Darkest Desires CHAPTER 119
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

YVONNEWe're going on a trip!I suddenly felt excited upon remembering the last one we had. That was so much fun. I think that trip was what brought us closer to each other. Everything between us became different after that. And it has been a while already!This is exactly what I need right now after all the drama with Anderson, my mother, and of course, Jade. I can't wait to go with him and leave everything behind even just for a few days.I wonder where we are going. He said it was a surprise. It made me feel giddy. Did he notice that I was stressed lately? Does he want us to unwind? Is this trip for me?Stop assuming, bitch! I quickly cursed myself to kill the excitement that was growing fast inside me.It didn't work though. I found myself going home early to pack just like he said."Oh, you're home!" Cora exclaimed whom I met on her way out of the unit. "You're early.""Yeah," I smiled at her. "Vlad and I are going on a trip tomorrow. I need to pack my bags.""Do you want me to h

YVONNE I ended up falling asleep in my room that night. Vlad came home late. I was already done packing my bags but he still hadn't come home yet. I spent every minute waiting for him while overthinking. He said we will leave at four in the morning. Why isn't he home yet, then? Is he still with Jade? What are they doing? Ugh. I literally had to force myself to sleep since our flight was early. It was already past midnight when I felt him enter my room. It has been normal for us to sleep together. I'm usually the one who sleeps in his room, but at times like this, when I fall asleep while waiting for him, he is the one to go to my room. Even half-asleep, I can smell the minty scent of his aftershave and shower gel. He smelled so good. I wanted to bury my nose in his neck, but my pride wouldn't let me. I pretended to be asleep as he lay down beside me. I tried hard not to move. He snaked his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I was sulking but immediately forgot abou

YVONNE I squeezed my eyes shut before opening them again, making sure I was not only seeing things. Nope. I'm seeing clearly. Jade is there, standing near the private jet. She hadn't seen me yet because her eyes were focused on Vladimir. Let's see how she would react once she saw me. But still, I wasn't a bit happy about this. Why is she here? Is she coming with us? Or did she come all the way here to say goodbye to Vlad? "Why is she here?" I asked when I couldn't help it anymore. "Who?" he confusedly asked. I looked up at him, only to find him staring at me. Tss. "Jade," I snapped. "She's there!" I pointed out. "Oh, right," he nodded. "I invited her to join us." "What?!" my eyes bulged after hearing what he said. He invited her. Why? Does he want to be stressed for the rest of this trip?! Damn it. At first, I was so excited when Vlad informed me about this trip. Yesterday, that excitement faded a little when I called him. Now, all I wanted to do was to go back home. I m

Darkest Desires CHAPTER 212
VLADIMIRI wished she could have stayed in bed with me a little longer, but I knew she had things to do—and so did I."I'm gonna drive you there," I told her as I got out of her bed.I don't understand how I was able to sleep soundly there. Perhaps it was my exhaustion or maybe it was just her. She has the ability to calm all the raging demons inside me."Uhm, okay," she hesitantly stated. "Coffee?""You don't need to bother. We can grab some breakfast before we go to the shelter," I said."Oh," she nodded before hurrying into a door which I assume was the bathroom.I looked around her tiny unit. I don't know why she's putting up with this when she can get a better place. I made sure she was paid enough to live comfortably. That was the only thing I could think of when she refused to accept anything from me.We dropped by a cafe to have our breakfast before I drove her to the shelter."I'll pick you up later," I told her when I stopped the car."Uhh," she played with her fingers on he
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 211
YVONNEI stared at my phone's screen. I sighed and put it down only to pick it up again. I scrolled randomly before finally tossing it away. I don't know why I seem to be waiting for it to ring or something.Oh, who am I kidding?!Of course, I was waiting for him to call or at least send a message! I chewed on my bottom lip, replaying our last conversation in my head. What if that was just a dream? Damn it!What did he even mean when he asked me for some time? What am I supposed to do? Should I just stay here and wait until he comes back? It's okay, right? I should give him that. But...Damn. The waiting game is giving me so much anxiety!What if he suddenly changes his mind when he talks to Riva? What if she makes him realize that he was just confused? What if it was just lust he was feeling for me? Ugh!I groaned while covering my face with a pillow. I'm alone in my unit again, overthinking! This would be the death of me!I don't know what else to do. I tried my best to keep myself
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 210
VLADIMIRNo. This can't be right.I glanced at Blaze who was looking at me apologetically."I know it's hard to believe, but everything points to her," he said.I harshly wiped my face with my palm. It's unbelievable. I can't imagine how she was able to orchestrate something like this.Well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I thought bitterly.I squeezed my eyes shut before looking at the files Blaze had given me when I arrived. I scanned them again, making sure I wasn't seeing things. I gritted my teeth while reading.They were complete with bank transactions, emails, and phone calls. I don't know how he got all of this but it doesn't matter now, does it?Everything was traced back to Riva. Riva!My seemingly innocent wife. Her sweet smile flashed at the back of my mind. How could she do this to me? I never once suspected her. Even now, with everything my men found against her, I still find it hard to believe.How could she do this to me?How? Why? Some of the bank transactio
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 209
YVONNEMy head is reeling. I stood behind the closed door, replaying everything that happened inside my head. To say I was dumbfounded is an understatement.I'm in love with you.I can still hear his husky voice and feel his warm breath fanning against the sensitive skin on my neck. Speechless after he said those words, I didn't even try to look at him, even though I could feel his glances while driving back to my unit.I don't know how to process it. It seemed unrealistic. Did he really say those words? Was I dreaming?I pinched my arm so hard to prove that I am awake. I groaned when pain hit me.Shit. It was real!"Aah!" I screamed so loud that I must have woken up the entire building!Damn it! I jumped into the daybed and pushed my face against a pillow, trying to muffle my screams against it.I'm losing my mind!How can he be in love with me? I can't believe this. He must be playing with me! But why would he lie about it?I rolled to my back and stared at the ceiling as if his fac
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 208
VLADIMIR"I promise I'll make it right."Her whole body became rigid in my arms when I held her. I know this sounds like an empty promise, but I meant it."I..." I took a deep breath. I turned her around to look at her. I wanted to see her face. I wanted her to see how genuine my feelings were."I'm in love with you," I told her while staring deep into her eyes. Her lips parted in shock. I had the strongest urge to ravish those lips, but this wasn't the time for that."Do you understand?" I asked when she didn't even blink.I cupped her face, pressing my forehead against her. I can hear her ragged breaths as if she was on the verge of a panic attack."I love you," I whispered. "But I need to make things right this time. I need to... end things with Riva so we can start on a clean slate."She remained dumbfounded. She was just staring at me as if I'd grown another head."Yvonne," I gently called her name. "Did you hear me?"She only nodded but still didn't say anything. I guess it was
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 207
YVONNE"Leave," even I was surprised at how my voice turned out full of conviction. I stared at the darkness in front of us.We were still in the middle of the road when he suddenly stopped the car.He chuckled humorlessly, probably from my audacity to give him an order like that. But I don't care anymore. I just need to do what I have to protect my heart from further breaking into pieces. Because if not me, nobody will."Stop playing with me," I said."I don't know what kind of game you are playing right now," I told him, my voice dripping with raw emotions. I didn't even try to hide how I really felt.I am confused and devastated. His mere presence is enough to fuck me in the head. Every time I see him around, it gives me a glimpse of hope. I don't want to. God knows I don't want to, but my stupid heart couldn't help but assume.Assume that he was here for me. Assume that he missed me. The more I see him, the more I expect him to talk to me and tell me he wants me back.It was pathe
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 206
VLADIMIR What was I thinking? I thought, staring at her as she obviously checked out everything in the room except me. How could I become so impulsive around her? I shouldn't have dragged her here in the pretense that I wanted to talk. I just wanted to be with her for a little longer and that's the only thing I could come up with when it seemed like she couldn't wait to get away from me. "What do we need to talk about?" she asked impatiently. I badly wanted to pull her closer, to wrap her in my arms and inhale her intoxicating scent to calm my shit down. But I stopped myself. As much as I wanted to confess to her, I wanted to settle everything first. I wanted to do it right this time. I should end things with Riva, before even thinking of taking her back. I owe it to both of them. What should I tell her though? My mind was blank. Fuck it. "What?" she muttered while looking at me with a puzzled expression on her face. It felt like I was saved by the bell when I heard a knock
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 205
YVONNEI chose a semi-formal emerald green dress. I took it from the rack and held it in front of me, imagining how I would look if I wore it."It suits you."I gasped audibly when I heard his voice behind me. I turned to look just to find him standing at the closet's entrance. I gulped when I caught his gaze lingering on my body.My cheeks heated up profusely. I can feel the temperature around us suddenly rising. I couldn't help but glance at the air conditioning unit in the room. It's turned off. It's definitely the reason why it's getting hotter here.I'm sure it had nothing to do with Vladimir leaning languidly against the doorframe, looking so damn... Fine..."Uhm, thanks," I murmured, fighting the urge to bite my lip. "I'll take this for the opening ceremony. I hope you won't mind."He looked around the closet. I noticed his jaw ticked when he must have realized that everything was still there."I don't care," he looked back at me. This time, he stared into my eyes intently. "Yo
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 204
YVONNE The silence that greeted me in the apartment was deafening. I suddenly wished I let Selene come with me again. I sighed as I plopped myself into the daybed. I stared at the ceiling as if it was interesting. I felt so exhausted after another day of pretending I was fine. I'm not. I even think I am on the brink of insanity. I'm barely holding on by a thread so as not to fall on the other side. I don't know what I want anymore. I want him gone when he's around, but my heart screams for him when he's not. Damn it. If that's not insane, then I don't know what else is! "Ugh!" I groaned loudly. I should seriously stop thinking about him! I harshly get out of bed to find something else to do to occupy my mind. I winced when I realized there was no food left. I was quite hungry because I had not eaten anything while in the shelter. I sighed. I had no choice but to go out. I can also drop by the store to buy some stocks. I just gathered my hair up into a messy bun, then grabbed
