Darkest Desires CHAPTER 18
My husband is a freaking billionaire!"Woah!" I exclaimed.Who would have thought that that grumpy man was a fucking real estate mogul?He owns different commercial and residential buildings in New York and across the whole state, including the one where we live. And they are not just normal buildings, most of their properties are either high-end or luxury. All of those are under the corporation that he built himself. He is the major stockholder and the current CEO.I knew he was wealthy but never thought it was to this extent! Aside from that, he also owns a chain of hotels and restaurants in and out of the country. The more I read about him, the more I get confused with the scope of his wealth and power.I gasped when I saw an article about our wedding. It has our picture together during that day. It was a candid shot. He was looking at me intently while I was smiling for the camera.I pursed my lips while staring at it. From a stranger's point of view, they could easily be fooled t

Am I a nymphomaniac?The thought brought shivers down my spine. If Vladimir didn't call me again, I would've remained rooted to where I stood."I'm coming," I yelled. I had to force myself to follow him to the dining room despite my mind being in turmoil.Is it really possible? How come I'd only felt it now?Well, probably because you're not getting any action. A small voice inside my head whispered.Maybe. Back when I was in the ring, I would have at least one or two clients a night. That was how active I was. I suddenly wanted to crawl out of my skin, thinking of all the men who touched me.I am fucking dirty. Filthy.And now... I could be a nymphomaniac. How fucked up can it be?My head is spinning with a hundred questions while eating. I couldn't taste the food, even though I had asked Cora to prepare something special.“I enrolled you in an etiquette class, didn’t I?” he queried after a while, pulling me out of my thoughts.“Uhm, yeah,” I muttered confusedly with my mouth still fu

What the fuck did just happen?My jaw dropped as I watched his retreating back. I stayed motionless on the table, propped on my elbows for a while. The fire he started within me seemed to be doused with ice-cold water in an instant. I can't believe he did it to me again. I thought we were past this stage after the intimate moment we shared during our honeymoon. Then why are we back to square one?"Ugh," I groaned while pushing myself up. I snatched my top while looking at all the dishes scattered on the floor. I winced. Cora spent the whole afternoon preparing these meals. I felt bad because I was the one who requested them. And now they're wasted.Vladimir hastily pushed them aside in the heat of the moment. I sighed.What's with him, really? One moment he acts like he wants me just as much as I want him. Then the next, he will drop me like a hot potato!"He's acting like a tease!" I hissed while starting to clean up the mess we made. I better do something to divert my attention or

"Is there any other doctor?" Vladimir stared at the doctor with a dark expression looming on his face.I looked at him wondering what caused the sudden change in his mood. He glanced at my foot. My gaze hovered over it as well. The doctor is still holding my ankle looking confused.Wait. Is he... Jealous?'Or maybe he's just in character,' the voice inside my head quickly countered. Well, that's more likely."We need a female doctor," Vladimir commanded."Uh, sure," the doctor confusedly answered before carefully placing my foot back on the bed. He left without saying another word.I raised an eyebrow at Vladimir."You scared the poor man," I whispered accusingly."Nobody touches what's mine," he coldly muttered under his breath. I didn't know whether I should feel scared or flattered. In the end, I just decided to ignore what he said thinking that he was just doing it for show.It didn't take long before the same doctor returned, causing the frown on Vladimir's forehead to deepen."

We kissed each other like there was no tomorrow. Our tongues fought, tangling and sucking each other off. Nobody wanted to back down. I clung to him as though he was my lifeline. He held the back of my head firmly, trying to dominate me.He slid his hardened tongue back into my mouth and pushed it in a movement that mimicked a movement his cock should be doing instead."Uhh," a moan escaped my throat in gratification.Damn. The burning sensation between my thighs intensified by the second. I couldn't take it anymore. I feel like I would die if he ever left me hanging once again!"Vladimir!" I yelped when his mouth moved to my neck and gently bit my sensitive skin. I threw my head back, my eyes rolled when he sucked my skin. His stubble grazing my skin added volts of sensation running down my body.Heat gushed between my thighs even though we barely just started. Fuck. He'd be the death of me!I started gyrating my hips, trying to ease the tension with his hardness but I felt nothing.

The woman is a Greek goddess who came down from Mount Olympus to graze the earth with her magnificent presence.I'm not even exaggerating!The corner of my lips trembled as my smile faltered. I was so confident since I saw myself earlier this evening until I exited the limousine. I was so ready to strut my stuff down the red carpet!But all my confidence shattered into tiny pieces when I saw her. She's wearing a champagne-colored gown that complemented her glowing bronze skin really well. Everything in her is so put together from her hair which is sleeked back into a low bun with a few stray strands framing her face and neck to her daring but exquisite gown.It showed a lot of skin but she was able to pull it off well. The deep v-neckline showed an ample amount of her full breasts but it didn't look trashy.She smiled at the man they were talking to before looking at Vladimir who nodded as if in agreement to whatever she said. I clenched my jaw while looking at them.I hate to admit i

If only looks could kill, she's probably already dropped dead on the floor. This woman ruined the whole evening for me. What I thought would be a night of fun and extravagance ended up being as stressful as hell! And I couldn't do anything but glare at her at every chance I could get. She's not aware of it though. She was so busy chatting with my husband!I don't even know why I am so affected. So what if they kept talking the whole time? What do I care if Vladimir seemed to have forgotten my existence?I secretly rolled my eyes while sipping my wine. I looked at the stage, pretending to be engrossed in the item they were auctioning at the moment. It's a rare piece of jewelry from the olden days. That's the only thing I heard about it because my ears were already focused on the two people beside me.They were talking about business. I don't know why but the language they were using sounded foreign to my ears! They're talking in English but I don't understand a single word. Damn it.Isn

"Touch me," I didn't know what made me say that but I will put the blame on the alcohol even though I knew I had long sobered up.His eyes darkened, not with desire but with rage. I should be scared for my life now but I wasn't. I just felt more frustrated than ever. Almost desperate..."Please," I whispered. My tone suddenly changed. "Touch me," I pleaded."What the hell is happening to you?!" he asked, disgust clearly written all over his face as he forcefully pulled his hand away from me.I wish I could answer him. I wish I knew what was wrong with me. I desperately want to know why my whole body is burning, almost trembling at the immense need surging through my veins.I want him to kiss me, to touch me... Make love with me...I feel like I would die if he wouldn't.He tried to get away from me once again but I didn't let him."Get your filthy hands off me," he growled. His cold voice echoed throughout the unit."Vladimir," I've never felt so pathetic but my worldly desires have ta

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 transacti

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

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
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 203
VLADIMIRI woke up with a heavy feeling on my chest. I pried my lids open just to find Riva sleeping soundly. Half of her body is almost draped on my chest. Her arms were tightly wrapped around me as if she was afraid to let me go.I sighed. I guess she has the right to feel this way. It's my fault. I haven't done anything to give her the assurance she needed.I can't even if I wanted to. Not after finally accepting how I truly felt.I let out a long sigh before gently untangling her from me. I was careful not to wake her up. I don't want another confrontation. Not after last night.I still feel emotionally drained from our conversation. Today, I just want to breathe without the emotional baggage that's been weighing down my shoulders for a while now."Is there any update?" I asked as soon as I arrived at the warehouse.Our operation is back on track, although I refused to deal with clients who turned their backs on me in exchange for a few dollars in savings."We still haven't found
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 202
YVONNEThe next morning, I woke up with a terrible headache. I already forgot most of what happened after finishing the bottle of tequila."Ugh," I grunted as I rolled out of bed. I barely slept last night but I still needed to wake up early to go to work. Dragging my feet to the bathroom, I went under the cold shower to wake my senses up.Selene was still sleeping soundly when I finished. I went to the kitchen in just my bathrobe to whip up a quick breakfast for us. To my dismay, my refrigerator was almost empty. I needed to go to the supermarket later. Luckily, I found a few strips of bacon in the freezer and still a few pieces of eggs left.I popped some bread into the toaster while I fry the bacon and eggs. I checked the pantry, waiting for the bacon to cook to take note of things I needed to restock.After I was done cooking, I set everything on the table and then proceeded to change into my work clothes. I pulled up a pair of stretchable pinstriped dress pants. Then I put on a s
