Dark Obsession 80. Strategy
~ SIERRA ~* KNOCK * KNOCK *Sierra turned her head around and saw the door opening slowly. She quickly closed the window and walked to the door. One of the guards appeared with Rosie behind him.“Miss Sierra, your cousin is here,” he announced.“Thank you, I got it from here,” Sierra tried her best to act natural though her heart was racing like a speed car.The guard kept a straight face as he nodded his head and exited the room. Rosie stepped further inside the room and waited until the guard closed the door. “Hey,” she greeted.“Rose!” Sierra leaped to hug Rosie. “What a surprise!”“I know, I have some news and I can’t wait to share it with you,” Rosie said as she hugged her back. “Don’t worry, I called earlier and got Raphael’s approval. He’s letting me stay until dinner,”“Okay, cool,” Sierra said as she stepped back. “What’s your news?”“Here. Open it,” Rosie handed her a small shopping bag.Sierra took the bag with a suspicious look. This must be big news, she thought. Otherw
Dark Obsession 81. Execution
~ SIERRA ~“Dinner is served!” Rosie chimed in excitement and gestured to the table full of food. They had everything from Caesar's salad to roasted chicken, grilled salmon, sliced steak, and all different kinds of pasta. If they didn’t know any better, people would’ve thought that this was a thanksgiving dinner.“Wow, are we feeding a small army?” Raphael chuckled as he took a seat at the head of the table.It was about 8 PM and Raphael had just come back from the office. Rosie and Sierra spent the last few hours cooking and baking away. Seeing as they had to use a ‘special’ ingredient, they couldn’t let the maids help at all. But still, everything turned out marvelously.“Sorry, I went overboard because I’m just too excited,” Rosie said as she sat down to the right of Raphael.“Did you hear? Rosie and Ethan are pregnant,” Sierra added, sitting on his left.“Yes, I heard,” Raphael said as he turned to Rosie. “Congratulations, again,”“Thank you,”“Is your husband going to join us for
Dark Obsession 82. Peaceful
~ SIERRA ~“Welcome back to Paris, Mr. Rhodes, Ms. Ascott,” Pierre smiled as he greeted Colton and Sierra. He took their bags from Colton’s hand and Colton helped Sierra walk down the steps of the private jet.“Thank you, Pierre. It’s good to be back,” Colton said as he turned to Sierra, lending out a smile.Sierra breathed the fresh Parisian air and felt a tingle in her body. She remembered the first time they came here last year on Spring break. So many things had happened since then, and yet, every time she stepped back into place, everything seemed to be preserved the way things were. It was a really good feeling to know that some things never change. Some places always welcome you the same way.Colton helped Sierra into the black SUV as Pierre was putting their bags into the trunk. Right before he closed Sierra’s door, Colton said, “Wait here one second, I just have to give the pilot some instruction,” Sierra nodded her head and Colton raced back to the jet. Sitting next to the
Dark Obsession 83. Nursery
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - TWO WEEKS LATER - - - - -Surprisingly enough, things were peaceful and normal for the next few weeks for Sierra and Colton. She was worried her dad would go crazy like he did last time, telling the media that Colton had kidnapped her and everything. But this time around, they didn’t hear anything. Not even a tweet. Sierra could only wonder what happened to Raphael the morning when he woke up and saw Sierra wasn’t there. He was being weirdly quiet about everything. Colton even said it was odd. Knowing Raphael, he should be throwing fits and tantrums.All this to say, things went on rather peacefully for now, but they still had to be careful. If Raphael and Henri were quiet, it must only mean that they were up to something. Not wanting to care too much about what they might be conspiring to do, Sierra focused her energy on growing the baby inside her. She was six months pregnant now, entering her last trimester. She was over the moon about making it through the f
Dark Obsession 84. Priceless
~ COLTON ~Sunlight streamed through the window as Colton was sipping his morning coffee. It was a slow start to a beautiful Spring day. Sierra was still fast asleep, but Colton was eager to start the morning. His cousins were coming over today after a week of being abroad, finishing up some work. Carrying his mug of coffee, he waited for them in his study. It was only 7 AM, but Colton was as ready as ever. A brown envelope lay in front of him on the desk.“Well, you’re up early,” Levi commented as he stepped into the office. Jackson was following closely behind.“Dude, she found out about the nursery already!” Jackson laughed. “You don’t have to sneak around anymore,”“I’m not sneaking around because of the nursery,” Colton replied.“Then why are you up at… 7.12 AM?”Colton let out a smile. He gestured for his cousins to sit down and they did. Very casually, Colton sat up straighter and picked up the envelope in his hand.“Believe it or not, I’m now in correspondence with Sierra’s da
Dark Obsession 85. Diamond
~ COLTON ~- - - - - TWO WEEKS LATER - - - - -The dawn was breaking and the sun was still low on the horizon. Colton’s eyes slowly opened and he saw Sierra’s face right in front of him. A smile curved up his lips instinctively. Waking up next to her, seeing her face first thing in the morning, these were the little pleasures in life that Colton wouldn’t take for granted. He was staring at her for the longest time, noting her beautiful features and how lucky he was to have her. Colton’s finger slowly reached up and he began caressing her face. Meanwhile, Sierra was still fast asleep. It was about six in the morning and she was exhausted. Being eight months pregnant was no easy thing. Sierra was tired all the time, sometimes getting heartburn and feeling difficulty breathing. But still, even at eight months pregnant, Sierra was still the most beautiful girl in the world for Colton. Her skin was glowing, her nose was as cute as a button, and her lips were just begging to be kissed. Co
Dark Obsession 86. Shelter
~ SIERRA ~Sierra couldn’t believe her eyes and ears. She thought this must be a dream. Something like this could only come out of a movie. But no matter how many times she blinked, Colton was still there in front of her, holding out a ring.“Colton…”“Yeah?”A smile curved up Sierra’s lips and her eyes turned glassy. This was really real. Colton had turned every fantasy, every dream she ever had about love and turned it into reality. Their story wasn’t perfect by any means, but it was real and it was the most beautiful thing in the world. “What do you say, princess?” Colton asked again, holding onto her gaze.“Of course, I’ll marry you…” Sierra said through the tears. Her voice came out in a whisper and her heart was racing. “A hundred million times yes!”The biggest smile formed on Colton’s face as he put the ring on her finger and stood up straighter, pulling her into a kiss. At the same time, she was also pulling him towards her. Their lips crashed onto each other like waves to t
Dark Obsession 87. Madness
~ SIERRA ~* BANG! BANG! BANG! *The knocking on the door went louder. Colton immediately got up and reached for his shirt. Sierra sat up too and Colton picked up her dress from the floor, throwing it at her.“Yo, Colton!” a voice was heard yelling from the outside. “I think you have something of mine and I’m gonna need it back!”Colton and Sierra shared a knowing look. That was Raphael!“Shit!” Colton muttered and haphazardly put his pants back on. Sierra was also rushing to put her dress on. Her heart was racing like a train and a pit was forming in her stomach.* BANG! BANG! BANG! *“Come out, the two of you!”Raphael’s voice was heard again and the hair in Sierra’s neck stood up. Her trauma triggers were on high alert. Just when everything was going so perfectly, Raphael always found a way to torture her.Sierra froze up in fear while Colton went to get his phone. He opened the app to show him the house’s CCTV footage and he saw Raphael’s face in front of the door. Luckily, the do
