Darkest Desires CHAPTER 116
YVONNE"Vladimir!" I hissed when I finally escaped his lips. "I need answers!" "What's going on?" I snapped. "Why are they here?"He let out a long sigh. He pulled a chair to sit, then grabbed my waist to let me sit on his lap."Vlad!" I rolled my eyes. How can we talk properly when he can't seem to keep his hands to himself?Damn it! And I am just as worse! I'm like a dry leaf being burnt when it comes to him!"Okay, okay," he chuckled but still hugged me tightly. His head settled against the crook of my neck."I thought you would be happy to see them," he murmured after a while. "They could be the first refugees of your shelter."That shut me up for a while. Am I happy to see them free? Of course! I was just confused.I sighed."I'm happy to see them, okay?" I said in a low voice. "I just have so many questions.""Fire away," he said, his arms wrapping tighter around me."How did you get them out of the ring?" I asked."There's no more ring," he whispered, his lips touching my skin

YVONNE My days were bustling after that. There was so much to do and yet I don't feel exhausted. Instead, I feel content and happy. With the foundation's help, we were able to find most of the women's remaining family. Especially those who wanted to go back to them. We provided some of the programs that should be available if only the shelter was already complete. They underwent extensive health check-ups and counseling with our professional volunteers. Some women who didn't have anywhere to go to remained in the hideout for the meantime. They will be transferred once the shelter is built. "Can we give them jobs in the shelter?" I mumbled while looking at the personnel we needed to hire. We were looking for professionals like counselors, a psychologist, a doctor, and such. But we also have open positions that I think the girls might qualify like coordinators or even utility staff. "I think that would be a good idea," Dave agreed. "Do you think so?" I frowned. I feel somehow to

YVONNEI can't believe I was able to stand up to Jade. I stared at the door where she had just left not too long ago. It opened after a few seconds."What happened?" Dave worriedly asked. He came in with my secretary behind her."Nothing," I sighed. "She just has some concerns about the girls."The argument seemed to have drained my energy. I suddenly wanted to go home and rest. I sighed and glanced at the documents I needed to review and sign."You can take the rest of the day off," Dave suggested as if he had just read what was on my mind."But how about these? I still have a lot to do," I slumped against my seat."I'll take care of it," he said before turning to my secretary."Jane, call her driver and tell him she wants to go home now," he ordered."Thank you," I muttered.It didn't take long before I was already in the car, driving the way back to the penthouse. My bodyguard walked me to the elevator and into the unit.My phone suddenly rang after I closed the door. I fumbled ins

YVONNE"Did you really think you could just forget about me, huh?" she asked as if I owed her something.I rolled my eyes. Did she forget what she had done to me?"What? Are you just going to ignore me?" I heard her snap when I remained unresponsive.I chuckled humorlessly."You have no right to demand anything from me," I lazily muttered. I don't even know why I am still talking to her. But this was my chance to tell her everything I wanted to."You can't abandon me after what I have done to you! You won't get to where you are if not for me!" she yelled.What?! I wanted to laugh. Ha! Where did she get the guts to say that?My whole body turned numb and cold. I was so shell-shocked by her audacity that I couldn't react at first. I suddenly regret ever talking to her. She makes me sick."You sold me!" I hissed through gritted teeth. I wanted to yell and lash out at her, but I didn't want to give her the satisfaction."And so?!" she mocked. "You should be thankful and learn how to look

YVONNEHe was too stunned to react at first.I could feel him stiffen before he relaxed and started to kiss me back with the same intensity. I moaned when he pushed his tongue inside my mouth. All my other thoughts came flying out the window.It felt right. His kisses began to consume me until I couldn't think about anything but his lips on mine.Diversion.This is exactly what I need.I stopped to get out of the tub, water dripping down my body. His eyes immediately raked my naked form, but I didn't mind. I stood in front of him."Yvonne, what are you doing?" he asked.Instead of answering, I pulled him up and started kissing him again.I vent out all my frustrations into that kiss. I was desperate to forget about the words that she just told me. They keep on echoing inside my mind."Vlad," I whimpered.I entangled my arms around his nape, then jumped to wrap my legs around his waist. He quickly reached for my behind and lifted me to support my weight.My kisses turned more aggressiv

VLADIMIR "Are you okay now?" I asked while we were having dinner the next day. "Hmm?" she confusedly looked at me. She looked so vulnerable when I found her in my tub yesterday. The way she wanted to make love almost the whole night felt like it was her lifeline. We were so tired that I didn't get the chance to ask. I doubt if she'll tell me either. So I called Dave first thing in the morning to know what was going on. He told me about Jade's visit. Yvonne apparently went home after that, looking upset. I can ask Jade but I decided to talk to Yvonne first. "Are you okay? Did something happen yesterday?" I said while looking at her intently."I heard Jade went to your office. What did she tell you?" I mentioned when it seemed like she didn't want to speak. She shifted in her seat. She took her glass and sipped while avoiding my gaze. "Uhm, it's nothing important," she said after a while. "Are you sure?" I frowned. "I know her. She won't come to your office unless she has an im

YVONNEI stared at the screen of my laptop. I was checking my savings. I'd only worked in the foundation for a few months, but being the executive director made me earn a hefty amount.It should be enough for me to start anew. Perhaps I can rent a cheap apartment and eat for a few months with this.My heart clenched painfully. Thinking about leaving makes me want to cry. I couldn't bear to imagine leaving Vladimir. But I would have no choice when the time comes. Surely, he will kick me out of his life when my identity comes out in the open.My heart felt heavy. I could feel my eyes sting with tears behind my lids.I don't know why, but it won't be easy for me. Is it the security I felt in his company? Or perhaps the luxury that he made me experience here? This life is a dream come true for everyone. Knowing that I had to walk away from it already breaks my heart.But is it really what I'm going to miss? I don't know. I'm not sure about how I feel.All I know is I have to leave everyt

VLADIMIR"Sir, Ms. Foster is here," my secretary informed me.I looked up and clicked my neck. It's getting stiff from reviewing the proposal we were working on.I'd been losing my regular clients lately due to my unknown competitor. I need to open a new market for my goods to lessen my loss."Let her in," I said after heaving a deep sigh.She looked like a volcano about to explode. Fuck. I don't want to deal with another drama, but do I have a choice? I can't just kick her out of my office."What brought you here?" I asked."What the hell is wrong with your wife?" she hissed. "Is she even thinking?"I frowned."Why? What did she do?""She's ruining our brand!" she yelled frustratedly. "Our foundation is known as one of the most prestigious. We have wholesome projects, but look at what she's doing now! A raffle promo?! Seriously?""She's dragging your name into the pits! Where did she even get those whores?" she's like a kid throwing a tantrum.I took a deep breath to calm myself down

Darkest Desires CHAPTER 159
YVONNE I took a deep breath while the elevator moved up. We were heading to the penthouse. I didn't know what to expect. The anticipation is fucking killing me. What if I just volunteer to leave? I'm sure Vladimir wouldn't mind. I chewed on my bottom lip. He would probably appreciate it. Should I? I gasped when the elevator pinged, signaling we reached the right floor. We're here. I heaved another lungful of air before stepping out of the elevator. The short ride felt suffocating. The bodyguards walked me to the unit. I scanned my index finger and sighed in relief when I realized I still had access to the front door. He's not kicking me out. At least, not just yet. If I thought he would kick me out when my identity was uncovered, now that Riva turned out alive, it felt all too real. I was kind of expecting to see them in the living room, waiting for me, probably with my luggage and the divorce papers in hand. But the unit was too quiet when I stepped in. It was empty.
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 158
YVONNEI was beyond dumbfounded. I didn't even realize we had already arrived at the hospital. I can't believe I was kidnapped twice in just a short matter of time."We're here," the driver said.Two men escorted me to the emergency room. I told them I was okay and there was really no need to go here but then I remembered how I was bashed in the head with a gun. That part of my head was still throbbing but the crazy events of the night made me numb.The nurses immediately checked if I had wounds. The area where I was hit was tender and sore but it didn't have an open wound."We still need to check. You could have internal bleeding or concussion," the attending physician said when I told them I wanted to go home already.That sounded over dramatic. I wanted to insist on being discharged, but then I remembered I may not have a house to return to anymore.Riva is back. The thought brought a bitter taste to my tongue. She is Vladimir's real wife. Where will that leave me?"Okay," I weakl
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 157
YVONNEHow is this even possible? Am I hallucinating?I know I've only seen her in pictures, but...I glanced at Vladimir. Looking at his shocked and pained expression, I knew I was right. It was Riva standing behind the second-floor railing."Dad, stop this! What else do you want?" she cried, weakly sliding onto the floor. I don't think she noticed Vladimir yet."Hush, mia cara," her father cooed before turning to Vlad who still hadn't recovered from his shock.I couldn't blame him. Even I was left gaping at the scene unfolding right before my very eyes."Did you miss Riva?" her father taunted him.A loud gasp echoed. I looked up to see Riva staring back at Vlad. My heart clenched painfully when I saw the longing in her eyes, which mirrored the same expression in Vlad's. The more I stare at them, the more real it gets. She's alive. Riva is alive. I felt an inexplicable stabbing pain in my chest."V-vlad," she called, her voice sounded pleading.Her father gestured something and the
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 156
YVONNEWhat the hell is going on?!I tried to call for help but the car made a sharp turn, causing my head to hit on the door.Damn it! I groaned in pain as I felt the car going faster. The speed and the hit on my head made me a little dizzy. Despite that, I still tried to look outside to see where we were heading but couldn't see anything clearly.It was dark and we were going so fast. I grabbed onto the door handle when the man suddenly hit the brake. I almost slammed into the back of the shotgun seat. "Where are we going?" I asked while looking at the man who had taken me. He was wearing a ski mask, making it impossible for me to recognize him.Is this Raoul, Riva's brother?"Who are you? Why are you doing this?!" I cried but he didn't bother to respond. He just kept on driving as if he were in a race.Memories from the last time I was kidnapped replayed in my head like a broken record. No. I won't let it happen again. I looked for something I could use in the backseat. My eyes wi
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 155
VLADIMIR"Which of your wives are you looking for?" he smirked. The daunting smile on his crooked lips told me he knew something I didn't."What the hell are you talking about?" I grunted impatiently. I looked around, hoping to see Yvonne, but she was not anywhere in sight. What is he planning to do to her?"Oh," he clutched his chest as if he was in pain. "Have you already forgotten about my daughter? You're hurting my feelings, Vladimir," he chuckled.I frowned. Why is he acting like this? Is he taking his daughter's death lightly or is he mocking me?Fuck him."Let Yvonne go," I growled. "She should be out of this. Whatever happened in the past has nothing to do with her!""Do you think I didn't know that?" he chuckled humorlessly. "But you are in no position to give me orders. You are in my territory. I can get you killed in a snap of a finger."Well, that's what he thinks."Tell me, did you really forget about my precious daughter?" he asked. "Don't you think it's insulting that
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 154
VLADIMIRI wanted to be with her. Today, a press conference will be held to address the issue of Yvonne's past and real identity. It had been a hot topic in the business world and started to affect the value of our stocks in the market.Yvonne wanted to speak the truth about the issue. I was advised by the company's public relations director against it, but I still went on with my decision. I know this is a big deal for her and I wanted to be by her side.Unfortunately, I couldn't.Blaze just called me. They already knew where Leon Vitelli was hiding. We needed to quickly devise a plan to take him down. I have to be there to ensure he will be caught."He was spotted going into a warehouse near the bay this afternoon," Blaze pointed at the large map on the screen."We already planted a mole inside," he added."Good," I calmly nodded even though the gears in my head were turning rapidly.We talked about how we were going to capture Leon and his son, Raoul. I clenched my teeth when Riva's
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 153
YVONNEI covered my ears with my hands. I can feel the car shaking with the force of the gunshots coming from high-caliber guns. I know Vladimir's cars were all bulletproofed. But would it really last from this kind of attack? It felt like the glass was being hammered by the raining bullets. "What's happening?!" I asked no one in particular. My voice trembled with fear. Aside from Matias who sits with me on the backseat, we have a driver and another member of the security team riding shotgun.It didn't do anything to make me feel safer though. I know they are all capable and well-trained but this scene seemed to be straight out of a damn action movie!"We're getting ambushed," Matias hissed.I tried to peek outside despite the paralyzing fear taking over my body. I immediately saw three black vans parked in front of us, blocking us from driving forward! Most of the shots were coming from them.I shrieked and ducked when a louder noise came up. Shit! I feel like the windshield is goin
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 152
YVONNEI breathe heavily, taking in a lungful of air hoping it would somehow calm the brewing storm inside me. I am sitting backstage waiting for my cue to come out.I fidgeted my fingers on my lap. My palms were cold and sweating. I had taken a peek earlier and saw how many people were eagerly waiting outside. I took another breath."You can do this," I whispered.Vladimir agreed to my request. The company's PR team arranged a press conference to address the issue. I am given a chance to tell my side of the story. I can speak out my truth.I don't know how it would turn out in the end, but that doesn't matter now. This is me taking back the reins of my life. This is me taking the first step to get my freedom back.I know not everyone will understand. Speaking up will not magically turn the situation around. I know that. I have prepared myself for that. ,q1My heart thumped wildly inside my chest. This is gonna cause too much trouble. Vlad might hand me the divorce papers after this.
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 151
YVONNE I love you... The realization hit me like a bullet train. Damn it! The euphoric feeling from the mind-blowing orgasm he gave me quickly dissipated into the air.You're so stupid, Yvonne! I bit my tongue as I cursed myself internally. I almost said it out loud at the height of my emotions. I am still gasping for air while he gently rolled off me.He put his arm under my head, then pulled me closer. I looked at him. His eyes were closed while catching his breath. There were beads of sweat on his forehead due to the strenuous activity we just finished. He must be running for the hills now if he heard me say those words.I wouldn't blame him if that happened. Even I find it ridiculous! I wanted to laugh even though I didn't find it funny. But do I mean it? Do I really love him? I thought while staring at him.Love. It sounded foreign. I didn't know it was part of my dictionary until now. I don't think I ever felt it. Nobody ever loved me. I never loved anyone either. Love was
