She was the brand new Mrs. Rhodes on her honeym
Dark Obsession 94. Willow
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - THREE MONTHS LATER - - - - -Summer was coming to an end and the weather was getting cooler in New York City. Sierra walked out of the Columbia campus library with her two friends, Anna and Jess, from the American Lit class. They had books piled up in their hands, making it hard for them to walk down the steps.“Thank God it’s finally Friday! I’m so done with writing for now,” Anna said.“I know. I can’t wait to put these down and go to McSorley's for drinks,” Jess replied.“Are you coming with us, Sierra?” Anna asked.“Oh, I’d love to, but I gotta go check on my baby,” Sierra flashed them a sorry smile. “Dang,” Jess muttered. “She’s the best writer in our class and she’s a mom. What can’t she do?”Sierra let out a laugh and shook her head.“I’ll join the next one. Enjoy your night, you guys,”Sierra waved one hand goodbye while using the other hand to keep all her books together. The school session was in full swing and work was starting to pile up. Luckily for
Dark Obsession 93. Sunshine
~ COLTON ~Colton was smiling from ear to ear. How could he not? He was looking at his beautiful fiancee and the healthy baby boy they have. Sierra was holding baby Seb in her arms, rocking him back and forth to get him to calm down. Baby Seb had stopped crying and he was now giggling at the funny faces Sierra was making. Colton couldn’t drop his smile as he leaned his head against the doorway to the nursery. Nothing in the world could bring him this much joy and feelings. He was the luckiest man in the world, and he never wanted to take this moment for granted.“I think he’s bored, he just wants to play,” Sierra commented, studying the look on her baby’s face.Colton could stand here and watch her play with baby Seb all day. Sierra made such a great mother. She had that motherly instinct. She knew exactly just what the baby wanted by looking at it. “Maybe we can take him to the beach?” Colton suggested.“That sounds fun,” Sierra nodded her head eagerly. “Wouldn’t that be fun, Seb?”
Dark Obsession 92. Summer
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - ONE MONTH LATER - - - - -“Attention everyone!” Colton said as he clinked his champagne glass with the knife. He was standing in the middle of the long table and Sierra was seated next to him. All around them were beautiful flower arrangements, candles, and a gorgeous feast. They were enjoying a wonderful birthday lunch for Sierra in Colton’s summer home in the Hamptons. All of their closest friends and family were in attendance, including Henri, baby Sebastian, Rosie, Ethan, Levi, Jackson, and of course, Winnie.“I just wanna raise a toast to my beautiful fiancee on her birthday today,” Colton said as he turned to Sierra. Everyone’s eyes were on them and they were ooh-ing and aah-ing. “Baby girl, you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I don’t know if any of you know this, but Sierra and I first met on her birthday two years ago. Thank you for falling out of that window and letting me catch you,” Sierra let out a laugh and everyone else did too. “I lo
Dark Obsession 91. Homecoming
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - TWO WEEKS LATER - - - - -“Breaking news! Last night, in a surprising turn of events, members of the Rothschild family, Raphael Rothschild and his father, Nathanael Rothschild, one of the wealthiest and most prominent families in New York City, were arrested by the CIA in relation to a shooting incident in France…”Sierra was sitting on the couch in Colton’s penthouse apartment when she saw the news on the TV. Baby Sebastian was asleep in her arms and she was rocking him back and forth slowly. She reached for the remote and raised the volume up, but not too much because she didn’t want to wake the baby up.“The CIA was first tipped off by the French National Police when a shooting occurred in the outskirts of Paris several weeks ago. In the shooting, Raphael Rothschild, the youngest son of the Rothschild family was injured, along with twenty other men of Russian origin. At first, the French police arrested Henri Ascott, another prominent man of New York City’s eli
Dark Obsession 90. Venerable
~ SIERRA ~Dark. There was nothing but darkness for miles. Sierra couldn’t see anything in front of her. The last thing she remembered was seeing Raphael holding a gun to Colton's back and she jumped as fast as she could. The loud piercing sound of the gun cut through the air and that was it. Everything turned dark after that. Sierra didn’t know how long she was out for. Sometimes she’d see flashes of light. She could also see the faces of people leaning in front of her. First, it was Colton, but then there were people that she didn’t know. Seeing that they were wearing masks and uniforms, maybe they were nurses or doctors. They were also speaking in French. She didn't know what they were saying, but they looked worried, so she got worried too."Colton..." she kept calling for him. "The baby..."Colton and the baby were the only things in her mind. Sierra didn't even care that she was bleeding out, lying on an operating table. She kept calling for his name over and over, until the nu
Dark Obsession 89. Wake
~ COLTON ~The police siren rang loudly in the background as Colton speeded away. Sitting in the passenger seat, Sierra was groaning and writhing in pain, and blood kept dripping from the side of her stomach. Damon glanced at her every chance he could, and every time he saw the blood pooling on the seat and dripping to the floor, he felt sick to his stomach.“Col…” Sierra tried to speak, but she was too weak.“Yes, princess, I’m right here,” he shakily put a hand on her, while still trying to focus on the road. “Co…”“Ssh, don’t speak, it’s okay,” he cooed. “You’ll be alright, I promise,”Colton’s eyes were welling up with tears. His voice cracked as he spoke. He couldn’t bear looking at her like this, writhing in blood and pain. And not just that, he didn’t even want to think about the baby. If something happened to her or to the baby, he wouldn’t know how to live with himself.Luckily for Colton, after a short drive down the hill, he saw a small hospital with an ER sign. Using all
